Twilight Hack 0.1alpha3

[g4jek8j54]

Could a indie Wii Freeloader be constructed from this for unmodded consoles? Could some great homebrew emulators arise? Who knows

I was hoping for something like that, also. At least something that blocks the firmware updates on newer games. Also, I'm assuming that once they figure out Wi-Fi and everything like that, emulators could be made with online capabilities.

Wow, the twilight hack has now been made incredibly easy to execute! Things seem to be developing at quite a pace for wiibrew, really looking forward to some innovative use of the wiimote for homebrew soon...how cool will a proper wii-pong be?

Before we know it, we could have a wii-mote controlled version of ScummVM! *Dreams*

We still need a library to make Wii homebrew development easier.. all Wii homebrew made till now are just ports of GC homebrew.. :/

before i get to excited is there anyway to run genesis/snes roms with the emus provided off the SD card now or is it still necessary for a GCGecko and a modded Wii? either way it's good news seems progress is growing fast on this "hack" but i would love to go chuck some roms on my SD cards now.

I'm using MCbackup to backup and restore Gamecube saves to SD using SDgecko.

I will try to convert the MCBackup.dol to .elf to see if it still access GC memory card while booting from the front SD slot.

I'm wondering if it will be possible to read/write saves in the front SD slot with a new SDlib.

You can load the emulator (I loaded Genesis Plus) through the internal SD slot. However, I'm assuming you still need an SD Gecko to load the ROMs. Loading through the internal slot hasn't been added into the emulator yet.

@CockroachMan devkitpro/devkitppc added the wii a couple of weeks back, granted it is not that advanced and I expect we will see a nice bit of fallout like the earlier gba and DS days but it is there.

ahhh i hope that happens soon, probably not to hard to do if thats the only thing stopping it but then what do i know.

EDIT: so as not to cause any confusion my post was in reply to g4jek8j54

Wait, so it's need a GameCube controller to control this app?

Yeah, I saw that.. but it still lacks functions to support the Wii remote, Wifi and stuff like that.. it only allows you to make GC homebrew running on Wii mode.. well.. this whole "Wii homebrew scene' started in less than 2 months, and it already grew a lot, can't wait to see how this will be 6 months from now..

 

[bnninja]

so could i use that to load gcos and then gc isos?

 

[jalaneme]

lol awesome, now they need to put nice gui or something some sick emus and they i will check it out.

Well yeah... Imagine a Wii Channel that runs backup Games... even on a un-modded Wii! (Just copy the channel from the SD Card to the "Fresh" Un-Chipped/Modded Wii...)

And a MP3 Channel... or even better a Wii MoonShell!

And Emulators... like NES, SNES, GB, GBC, GBA!!

The possibilities will be so much...

And Wii controller support, etc. and Me too!

 

[SpaceJump]

Is it currently possible to have more than one elf on the SD-card and to choose which one to load?

 

[raulpica]

Now we just need a new SD-Boot version from emu_kidid which supports Wii's internal slot

 

[teonintyfive]

HOLY F**K! Awesome!

But I don't have Twilight Princess

Minor grammatical problems aside, I'd advise you not to get carried away -- while a lot of this stuff is indeed possible, you don't want to get disappointed if it's never made, huh?

I would love to see a backup loader

But I know... blah blah... piracy...

I'll go make it myself (might take me a year or two

)

 

[webyugioh]

can anyone help me, i can't get it to work.
I replaced the save file
i formated my SD card
i put my elf file on the root and renamed it "boot.elf"
i start it all up
and it comes up

FAT_ReadFile(boot.elf) failed with error -1
## No elf image at address 90100000
DOL image detected?
loading binary file...

and just stays there.

Can anyone help?

"## No elf image at address 90100000"
Wow the SD slot is memory mapped by the looks of things.

Did you put it at the address you were supposed to (it was 1000 or something)?
Writeelf should do for windows and the linux command line has the option somewhere.
