Hello. After some research, the currently "best" external hard drive I can find at local retailers (I don't live in the US) is this one.
Since we can now use FAT partitions to store the .wbfs files I'm going to use this for other stuff as well, lots of space. With an added plus of not requiring plugging into an outlet.

My question is, has anyone used this HDD with USBLoaders on the Wii? Can anyone recommend it? According to the WikiTemp list, it seems that almost all entries regarding WD Passports are positive, but I'm not sure.
And regarding disk spindown, would it be a problem with this HDD? If so, how does one fix it?

Thank you.

    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select

  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma

    @BigOnYa, How do I make enemies respawn on gdevelop after
    the player dies?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Carrying a PC or phone is so old school!
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Squeeze your cheeks twice to answer calls!
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    @Xdqwerty you can use a "spawner" function on any object.

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Easiest, simple way would be just restart scene, but player would restart from beginning.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, thx in advance
