Forcing 576p mode won't work as Wii Swiss Booter needs a small code change to support that. Unfortunately, the author has vanished.

Super Smash Bros. Melee will have its screen cut-off until you select 60Hz mode. I used to have that problem with the game until recently when it fixed itself and I could select that mode. It's weird.

I already had the cMIOS and stuff to play GC games so all I did was transferring the Swiss folder from the Booter zip to my Apps folder and then included that swiss.dol in it. I did try placing the dol at the root as well but it had the same problems.

I just find it funny how it works great with composite but not component.
Can you repost it? The link is broken.

I see some changes were added to the Swiss Google Code svn. Since I can't compile anything, is there any place where I can find compiled versions to test?

Yeah - let me know if you have success with fragmented files on SD.

In my case revision 189 fixed the fragmented files problem. Tried a game that was marked as fragmented on 174 and I'm playing it right now for like 10 minutes. It wasn't marked as fragmented on 189.

awesome - yeah, I don't mention if files are fragmented anymore as it's no longer a problem for most devices, but I just realized since it'll be a problem still for Wiikey Fusion, I'll need to warn there.

testing results of r190 with wkf and dvd drive combo


boot original wkf firmware with wbfs card...
load swiss-r190.iso...
while IPL is reloading (GC main boot screen) remove wbfs card...
...do nothing and wait...
dvd drive will init and autoboot dvd works to display swiss dvd menu...



note: with no disc in drive, no sd card in any slot...swiss will default to main menu....as expected..

note2: the alphabetical order changes:
when loading a dvd from main menu, the TOC is alphabetical order...maybe DVD sort should have the main title listed at the top???

note3: when booting swiss, wbfs card in wkf slot = stack dump


good job emu_kidid....works great with wkf/dvd combo

r190 gets stack dump in wode browser menu with both FAT32 or WBFS drive connected

I'm booting Swiss from a SD card with SDML. When Swiss is booted I swap the SD for a larger, SDHC one.
On r174, Swiss reads SD content again after having selected SD Gecko.
On r195, it doesn't reads the content again so it still displays the files on the SD card instead of the files of the SDHC.

And for those who want Swiss R195, I compiled and uploaded it here and here.

Could you please tell me what new features has this new bild? The only that I noticed is that it gives me an error when I try to select an element from the lower menu. Also, is there any SDML user that can launch burned isos or use the IDE-EXI through Swiss 0.3? If anyone could, please tell me the way you did it. We saw a good work in terms of new options with Swiss 0.3, but I cannot do yet things that I can do with previous releses.

Yeah, I'm going to re-work IDE-EXI support tonight and maybe do a mini-release. Features are mostly GUI bug fixes and fragmentation support in the build up there.

corenting, try r197 if you can, should fix your issue.

The issue is still there with r198. Swiss display the re-init message but it still shows the wrong files. Changing slot is working but re-init is not.

Ok so swapping the SD card (with or without unplugging) at the device selection screen is still showing the files of the first SD card. The issue is confirmed by megalomaniac. He said on IRC that swapping the SD card with an empty gecko or without anything in the slot is still showing the files.
