Maybe you have it displaying in PAL on an NTSC TV? I think that makes it black and white... Check to make sure that it's displaying in NTSC (try Force NTSC).

Just like what Hozu was saying, if you are using a PAL version of a game on an NTSC TV you will experience you screen either being black and white or doing other random stuff. Just make sure you switch on "Force NTSC" on your USB/Loader settings and you should be good to go.

If you have an NTSC TV I would recommend always trying to get the NTSC and not the PAL version of the game if you can help it

I have a question. I have a NTSC TV, and I grabbed the PAL version of Colors. It was out before the NTSC version and I just never want back to grab it.

Anyways, the PAL version worked perfectly on mine without having to mess with any settings. Why do some have to mess with settings why others don't?

xP this has to be a joke
Anyway when i have black and white problems i mess around with the TV display stuff.
If the Wii Menu is in colour you have to mess around with the wii settings.

Some TV's can handle the PAL signal, others can't. Also I think it's only an issue if you dont use component cables, but not 100% sure on that.

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar

    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
