Homebrew WitGui?

[chriskuta]

Hi all - please bare with me I'm a newbie

I'm using Wii with USBLoader GX on Homebrew and my collection is working fine so far.

I'm on MacOSX so I have limited options to manage my Wii and Gamecube images, however I've come across WitGui [1] that uses wit and wwt? I've pointed it at my collection of wbfs files and it creates a window of games with a boxart and metadata, ok cool. But I'm not really sure what else it actually does (it says convert - convert to what?). Each time I load it up I have to re-point it to my folder and it does the scan all over again? Am I supposed to export this as HTML or something so I can use this as reference in future?

My Gamecube games are just ISOs in one folder and USBLoader GX or Nintendont (not sure which) doesn't like this folder structure, I've manually created a few games by creating a sub-folder moving in the iso and renaming it to game.iso and that works.

So now I'm wondering how can I batch convert the rest of them some of them are even multi-disk too?

Hello,

did you test "wii backup fusion" ??

Thanks unfortunately I'm on Catalina which means anything 32 bit is completely out. But I have a Windows 10 laptop so I plan to try Gamecube ISO/GCM Organizer Script which looks like it'll batch my all in one folder ISOs to the correct folder structure. I was in the middle of writing a bash shell script to manage this but the multi-disc games are making the script far more work than I'd like

I've managed to convert my GC iso's to the folder structure that USB Loader GX (or Nintedont) requires using Gamecube ISO/GCM Organizer Script and confirmed they seem to be working (the games I tried at least).

Back to WitGui.. Now with the new folders I try to load these up in WitGui and get the error (it was doing this before as well)

!! wit: ERROR #126 [FATAL ERROR] in wd_read_part() @ src/libwbfs/wiidisc.c#865
!! ASSERTION FAILED !!!

Does anyone have any idea.. only GC games are doing this.. Wii ones are fine.

you can run Windows applications on MacOS using Wine: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/373851/how-to-get-wine-working-on-catalina

Sounds like a good idea. Hope the windows apps are 64 bit otherwise they won't work.
