IOS222 = heres the way it was explained to me....

cIOS usb2 for backups = ios222
cIOS usb2 for homebrew = ios202
cIOS for woriking usb loader = ios249 (cIOS 36 v9 for usb loader 1.1 and cIOS 36 v10 for 1.2-1.5)

cIOS for working usb loader + usb2 speed = ios249 + ios222

I've seen that explanation before, but what I've never heard is whether "usb2 speed" actually does anything for anyone. In fact, all I've heard from posts here is that installing IOS222 often results in a ton of conflicts and things breaking. Games seem to run fine with just IOS36 v10 installed, or are there some games that need it that I just haven't tried yet? Do the people having problems just not know what they're doing?

I don't really want to install something that could just destabilize my system, especially since removing IOSes after they're installed can lead to even more problems. But if it's helpful and works better than I've heard, I'd certainly do it.

As far as language settings for text in the loader, it would be dumb for us to do it now. We are still adding and removing text and it is easier to do it with only language to worry about several. Maybe when we are happy with the way everything is set up we will translate it. If people want to start translating, they are more than welcome to do so. Please don't post any translations in here though. We may not even include any. We haven't discussed that at all. So, wait till we are ready and we ask for them and contact us by pm. If we don't ask, then we don't want them.

IMO, it's dumb to not include it the earlier you can. I'm dev too (it's my job), not in this language, and what i know by experience, it's easier to add basic files/methods at the beginning. But it's just my opinion. If you take a look at JAVA programs the first things to be written are objects and associated methods before the prog core ...

What we ask is not adding languages in the dol, but for example, replacing strings by vars :

e.g. "Back to loader" would be rendered by this var : LANG.backtoloader and this var could have one initial value "Back to loader" and one found in a language file "Retour HBC". I tried it, and it works. I understand it's quite boring to add/remove text, but, it's a var instead of a string, not a big deal. I t

But, it was just my opinion. As it's your app, it's up to you

Let them do whatr they want and do it yourself if you want.

Translation will comme when they point, that is the point.

And the french one will be without any mistakes, same as from afghanistan

252 is out, but I think the code needs some cleaning so I'm not compiling it. Just wait for the next one.

for anyone interested.. here is my r252 tweaked boot.dol file

Has new Super Mario Bros Theme
Background music is now Wii Shop Channel Music, not main menu music.
Tested and works.
Why are you compiling your theme and not just posting it as a theme at the theme forum?

What rev?

-------------------------
Also 253 is out. Changed the widescreen code for program and themes. Should be nice but the code cleaning I earlier mentioned it's still there. Shouldn't cause problems by I won't compile it though.

@OuahOuah : It's easy to criticize while you didn't give a cent for that. Even if there are mistakes in his translation, he tried, you not. "Too many ordinary" people as you said, sure have more experience than you on coding and hack scene. And they try to help. Respect people, and stop judging others, and I will wait for your perfect "translation".

Maybe, it's not a MUST in devs mind, but sure they are wrong. Gui means graphical user interface which could possibly mean "user friendly" no ? English app, for those who don't understand any word of english (you're french, you know that kind of people exists), is definitely not USER FRIENDLY.

Then devs can do what they want, and even if they don't agree with me about that point, as it's my own opinion, i don't refer to them as "Ordinary people", I respect their work as it's awesome

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)

    run h2testw on it
