Hacking DIOS MIOS! GC ISO Loader proof of concept (Starfox Assault)
- Status
This looks great. Once this is fully running, a lot of people (Myself included) will be quite happy.
I wouldn't say so, since most hacks come originally out of hardware mods, like iPhone jailbreaks and the PS3 hack.
He showed the open wii. To show that the disc drive wasn't in.. and or to see that he wasn't using a wode or anything.. Idk if he has sound working though.If you read his twitter he said somehting about it not working... Or something..recalling from memory don't take my word for it..
Who knows If the audio was working we.hope he's figured it out.. Prob not though because he put backround music. Love the ending though pretty funny.

Actually it's pretty easy to get most of the audio streaming games to work as backups, some of the audio is just missing then. Some of these games are problematic to boot as RETAIL discs, this includes Eternal Darkess, Starfox Adventures and Zelda Ocarina of Time/Master Quest.
To get the missing audio to work, he would need to find out how that audio is encoded, figure out a way to use the audio processor at the same time the game does it and then have the free resources to do so. I would say the chance that this is done anytime is as low as GC usb loading itself, maybe even lower.

I personally hope this uses the gamecube memory card and not some virtual device, so I can use it as if I was actually using a disk based backup.
Awesome. I think this is a lot further along than most people would have thought just a couple of weeks ago..
I've got a WODE, but I think this could be better and free in time. Maybe the future will see the GC mem cards integrated into the nand emu allowing lots of space and an easy safe way to backup GC saves. (the only 3 homebrew that allow this have many bugs). Maybe this will allow to cheating in GC games and changing variables while the game runs (see the recent Wii POC vid).
Anyway, I think this is shaping up real nice and fast.
Q... Donation Link ?

They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell". -

Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite+1

@SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme -

A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."+2 -

anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media+1
if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them -
@
BigOnYa:
Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

@BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.
The issue is DRM -
@
cearp:
You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60
