    Very cool. You seemingly cast a wide net so here's a barely better than random idea: Modify the individual varying pieces of otherwise vanilla D/P ROMs you're using for testing to unmatching versions (provided it wouldn't change the filesize) to...

    We have cracked open My Pokemon Ranch around a year ago and have fully translated the Japanese exclusive Platinum version. However, there’s a problem with it that prevents it from being released, which is figuring out how to get the Japanese ROM...

    Remember Lego's patent expired. They used to be able to make money from exclusivity. Now anyone (in China) can make Lego-compatible blocks and sell them legally. So Lego's business model has shifted to branding - leveraging the IP of a partner to...

    I like Shelter https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.typeblog.shelter/, from your perspective as a baby blanket. It sounds like it similarly uses the built in Android (work) profiles function to sort-of sandbox apps. Maybe there's more discussion...

    Exidous replied to the thread 'Seablip', an indie open world pirate RPG, launches into Early Access.
    Played this a bit. It's very similar to FTL, just pirate themed. Your pawns have stations in ship to ship combat, you direct them with the mouse. The basic metagame is choosing between crew damage and ship damage. In addition to the core ship...

    No, last fall when I finally dragged myself to replace my last phone (OG Pixel), I started reading up on custom rom availability on the sorts of devices that were in my price tolerance. When I took the black friday deal for my current phone, I...

    Exidous replied to the thread Hacking Neek2o / emuNAND trouble.
    It sounds like you did those steps correctly. You didn't mention the emunand though. Did you build a compatible emunand and put it in the correct path (USB, for UNEEK)? neek2o needs something to boot into. neek is also just old and weird and...

    Oh dear... Thanks for the detailed replies! @Blauhasenpopo will be pleased to see I was wrong. Always the same trouble. I write a long post like an essay, cut away parts to at least partially evade the "too long didn't read" problem and end up...

    Ah, I got a 4a as well. On this side of the pond they sell gimped Pixels as well - if it's from a carrier (cheaper) rather than Google (full MSRP, but unlockable), it has an un-unlockable bootloader. I lucked out/accidentally cracked whatever...

    No, you use the Drive 1 Drive 2 tabs. Set one (using the dropdown) to your external hard drive, and the other to the destination drive you want to copy to. Then select the contents to be copied and use the Transfer button in the ribbon under the...

    I was alluding to my lack of knowledge about what software will be needed, on top of the ROM, to achieve OP's desired result. I don't get much further than 'sounds like it will include encryption'.

    Exidous replied to the thread Scrubbed WBFS Dump to Menu - But Not Converted ISOs?.
    Nah, your guess is incorrect, you aren't looking to "match" IOSes to dumps. Wii Backup Manager shows the default/intended IOS that the unmodified game uses. If you're on System Menu 4.3, you have all of the vanilla IOS. Modern Wii backup loaders...

    Exidous replied to the thread Android How to protect data from unauthorized access on Android?.
    It sounds like your security focus is more on the lock/unlock meatspace vector, but might I redirect some of that suspicion upward. Smartphones have been designed to serve the interests of their vendors. In the case of Android, that's Google...

    Exidous replied to the thread [Error] Nintendont + WiiFlow.
    I'm not surprised. Wii likes FAT32, 32k cluster size. Not exFAT. I didn't know anything on Wii even supported exFAT. WiiBackupManager can format a usb hard drive appropriately, as well as split games for transfer (given 4GB filesystem size limit).

    Exidous replied to the thread [Error] Nintendont + WiiFlow.
    If it's a dated softmod, you may want to rehack it with Modmii. I see you're using a more modern version of Nintendont than I am, but it may be expecting/configured for a more modern cios than you have on your Wii. I believe IOS 58 is the most...
