Noticed this in the documentation for Unity Engine which is free and commercial game engine that supports pc, mobile and consoles. I dont have a wii licence so i cant check this but does anyone have any idea what this is? Unity have blatantly decided not to explain what it is in the docs so I am kind of curious of what it is.by SteelSLasher - Homebrew General
Not sure if this has been brought up yet, did do a check on google and it didnt come up. Basically the idea goes like this: start app init networking connect phone to wii (wifi, maybe possible by tethering directly to device to reduce lag???) send sprites to be displayed on second screen to phone via connection send an xml file which states the properties and behaviours of sprites (animatby SteelSLasher - Ideas, requests
Its because PAL and NTSC are different resolution, PAL has a higher resolution than NTSC. You can see this clearly when playing NTSC games on a PAL wii with gecko os because the ntsc game leaves black borders around the screenby SteelSLasher - Offtopic

How can i do this??? i have a few ideas: use a memory patch using starfall or priiloader to replace the kiosk disc ID with e.g Mario Karts Move the disc channel to the very last page and replace it with a custom made channel that works similarly, not sure if the disc channel's dynamic banner can be redone but i can do a cosmetic work around P.S. i understand that there are simpler meby SteelSLasher - Homebrew General
Quotebg4545I don't think that would be possible. I remember someone asking for an Xbox360 guide-like feature but it's not possible because of the way the Wii works. obviously not but we could make it work for homebrew, we just need a middle man app that patches the memory so the app thinks its been running for some time when it hasnt, like hibernating your pcby SteelSLasher - Ideas, requests

do you think priiloader with region free hack will work as alternative? his system menu is either 3.3 or 3.4 as he doesnt have SDHC compatibility and has played mario kart which i believe installs 3.3by SteelSLasher - Homebrew Applications
My friend has a japanese modded wii but this thread has nothing to do with the use of pirated games. He moved to england a few years and brought his wii with him and would use his copied japanese games and only recently he asked why PAL games dont work. I told him instructions to set up homebrew and gecko os (1.9.3.1) and he tried it with a PAL disc which came with a no dvd error but if heby SteelSLasher - Homebrew Applications
I have an idea for an app that calculates the force generated from a punch kick or impact. I just wanted to know if the wiimote is capable of detecting these forces. The idea is that the app takes in information about the object being hit, it needs to know its weight including the wiimote which will either be attached or be put inside inside. The wiimote will have to be attached to the objeby SteelSLasher - Ideas, requests

SDL licensing states we can only statically link if we have a commericial license... so is the Wii exempt... it must be seeing as though the DS and PSP ports are yet to be slaughtered. I was going to ask on the SDL forums but I was worried some prick may charge over here and demand that the Wii port of SDL be eradicated.by SteelSLasher - Coding
QuoteSifJarI dunno, but I also don't see the need to distribute homebrew on physical media. In my opinion it makes it "too easy", not trying to be offensive here, just saying that the easier it is, the more people will use it without research, and therefore the more bricks there will be. But that's just my opinion. Yes but what about those who are not tech savvy in any way, not all peby SteelSLasher - Ideas, requests
I was thinking if it would be possible to distribute homebrew applications via a physical media. I came across the idea that maybe we could pre-install bannerbomb and set it up to run the application. I am not saying we SHOULD do this I am just pointing out its potential, what bothers me is the possibility of brick occuring directly because of bannerbomb.

I am working on a Zelda themed game engine and since i am making a game out of it i need some constructive advice: Graphics style? Already decided it to be 2D but not sure if i should make it ALttP, Minish or custom style. WMP? Would the WMP add enough to the game to make it viable? Cutscenes? All 2D Zelda games had cutscenes with ingame sprites, i was thinking animated cartoons to aby SteelSLasher - Ideas, requests
i am working on a zelda game engine for wii with wiimote and gcpad support, i have finished drawing functions, collision detection (a bit buggy because of the alttp sprites) and a thread look-a-like (its similar to threading but i have made a simpler and probably more stable method) oh an i do plan to make a game out of it (a proper game with storylines, yes i said "storylines" as in plural),by SteelSLasher - Ideas, requests

You could also use it for commands on the actual menu and develop some training software that saves your file on the sd card and then the internet browser would detect and use this file! thanks for the complement,by SteelSLasher - Ideas, requests
