Re: Compiling iplboot from scratch?

Regarding the IPL image/patch, just to add more certainty, when I dumped my GC's IPL, it had the same MD5 as yours. As for using devkitPPC r26, I gave it a try and then... IT WORKED ! Maybe worth mentioning in the README? Thanks for helping me, if you need me to test other things while am at it, let...

Re: Compiling iplboot from scratch?

Thanks for the hints! I tried this: GCC + the IPL I found: black screen + no SD card activity clang + the IPL I found: iplboot boots, detects SD card, crashes on loading the ipl.dol (greenish jailbars) clang + the IPL I found + patch commented out: iplboot boots, detects SD card, crashes on loading ...

Compiling iplboot from scratch?

Hello! I'm trying to compile iplboot. Mostly out of curiosity (the provided releases work fine). Although I manage to produce an iplboot.gcb at the end, it does not work (black screen, no SD card activity either). This is what I did to compile it: 1. I had to modify the Makefile to work with powerpc...

Re: CSYNC only directly from the GC

Hey,

sorry for late response, thanks for your replies!

I will make a small sync stripper then.

CSYNC only directly from the GC

Hello, Is it possible to tap into the PAL GC to access CSYNC and not CSYNC over composite (which seems to be the default) without using any sync stripper? A bit like what can be done with a Mega Drive and its Sony CXA1145 video encoder. I vaguely remember seeing a PCB photo with some pins annotated ...

Re: Game Boy Interface

I went ahead and built an SD adapter. Works great, I can see the arguments showing up for gbi.dol when I start it from Swiss now. But the few I tested seem ineffective for gbi-ull.dol (I did copy gbi.dcp to gbi-ull.dcp). Could it be that there are in fact none for gbi-ull.dol?

Re: Game Boy Interface

Any reason why these cannot be started from the Qoob Pro directly? I don't know. OK. - If I understand correctly, arguments can be passed to the software directly from Swiss, given a .dcp file is present. However, by "file is present" am I right to assume that it only works with more adva...

Re: Qoob Chip

Also, I am a Linux user, but I cannot find the Linux flasher, gqoob, anywhere on the internet. Do you know anything about that project? Late reply, but might be relevant for others as it took me a while to track down this information myself a few days ago. The GQoobPro/qoob-flasher/libqoob software...

Re: Game Boy Interface

Amazing software, thanks a lot for sharing it! I just learned about it recently and picked up a Game Boy Player to try. I have two questions though: - At first I wrote the .dol files to my Qoob Pro and when executed it only flashed quickly black and then the GC reset no matter which one of the .dol ...
