No DMA (yet), that'd require hardware...

Just a quick question i've been thinking of lately:

Is it possible to build Ralph's cheats/codes into swiss? In particular the widescreen codes, would it be possible to add each game-specific code into swiss, thus enabling widescreen without bugs/side effects? Just a thought I had.
Dream mod: HI-speed port device utilizing 4:4:4 RGB 32 bit colour, 720p video and variable refresh rate. :shock:
Favourite mod: GC Loader flashed with latest swiss.
Eagerly awaiting a normal, form-factor wise, wireless controller with rumble. :)

It would be nice to maintain a community cheat db for Swiss... once cheats are fixed. :P

Hi guys, new here, well obviously :P

I've only recently started using swiss through my SDML. I've got the latest swiss through OP, and my issue is, when loading a game and forcing 480p, it ignores it and shows me the 480i message instead. Tried 576p and I get 576i instead too. Is it an issue with the swiss version I'm using? Or is it because I'm using a PAL GC?

quick check: do you have a component cable?

I have a scart cable going through this: http://www.amazon.com/CKITZE-BG-460-Sys ... scart+hdmi.

So I'm guessing even though I have that setup I still can't get 480p through since it's outputting from the analogue output on the GC and not the digital one?

OK,but i have a problem because i cant get to the ipl menu,i cant load swiss at all,i made an sd gecko,and themessage says the object cant be used in slot b,BUT,i bought new wiikey fusion chip,with firmware 1.0 on it,so to ask: can i load swiss,then hot-swap working chip with the bricked one,and then run the recovery iso??

Because,now its not possible to enter the gamecube,it just sticks to the nintendo gamecube logo as soon as i power it on(with the sd card in wiikey sd slot),and without sd card,it goes into the gamecube menus,but i cant load homebrew in any way(because sd gecko isnt recognized at all(object cant be used in slot b)??
Any way with new wiikey fusion to recover a bricked one ,on same gc??thanks

It's normal that it shows this message. The IPL doesn't support SD cards. If you want to boot homebrew you'll need another way to do this (xeno or IPL replacement in a GameCube, or a hacked Wii).

That should work, provided that it's just a soft brick.

Lets Order thing up.
First Lets try to recover your wiikey Fusion. The other one is not needed at the Moment.
Is saw that the readme is gone in the eurasia recovery download. So here are the easy steps which should recover your wiikey fusion:
Download recovery iso from here
http://www.eurasia.nu/mirrors/wiikey_fu ... loads.html
Now download the tool win32 diskimager if you use windows http://sourceforge.net/projects/win32diskimager/
Start win32imager and write the recovery iso directly to the sd card. No formating no wbfs stuff.
Now insert the sd card into wiikey fusion and fire it up. Now you should get back into ipl and Start the recovery tool.

The second wiikey fusion with firmware 1.0 can not Start gamecube isos from wbfs if i remember correctly so you need to update it First to 1.5 or something like that before you downgrade it with swiss again which can be started with a swiss iso installed via wbfs Manager on a sd card.

Very complicated stuff :-)

I know that sourceforge is not that trustworthy at the moment, but i installed it right now and it looks ok (no spyware etc.). Its the official Project site. I should say, that you need to run the tool as adminstrator (right click on the startmenu icon).

I know im iritating and annoying with this, i tried it the first time i posted, but my problem is that i cant get into the ipl,because gamecube freezes at the boot logo,as soon as i turn it on (WITH THE RECOVERY ISO IN THE WKF SD SLOT),or any card with or without any data.
The only way i can get into ipl, is without sd card in the wkf sd slot,and if i try to plug sd card after it enters the ipl,then it cant find any iso,or bootable image,or anything i throw at it (including the recovery).
It just seems that i bricked it in a strange way,therefore i asked can i do the very wkf chip hot-swap,not sd card hot-swap(load swiss from new wkf 1.0,USING SD CARD HOT-SWAP, then when it boots to swiss,UNPLUG THE GOOD WKF, AND PLUG THE BRICKED ONE,AND THEN RUN RECOVERY,FROM EITHER SD GECKO,OR WKF SD CARD(IF IT COULD READ IT) ?
SORRY ONCE AGAIN,I HAVET EXPLAINED IT WELL,I CAN MAKE A VIDEO IF IT IS NEEDED?
THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN.

Hold A during the boot animation to enter the IPL. Also the recovery ISO doesn't behave the same way as a regular wbfs card.
