If it's DIOS MIOS > v2.10 it shouldn't affect the disc channel. 2.11 was the last version released.

You can't have more than one MIOS so if you don't want DM anymore you can use ModMii to download the original one. It's on download page 1 under "M10".

There's really no reason to use DIOS MIOS anymore as Nintendont is derived from it and is more compatible and feature-rich.
i remember the releases a 1-2 years ago when in nintendont had a message saying WHAT STUFF NINTENDONT WILL NEVER support. that list today only has "gamecube player" (which i ask how it would support it since the console has no way to insert a gba game)
nintendont didnt support audio streaming or real discs or a lot of other stuff...

nowadays it's so complete... i should install the original MIOS, but i also don't know what for..

anyway. what happened to devolution? was it actually perfect like i heard?

I think devolution fell by the way-side after Nintendont got audio-streaming support. The anti-piracy hurdles became not very worth while to deal at that point since Nintendont did pretty much everything you could need without the hurdles.

It's pretty good, Melee runs really well, fast load times, fast save times. Nintendont is noticeably slower even with speed limit removed, and devolution doesn't have that awful beep when selecting a character.
Though probably more annoying is that in nintendont the control stick sometimes moves by itself, it just works as intended in devo.

I know nintendont is better, and I AM USING IT, but IT STILL CRASHES WITH MELEE, thus making it unusable with my current setup. I probably have 2.11, I just want to know if this means any gamecube game that I have will be runnable through the disc channel if it is not dios mios compatible.

No. DIOS MIOS replaces the original MIOS so if you want the disc channel to function natively again I think you have to reinstall the stock MIOS. As far as I know DM doesn't completely bypass its patches.

Nintendont should not be crashing with SSBM. Check your disc image and see if it's good.

it works just fine with dios mios, and nintendont is known to have issues with audio looping in melee (as said on their compatibility page), so my guess is this is whats causing the crash. Plus I don't want to have to re-mod all my custom music again into a new image. might just stick with DM for melee and nintendont for everything else, including retail discs.

It doesn't have audio issues with any games now. Nobody updates the wiki anymore. :) If you're having audio issues with any games with Nintendont you should check the MD5 hash for the ISO and make sure it's valid. Usually streaming audio problems are caused by shrunken/misaligned games, but SSBM doesn't use streaming audio.

ok, I will check when I get a chance. Would using something like cleanrip on a melee disc work instead of just using the one from a site? It worked for my guitar hero 3 iso and other ripping apps had issues.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
