Yes, while injecting the script will ask you if you want to enable 4:3. Type n for no

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------


I think I have it on my notebook, will check tomorrow

Ok tried this a few times, did not see anywhere where it asked any questions about 4:3 or any questions at all actually. Is this at the very beginning because its hard to read everything it's saying

Is not your script what's broken, I just changed my boot.dol from the latest 5.466 Nintendont broke the WiiVC Injects! I just replaced it for the build on September 24 and that works well with the injects! maybe @FIX94 want to take a look

Your Windows name has a very odd cent character in it, I wonder if that's breaking pathing for WIT. "EduardoArroy¢"

Try moving the script folder to the C:\ drive root possibly?

Dumb questions:

1. How do I reliably get multi-disc games working with this utility?
2. Can I run multiple instances of this at once in different folders given its seemingly primarily single-threaded nature?
3. Is there anything similar to and as easy as this for other systems that VC covers?

I got this log, and I couldn't get the game converted again. :(

So I tried different things for more classic controller detection and while it didnt work out as I wanted to at least there is a way now for more compatibility.
Firstly, new nfs2iso2nfs version.
added -instantcc and -nocc options
https://mega.nz/#!A84FRDCL!NxDPa7jrLOF6ytxvFWDonLU5o_kjof9I3nLYk7OCXRI
Basically -instantcc is required for titles that do their check very early (N64 VC for example) and will not work if they dont immediately get a message something is connected.
-nocc is the complete opposite and will never send out that anything is connected, this may be useful for titles that will not work if anything is "attached" to the wiimote.
Now the ugly part of this is for titles that even with -instantcc wont detect the classic controller, those most likely use an older wii SDK with a different detection method that the fw.img cannot handle properly. For that, you will have to pre-patch your game with this:
https://github.com/FIX94/GetExtTypePatcher
Make sure to read its readme. Oh and in case you dont know, for channels you can use something like wii.cs tools (or in command line/batch use, sharpii is a thing) to extract and repack its wad. for wii isos, just use something like wit.
Also, I've added a new file to the wii vc channel booter, forcing 4 by 3.
https://github.com/FIX94/wiivc_chan_booter/releases/tag/v1.0
Could be useful for titles that are 4:3 only and you dont want them to be stretched out.

Is there a wiki started for what games need what switches? There seem to be a lot of switches now; it'd be awesome to have a game profiles Wiki/GitHub like Cemu which has the most compatible switches for each game.

The latest version for NINTENDONT is broken for WiiVC Injects , 5.466 I think it is, please check on it.

The script first asks for name, publisher, autoboot and then 4:3

name your disc1 iso to game.gcm and disc2 iso to disc2.gcm

With previous injects? My injects won't work with the latest version, but work with 5.464
Sure you haven't missed anything or made any mistakes? Ive seen you post a few times now saying things are broken, Only to find out you made a error on your side.

It's black screen, tried 5 times different versions of the script, everything got fixed only when I downgraded so it must be Nintendont, I will try the latest later today again.

I'm not new, I've been doing this since the first release... the only thing I did was to update all the programs. Being Nintendont downgrade the only thing that fixed it.

    But it's a dead end

    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game

    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

    Some temporary storage

    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)
    +1
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)
