Hacking TroyTheZombie's Animated Channel Wads

[Solecist]

ok...i have problems with some forwarders too... the same previously mentioned and others... the GC backup loader never worked. After installing your Usb Loader Gx Forwarder my original dont work. ..and neither urs.
The Standard of the forwarders are very cool, but i think the images have MUCH blur and the loading logo.....could be a more simpler loading image and having "Loading" little word ....

Anyway...u have much effort into this, so, congrats.

Then, upload again the results in one pack....its a good ideia cause most of us use them all, i think...

 

[Big Kong Boss]

These channels are of superior work. I have no complaints

 

[Turrican77]

I get the banner, then choose start and I get the load screen but then just black and it kills my wiimote and I have to do a hard reset. I am using a standard SD card and I do have a usb drive but all the apps are located on the sd card. any ideas?

I have the same problem with the Mega Drive-Forwarder = blackscreen, the previous version works perfect.

Can you make version-numbers for all the forwarders, for see the progress.


Great work!

 

[Solecist]

I have one important suggestion too:

Rename each wad with its -> PathFolder-ID-Name-Type version.wad

Like this:

Snes9xGX-ZSNE-Snes9xGX-Forwarder 001.wad

or

WadManager-YWAD-Wad Manager v1.4 Mod-Forwarder 002.wad


what do you think .....?


also...can you please make a "wiiflow" usbloader forwarder and a "geexbox" for us?

 

[TroyTheZombie]

Hey Troy, Finally had time to d/l the entire pack (thanks again) and install them. The utils work great and most of the emus do too but for some reason with master system, genisis and TG16 (hugo non logo) I get the banner, then choose start and I get the load screen but then just black and it kills my wiimote and I have to do a hard reset. I am using a standard SD card and I do have a usb drive but all the apps are located on the sd card. any ideas?

BTW; you are an incredible asset to the scene and thanks again for your labor of love

Hmm, all of eke eke's emulators. I'll look into it.

Type version?

anyway, nah. I name these for myself, which even right now they aren't my usual format. I plan on changing that a little later. ie.

"Super Nintendo-FVC-ZSNE(USBFor-snes9xgx)(21 Blocks).wad"

as far as version numbers go, these are the final incarnations of these channels that are up right now, unless better forwarders are made.

Ok, 3 things.

1st - You are blind. There is the whole pack of them is at the top of the very first post.

2nd - Blur? um , I'm using them on an HDTV. I see no blur. Somehow, I am betting it is your TV.

3rd- My forwarder wouldn't magically stop making your original one stop working, they are 2 separate files.
Also, they work for EVERY other person.(with the exception of the newest forwarders for eke eke's emulators, I have my suspicions her's just are not compatible) its something you are doing, or your card.

Besides, if you have so many problems with them, and others out there are so much better, I have 2 suggestions.

Use other ones, or make your own. Simple no? If you can make "better ones" be my guest, I'm not stopping you.

 

[wrettcaughn]

Keep doing your thing Troy. If people don't like them, they can learn to do it themselves.

 

[TroyTheZombie]

Its comments like that one that make me want to stop posting these and just keep new ones to myself. (not that I would, Most people are actually really nice)

I doubt that guy has ever even made a channel.

Anyway-
GC Backup launcher one works fine! i just tested it from a regular kingston SD card.

I'm about to test eke eke's emulators, if they fail to work, i"ll just throw linsk to the old ones back up, no problem.

UPDATE- Ah, the old codedump screen, lol. yep, eke eke's emulators are not compatible with these forwarders (even the latest redone gui genplus one, oddly enough.)

The old SD/SDHC ones will be put back up in thier place.

since I'll be putting up a new all in one pack, I'll be renaming them as well. It won't affect ones already installed, its simply how the wads are name. I'm not screwing with title ID's or anything, lol.

 

[wrettcaughn]

Thanks Troy. I just injected djdynamite's forwarders back into eke eke's emulators. Everything else works great though.

 

[Solecist]

ive got a HD TV ..sony bravia 50'.
yes, i already made channels... yes...i stop doing them cause...its not my gift ....
yes...i use glasses but im not blind at all......it was me that gave u the suggestion of one pack ....and i saw it imediatly .... I SAID :

"Then, upload AGAIN the results in one pack...." ...in other words:
if u can, try to launch the new pack without the issues of the emulators forwarders .....

