Hacking What does the wii u use for colors(BGR,RGB,etc.)?

[QuarkTheAwesome]

So for an 2D emulator --> RGBA
3D Emulator --> Luck + BGRA/RGB

It's not really about 2D/3D. The chip8 and gacubeboy emulators are both 2D and use GX2. I think they're
also using RGB565, though don't hold me to that one.
Brave souls could also make a software 3D renderer for OSScreen, which would be RGBA8888 (can someone please clear up the correct notation for these?)

RGBA8888 = R8G8B8A8 = RGBA8. (Also known as RGBA32 at some cases)

RGB10A2 = R10G10B10A2. (Also known as RGBA32 at some cases)

RGB565 = R5G6B5. (Also known as RGB16 at some cases)

RGBA64 = R16G16B16A16.

RGBA128 = R32G32B32A32.

etc.

DeSmuME U?

No... ?

No, nothing that advanced. It's a rather simple system. Anyone want to guess what it is?

(it's already been ported to 3DS by nop90 if that helps).

Handy?

I know the emulator's been released, but in case there's any other developers wondering, it depends on the graphics system you're using. If it's OSScreen, you'll want RGBA (0xRRGGBBAA, e.g. 0xFF00FFFF is 100% opaque purple). GX2 supports several colour formats which you can choose when everything's getting set up.

Also @shutterbug2000, have you noticed the fancy new Homebrew subforum? You might want to start posting stuff like this over there - this section is now officially "Hacking & Backup Loaders".

OH wow I didn't even notice that. Whoops lol
