Hacking Nintendont

[Drak0rex]

I updated wiiflow mastermod today adding "native control" to GC Game Settings
I need a couple of testers to check if this works since I don't have the hardware to test myself, tia

I'm still concerned with the possibility of covers and more becoming corrupted. From 1054 onward, I've had a constantly random issue with covers getting corrupted when caching, and even ones that are already cached. Went back to 1053 and the problem disappeared. Can anyone help me out here?

 

[ShadowOne333]

it's a custom mod based on 1054 but has all features found in 1076 and much more

Oh ok thanks! I already downloaded it and got it working.

On a side note:
I know both Pokemon Colosseum and Pokemon XD have Widescreen issues when we enable the Widescreen hack in Nintendont, right?
So I was looking for some Widescreen cheat codes like the Mario Kart Double Dash one and Smash. Melee. and stumbled upon Widescreen cheat codes for the Pokemon NGC games too!

Try them out and let me know your results (if you can take pictures it would be nice):

Pokemon Colosseum (GC6E01)
 
16:9 Aspect Ratio (Widescreen) [Ralf]
C20A3930 00000002
C3A2B084 EFBD00B2
60000000 00000000
0447E724 3FAAAAAB

Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness (GXXE01)
 
16:9 Aspect Ratio (Widescreen) [Ralf]
C20B3454 00000002
C3A2BF9C EFBD00B2
60000000 00000000
044EFD5C 3FAAAAAB

If these codes work properly, maybe these could be added in a hard-coded way into the Widescreen hack as a stand alone patch only applied to these two games to make them work properly with Widescreen and not having all letters and text mirrored

I never understood the purpose of shrinking ISO images, seeing as the games themselves don't exceed 1.35 GB in size. and seeing as USB HDDs are cheap and hold a lot.

It's good for people that use a flash drive or (in my case) an SD card.

this doesn't make any sense 1053 to 1054 update has no libpng or cover update

you mean the "native control" right?

My apologies. I meant 1073. My best guess is this. V
-updated wiiflow to the latest devkitppc and latest libogc

Anyone else is habing issues enabling cheat codes?
I tried Wiiflow, original path with GCT from GeckoCodes, cheats path and everything but the game starts normally, or sometimes gives black screen.

All my ISO are shrunk yeah and run fine, except this three games that run fine with DIOS MIOS but not with nintendont using the ''wrong ISO'' that gave me error on NINTENDONT: F-zero GX, Baten kaitos 1 and 2. So i Downloaded the ISO again and converted them with DMtoolbox with the RAW option and all good with nintendont, but with DIOS MIOS they were fine before doing this anyways. Seems like nintendont prefers RAW with these three for me

With baten kaitos the only ISO that gave me issues were the disc 1 of each one. Because when selecting optimized the final ISO was larger than the original one maybe there is something wrong with it who knows. Now all my games work, keep the good work guys, this is great!

 

[BooLWiigiN]

Can you explain me what is the RAW option in DMtoolbox please?

 

[Kikirini]

Not sure when it was fixed, but Fire Emblem is working now! Thanks devs!

RAW it's a 1:1 exact copy of your ISO.
And yeah I was just playing fire emblem today, I can confirm that too.

If you have the full set, the size is over 1TB, shrunken is about 700GB, that is a huge saving.

Well worth it to me. Shrink them all and leave the problematic ones full size.

So DMtoolbox allow us to convert an ISO from shrunked format to 1:1?

I get the error : To run GameCube games with Nintendont you need to set your 'Main GameCube Path' on the first partition of the Hard Drive.

My hdd has only one partition how do I fix this so the GameCube games work on my Wiiu?

It says this in USBloaderGx

In Nintendont it says fs error 12 shutting down and it restarts the wiiu.

 

[KongsNutz]

I never use shrunken ISO'S just a personal thing really.

Well, I don't have a massive collection of GCN games...

why would anyone have 1tb worth of gc games? are they fans of crappy games? becuase with a full set more than 80% of those games will just be very bad games in general.

Some people just want to watch the GC burn

I've been reading about the de-flicker filter that is applied to most Gamecube games, you can seen it in action on the Smash Bros Brawl option screen, and it seems it is part of the patch that enables the SWISS widescreen patch. Is there a chance it could be implemented as an option in Nintendont to remove the blurryness for people with Component or HDMI (WiiU) cables?
