Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat? Is it just me or has it all gone a bit flat on the Wii homebrew scene? I don't mean to be critical as the work that has been done has been amazing, but I'm not really sure what there is to look forward to. It seems like Nintendo's updates generate more excitement than anything else... ... now something like wii spotify - that would be the business....http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,40725#msg-40725Wed, 10 Jun 2026 10:33:18 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,58376#msg-58376 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,58376#msg-58376 Arikado OfftopicSat, 28 Aug 2010 02:48:29 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,58357#msg-58357 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,58357#msg-58357 SifJar OfftopicFri, 27 Aug 2010 21:48:00 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,58355#msg-58355 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,58355#msg-58355crap cough*]]> Rocker91 OfftopicFri, 27 Aug 2010 20:46:11 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,54959#msg-54959 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,54959#msg-54959 WikiFSX OfftopicSat, 19 Jun 2010 21:02:12 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,54922#msg-54922 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,54922#msg-54922

I'm pretty sure there is a Neo Geo emulator, and the reason there's no YouTube player is probably because the Internet browser can play YouTube videos already.

And there's even a specialised interface by YouTube designed for the Wii, at [www.youtube.com]

Seeing as Internet Channel is free, and the YouTube XL interface is pretty good, there is no reason for a homebrew YouTube player. Although I think MPlayer CE can do it anyway.]]> SifJar OfftopicFri, 18 Jun 2010 20:09:00 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,54919#msg-54919 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,54919#msg-54919 bg4545 OfftopicFri, 18 Jun 2010 19:25:35 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,54917#msg-54917 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,54917#msg-54917 jlenoconel OfftopicFri, 18 Jun 2010 19:14:18 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,48023#msg-48023 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,48023#msg-48023 SifJar OfftopicTue, 26 Jan 2010 23:24:49 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,48019#msg-48019 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,48019#msg-48019

I only really found out about it today. I knew there was a method being developed for loading NSMB levels off SD card, which would also be used in the next RawkSD, and I had guessed it was using a custom IOS because of some hints dropped a while ago, but I was not certain of all details.

There's another method for loading NSMB levels too. You can (or will be able to, I don't know if they've gotten it to work yet) insert level files in the NSMB save and then load them by a gecko code, but Riivolution seems more smooth.

Where did you see this? I have been following custom NSMB levels a bit, and have not see this anywhere...]]> SifJar OfftopicTue, 26 Jan 2010 22:00:57 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,48008#msg-48008 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,48008#msg-48008

I'm quite interested in all of the above, seems to be a sort of burst of action in the Wii "scene" recently.

I am too! Didn't know Riivolution exsisted until now though, but I find it very interesting now, however!]]> profetylen OfftopicTue, 26 Jan 2010 21:27:34 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,47999#msg-47999 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,47999#msg-47999
There are a couple of pretty exciting things coming out in the near future:

SNEEK : Makes Wii's unbrickable, even those with fixed boot1 (those with fixed boot1 need Priiloader to autoboot to BootMii/IOS, but once that has happened, real NAND is never touched, so everything is done on a fake NAND, meaning its impossible to brick)

Riivolution : Allows on-the-fly patching of any game disc (this was used in the recent Fatal Frame translation). Lets you swap files with files on the SD card in any game, allowing loading of translations, custom levels and textures, custom songs for games like Rock Band and Guitar Hero etc.

Reggie! : Actually a PC program, but its related to Wii homebrew, lets you make custom levels for NSMB, which can then be loaded with Riivolution.

I love anything stat related and plan on having similar tracking in some of my games. an excellent idea for slots too. I haven't even thought of that.

IF i were to do slots (which i probably won't be able to) they wouldn't be anywhere near that in depth (i would be that random number flash a picture guy)... i look forward to seeing what you come up with!]]> mdbrim OfftopicTue, 19 Jan 2010 14:31:47 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,47284#msg-47284 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,47284#msg-47284
1. I haven't coded 'real' code in quite a while, let alone any coding for the Wii.

2. I plan on taking it to a VERY mechanical physics engine, not just selecting a random number and picking a picture for the reel.

3. I want to create a statistical model off of the outcomes to validate the results. In my "HOUSE" the HOUSE may not win quite as much... I'm more interested in creating environment where players (may) know when the last pay off was, what the current contents of the till are, how long the last player played on his initial bankroll, How much the largest walkaway was, etc. so you could look at trends.

4. Feedback from users

5. Multiple machines, Wii-controlled gamblers so the machines get worked, kinda like you don't necessarily want to buy a dozen instant lottery tickets all in sequence.


Anybody can pull three symbols from a hat... payoff/no payoff... I want more of a real/reel feel to it.

I had actually thought of doing CasWiiNo, but like Crisco said, it's kinda getting crazy out there so i went with Casiino. (even though that still violates the ii rule)

Crisco: what would you call it then? i'll admit that when it comes to creative titles... i'm lazy and like the cop out of the ii theme!

dcpyatt: I would be curious to see how you do slots... that would be awesome. I had planned on doing slot poker (since it wouldn't require AI strategy (i'm not that advanced yet!)) but full blown slots was WAY in the future for my plans.]]> mdbrim OfftopicMon, 18 Jan 2010 19:58:49 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,47189#msg-47189 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,47189#msg-47189 Crisco OfftopicMon, 18 Jan 2010 19:01:09 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,47136#msg-47136 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,47136#msg-47136

I have a little different project in the works to help me accomplish this,,, I have called it 'The Casiino Project'. You can follow it via Twitter at [twitter.com] or directly view the journal at [cp.jclay.net]

I call it an experiment in programming and social networking... we'll see where it ends up...]]> dcpyatt OfftopicSun, 17 Jan 2010 18:13:38 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,43073#msg-43073 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,43073#msg-43073 metroid_maniac OfftopicMon, 30 Nov 2009 17:12:13 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,42986#msg-42986 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,42986#msg-42986 cactusjack901 OfftopicSun, 29 Nov 2009 22:09:15 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,42985#msg-42985 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,42985#msg-42985 metroid_maniac OfftopicSun, 29 Nov 2009 21:56:27 +0100 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,42976#msg-42976 Re: Wii Homebrew - Has it all gone a bit flat?http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?14,40725,42976#msg-42976
