    Settings Editor GUI v1.8



    by JoostinOnline
    Change your Wii settings.

    Things you can change:
    • Screen resolution

    • Wii remote rumble
    • Screen burn-in reduction

    CHANGELOG
    v1.8
    • Added more USB Gecko output code and fixed grlib output not being shown.
    • A fair amount of code cleanup (it's still messy though, lol) and a couple of safety checks (thanks megazig).
    • Decreased size by about 19%.
    • Missing options are no longer hidden. Instead, clicking on them gives the option to load the Wii Settings to set them for the first time.
    • Menus are now fixed width so changing a setting won't resize it.
    • "Loading Wii Settings" and "Returning to System Menu" won't both be displayed if Priiloader is set to autoboot/return to something beside the System Menu.
    • "Loading Wii Settings" comes after the save prompt.
    • Improved exit process.
    • Improved neek detection so it will still be detected if crediar changes the Sneek directory (thanks tueidj).
    • Changed the selection color (themeless) from gray to red.
    • When loading the Wii Settings, you will only be prompted to save if you have made a change to your settings.
    • Compatible-ish with Dolphin (requires recompile with "#define DOLPHIN" uncommented). You still can't load Wii Settings, but there is nothing I can do about that.
    • Now the theme is loaded before the background fades in, so it will fade in any custom background your theme uses.

    Offline Network Enabler 0.1

    by suloku


    When you set up a network connection trough the wii's system menu, if there's no internet access the connection can't be used, so if you don't have internet access from your wii you can't use networking features of applications like WiiMC, ftpii, wiiload...

    So this application, based on the code of fstoolbox for nand access will allow you to enable and set one of the 3 connections as default, meaning you can use networking without internet access.
    Warning: this application writes to the nand, it has been tested on my wii without problems, it -should- be as trustable as fstoolbox is.

    GameCube/Wii Memory Manager is an application to backup Nintendo GameCube savegames.

    I (suloku) have updated the code to newest libraries to port it to the Wii system, and what I find more important: restoring savegames now works properly.

    Wii Chatter v0.1


    by ThatOtherPerson

    ThatOtherPerson's Notes
    =======================

    Wii Chatter is a chat room program. You post text and people can read it.
    The onscreen keyboard can’t yet switch between uppercase and lowercase yet so it’s going to seem like everyone is screaming for a little while. Fixing that is pretty high up on my to do list. If it really bothers anyone I can make changes on the server side to make everything lowercase well you wait for the next version. Do you think a QWERTY layout would be better? I’d like to also add support for USB keyboards.
    Hopefully it will get into the homebrew browser sometime soon. It’s been over a month since the last batch of games/updates were added. I’m thinking about making a homebrew browser alternative and/or making my games self updating. It seems like there is still a reasonable (though certainly declining) number of people playing Wii homebrew but only a small minority of people visit dev sites like this or even general homebrew news sites to get the latest versions of brew.
    I’m probably going to replace the home menu / dashboard UI I use in all my stuff with not blue versions of the UI elements I made for this. Because of reasons. Any objections?

    ThatOtherPerson's Notes
    =======================
    Here is a port of something else I had made for GP2X. Transitory Vectors is essentially a platformer. You move to the right and jump. But its not really a game. Along with being incredibly short its includes no hazards or obstacles.

    Two Point Five v1.2


    by ThatOtherPerson


    Creator's Notes
    ===============
    I was going to try and work in some kind of basic gameplay and make it into something that I could pretend was a game but its frustrating me right now and I don’t really feel like working on it anymore. Lets just call it a tech demo. Its polygon free and technically totally 2d but it fakes a 3d first person view the same way that old school “3d” games like Wolfenstein 3D, Rise of the Triad and Doom did though its not even as complex as them (it has no textures). the environment is randomly generated and uses the same setup I made for Maze Generator only with a different width and height and some extra random walls removed to make the map less linear.

    You use the nunchuck analog stick to move and the wiimote ir sensor to aim. You turn based on where on screen you aim but turning is deactivated well you hold down the A button.

    I added in multiple screens for options in the home menu because it seemed like it was starting to get overly crowded after adding the PNG screenshot option. Just hit Plus or Minus or click on the left and right on screen buttons to switch menus. It slides nice and smoothly back and forth from menu to menu.

    Goodbye World is a simple non game test tech demo thing that I made for PS3 to familiarize myself with PSL1GHT (it was the first thing I made with PSL1GHT). This is a Wii port of it. It supports the nunchuck analog stick but you can also control the ship using the wiimote’s directional pad.

    ThreePointO v1.3


    by ThatOtherPerson

    Here is something of a successor to that Two Point Five tech demo thing I did. This doesn’t fake it though and is legitimately 3D this time. Unfortunately its even more heavily distorted and things get really weird if you look up or down at too much of an angle and I’ve been failing miserably to correct the problem. I also had to seriously drop the resolution to get the frame rate going well. I dont remember for sure but I think I settled on making it effectively 160×120 but whatever it is the point is that at the usual 640×480 Wii resolution its way to slow for real time gameplay. I dont think its too pixelated to be playable at its current resolution though so I’m not really too bummed out about the sacrifice.

    Anyways its somewhat functional and in the process of making it I reworked a lot of stuff that I can carry back over to improve performance if I return to making a 2.5d game so even if I never fulfill my dreams of making the definitive destructive raytraced voxel based shooter I will at the least have some comparatively nice performance in the event that I get around to settling for making a simple Wolfenstein 3D type game for Wii.

    use the wiimote to aim, You turn based on where on screen your aiming, hold the A button to stop turning, Use the nunchuck analog stick to move and and use the C and Z buttons to move vertically.

    That’s all for now. Just remember voxels > polygons.
