Super Mario Galaxy controller patch issues.

Has anyone gotten this to work on Wii hardware without the Wii remote being connected?
I want to use the GC controller only but it won't work. Using the patcher on the game causes it to crash back to the homebrew channel when using usb loader gx.
The codes for using the gamecube controller won't work as-is. I tried using the riivolution patches on riftwii and it won't work either.

The patched disc image works on Dolphin but still:

1. It requires the wiimote and possibly the classic controller to be connected.
2. I want to use this on real hardware, not Dolphin.

If it helps to know, my disc images were converted from wbfs (ripped using USB Loader GX) to ISO and then patched with the galaxy patcher tool and then trimmed back to .iso with Wii Scrubber.

Edit: The patched game does boot on riftwii but has the same issue. The game wants the wiimote and nunchuck connected.

(Hopefully also hacks can be made to play Skyward Sword with a GC controller or maybe at least a pro controller using the switch versions control mapping to use on the Wii U's vwii)

Edit: Thank you very much @quatric for taking the time to read this post and for updating the Mario Galaxy 1 and 2 patches to work on hardware. Much appreciated.

Update: The patched disc image of Super Mario Galxay still freezes on USB Loader GX. I got a non-patched iso working on riftwi with riivolution patch. I was unaware the classic controller option was needed for the gc controller to be usable.

sorry but your post is quite unclear.

DId you manage to get Mario galaxy to work on Wii console ONLY using the gc controller? if so, how?

I tried the above github link and tried to patch it through Riivolution but it crashes during the beginning of the process. so i dont know to apply that patch.

the classic control patch by Super Hackio doesnt work either, The file does get patched via Riivolution but when i Boot it, it still requires wiimote and nunchuk. It also failed with txt/gct activation on ocarina options

It looks like they already got it working. I updated it yesterday.

@Vetus_Mundi I wish you PM'ed me about this, as I just saw this now. A lot of the controller patches are WIP.

@quatric My apologies. Concerning any other patch issues I will.

@f14389c Yes. I used the the updated revolution patches with the loader called riftwii. It works just fine with that. Make sure to also enable the classic controller patches.

but how you patch the wbfs file? I tried with Riivolution iso builder but it crashes everytime. I used the 1.2 updated riivolution patch, It starts the process then after 1 sec the msdos screen disappears (while with other patches it works)

There is a ISO patcher in the releases, you don't need Riivolution ISO Builder.

I patched the ISO with the latest version from the wii patches on github and it freezes with me on usb loader gx. The rl patches worked.

I used it via riftwii and it works perferctly! thank you all!
btw, during the game is there a way to come back to the main menu without resetting the console?

Some of my patches let you do it while pressing Z on the GameCube controller.

just wanted to inform you that your patch in gecko txt format doesnt load in USB LOADER GX, and your riivolution patch for sm galaxy 2 leads to black screen and the game doesnt start

I'm very busy with working at multiple projects at once, but I'll get to this one later
