WII EMULATOR MAC EWDDIT HOW TO
you have a disc that you can boot with any available loader ( but requires an IOS with the sign checking bug ), and the disc contains all your roms, and your emulator knows how to read these roms. basically i gutted the normal DVD reading stuff in the emulator and replaced it with a devotab that can read the wii disc structure.Īnd from there, youre golden. i started out by using this devotab, but soon found out that it wasnt the best for what i was doing, so i re-wrote much of it and slimmed it down. there is an fst devotab in ftpii & wiixplorer that allows reading this structure. Then you need to make your homebrew able to read this structure. and if you want to store roms on the disc and allow your program to read them, you need to store them in the wii disc structure as well since your disc is already in that format. So, you want to make a disc image that has your homebrew as its main.dol. The only way to have a wii-mode disc that will be shown in the system menu and can be booted from any game loader is to use the wii disc structure, with partitions and encryption and whatnot. This should allow even the noobiest of noobs to create an emulator disc. If I can find all the necessary source code, I will try to remember to post a compiled dol and/or pre-built ISO ( without roms ). "DATA/files" in wit is the same as "DVD:/0" in the fst devotab. Because of this, the filesystem will appear a bit different when you load it in the emulator. The path is just a way to deal with imaginary files. This is to say, there really is nothing in the ISO that says "DATA/files/" is a path. The paths used in the fst devotab and wit while talking about the ISO are not actual paths. it should spit out a complete game image. whatever makes you happy should work.Ī) issue the exact same command to wit that you did before. it has to have this path and no other name or folders in it.Ī) simply put all your roms in any folder structure inside "DATA/files/". now is a great time to change that name if you want to.ī) save that as "DATA/files/opening.bnr" inside your extracted files. this is the text that will show when you use the system menu. you can see the name right there near the start of the file. this wont work for all wad banners out there, but theres a good chance it will. then i unpacked the wad, opened the 00000000.app in a hex editor, and chopped off the first 0x40 bytes. i just found a wad for a snes9x channel floating around on the interwebz. if you start the system menu with a trucha-bugged IOS, you will get the "gamecube" banner but it will still boot the emu.Ī) i kinda cheated on this step. booting this game should start your emulator. this is the default name shown in most homebrew loaders.ĭ) now you should have a wbfs file with the emulator as the main.dol. * the name here will not be shown in the system menu. wit CP /media/wiiHDD/wbfs/snes9x.wbfs -region=1 -ios=36 -id=SNSE9X '-name=Snes9x emulator Disc' -modify=DISC,BOOT,TMD,TICKET

you need to make sure to use an IOS that has the fakesigning bug, the correct region ( or just let wode patch that ), and a TID that the system menu will accept.
WII EMULATOR MAC EWDDIT UPDATE
i used wiixplorer as a guide for this part.ĭ) remove the update code so that if snes9x ever gets a newer version, you wont be bothered to update every time you play your ISO.Ī) using wit, unpack the homebrew ISO templateī) go into the folder where you extracted the files and find "DATA/sys/main.dol" and replace that with your modified emulator.Ĭ) recompose the ISO.
WII EMULATOR MAC EWDDIT INSTALL
1) Editing the emulator ( this is without a doubt the hardest step ).Ī) Either build the fst library and install it or add the files to the source code of the emulator.ī) maybe not necessary, but change the entrypoint of the emu to 0x80004000 to match official dols.Ĭ) tweek the emulator so that it correctly uses the new "DVD" devotab.
