I can't inject certain roms into custom wads, like Shin Megami Tensei, Super Mario 64 with rumble and others

I tried patching Super Mario 64 with the shotgun rom hack, but next was still in black

Both of your issues are easy to figure out. Its because of the Wii Virtual Console emulators not having compatibility for your selected injections.

Yes I know. And it notoriously crashed at the worst possible times.
Apparently that was the GameCube version not the WiiVC version.
This is correct, I've completed Majora's Mask on WiiVC, without crashes.

The Gamecube collector's edition (the one with 4 games) had issues, including crashes, in a game where saving ended a play session.

WiiVC crashed less, but still crashed enough for me to never want to play a game like MM on it.

The original game on WiiVC crashed very rarely, as the internet can tell you. MAYBE once in any given playthrough of the game. But in a save system like Majora's, it's pretty frustrating/hard to forget when it does happen. Anyway my original question for @CatmanFan was what "Fix Crashes" means in the changelog. Probably not related to fixing Nintendo's N64 emulator, but I just wanted to make sure.

I also don't think it relates to fixing the emulator's stability either and probably just disables checksum verification or some other error handler so that the injected game has less hurdles to execution, that's just a guess though.

For the "Fix Crashes" patch, I used sm64wii source code on GitHub as a reference to find the specific patch hexcode and offset:
https://github.com/aglab2/sm64wii/blob/master/kit/gzi/crashes_fix_on.gzi
Sadly it does not provide any context other than simply being called a "Decomp Crashes fix", so I think it likely has to do with the ROM itself rather than the emulator

hey there, i eventually sourced the file and registered it, then got the injector to work

note: you must acquire a 32 bit version of the .dll (even if you are using a x64 bit system, which most people are)

btw, Donkey Kong 64 is a Rare game and Rare microcode (ucode) doesn't work at official VC WADs...
try making a SRL instead.

    I personally handled a call from the second highest person at Raytheon. That call bothered me a lot... The guy was nice and smart what bothered me was the way management basically just blew him off instead of going the extra mile to help him.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol
