Bugs i've found:

PC versions:
- Release 1:
Right after elevating the green power stone, there's a "showdown" scene where you fight alongside the Amigos and shoot the bat-shadows. If you die on the second screen, there will be a hard crash with an Exception (DSI) Crash. You will lose your progress all the way back to your last saved checkpoint, which is a punishment if you were playing for long. I recommend you to exit the game on this screen, so it saves your checkpoint. After that just continue your game as usual.
- Release 3:
previous crash seems to be fixed, though it may or may not exit with an Exception (DSI) Crash as soon as you control Andy on the next game screen. Just happened to me once, could not reproduce it.
- Level 1, 5th Screen: destroy the top portion so the monsters get out, go back to the 4th screen. Now Andy and enemies shadows get rendered on the upper part of the screen too.
- Release 4:
- Load Game button inside the Options menu is broken, so you won't be able to choose any specific scene past Level One. Resume the game with the Play button / Current Game option. But! It will function correctly after you finish the game.
- I have this consistent DSI crash: my first two Assign Player profiles are finished, if i select the third and try to open Load Game inside the Options menu, it crashes.

- Release 6:
- All releases:
- On a CRT (480i), a portion of the upper part of the screen is being cut. The screen is also not correctly centered, it shifts from being almost at the right edge, then it centers again, this change happens whenever there is a "screen shaking" effect.
- On an LCD (480p), a portion of the upper part of the screen is being cut. The screen is also not correctly centered, it shifts from being almost at the right edge, then it centers again, this change happens whenever there is a "screen shaking" effect.
- scale_factor, scale_algorithm, gamma, fullscreen, and widescreen does not seem to affect anything yet.
- Level 1, get to screen 9, kill the shadows on the lower level, leave the one that pounds the ground. Walk to screen 10 at the right, with the green cave entrance. The screen will shift position every 2 seconds.
- Andy's sound effects/grunts sound really low compared to music and ambient.
- You can't enter Options inside the Options menu, so you will not be able to change difficulty or remap the controller.
- When you enter Options, there will be no background sound until you go into Show Cinematics and play one movie.

Updated to release 6:
Heart of Darkness Demo (V1.0) (French / English)
1.0 demos now finish correctly, with a slideshow of screenshots of posterior game levels and cinematics. Exits cleanly to HBC.

If you enter Projection without having played the game once, it crashes with Exception (DSI) occurred. Same if you play with a new profile that hasn't started the game. This happens only on the French version.

Heart of Darkness Demo (V1.2)
This demo now finishes correctly, with a slideshow of screenshots of posterior game levels and cinematics. Exits cleanly to HBC.

If you enter Show Cinematics without having played the game once, it crashes with Exception (DSI) occurred. Same if you play with a new profile that hasn't started the game.

Heart of Darkness (Mini-Game V1.3 Kellogg's) (French / English)
This demo now finishes correctly, with a slideshow of screenshots of posterior game levels and cinematics. Exits cleanly to HBC.

If you enter Show Cinematics / Projection without having played the game once, it crashes with Exception (DSI) occurred. Same if you play with a new profile that hasn't started the game. Happens on both languages versions.

Heart of Darkness (Coca Cola Edition)
This demo is now fully finishable. Sound buzzing after ending Level 2 and watching the cutscene. The game will restart in the middle of Level 2, and Andy will be "swimming" in the air, if you dive to the last screen, it crashes with Exception (DSI) occurred.

Heart of Darkness (PlayStation Demo)
Exits cleanly to HBC if you manage to finish the demo.

All PSX versions:
- No backgrounds
- No menus.
- You need PC version's HOD.PAF for the videos.

Wii port changes i could spot:
* Release 3:
- Wii Classic Controller support.
- Wii U Pro Controller support.
- Proper Wiimote controller support, though the mappings are not optimal.
* Release 4:
- Finishing v1.0 demo datafiles is now possible.
- Shadows glitch on screen 5 are fixed.
- Demos now exit instead of erroring out when completing them.
* Release 5:
- Load Game button inside the Options menu works now, so you will be able to pick any scene.
* Release 6:
- Linked with WiiDRC for Wii U.
- Fixed out of bounds access with completed game state.

Sonic Mania
(also works for Sonic 1, Sonic 2, and Sonic CD)
(original port by Mefiresu)

​

Controller support:

• Gamecube controller.
• Wiimote.
• Wiimotion Plus.
• Wiimote+Nunchuk.
• Wii Classic Controller.
• Wii U Pro Controller.

I've made some icons for your use in The Homebrew Channel, as these are not distributed with them.

• Sonic The Hedgehog: working gameplay with Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Sonic and Tails, Amy, Amy and Tails. (Knuckles and Tails is not possible)
• Sonic The Hedgehog 2: working gameplay with Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Sonic and Tails, Knuckles and Tails, Amy, Amy and Tails. 2 Players Vs. mode doesn't work yet. It will get stuck in a black screen after picking characters and starting a round.
• Sonic CD: working gameplay with Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy. (DO NOT try any partner combination with Tails)

NOTES:
Each game Data.rsdk must reside inside its own folder at the root of the SD/USB device:
- Sonic The Hedgehog: RSDKv5/Sonic1
- Sonic The Hedgehog 2: RSDKv5/Sonic2
- Sonic CD: RSDKv5/SonicCD
- Sonic Mania: RSDKv5/Mania

Mods, as it should be logical, go into its own folder:
RSDKv5/Sonic1/mods
RSDKv5/Sonic2/mods
RSDKv5/SonicCD/mods
RSDKv5/Mania/mods
And a line added to the modconfig.ini file that resides inside, with same name of the mod folder.

