So did requiem abandon this thread or what?

No. I just want to try if i can write some kind of an IOS patcher. If i would succeed, requiem would have less work to do. These are my intentions about this.

QUOTE(wolffangalchemist @ Nov 27 2008, 02:52 PM) anyone got a compiled r60 .dol?

The SoftChip loader is still pre-alpha, if you want to get the latest updates as fast as possible, you have to download the latest sources yourself and compile it. If you don't know how to do this, take a look at the Windows Build Guide here: http://wiki.softchip-mod.com/index.php/Guides

I've been working on setting up a build environment in Ubuntu.
if you know of a good clear guide for setting it up in Ubuntu let me know, till i get this working i have to count on the kindness of ppl on GBAtemp with a build environment already set up.
 
Arm wrote a guide for Linux, look at the Guides page for it. Oh, there's no guide on how to get the newest version of libogc in the Linux Guide, you can try translate this part form the Windows Guide to Linux, shouldn't be too difficult.

thanks i will get right on that.

Edit:followed the guide to the very letter but to no avail.
i get this error
Code:
devkitPPC.sh: 19: source: not found
while it is building the devkit seems to finish building though cuz all the files are there.

then i get this error
Code:
wolffangalchemist@wolffangalchemist-desktop:~$ cd wii-softchip-read-only/loader
wolffangalchemist@wolffangalchemist-desktop:~/wii-softchip-read-only/loader$ make
Makefile:10: /Desktop/devkitPRO/devkitPPC/wii_rules: No such file or directory
make: *** No rule to make target `/Desktop/devkitPRO/devkitPPC/wii_rules'.ÂÂStop.
when trying to make the .dol file.

Edit: ok fixed that by editing the "~/.bashrc" file the directory was wrong.
but now i get this errorCODEwolffangalchemist@wolffangalchemist-desktop:~/wii-softchip-read-only/loader$ make

type set DEVKITPPC "path" and type you patch of the devkitppc folder like thiw (windows) set DEVKITPPC c:/DevkitPro/DevkitPPC



for the other guy : no it is not implemented

Just tested it and it works, thanks.

Also, is this supposed to have the 249 fix with HoD2, Red Steel, and the other games that crashed? Because I can't get Red Steel or HoD2 to run.
no. ios249 patching is not integrated in r60.

Yeah. Look in the ~/.bashrc

The libogc folder should have the name "libogc".

It should have:
Code:
export DEVKITPRO=/home/wolffangalchemist/devkitPro
export DEVKITPPC=$DEVKITPRO/devkitPPC
ok so i edited it to the directory i installed it to(my home folder cuz my Desktop is already cluttered enough)
here is what i edited ~/.bashrc to
Code:
export DEVKITPRO=/home/wolffangalchemist/.DevkitPro
export DEVKITPPC=$DEVKITPRO/devkitPPC
and thanks for the help that fixed it!
