Homebrew [RELEASE] Wii-DOOM / Wii-HERETIC / Wii-HEXEN / Wii-STRIFE (ALL-IN-ONE) *PROPER*

[TheDimensioner]

I can't find a service manual online for it. The original remote is dead too.

I don't think I'd want to risk messing up the tv anyway. Hopefully something can be added to the ports so that overscan isn't an issue. An option to shift the text messages down one line would be enough, for example.

Yeah, that's the tough part about CRT's XD. If you want them to look perfect, you have to dig deep into their guts so that the image looks right for your game console. I have 4 sets here at home: 14", 21" and two 29", aside from 2 17" CRT PC monitors. Most are LG branded, which are easy to enter the service menu, simply by pressing "MENU" on both the remote and the set at the same time. And luckily, one remote works on them all.

Sorry to bump, but does anyone have links to the updated doom/heretic/hexen releases? The last 3 links on the first post seem to be invalid now.

Homebrew browser has the latest versions.

 

[Tetsuo Shima]

All links are still working for me. Try with a different browser

Does anyone know what arguments should be used to start games from this great port via wiiflow?

None.
There is no support for args / Wiiflow.

Thanks for answering. I have one last question, I couldn't use the autoloading function (https://www.chocolate-doom.org/wiki/index.php/Autoloading), wasn't it implemented in your port?

I don't think so.
I can't tell for sure but I can definitely tell that I haven't been working on these ports for years now...

Nice, someone bumped the topic. I didn't dare doing it, as I have a (probably) silly question.

First, the port is awesome, everything running flawlessly (WiiDoom here).

Using .ogg files works like a charm too (converted to 32Khz), but it seems loading any pwad disables the ogg feature (the setting reverts to opl, and the .mus files are read instead).

Is it the normal behaviour? (I suppose to, as the iwad is considered as modified when loading any pwad alongside, therefore reading ogg files is not possible anymore?)

That was the silly question. ^^

PS: the only thing missing is a button setting for "Toggle Automap Follow ON/OFF" (F key on PC). I would like to bind it to D-Pad Up (for example), so I could still pan the automap and/or moving when needed (currently, I turn off the Follow mode in the game settings to be able to pan the automap, but then I can't move on it).
But that's a nitpicky problem. Not a big deal. But still.

Thanks again for this great app!

I cannot get Heretic and Hexen to work with your version. It complains about the RESOURCE PWAD ("psp....wad") that is missing. Doom is working fine.

I did a Fresh install and still the same happens. If I resinstall original port of those games, they work as expected.

Please note than I am on vWii.

Any Idea ? (folders, file names, "psp....wad"... are untouched and are in the same place as your archive).

Wii hexen is not working for me I use SD and I only have the hexen 1.1 wad at my disposal it always crashes past the wad select at a black screen with the disk led being dim and I tried to leave it I even left it for a weekend nothing at all

 

[TheFVguy]

Do I still need a classic controller?
Everything seems to work, but my gamecube or my wii controller doesn't work with navigating the app.

 

[uberwolf6688]

I can echo those above that say Heretic and Hexen do not work. Newest versions complain about the PSP wad file being missing. I was able to get Heretic to work by downloading an older version, but Hexen no matter what will not start. Disc drive lights up blue and it does nothing.

We need this ported to the NDS for slot-1 cards without relying on slot 2 cards.

Hey I'm interested in adding a little work on the Doom app so that people who aren't as tech-literate can boot into the game automatically just by clicking the app. Might add Gamecube controller support too.

Is the source code available for these anywhere?

RetroArch's PrBoom does just that, just load any Doom.wad and it'll load as long as it's compatible within the Wii's memory limit. It supports GameCube controller right away, and you can customize inputs within RetroArch's settings.

It would be great
