No. And that's not a bug.
This ruined everything.

if you are too cheap to spend 30-40 buck for an original disk, you might want to ask your mommy to borrow the money. What Aaron created is amazing and also on his own time. What about just saying thanks

No DLC is different, and this doesn’t redirect downloads at all.

You could use this to play custom tracks by replacing existing ones. In any case, stick with RawkSD 2 for now. Rawk 3 will be coming whenever they get enough time to work on it.

There won't be one. Aaron does not want to support piracy, and while there are a small amount of people who use USB loaders for a legitimate reason (and also own the games), there sadly isn't a way to allow it only for them.

Aaron`: Someone tell Zolga next time that Ocarina is tricky and probably requires a dev to set it up properly. Riivolution just has the capability to do it, but that page/XML was made as a guideline rather than something that will probably just work.

Thank you Aaron and Tempus, I guess I'll stop trying to get it to work.
*sigh* ah well, I'll still use this for MKWii and NCONR3.

I didn't say that Aaron should be the one who would make that mod.
Someone else could.

This ruins things for a lot of people. I install my retail games to my hard drive and play them via USB loader because it is much more convenient.

Then why don't you just replace the files on the .iso?
It isn't that hard...

they'd have to code it from scratch. Or somehow steal the source. lol

And this doesn't work in SNEEK, I read? Oh well...

It's just as illegal for copyright laws to modify/distribute mods of a retail game, as it is to run pirate backups.
Get off your pedestal and just realize that its all frowned upon and you're not doing the right thing by "blocking" usb backups.
Plus he probably just couldn't implement the usb loading anyway.

And here it comes...

Listen, what they're distributing is essentially patch files for games. While I don't know if any court has tried it, I'm pretty sure international copyright laws protect the user to modify their copy of the product as they wish as long as they don't distribute any of the original product.

This is pretty much on par with mods for PC games.

Whenever I try to load NSMB Wii on this, it just says "Disc Read Error". But it works just fine from GeckoOS.

AerialX, you are the King.

Works beautifully with Mario Kart Wii, no problem. Many thanks for yours and everyone else who contributed's hard work

so the editor doesn't come with any textures? and/or no mods make use of copy-written logo's...
and again, he probably just couldn't implement the usb loading functionality anyway.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot

    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
