Hacking Tutorial: Compile your own USB Loader!

[aquarion]

No I mean this:

You see, when usbloader is loaded, it creates a black rectangle there. So I wanted to know if that rectangle (the one usbloader creates, not the one in the background) can be made transparent.

I see, okay MightyMouse, I'll be waiting

Thanks OP!
Worked like a charm.

 

[TiMeBoMb4u2]

I followed your tutorial, and I am receiving errors (see below). How can I fix this?

delete the BUILD-folder (c:\USBLoader\build) completely and try compiling again,if that doesn`t work check that you have the correct
folder structure which is c:\USBLoader. (it should not be c:\USBLoader\blahblahblah\woot etc etc..)

Can you think any possible cause of this?Thanks

if you messed with the source then i can`t.

I didnt touch anything.I have compiled other programs before.Seriously i have no idea why i get this message!
Is there a possibility that i miss something in libogc?

 

[nIxx]

Little question do i still need a older devkitpro to compile this like with the Backup Loaders !?

No I mean this:

You see, when usbloader is loaded, it creates a black rectangle there. So I wanted to know if that rectangle (the one usbloader creates, not the one in the background) can be made transparent.

I see, okay MightyMouse, I'll be waiting

Dont let the Usbloader make this rectangle or is it a console !?

@snaker: You most likely don´t have the actuall libogc

 

[Gino_Drago]

Hi, working fine for me, but does anybody knows how to ADD Force NTSC to the source?

 

[nIxx]

Already done

[WiiBlaster]

btw, did you have any errors while installing devkitpro?

No none it all went fine

EDIT: Noob proof but not WiiMonkey proof

Let me guess your using VISTA

some people will get these problems when complying with vista when others dont,

 

[snaker]

Can someone please upload his libogc that works when compiling this program?

Deleted the "build" folder. My folder structure is correct. Same issue!

Any other ideas?

I am using Vista, but I had NO problems installing devkitpro. I'm still having build problems.

 

[u4Wii]

I am using Vista, but I had NO problems installing devkitpro. I'm still having build problems.

He didn't say people with Vista would have issues installing DevkitPro, he said they would occur when compiling the source code (building).

Try running "Programmers Notepad" as Adminstrator (right click the short cut and choose "Run as Admin" etc). I can't test to see if this will resolve it for you or not as I'm still using XP.

Thanks dude!

But when I try I get a error:

What is this?

I've placed it all in: C:\USBLoader...
(Yes, only the Build , Makefile , Data etc folders/files in there...)

Thanks

Guyz, do you all understand what you are doing ? We are talking here about recompiling a software. That means to have a little understanding about what compiling and setting up a compiler means. So when I see how you all don't understand why you have linking errors once you run "make", I really wonder if you know what you are doing.

If you don't know what it does, and how to do it, don't use it, and that's all ...

Tried that. Same problem. Thanks, though.

I compiled MANY times in the past (not recently)! Normally, I would compile from a Linux command-line, though. So, I understand I'm getting errors, but I don't know why?! Below is the error I'm getting:

To me it looks like there's something wrong with your devkit installation. Are you sure there aren't any spaces in any filepath and you did restart your pc after the installation?
