An SD adapter costs like $3.
Unless I'm mistaken, the issue with burning GBI by itself to a disc is that the console can't pass parameters to it.

That's easily worked around with appended arguments, the more annoying issue is having to burn and waste discs each time you want to change something or update GBI.
Why should he have to spend three dollars when you can make him an updated disk image for free? Don't be unreasonable, Extrems.
because every change you make with settings you need to burn a new disc.

or when they software got a update
the disc are got rare.
In Germany a 5-10disc package cost around 10 euro
and the boarders, video records and screenshots are not working when use a disc.
the memorycard with sd is easier and faster
If you actually took the time to read the documentation for the software you're using, you'd know that Swiss has an auto-boot feature, which also supports loading command line arguments and the options menu if you want them.DoctorDan wrote: ↑Sun Feb 03, 2019 8:08 amI finally broke down and used my Wii to install the file onto my GC Memory Card, but I'm not pleased about it. It may be a minor quibble to you, but when I power on my GC to play a GB, GBC, or GBA game, it actually ANNOYS me to search through a Swiss menu to load up GBI.
Because your stance is idiotic, suck it up.
You don't have to use Swiss.DoctorDan wrote: ↑Sun Feb 03, 2019 8:08 amI finally broke down and used my Wii to install the file onto my GC Memory Card, but I'm not pleased about it.

What better option for GBI does XenoGC have? I thought it doesn't natively support loading software from a memory card or SD card.Extrems wrote: ↑Sun Feb 03, 2019 5:06 pmYou don't have to use Swiss.DoctorDan wrote: ↑Sun Feb 03, 2019 8:08 amI finally broke down and used my Wii to install the file onto my GC Memory Card, but I'm not pleased about it.

I know it's really, really hard for you...but try not to be a colossal cunt.
You've been warned officially about this post, please keep it tame.
Yeah what was actually being asked for, is right on the money. GBI should be as practical/intuitive to run directly from a disc as the official Game Boy Player software.emu_kidid wrote: ↑Mon Feb 04, 2019 9:47 amYou've been warned officially about this post, please keep it tame.
While I can't begin to fathom how OCD tendencies must make one feel, you're going to have to understand that people put their free time into developing this software and helping you out on this forum, taking minutes, hours or days of their time. Complaining about a few seconds for you to scroll through something in Swiss is petty as you say, so may I suggest you look into autoboot functionality, or you can avoid using Swiss entirely and boot directly to GBI with a appended CLI file with your settings hardcoded.
Well the way I see it, a rudimentary GUI will make running it from a disc practical. Two birds with one stone so to speak.Streetwalker wrote: ↑Tue Feb 05, 2019 12:08 amBut that's not practical in its current state (no GUI for configuration) and no one outside of the GBI crowd actually wants to run any homebrew from a disc, because there's no good reason to do that. SD adapters are cheap and easy to use, and as long as you can boot into Swiss, you can have any set-up you want, including autobooting GBI with custom options. This has been documented and repeated over and over.
Neat. I know I'm too critical of homebrew whose interface (or lack thereof when it's as visually appealing as an MS-DOS prompt) deviates from what's expected of retail games.omikes wrote: ↑Tue Feb 05, 2019 5:02 pmThere is a way to configure the settings from a computer and then making it an autoboot file, or burning it to a regular memory card. Mine is inside of a modified Windwaker save on a regular 59 block memory card, which boots directly to GBI after pressing start after the game disk loads. An additional perk is that the disk can be removed from this point (even successfully reseting without any issues, booting right back into GBI), and without it the Gamecube is quite silent. It would be neat to have a GUI within GBI, but I believe Swiss would be a good option in cases where people will often be changing the settings.
Is there a way you can guide me through this? I am having the same exact issue. I enjoy all other games in 4:3, but when playing gameboy advance, I have to manually change my tv to make it seem more widened. It does not look good perfectly square in 4:3. Please thanks if you can help guide me to fix this issue.wasoha wrote: ↑Wed Jul 11, 2018 8:41 pmThanks, yes I understand about the zoom range and the limits of using 4:3.
And thank you for pointing me in the right direction for configuration. Since I'm new I had no idea what a DOL or a CLI file were, but with that nudge in the right direction I was able to find more info by searching the thread and wiki.
With this wiki page I was able to figure out the arguments:

And from your post here I learned how to append CLI and convert:

I'm all good now, behaving as expected. Start and Play, just how I like it.
So with the Speedrunning version you can still choose between 480p and 240p with the progressive scan screen? And again, is this also possible by the memory card hack or only via Action Replay? I came in contact with someone on ebay that makes dedicated GBI and Swiss memory cards, if being able to do both resolutions is possible with just the GBI memory card with the Speedrunning version I'll go that route and call it a day.Extrems wrote: ↑Thu Feb 07, 2019 12:59 amThey're mistaken. See the default setting for --scan-mode.
Set the video format to NTSC.Xavier_Venir wrote: ↑Fri Feb 08, 2019 4:43 amI'm having some issues running the high fidelity version off of a sd launcher. I keep getting these odd scrolling diagonal lines. I've tried tinkering with the display setting when booting though swiss but not much seems to work. I am currently using original av cables.
