It's just the source from wanikoko's site with nothing else.

Thanks a million for the info - even though this hasnt got the cheats i think id prefer the look of it - that being said - i think wiipower and fishears will have the edited source for the one with the add ons and if you have time might be nice to add that into yours as well. Ill be using this either way in my zip if thats ok with you , but if u do a version of the one with the extras it would be class

Ohh another quick question - i believe some drives are freezing due to spindown problems after a while - i dont suppose this usb loader overcomes that little problem does it ?

this crashes for me when I scroll to Super Mario Galaxy (resets back to the wii menu). I assume this is because I have NTSC version and it's not matching properly with the file in the image folder, but it works with the Zelda that was packaged, however, MarioKart just shows up as "NO IMAGE" (doesn't crash though)...

OK, we've got sorg's mod, WiiPower's mod, m-tek's mod, a LoPsT edition(?), adult versions, kids versions, NTSC/PAL versions....

Anyone know the difference between all these? Honestly I'd like to see someone take all these over and combine them into one or two instead of having a mix-match of all these versions (and it certainly isn't going to be me). Does anyone want to do this? And OMG what's going to happen if wanikoko releases a 1.2.

Yeah i can compile them, but some of them are redundant. Hold on ill edit my topic with each specific one.
Sorgs (from tehskeen)
Code: 
* shows list of 21 entries instead 6.
* more adequate navigating by left and right keys.
* Doesn't attempt to switch TV mode before load game (uses default TV mode instead). Original loader tries to switch TV mode according to game region which makes PAL games unplayable on TV not supporting PAL modes (NTSC-U/J Wii) and NTSC games on TV not supporting NTSC modes (PAL Wii). Now i can play Mario Kart PAL and Wii Chess PAL on my NTSC-U Wii!

M-tek Child Safe
Code: 
V1

ÂÂÂÂ* Removed Install Game Option
ÂÂÂÂ* Removed Remove Game Option
ÂÂÂÂ* Removed Format Option
ÂÂÂÂ* Removed Game Boot comformation Screen (Boot straight into the game)
ÂÂÂÂ* Added 17 Games per page (6 by default)

V2

ÂÂÂÂ* greater game compatibility (ntsc/pal)
ÂÂÂÂ* png loading from sd card (/USBLOADER) (working on hbc and preloader install file only..use fixed image for wads)
ÂÂÂÂ* Added full version + full version force ntsc

WiiPower
Code: 
-Either forces NTSC or Pal 
- Uses Wanin's 1.1 Loader

Hahaha, pretty much most important question there is. Hopefully we can get a pretty, clean GUI channel that can work with a .dol forwarder or something....

Try downloading your own image for SMG and let me know if it works. Does your MarioKart diskId match the filename in the images directory?

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • 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

    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
