Homebrew WiiSX beta 1

[Cyan]

Cyan: First split it up in the different letter sections
Like that, multiple people can edit more sections at once

Ok.
I will split the current big table and submit it, then someone can start from the bottom to the top while I do from the top

Edit : Done.

Did all sections from B - Z

Great emulator!! Haven't tried the Mod3 yet.

Tested with Beta1 running from USB drive
all NTSC-U (.bin & .cue) - all play best on Dynarec core

Tenchu - works great - no music or voices - but def playable (seemed much slower running from USB compared to SD)
Tenchu 2 - doesn't work - black screen after pressing start
Rollcage - doesn't work - *gutted!* hangs when checking memory cards
Rollcage: Stage 2 - Works! - plays great, no music but SFX ok & minor slowdown on 'rainy' levels
Medal of Honor - Works - playable, sound is glitchy

Have already added to the compatibility wiki.

Hoping Rollcage (1) will work some time soon - I miss playing that!
Thanks again for the mod, will check that out soon.

*edit* the mod3 version rules - much better analog controls on the classic controller!!

I notice that when launching Wiisx from the HBC it still says version R57

It happened to me when the device with the isos couldn't be read (like, after using ftpii to update the boot.dol it corrupted my devices, I had to format the usb again) (HS : it even bricked one of my SDHC card which isn't detected anymore by the Wii but working with any other computer. I don't use ftpii anymore :/)
When I switched to another SD or USB device, it worked again, so I guess it's related to reading the game list.
I don't think it's mod3 problem, as it's working for other people. Sometime I got random code dump too, just try again. or try beta1 not mod to see if it's doing the same thing, then try renaming your games.

there are few mod of WiiSX which accept ISO loaded from USB.

check here http://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/WiiSX_compatibility_list
You will find few Mod which accept USB loading.
And on the help section, there's a detail way on how to make it work on USB.

There is another mod which accept USB2.0 using IOS202, I'll add it.
Edit : Done.
Thank you Xander for this mod.

do you have to have your drive formatted to fat32 though or can i use ntfs?

 

[Cyan]

only FAT32.

Though, I didn't test it with WiiMC's IOS202, but I think it's not enough to enable NTFS. The devs need to add the mount code.
As it was an SD only on the original WiiSX, I doubt there's the NTFS code present.

 

[Bladexdsl]

o well cant use fat32 in w7

do i copy the wiisxmod3 icon file to the sd root or usb root?

i also copied the game img file (alundra) onto the psxios folder on my usb drive and i put the bootdol into the wiisx folder on my usb, which should be fine right?

I'm not sure you did it all correctly.

What is your icon file you are talking about ?
There's nothing to copy to root, neither SD nor USB.

JUST follow what is written to the wiki page I gave you :

First, verify your folder name : it must be PSXISOS not psxios

then your usb must look like this :

usb:/apps/wiisx/boot.dol
usb:/PSXISOS/SCPH1001.bin
usb:/PSXISOS/alundra.bin (or .img)

Not hard I think.
Then connect your USB drive, run HBC.
If you have an SD card, push 1 so select USB.
Boot WiiSX.

the mod download for usb support, that icon file, where do i put it?

 

[Cyan]

I really don't know which icon you are talking about.
There is no icon in all 3 mods available on the wiki page.

are you talking about icon.png ?
There is no icon.png supplied, but if you have one self made or found elsewhere, just put it in
usb:/apps/wiisx/boot.dol
usb:/apps/wiisx/icon.png

Hi,
I haven't been able to see anything here but where do I get the SCPH1001.bin file from?

I have a PAL Region E Wii if that helps.

Cheers, Will
