Hacking RawkSD

[Rebes]

I having lag in some notes with drum when playing through RiiFS. More frequently with songs from Guitar Hero than with customs. No problem with other instruments.

I'm having a related issue, I think. I notice my drums losing sync with the Wii -- blue light flashes and I miss a bunch of notes. It happens very often when I play through RiiFS (every 15-20s), and I found it less frequent (every 30s) when I play off the SD card. Finally, I found that if I power off the N router, it almost never happens when playing off the SD card (once per song).

I switched out my new wireless router (Trendnet TEW-639GR 300Mbps N) to my old one (old Belkin 7230v2 54G), and *almost*
all of the sync problems with the drums go away when playing over RiiFS - I can play over RiiFS, and it only loses sync once per song (or so).

Experimenting, I found that just having the N router turned on and in use (by some other computer) causes the drums to lose sync. I haven't tried (yet), but I suspect I'd see this happening when playing RB2 directly w/o RawkSD.

Anyone else seeing interference from an N router?

That's pretty strange... I haven't actually tried turning off the wireless N router... Or trying to go through another router... I have a purely wireless G router on the network too that I could try... I don't seem to have the issue when I play from USB or SD though. Is it possible it's the Wii's wifi system having trouble with the wireless N router, causing it to eat up CPU periodically? I wonder if you try turning off the network connection on the Wii and playing from SD or USB, would you see the issue then? Also, are you seeing the sync issue only on drums? It seems to be just drums for me... when I try the guitar, it works fine...

One question, if I'm running DarkCorp will this version of RawkSD work?

No. It requires an unpatched IOS37, and you need a legitimate disc.

But IOS37 don't read sdhc, and don't read usb hdd, if ios37 is unpatched, why RawkSD works with sdhc and usb hdd?, if rawksd don't work with cios249 or cios222 why can make this?

One moth ago i can play with my dvd RB2, i don't have darkcorp, but since i play Rawksd first time i can't play with my original dvd RB2, when i go to play with it, i can read a message with "press eject, error detect... bla bla .... " i don't understand.

Because Riivolution uses IOS37.

I'm still having problems installing any Customs made for Guitar Hero. Any one else?

When Ripping GHWT from my wii. All the songs and artists are in caps and there is no pack name set. It installs fine, but I cannot find the songs from GHWT with the other ones. I also cannot add a pack name, as it is greyed out as are most of the other options. Any solutions known?

irhxcbcziuzxs:
In the Rawksd PC folder, check the subfolder with the import xml files.
I know that GH3 has a problem where the double dot in the letter "O" in "Blue Oyster Cult", causes Rawksd to igonore the file and not apply the metadata to that game's song.
There may be a similar problem with GHWT. Find the xml file for it and look for any suspicious characters. If you find any, change it to something more standard.

When I change the default settings on the Rawksd Wii app, the changes are lost next time I open the app.

Where are these settings supposed to be stored?

I guess support for GH Warriors of Rock is not finalized in the current public beta ? The usage guide lists it as supported, but the Wii app does not recognize my disk. I have not tried making an ISO and trying to import from the PC app, however (mainly because I'm clueless about how to make an ISO from a Wii disc...)

The Wii app will not rip it. The PC app supports an ISO of it.

 

[JMFangio]

Thanks. I'll look around for pointers on how to make an ISO, then.

SuperDump or CleanRip will do the trick.

question about the RawkSD pc software. when importing songs, it puts the default RawkSD cover for some of the RB track packs and the GH games. I'm assuming I can get them from one of the many WiiTDB downloads. But does the size/shape matter?

Can't do custom album art, it'll crash the game/the program doesn't support it.

A question to the creators of RawkSD, is there a possible chance of allowing importing of songs from Rock Band 3 and allowing Legaly purchased Rock Band 3 DLC to work on RawkSD? I myself, like the on disc setlist and the new DLC (Billy Joel, The Doors and Beegee's). If working on Rock Band 3 is out of the question, are you willing to do this or is it possible?

its possible to have customs on rb3 but i don't think rawksd is going to support it. i have tried and made a few customs by replacing song audio from other rb songs but i got stuck at making my own custom bik/mogg. it's doable but it's not really easy.

If I take my sdhc card with rawksd on it, and rockband 2 disc over to a friends house, can I use it on my friends hacked wii or will I have to do everything from scratch on his?

No. There's a new stem (keys) as well as different MIDI/charting standards that aren't compatible with Rock Band 2.

Should be able to, though your legitimate DLC will not be playable.
