Re: VBAGX and System Link Games - 15 years ago
QuoteDanielHueho After all, is probably "only" needed to emulate the system link interface, and the network code of the games does the rest. (Sorry about lame english :P I'm getting worse on this) Something tells me, the "network" code of GBA games can't handle varying network response times. GBA games could rely on a very solid connection between the devices. (I'dby daniel_c_w - Homebrew Applications

I never tried any GBA emulator, but I am surprised, that the Wii would not be powerfull enought to have multiple instances of GBA emulations running.by daniel_c_w - Homebrew Applications

Re: Changing the TItle ID on a WiiDisc - 15 years ago
Quotehumor4funwell that doesn't look at the other game's data, it just sees that there is data. Which can be done by asking the system if it has a any data saved for discID Rxxxxx. Oh yeah, you are right. So my question remains: Can one title access another title's savegames/data?by daniel_c_w - Homebrew General
Re: Changing the TItle ID on a WiiDisc - 15 years ago
I was going to ask a follow up question: Can one title access another title's savegames/data? Then I remembered that Mario Kart does that. It unlocks a driver if you have a Super Mario Galaxy savegame.by daniel_c_w - Homebrew General
Re: Changing the TItle ID on a WiiDisc - 15 years ago
I have a question: Would changing the disc ID even help? Do IOSes only use folders that match the disc ID? Or is the ID also hardcoded in the game executeable?by daniel_c_w - Homebrew General

Re: Switch-Case inputs - 15 years ago
QuoteArikadoQuoteTantricThat won't work at all. If you want to "slow down" you can try sleep() or usleep(). But this still wouldn't help you with what you're trying to do. Funny, I've gotten it work in some of my past games. Usually 150 ends up being some insane number though, but it definitely works.

I have no environment to test it and I find no WPAD documentation, but doesn't any of the functions like WPAD_GetStatus() give you the value of connected Wiimotes? Your program could wait, until it's > 0.by daniel_c_w - Coding
Re: Emulators cut-off sides of screen - 15 years ago
QuoteTheManuelAnalog PC monitors have little or no overscan as (you control that within the monitor's menu anyway) and of course, fixed resolution displays like LCD screens don't either (there is no "scanning" in those) Unfortunately a lot of LCD and Plasma TVs have overscan!

Re: Wii system menu 3.4 - 16 years ago
QuoteHyperHackerUpdates are already sent through WC24. Doesn't Nintendo just send messages to the users about the updates?by daniel_c_w - Homebrew General
Re: Wii system menu 3.4 - 16 years ago
Did somebody take the update apart and look for noteworthy changes? I'd like to see how Nintendo implemented the auto update. Isn't it doubtful to believe that Nintendo will use Wii Connect 24 to signal/start an update. Isn't it more likely for the System-Menu or the IOS to poll for updates?by daniel_c_w - Homebrew General

Re: Wii system menu 3.4 - 16 years ago
QuoteSexyLegsJust a question, if i turn of wc24 will i be able to go to the shop channel? Yes (assuming everything else is alright or up to date) The shop channel does not depend on Wii Connect 24. And I doubt automatic updates will either. (Under German law I actually doubt that Nintenod can force updates)by daniel_c_w - Homebrew General
Re: Wii system menu 3.4 - 16 years ago
QuotecuberAlso what's with people saying it does it automaticly... and then others saying it doesn't. I understand it this way: This update requires user interaction, but it changes the contract, so that the next update will not require user interaction.by daniel_c_w - Homebrew General

Re: Switch-Case inputs - 15 years ago
@SpaceJump: When 2 buttons are pressed do you want them to have the same effect as if they were pressed separately? (example: A: shoot, B: jump, A+B: shoot and jump) Then use a lot of IFs in the right places. Check for the A button where it makes sense in your code, and check for the B button, where it makes sense. Or do you want them to have a different effect? (example: A: shoot,by daniel_c_w - Coding

Re: WiiFit Update on 3.2u system menu - 16 years ago
QuoteArikadoNo, I have an ntsc wii. It doesn't matter which one it is. 3.2 is the best one to be on. 3.2 is the best, without a doubt, but hotzenplotz said, that the Wii Fit update did not raise his System Menu version beyond 3.2.E And you said you got updated to 3.3.E So maybe WiiFit does not update PAL consoles to 3.3.by daniel_c_w - Homebrew General

Re: Online playing on homebrew emulators? - 16 years ago
QuoteiofthestormWell I think if you follow that definition of piracy than running ROMs in an emulator is piracy. Even if you physically own the game, I think you have to dump it yourself for it to not be piracy. Maybe. It depends on the laws of the place where you live.
