Hacking Sciifii v4

[arasium]

Hello,

Sciifii V4 is here. In this version, we have modified the sciifii engine in order to add some new tasks, remove useless ones and make the xml a bit more simple.

Here is the new elements of sciifii engine:

• You can specify a region on each step in order to prevent step execution based on wii region
• SystemUpdater task removed. Now we are using CompositeInstaller and the new region option
• MemoryPatcher task added in order to use the AHBPROT with the new HBC (ta da da, one, two three...

)
• Identification has know his own task
• You can skip some exceptions (ie -1035), but you should just use this for debug purpose

The config.xml has been updated (ie compatible HBC 4.3 and AHBPROT, firm update to 4.3 etc...)

And now, sciifii and the downloader are open source

You can find the downloads and donation links on our website: http://www.teamwiigen.fr.cr

You can also check libwiisys SVN, it has been updated during the sciifii release.

Next step: an ui library (an event oriented one, like in dotNet or Java)

Lovely! I actually thought you stopped making new versions. I was wrong

 

[cwstjdenobs]

Your SVN links start with htpp

I've an other project to do, so sciifii wasn't my priority

Thx, it's corrected now.

Feel free to send us remarks/patch at our mail (first post edited for the mail)

Hehe, better safe then sorry

 

[megazig]

awesome second release.

one issue though. Title.h needs the event/*.h changed to Event/*.h and security/*.h changed to Security/*.h

once that's done and fastedelegate.h is added, it's compiling wonderfully. I'll check what updates you've done compared to things I mod'd and see what's left

 

[terminal_illness]

awesome, scifii kicks ass.

 

[megazig]

oh, and all #includes for need to be in the sciifii stuff

edit: looks like the whole thing needs lots of case cleanup

 

[arasium]

?! I haven't any pb with the casing...
Perhaps you are on Linux and on Linux, file path are case sensitive.

Nevermind, it's a good point and we will check this.

Same there, we never add any problems with that

Glad you guys love it

 

[megazig]

yes, it's a linux issue. paths are case sensitive. since you code case sensitive, you might as well use case sensitive paths too.

Makefile has an issue for linux too, but it was an easy workaround. you can add Linux to the $(SystemName) ifeq. since we can install rsync to function as MacOS.

again, really nice work.

 

[Slimmmmmm]

Great stuff.

The link for the pdf seems to be down, but the pdf is included with the download.
The source I'm sure will be good fun to play around with.

 

[arasium]

I will check the links (perhaps it's MU that fails).

I will also add the PC app open source (thx Slimmmm for your pm) and i will update the SVN in order to correct the casing.

 

[arasium]

Sciifii downloader (PC application) SVN added to our website.

PS: sorry but our host as changed their DNS server. So our website wasn't available for two day.

 

[Teton]

i think arasium adapted the path for linux

 

[arasium]

Indeed. But not commited in the open source repositories.

the ver. 4 hangs up when executed with hbc

and

can i use the TBR function again?

 

[arasium]

There is an issue if you don't have your wii connected to the network. But this is an HBC issue.
Since 1.0.7, hbc launch a asynchronous call to the wii in order to detect the network. The IOS58 take a long time to respond if no network connection detected. The problem is that the HBC doesn't cancel this asynchronous call before launching a homebrew.
The solution is to wait 1 minute on the HBC to be sure that the wii has answered (and the asynchronous call is terminated).

For the Tbr its useless now.
