Gamecube/ triforce game patching

[noobcube]

It might even be worthwhile to use ModMii and update to the most recent IOS/CIOSs. Not sure what else to suggest... there is a problem somewhere, either hardware or software. DML and quadforce run fine on my 4.1 system/SD cards.

What I mean about the code dump (above), is that if you're getting a code dump, it is happening before MIOS/quadforce is actually running the game.

yeah ok. I will try ModMii tomorrow.
dont know what cIOS / IOS I have installed... modded my wii a long time ago (when SMG2 was released I made the last update to cIOS)

I only got the code dump 1 time the other times it just freezes. If I change to old game boot style in Dios Mios Booter I got to the gcloader screen and when I hit the power button ... apploader... appears and then the wii freezes.

€dit: the sundriver cant be disabled because its a drive replacement.

Looks like Dolphin supports MKGP2 now, I've got both games working on my Wii. Game play is a bit choppy though, still soooooo sweet to finally be able to check these games out.

[sm4rty]

do you have a drive replacement installed?
I cant get it to work.. dont know why
it simply freezes

After a lot of screwing around I finally did this:

after many difficults to run roms, i finally found the good way to run and play

the process i followed

format SD CARD with FAT 32 and 64kb (you can use windows format or any format tool )

used DISCEX for rom convert
used WIIRENAMER for ROM ID correction (i think this is not something obliterate)


please download following files
DML OFFICIAL 1.5 (released today by crediar)
RVL-BC-V6.WAD
DML BOOTER R22
QUADFORCE 0.1


following step
install RVL-BC-V6.WAD
install DML OFFICIAL 1.5
install DML BOOTER R22

back to HBC menu
launch first time a gamecube rom with DML BOOTER R22 just in order to ensure DML OFFICIAL 1.5 run correctly GAMECUBE ROM

back on HBC menu
install QUADFORCE 0.1

back to hbc menu
launch DML BOOTER R22 and choose triforce game you want to play

for my part
WIIFLOW not detecting triforce game
USB LOADER GX detect and launch them perfectly


many and big thanks to all helped me in order to find the good way to have triforce on wii

hope this little tutorial is simple, understandable and helpfull

.

EDIT
my SDCARD => TRANSCEND ULTIMATE SDHC 16gb CLASS 10
MKGP2 run perfectly with some lag but it's very good

[sm4rty]

thats the same i followed. its from gbatemp.
but for me it isnt working.
neither quadforce nor DML.
it freezes on gcloader 0.4

hmm maybe it shouldnt be that I can play this game ^^

[noobcube]

Although it is a pain, perhaps it is worth trying with the modchip disconnected. Perhaps DML/quadforce are making some calls to the drive which get messed up by the chip?

[emu_kidid]

sounds like I should port this stuff to GameCube if crediar lets me

[sm4rty]

yeah this would be the best you can do
i would be totally happy to play these games on my cube

Well, he's helping the Dolphin team I guess. So thats a good sign. How sweet would that be.

little discovery I made:

Open up the .bin/.gcm/.iso file for MKGP2 in either GCRebuilder v1.0 or GCTool v1.20 and replace all the files named "live_xxxx.dsp" (there are over 600 of them) with dummy data and you will essentially kill that annoying announcer.

EDIT: Also, it seems loading/game speed depends greatly upon the SD card you are using. I never used DML before this so I was largely unaware. I swapped all my files over to a class 10 SD card formatted to 64kb cluster size and I get virtually no in game lag now. Loading time for certain things still takes a bit though.

Does the gamecube have even enough power to run Triforce games?

[emu_kidid]

sure does.

[jlo138]

We'll I was going to make a thread asking about this but I searched first. Any updates as to whether we can get these on the cube? Do we need an emulator for it? I've burned the iso to a disc to see if it would run on my Wii out if curiosity and nope. I then tried on the GameCube with SDML and again, nope. Just a black screen. I figured it was a long shot...

[emu_kidid]

It's on my super long list of things to add to Swiss, nothing yet though.

[nihplod]

Hey any news on this? Does swiss support mario kart gp 1 and 2 by now? I think Nintendon't can run it on the wii, but what about the gamecube?

Nope, Swiss doesn't support it.
