nice, very nice. Just did my first test with this nand loader. Packed into Tiki Towers NTSC-U

Previously would ONLY work on PAL wii if 1.app was video patched AND wii system was set to 576i, but now with waninkokos loader and 'force NTSC' option it plays at full 480p on PAL wii.

Only thing to take into account is that if your game has a LZ77 compressed 1.app, you will need to uncompress before packing wad as the loader doesnt support LZ77 decompress.

The NAND Loader is just a little piece of software that manages the channel loading == NAND Loader is a channel preloader (i'm not talking about crediar's preloader lol).

Almost all channels include a NAND Loader. This NAND Loader allows to do more things (and can be used for homebrew to create legal channels).

The injector just injects this NAND Loader in already installed channels.

great work. I assume this can be used to use cheats on wiiware/vc games at some point down the line, right? Also, quick question for you about wbfs, i havent installed a lot of games because i assume you are going to update to wbfs+ file system at some point and we'll need to format the hard drives for that one day, is that going to happen or should i just install the rest of the titles i have. Thanks and again, excellent work.

So, what is better for homebrew? comex nandloader or wanins nandloader?

Seems like for WW/VC, wanins has the advantage of his booting menu.

Only thing to take into account is that if your game has a LZ77 compressed 1.app, you will need to uncompress before packing wad as the loader doesnt support LZ77 decompress.

Does comex's loader support LZ77 decompression?

No, only newer versions of ninty nand loader does from what i can see, I use comex loader still, but waninkokos loader is nice to use in VC/WW to force video modes.

Just a question for those who may know, can the options be set in the .dol file before packing ? or do you always need to set after installing wad? Where do the settings get saved to? :\

i get codedump when starting a patched channel after the config screen (using 4.0E).

If you got a code dump it is most likely due to the game having a LZ77 compressed 1.app, unpack wad, decompress 1.app and repack wad

thanks for the info, but this seems too awkward. i'll use gecko instead..

Thanks for the advice man, i was getting a code dump on some newer titles maybe that will solve the problem

Hi, where to put NANDLoader_v1.BIN on the SD card?

 

[M tha MaN]

So there's a Chance that I can play Super Mario Bros, Super Mario Bros 2 and Super Mario Bros 3 with my Component cable, using this tool ???

 

[stev418]

if you replace the VC nand with this one you can play ALL vc in 480p on a PAL wii, ive already done all my N64 stuff, now playing in 480p

 

[M tha MaN]

Great. I will try it =)

 

[pika9323]

So:
We can now play N64 Games in 480p and 60hz with that?
This would be awesome!

Does this work with OoT?
Will try.

 

[M tha MaN]

Which videomode do i have to use ???

Can't get SMB working...I always get a black screen.

PAL VC? I thought that the rom is hardcoded...???

Damn I wanna try this now

- Go Majoras Mask!

 

[stev418]

The trick is to use an NTSC wad (you still want a VC that uses a 60hz rom file)

So for example, get Ocarina of Time NTSC wad, change the 6.app for wanins loader, then hold reset when booting game, set YES for FORCE NTSC and press A, youl now be playing ocarina in 480p on your PAL wii

Works for Genesis and NES games also, just remember to use an NTSC wad

What am i supposed to do to get SMB working on a PAL Wii ???

read my post, get the NTSC version, replace nand loader, and set to FORCE NTSC
