Decided that I might as well release a beta version of my Virtual Console Creator program. Thanks to @lordelan for initial tests and feedback.
The main function of this is to easily create a VC game, via ROM injection/replacement, that is ready to drag-and-drop onto the SD card and play with Loadiine.
What works:
- NES (.nes) ROM injection
- SNES (.sfc) ROM injection
- N64 (.n64, .z64) ROM replacement
- NDS (.nds, .srl) ROM replacement
- Icons, backgrounds, and 3D covers created for Loadiine (get the 2D flat PNG from thecoverproject.net)
- Tool tips in the statusbar to give info and guide through the process
What doesn't work (but is planned... eventually):
- Configuration options (to change resolution of NES/SNES, default view of NDS, etc)
- Injecting NTSC ROMs into PAL, or vice versa
- SNES .smc files don't work, but should be easy enough to implement (just an additional header to remove?)
- GBA (.gba) ROM injection
- GB (.gb) ROM injection into GBA via Goomba Color
- SMS (.sms) ROM injection into GBA via PocketSMS
- TGX/PCE (.pce) ROM injection/replacement
What needs testing:
- PAL and JAP ROM replacement probably doesn't work
- Try to replicate tests from the compatibility wikis. Report if the wiki says it works and it doesn't with VCC!
- Try games not on the compatibility wiki! If you get a black screen, don't assume the game isn't compatible.. it might be my fault. If it fails, please report what ROM and base you used, and what region they both are.
- Other bugs?
Use for reference:
VC SNES Injection Compatibility Wiki
VC N64 Injection Compatibility Wiki
VC NDS Injection Compatibility Wiki
Requirements:
- Windows or a way to run exe's
- .NET Framework 4.5.2
- Your own ROMs and official base games named with [ID6]
- Move the [ID6].png from the created game folder to SD:\wiiu\apps\loadiine_gx2\covers3d\
Optional (place in the Resources folder created at start up):
- Icons with a resolution in a multiple of 128x128. (256x256, 512x512, etc)
- Background images (1280x270)
- Cover images for 3D covers (download from thecoverproject.net)
Release Info:
v0.4.1 - Fixes bug if changing Base Games folder
Downloads:
VCC v0.4.1 by fiveighteen (extract to it's own folder)
