That IP 195.178.184.79 doesn't look like a local, dynamic one. Are you using a proxy or something like that? It is actually tied to iwconfig.net

Re: Imap email client or browser? - 15 years ago

QuotekieranmullenWrong. Pop3 retrieves the email.(...) Pop3 downloads emails within your specifications (last X days worth of messages, last X messages or messages under X size) Imap downloads the headers only you specify (last X days etc) into temporary memory, and downloads messages as you view them. POP3 and IMAP are both protocols that allow you to download Emails. Nobody ever said, they

Re: Recording phone conversations - 15 years ago

QuotekieranmullenOne person said it was not allowed but failed to say where. In the anyway U.S. federal law allows recording of phone calls and other electronic communications with the consent of at least one party to the call. That person was propably me :D I assumed it would be a law in every sane counrty, that no one can be recorded in any form withuout permission, in general. Anyway,

Quotebredav As I have a Wii with 4.0e, I can't install BootMii as Boot2 System Menu 4.0 does not rule out BootMii as boot2. Your version of boot1 is the only thing that matters. Did you try to install BootMii as boot2?

Re: C++ question [SOLVED!!!] - 15 years ago

QuoteArikadoI certainly don't want people who use my sprite class to have to hunt down a proper C++ Standard Library to be able to compile and run my platform independent programs on their OS. I think I'll keep my linked list. Well, vector should be avaiable on the Wii (devkitPro / PPC), and is definitly part of all big linux and windows compiler suites. And I bet, you would even hav

Quotewiiguy(AFAIK) Nope, the PAL version's number is higher than the US version number. You could go from US to PAL, but not the other way around. He should be able to go to 4.1J then. (he can go once around the world, but never come back) What about Korea?

Interesting. Any idea how or where I can read more about that?

Re: C++ question [SOLVED!!!] - 15 years ago

Yes (and no). The C++ and C standard library functions should be avaibale on all platforms / toolchains But of course nothing is forcing anybody to actually port them.

Re: How do I know what I have? - 15 years ago

QuoteSifJarNote: Jap is actually also NTSC, but it is different to NTSC/USA, they are not cross-compatible. Both NTSC (N and J) variants are compatible to each other, at least picture wise. The major differnce is the level of black. NTSC-J should look a little bit to bright on U.S. televisions. The reason why Japanese games do not run on US systems or vice versa is only region locking

Re: Memory subverting [idea] - 15 years ago

QuoteSifJarIt MAY be possible, by patching the game loader to use SD in place of NAND I think changing an IOS would be the saner Idea. It could catch all games that use that IOS at once, and all games already use IOS for that. Otherwise one would have to replace or redirect every call in the game to SD-functions.

Re: Game patching idea? - 15 years ago

QuoteWiiPowerQuoteIs that the way Wii games, that are spread over multiple .dols, use? I don't understand. I described how i am able to load another .dol instead of the main.dol. Yes I see. But in your post (the one I originally aimed the question at) you were talking about Metroid Prime. I assumed you meant: "that is how offical games execute another .dol", not "that is how we can execu

Re: Game patching idea? - 15 years ago

QuoteSteelSLasher Yep thats how its done, How did you find that out? QuoteSteelSLasherAlso, we wont need to change how the resources are loaded since we can patch an ios to check if an updated resource is available locally and redirect the file to that, if there is no updated version the one on the disc is used. That's a good idea.

Re: Game patching idea? - 15 years ago

QuoteWiiPowerBut tell me how many games are there that really need a patch to be playable? I mean stupid stuff like, can't get past level 3 without the patch? AFAIK on the 360: none (but I wouldn't be surpirsed, if there are one or 2, or even 5 examples for that) On the Wii: I know two examples: Super Paper Mario (PAL) (imho minor), and Gutitar Hero 3 (doesn't hinder playback, but

Re: Preloader caused Homebrew blackscreen - 15 years ago

Since you are on 4.0, and you can't install IOS 60, you already have it. And your problem is propably not related to that IOS.

Re: Game patching idea? - 15 years ago

QuoteSifJarWell, could the second dol be moved to SD/USB, and can then be loaded by a patched original dol, and the second dol then has access to SD/USB as well. Would that work? Propably not, because the games are likely hardcoded to use the disc. But in your scenario, that could propably patched as well.

Re: Game patching idea? - 15 years ago

QuoteWiiPowerAs mentioned before, there's already code to load another .dol instead of the main.dol for a game. Yes, but how does that work? QuoteWiiPowerYou will need an internet connection in the future, pc, xbox and ps3 game patches are enough proof for that. Proof for what? You do not need an Internet connection to start any Xbox360 game

Re: Game patching idea? - 15 years ago

QuoteSteelSLasherIf nintendo supported the use of USB drives we could patch the executable on the USB drive instead Also, some games such as the metroid prime wii play controls remake might not be able to be patched via memory since it does an ios swap between loading the savegame and playing it. I had the same concern, thinking about SSBB's Virtual console demos. But I am not sure, ho
