Hacking [Release] libWiiSharp

[Leathl]

libWiiSharp is a Wii related .NET (2.0+) library.
It can be used with any .NET language to easily develop Wii related applications.

All public functions are documented and most should be pretty self-explanatory.
There are also some example applications that use libWiiSharp included.

Nice work! I wonder when I'll use these image & u8 functions in my programs... With these tools for example I can easily create an automated c64 vc injector...

If I may make a suggestion (just from perusing a few of the files): implement Stream support. Everything seems to work with strings (and the library opens the file) or byte arrays, and that's kind of limiting--you need to extract everything to work on it or you need big chunks of memory.

 

[Leathl]

Next release will have the possibility to get streams passed.

Next release will have the possibility to get streams passed.

I have a .net library that I've been working on that might intersect with this. I'm looking at releasing something this week, because I have an app that I want to get out. I'll give you a shout afterwards and we can chat.

Great work, once again, Leathl!

I was messing around with the WAD and U8 Un/Packers and the TPL converter and I'm having a couple issues with the TPL converter. I first used it to convert "nand.tpl" into "nand1.png" and "nand2.png" from the Red Steel 2 ISO, and it worked, but then I moved onto "BatteryCritical.tpl" and it gave me this error:

"Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection.
Parameter name: index."

If I keep trying TPLs after opening the first one successfully, it always gives that error. If I close the TPL converter and then reopen it and just try any other TPLs first, such as any other TPLs on the Red Steel 2 ISO or TPLs in an MPlayer CE WAD I had, it gives me this error:

"Object reference not set to an instance of an object"

It's not a big deal, considering I was just messing around with stuff, but I figured it might help you sort it out in some way.

I'll debug it later.

Edit: Only a little bug in the TplConverter Example code, doesn't affect libWiiSharp.
