Hacking Homebrew app USB Loader GX and GameCube games

[legolas119]

hi,
i have the CHBC cfw and i installed all the needed app, Nintendont included. I have a couple of questions, please:

1) In order to use the gamecube adapter+gamecube controller with USB loader GX, i have to set NATIVE CONTROLLER = ON in the Gamecube options?
2) Which is the button I have to push in order to exit from a GC game? i tried pushing HOME button but i had problem and i had to format again the microSD...

thank you

I don't know the answer to the first question, but the second question, home is the way to exit. I can't recall if it returns you to usb loader gx though or goes back to the wii u section.

well, i tried to exit pushing L+R+Z+START and I tried also with the HOME button: the game exit, it returns to USB loader menu. but i continue to have the same issue: it appear a pop up that says that the USB isn't initialized so i have to format it again. Otherwise, the wii games aren't available anymore
After this error, it appears this screen:

so I go into the optiond and i see this:

i change again in this way:

and when I push OK, it appears this:

and if i push OK it appears again this:

The only way to solve the issue is format again the USB key and put again all the games! How can I solve this stupid issue?

Another question please: if i play GC games with Nintendont or WiiFlow, they are in 4:3, but if i play them with USB loader, are in 16:9. How can i modify the aspect ration in USB loader too only for GC games? I found the Aspect Ration option, and its default option is SYSTEM DEFAULT. If i put it to FORCE 4:3 it will be OK for GC games, but not for Wii games (they shoul be in 16:9 natively) and if i put FORCE 16:9 it is ok for Wii games but not for GC games...

thank you very much!

here's mine. gc is in 16x9, widescreen, but it doesn't fill the entire screen just like how my ps2 doesn't:

when I exit, this happens:

I get no errors or problems. though, my cube games are on the sd card (if that matters).

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

I put it in widescreen in nintendont's settings, not sure about usb loader gx's nintendont settings (just turned the system off).

 

[legolas119]

yes, that's correct, it doesn't fill the total 16:9, there are 2 little black stripes at left and right. I don't know, probably with USB loader GX it is not possible to keep GC games in 4:3 and Wii games in 16:9..

Well, another question: i saw here , at minute 20:18, that it is possible to separate Wii and GC games...but how can I do that?

thank you!

 

[godreborn]

I don't know how to do that.

 

[legolas119]

ok no problem thank you.
Do you have any suggestion in order to improve the graphic/resolution of the GC (and Wii if possible) games on a FullHD tv?
Now i have all Defautl values in USB loader and Nintendont, i dind't changed anything...

 

[godreborn]

can't say, I'm using a framemeister, which is an upscaler. all games look fine to me.

 

[legolas119]

ok no problem.
I would like to add N64 games too: is it better to use Not64 or WiiU with injection?
thank you!

 

[godreborn]

always better to use the virtual wii. you're limited on the wii u with injections unless you use loadiine. the max number of games on the wii u side is 292 iirc, because the rest, adding up to I think 300, includes the default apps.

 

[legolas119]

well, i followed this guide and in the end i choosed WUP installable. I tried one game and it works... and it appears in the main Wii U menù. I don't know if you are referring to this...
if not, i don't know how to install a n64 game on vWii... are you referring to Retroarch app?
Just another question please: which controller do you use for N64 games? the Wii U controller works, but i'm not sure that all commands are mapped...
i found this adapter: https://www.raphnet-tech.com/products/n64_to_wiimote/index.php
but i don't know it original N64 joypad will be supported by injected games...

 

[godreborn]

I'm not entirely sure, but I mean on the virtual wii. I don't play n64 games on my system, so I don't have any experience with them. I just know that you have a limited number of game installs on the wii u side, but the vwii should be unlimited afaik.

 

[legolas119]

ok, thank you!
