Hacking WiiFlow 4 The Masterpiece Pack by Abz

[AbdallahTerro]

Hey Abz, could you set the Gamecube joystick to function like the D-Pad? right now it moves around a cursor, but I want it to scroll through menus, move through games, etc.

The reason is, I have an arcade stick hooked up to my wii that emulates a gamecube controller, and it's only recognized as a gamecube joystick and therefor I can't navigate WiiFlow with it.

For clarification, see this:

Spoiler

nope,
this is the way it's supposed to be.
if you want to do a custom dol edit /source/btnmap.h
look for WPAD_BUTTON_RIGHT and LEFT since ths are the ones that move through covers
and for LEFT_STICK_LEFT and RIGHT since those are the ones you want to change

it's so deprecated

Sooo... Are you saying you won't update it?

 

[AbdallahTerro]

I'm saying I might remove it

 

[banjo2]

Oh okay.

hey abz, quick question a couple of months ago Extrems updated the N64 emulator have you updated your pack with the latest version?

yes but maybe some users reported problems exiting back to wiiflow when using this new mod
So I included the old one in _alt_stuff too

After update retroarch plugins not run at all. What happened?
Using USB HDD Driver for wiiflow and roms

check your rom path and rebuild the cache
also make sure you don't have redundant inis in wiiflow/plugins folder

nothing changed. I change .dol files from new pack on older, maybe i miss something?

not sure what's wrong, everything should be replaced and old setup should work, I test all plugins before making the pack and no problems here

Hi, is there a way to display both Wii and Gamecube games at the same time?

yes in startup options > Manage Source Menu > Enable MultiSource Feature
then go to source menu by pressing B or B on source and select the Wii and Gamecube using "+" button and hit back

 

[rupek1995]

Okay, will switch to WiiFlow then.
BTW the .dol only links are not working since yesterday I think.

EDIT: Also, is it normal that the Wiiflow configurator displays that I have an outdated IOS8, but the Wiiflow itself work fine?

Hey, I tried this but pressing + on Gamecube and Wii does nothing (in the source menu).

select one then select source menu and press "+" on the other one
which links are down?
IOS 8 is not a prerequisite forget about it

 

[rupek1995]

I did, but it doesn't work! My source menu is just small bubbles with icons on it , and pressing + / R(on GC pad) does nothing.
I'll try to add a video/pics of how I do it.
Also, is there a way to edit Nintendont config in Wiiflow.ini to add custom video width? (the video width option in nintendont) and an option to use ONE emulated memory card for ALL GC games?

you are not using the source menu just the default source page
you find the source menu in /wiiflow/source_menu folder it's included in the pack
as for custom video width I did not add this yet to the ini however if you need just one width it can be easily added to nintendont (by recompiling the source)

 

[rupek1995]

Hi, I copied the source menu folder from the pack to my source folder on SD card (it was empty).

Okay, thanks for the tip! it works now!

Hi all. I have trawled through the 74 pages of this thread and tried various ways to get game covers to show up on wiiflow when I go into the SNES section. I had found what I assume were some links to instructions however those link have all shown dead.

My question. Has anyone got a link to instructions on getting game covers to show when using snes9xgx through this amazing wiiflow masterpiece or have suggestions on getting them to show. I'm at that point where I have tried so many ways I am forgetting what I have tried and failed in the past.

Any hep would be very grateful. (ps Abz, the work you have done is absolutely amazing)

Thanks