U can be a very good critic without being a very good painter... if u know what i mean.... IT WAS only a suggestion .... ITS BECAUSE of suggestions....u/we evolve....dont forget that..... i posted here and said earlier "congrats" for some reason ....u should appreciate the same way good critics and bad critics.. as i do in music.....as i evolve....as OTHErs evolve man...

Anyway .... i only have probs with the forwarders people ARE already telling you.....

The rest of my talk .....was suggestions....to be "listen" ...or not.....u do want u want man...

 

[TroyTheZombie]

it wasn't the blur comment, it was that you said things didn't work without even looking into if the problem was on your end. I'm fine with critisim, as long as its not just pulled out of someones ass.

If it wasn't for criticism I wouldn't have remade these so many freaking times. So yes, I can accept criticism, as long as its said with some intelligence. which leads me to my next point-

BTW, WTF is with the dots after everything? annoying as hell to read.

YOU ARE STILL TYPING AFTER.

dots imply that you were interrupted.

anyway, You were not very clear with what you typed, but on second glance I suppose I can see the uploading a new pack bit.

 

[Solecist]

Its me making a staccato-pause in my speech... lol.

I had the original GC Backup Loader XI Channel (not forwarder)
With it installed i could see my F-Zero backup in original disc channel and could run the game in the channel. period. lol

After i installed ur forwarder and the GC Backup Loader 0.2 i downloaded, dont know were now, I DELETED the original channel trusting ur "forwarder + sd:\apps\rungcbackup\boot.dol" would work.
NOW, at this time, because deleting some important tickets of the original channel, dont know...i couldnt see the game in disc channel neither could boot it with your forwarder to the "rungcbackup" folder.. i used the GC Backup Loader 0.2 dol.
I installed again the channel....and for the channel and Disc channel ..the game booted always.

I'm calling bullshit on this because I'm able to get it working just fine on my Wii, along with several of the other forwarders except the few sega ones which were already acknowledged to not work.

There are several things that can go wrong with it. For one, you need to make sure you have the cMIOS installed. You may have made a bad burn. And hell, your cMIOS install working from a disc channel can vary depending on whichever one you used.

Now, given these are forwarders, they cannot be the direct cause of any mal-operation of the program. It would be just like blaming the homebrew channel for something not working.

 

[TroyTheZombie]

ah, thanks s3phir0th115. I thought it was a load of bullshit too. how the hell can eh blame me for that? Forwarders have nothing to do with that.

 

[Solecist]

u need more mates to form a team.

 

[TroyTheZombie]

what?

ENGLISH< DO YOU SPEAK IT?

lol, sorry, I couldn't resist.

anyway, I'm not trying to argue with you, but don't blame me for things that are broken on your end.

 

[Solecist]

P E A C E man.... about the english, i learned all by myself, not even one teacher.
Anyway, i dont understand which one/ones of the phrases U didnt understand... and yeh.. I never said u/forwarders were the problem, so....u didnt read well !
I just said what was my problem here, MY problem !! And gave u SOME fucked up suggestions...

lolol

Some people have those days ..maybe we are in those days...

(i re edited the post to take the dots away..most.)

 

[TroyTheZombie]

those days? what days? what the hell are you talking about?

I think this has been a lot of misunderstanding, simply because of your broken English. Your sentences aren't exactly typed to the point where they make complete sense, so I'm left guessing at what the heck you just said.

So, lets just end this. Its not going anywhere.

 

[wrettcaughn]

Solecist,

If you deleted a gbc channel and replaced it with a dol/forwarder, you may have to reinstall your cMIOS. But that's for a whole different thread.

 

[s3phir0th115]

If you have a problem with a gamecube backup launcher not working properly, that's for another thread. The only time you would complain about the channels forwarders here is if the forwarder is not doing its job, and that is launching the program from sd/usb.

 

[TroyTheZombie]

Hmm, on second glance, he does have a point about the loading screen.

I may tweak that before uploading a new all in one pack.

also, I'm attempting to finish a neogamma channel today, hopefully I'll get it up later today.

oh, right, and people have to remember, if I didn't do somethings the way I do with the images, the wads would be double the size they are now.(take up twice as many blocks). I try to get the best image quality I can while still keeping the size in check. No one wants a forwarder that takes up 40+ blocks.