To have music and sound effects playing in Sonic 1-2-CD, you will need to repack them into its respective rsdk files. This is the guide you should read if you are going to attempt integrating sound and music to use with the RSDKv5 engine.

If you are having issues when repacking the Data.rsdk (it can be a pain when generating a valid file) you can skip the step and just copy the extracted Bytecode/Data folders into its correct RSDKv5 folders.

This tip is PURE GOLD: I highly encourage you to use the following menu mods for Sonic, Sonic 2, and Sonic CD, as they will allow you to select the alternate characters and use other features similar to the fully featured game, without having to go through the Debug menu. The only important bug that I encountered on the Wii is that you can't use the Settings/Option button within Sonic and Sonic 2 menus.

Usage instructions:
Read the changelog.

Bugs and tested features:

Spoiler

Bugs i've found:
* Sonic The Hedgehog (Origins Plus)

• Seems to soft-crash if you start a new game after losing all your lives. Press home to exit the app.

* Sonic The Hedgehog 2 (Origins Plus)

• Versus mode doesn't work yet. It will get stuck in a black screen after picking characters and starting a round.

* Sonic The Hedgehog 3 (Origins Plus)

• Not supposed to be working as it is not decompiled yet, but I tried it anyway just because. It will hang on the initial SEGA screen.

* Sonic CD (Origins Plus)

• None that I could find yet, haven't played the game from start to finish.

* Sonic Mania (Standard and Plus, Steam version)

• Haven't yet played the game from start to finish with the latest build. Tested modes: Mean Bean (vs. CPU, vs. 2P), Staff Credits, Competition, Time Attack, Encore Mode, Mania Mode.

Untested: videos that are supposed to play on Sonic CD / Sonic Mania (like the intro), and mods in Sonic 1-2-CD.

Thanks for your updates on these forgotten ports! I will test them all

Thanks for your updates on these forgotten ports! I will test them all

Enjoy! BTW, i'll probably tag you later to test the WiiSXRX wiiflow patch, since you're the resident Wiiflow expert.

 

[Tetsuo Shima]

Thanks! I'm glad you want to work on it

 

[JuanMena]

Descent can be used with Gamecube controllers?

 

[Alexander1970]

Hello.

Enjoy! ..... since you're the resident Wiiflow expert.

Unfortunately,most Users only talk/use USBLoader GX and/or Configurable USBLoader..
Myself also comes very late to WiiFlow (Lite) because of this "Cliche".
I think,WiiFlow deserves the same Status,Respect and "Usage" like them because the Progress in Developing with the last Versions was impressive and awesome.

Plus - there are only very few "Issues" with "certain" USB Devices.

Thank you.

 

[Tetsuo Shima]

Hey @niuus
I've tested Tyrian and Descent from USB
Tyrian is working (including the Classic Controller, but not by default, I had to map the keys). However, it works great!

Edit: Descent is working good from HBC, but it's giving me a black screen when booting from Wiiflow. I've used DESCENT.HOG and DESCENT.PIG from the GOG version (v1.4a), including the mp3 tracks.
The game files are in usb:/apps/descent, the mp3 files are in usb:/apps/descent/music and they are renamed following the readme file.

Hi Tetsuo. Much more details would be good for everyone: the last official 1.10 release worked with Wiiflow? (both on SD and USB). Is that black screen only happening with USB? Did you try only one device or did you use another one just in case? Is Descent 1.5 the same?

I tried version 1.10 on Wiiflow and the result was the same, black screen, both via USB and SD. https://gbatemp.net/threads/the-gre...l-for-adventurers.563575/page-10#post-9118174

The black screen happens with SD and USB. I still have to try with the official 1.10 release.
I'll also try to update Descent to 1.5

 

[The Real Jdbye]

Tyrian is excellent. Quite possibly my favorite game from the DOS era. Although Warcraft is excellent too.

Then probably the code for wiiflow compatibility was never there. I wouldn't be surprised, i don't think Wiiflow has that many years around, or at least it wasn't originally made to load anything other than Wii games? I remember the best game loader at that time was CFG USB Loader, updated and packed with features! Haven't used Wii loaders since 2013, i think.

Tyrian is excellent. Quite possibly my favorite game from the DOS era. Although Warcraft is excellent too.

It is really good, yes. Not a game that i played back then, but i gave it a try with this Wii port, great schmup.

Descent can be used with Gamecube controllers?

Nope, Wiimote+Nunchuk or Wii Classic Controller (and partially WUPC).

This, or maybe it needs a particular arguments line in the plugin .ini (the file that tells Wiiflow how to launch a particular app)
For example, the great majority of times it's:
arguments={device}:/{path}/|{name}

but some apps require slightly different arguments, like DosboxWii:
arguments=-conf|{device}:/{path}/{name}
or very different ones, like for Quake:
arguments={device}:/roms/quake/q1|-game|{device}:/{path}|-listen|4

Maybe descent needs a particular way to be launched and not the "standard" {device}:/{path}/|{name}.

edit: v1.10 not working too as plugin

Can wiiflow launch like a normal homebrew app?

 

[Tetsuo Shima]

Can wiiflow launch like a normal homebrew app?

No. Same black screen. Only works from the hbc

 

[fledge68]

No. Same black screen. Only works from the hbc

Then somethings wrong with wiiflows homebrew app boot. I bet usb loader can boot it just fine . ill look into it.
