The drive isn't going to change anything.

I'll spare a few minutes tonight to look at this, didn't realise anyone was using a IDE-EXI any more

Posted: **Wed Aug 26, 2015 4:26 am**

Playing games though swiss 0.4 using the IDE-EXI is completely broken. No games work at all homebrew on the other hand is completely fine tried Mplayer CE and Snes9x they both work fine and saving works as well

Yeah, because homebrew doesn't require any patches to run from IDE-EXI, it's either built-in or self contained and runs entirely from memory.

I've wondered about that. Does anything else like addressing limitations, restrict the maximum size of homebrew or hacked games? Considering the optical drive's hardware isn't a factor.

I don't know of such limitations, as long as it fits in RAM it should work (that includes the memory used and the size of the (uncompressed) executable).

That's good to hear. The idea taken to its most absurd conclusion would be swapping data between RAM and the EXI-IDE, to write 2TB homebrew.

I was trying the new command line support and was testing a simple homebrew (the libogc template) with this code:

Code: Select all

if (argc){
	int i;
	for(i=0; i<argc;++i);
	{
		printf("Argv %d: %s\n",i, argv[i]);
		waitA();
	}
}

For some reason the program crashes and I'm clueless why, looking at swiss source I can see that the last argument will not have a terminating null character if using .cli files for arguments, but this happens with a dcp file as well.

Any clue?

You have a stray semicolon on your for() line, it will only call printf once and try to dereference an invalid pointer (argv[argc]).

Now, that is embarassing, thanks for noticing that semicolon, I was so focused and assuming the problem was elsewhere I didn't even see that simple mistake was there.

On the other hand, I don't know how .cli files for argument passing where intended to work, but assuming they are just plain text files with an argument in each line, the last argument won't have a terminating null character with the current code.
If cli files are intended to be generated with some program that adds it to the file, then the code is fine I guess.

Guess I've used too much unix and assumed that there would be a newline at the end of the file. I'll need to check that.

I've used linux before, but as a windows user it feels weird having a newline at the end of a text file.

I made this changes so no newline is required, there's probably a better solution though.

Code: Select all

...

char *cli_buffer = memalign(32, size+1); // +1 to append null character if needed
if(cli_buffer) {
	fread(cli_buffer, 1, size, fp);
	fclose(fp);
	//add a terminating null character for last argument if needed
	if (cli_buffer[size-1] != '\0'){
		cli_buffer[size] = '\0';
		size += 1;
	}

...

Thanks a lot!

Great job on the cheats they work great!

Do you guys think we will ever get muti-disc support though swiss using WASP/WKF? This is a problem for me since I replay the resident evil games a lot

Nice!

Can someone please help me? I can't seem to get cheats to work. I have r330, and downloaded .GCT from geckocodes.org, but if I choose "Cheats" in the game window, it says "No Cheats File Found", and if I try loading the .GCT first, it says "Unknown File Type".

First off I would like to say I absolutley LOVE swiss and I've been using it for a long time. I'm wondering if there is a chance we will ever get audio streaming support for the wiikey/wasp? I see it was recently implemented for SD and IDE. Do we have a chance of ever seeing this or is it a limitation of the wiilkey/wasp?

Posted: **Fri Oct 16, 2015 11:43 pm**

I had a quick go at adding it for WKF/Wasp but it doesn't seem to behave with interrupts so I ripped the code out for it. It's not worth the effort.

Damn. Thanks for the reply. I keep a second gamecube around just for the audio streaming games. It makes just using a Wii very appealing

Noooooooooooooooo

. I was still eagerly awaiting the new swiss release which included audio streaming. Saddest news I've red all day, but certainly understandable. Maybe the future has a drive replacement more capable/complete (reading and writing) than wasp/fusion feature wise.

I bought a 64GB microSDXC card. The wiki said that the wiikey fusion is compatible with up to 64GB SDXC. I tested multiple micro to sd adapters, but none of them worked. It always gets up to the "init wiikey fusion" stage, but it never loads the menu. Is this a problem with swiss or the wiikey fusion in general?
