Re: A Small Project I Need Help With - 14 years ago
Well no ones going to write the entire program for you. If you have specific questions regarding writing it though, feel free to ask. Regarding file access limitations: There shouldn't be any. Regarding the cause of the pirate animation: Reading fail. You need to click a check box agreeing promising not to post content related to piracy before starting a topic.

Re: Forgive me, but; - 14 years ago
All versions of GRRLIB except the very first requires that it's license be distributed in any program which uses it. In order to steal credit, Wii Game Studio allegedly bases their product upon the first version of GRRLIB (which is actually pretty crappy in it's own right). There's a legal debate that since GRRLIB was updated with the new licensing measures that this may apply to tby Arikado - Offtopic

Re: Wii Web Server does NOT work with latest version of HBC or DVDX installed. Need help! - 14 years ago
DVDX is merely a title that allows homebrew software to use the Wii's DVD drive to launch DVD discs not signed by Nintendo (ie: Movies). It does nothing for "backups". Before going on, I'd like to take a moment to stress that "backups" of all kinds, legal or not, are not to be discussed on this forum. This is stressed everywhere on the forum. There's no way you could have evenby Arikado - Homebrew Applications
Re: What is the proper way to play a DvD on a Wii? - 14 years ago
Thanks, I didn't know that. I really don't see anything justifying the decision. I think Tantric and I will be having a conversation about this in the very near future.by Arikado - Homebrew General
Re: What is the proper way to play a DvD on a Wii? - 14 years ago
QuoteagoajSo why are applications dropping support for DVDx? They are? I was under the impression the WiiMC and other DVD players supported DVDX, DISC (updated version of DVDX), and IOS202. Every developer knows not to force people to choose.by Arikado - Homebrew General
Re: Problems with Nyko Wand+ - 14 years ago
Even if it does, most developers don't use the SVN builds due to them being cautioned as unstable. Plus, all existing homebrew will need to be recompiled to support the added controllers. So my rule of thumb still holds :Pby Arikado - Homebrew General
Re: Wii64 Beta 1.1 Released - 14 years ago
Dunno what you mean by relevant information. , the official site for the emulator, seems to hit the head on the nail explaining the version changelogs. Basically, there's higher ROM compatibility (Goldeneye 007) and 99% of ROMs are not only working but working at full speed in the last release (Honey edition). Before buying a new SD, tell me, are you saying previous builds were working fby Arikado - Homebrew Applications
Re: Wii Homebrew and ATMEGA32 Microcontrollers - 14 years ago
Unless you plan to involve the actual Wii console at some point, you should probably avoid devkitPRO. There are tons of open source libraries out there for interfacing your Wiimote with your PC via bluetooth. It shouldn't be too hard to adapt one of them into a driver for your micro controller (assuming you can flash C code to it). Best of luck =)by Arikado - Offtopic
Re: Menu in non-graphical homebrew? - 14 years ago
Quotejackos2500Thanks! But, if possible do you know an example using ansi escape codes? There are ANSI escape codes in that code SifJar posted. printf("Choice: %d", nSelected); Since you appear to know what they do, use them as you please. They will all work.by Arikado - Offtopic

Re: Counter Strike on WII - 14 years ago
Quotekckancould we run it as a quake pak somehow?? Thats basically what I suggested in my previous post. If you can find an open source engine (preferably written in SDL) to play the files, it shouldn't be too much trouble to port and get Counter Strike working.by Arikado - Ideas, requests
Re: Wii64 Beta 1.1 Released - 14 years ago
@3rd Party Controller Users Only the original classic controller works with Wii homebrew. The Wii64 developers can not change this. @rick211 Not all ROMs are supported. The one you are trying likely isn't. Wait for the next release.by Arikado - Homebrew Applications
Re: Booting Whiite linux with Bannerbomb - 14 years ago
You may have better results if you install the homebrew channel and then launch the Linux installer from the homebrew channel. Some apps actually won't work with bannerbomb depending the version of bannerbomb you are using and internal settings in your Wii.by Arikado - Wii Linux

Re: Metroid Prime Trilogy Gecko OS Codes Problem - 14 years ago
Make sure the codes you are using are for your region. It's also possible that just one of the codes may be a bad, nonworking code. Try experimenting a bit by removing a code or two. If all else fails, simply having too many codes enabled can cause problems so try removing some.by Arikado - Homebrew Applications

Re: Doubt about IOS202 , DVDX , IOS249 - 14 years ago
In the name of science, here's the clarifications you're looking for: IOS is essentially a kernel. It is a bunch of functions that the Wii can call to use any time. cIOS is any IOS with unofficial or "homebrew" modifications to it. cIOSX is a really st00pid naming convention Waninkoko came up with. The X refers to the method used to install the IOS by cloning an existing IOS asby Arikado - Homebrew General
Re: Counter Strike on WII - 14 years ago
It looks to me like the PSP version of Counter Strike is either a port of an engine which runs the Counter Strike files or they're using a port of DOSBox (which we already have on the Wii) to emulate it. Unfortunately, it seems that any information regarding it is hard to find and I really don't have the time to look into it any more than this.by Arikado - Ideas, requests

Re: New Wii Homebrew idea - Rosary - 14 years ago
I really don't mean to sound rude, but you simply can't do what you're looking to do without a solid foundation of C or C++ under your belt. You said your professional VisualBasic.NET developer and that you got some programs to compile for the Wii already; Thats a huge head start.
