Linux user here.

I have disabled all drives in winecfg except C: (~/.wine/drive_c) and ran pa-smg3.exe without any arguments. It instantly ate up all CPU resources, so I killed it without waiting for something to pop up. I have checked ~/.wine/drive_c size before and after running the supposed patcher and no bytes were added or removed.
However I must stress that I only ran the executable for a second or two before manually killing it.

Try opening pa-smg3.exe in hex editor, there are some Win API calls that should not be required for CLI patcher (WNetGetConnectionA is especially suspicious).

Look a few posts up, i warned everyone about this call (WNetGetConnectionA)...

wasn't the difference between old modchips and d2ckey that the old ones say: this game is ok, you can load it and that the d2ckey actually masks that the dvd is a recordable media? wii game's are reported as dvd-rom but dvd's for burning as dvd-r (check pc software that can scan it, booktype it is called if i'm correct)

now i don't know if there is anyway in burning software to let the dvd be read by all devices as dvd-rom or that this is possible with the old modchips through the serial port or by the iso being patched

some people are so sad.
you do realize that by using this patch with the code WNetGetConnectionA
in it that your are making the shares all known by this patch. and thus a callback could arrise that sets the pc wideopen ?
I guess this guy will have a lot of new drones to add to his dronenet soon.

In other words: this WNetGetConnectionA is an API in the MS API that lets you get the network share/drive connected to the computer

Anyway I will enjoy my bought copy even though I have a modded wii. I am not this desperate

I hope this topic becomes 502 pages long and someone will come along and ask a question and we will all tell them "Read the thread before asking a question!!" and they will say "It's 502 pages long and now that I have posted this it's 504!" and we will say "well maybe you should have thought of that before getting a good nights rest!"

    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    The phat model had amazingly loud speakers tho.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
