    Project Help with My Pokemon Ranch Project

    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 see if you can identify what your bug bear is...

    First Pictures of Zelda Lego Set - The Great Deku Tree.

    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 sell each branded set for a premium. The pricing...

    Android How to protect data from unauthorized access on Android?

    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 associated with that functionality as in that app...

    '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 combat gameplay, the game has half hearted harvest...

    Android How to protect data from unauthorized access on Android?

    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 had already read up on the 4a. At puchase, I thought...

    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 poorly documented. The first boot can take a while...

    Android How to protect data from unauthorized access on Android?

    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 idiotic code they use to block unlocking the...

    Hacking Hardware Homebrew 10+ year old wii ext. sd issue, might lose my files if done wrong...

    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 tabs. This is a copy function, despite being...

    Android How to protect data from unauthorized access on Android?

    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'.

    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 use one of a few, modified, high numbered custom...

    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, which wants to gather and sell as much data from...

    [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).

    [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 updated vanilla USB 'driver' for Wii, and came...

    Hacking Hardware Wii RVL-001 Sound but No Signal on Video

    You could test with a component video output cable. Consider that each of the three colors carries picture signal over an RCA cord, so you can even plug one of them into the yellow RCA video input you've been using, if your display lacks component in. The cords themselves are less than $10 from...

    [Error] Nintendont + WiiFlow

    My folder structure for Nintendont on USB is usb:/games/(gamename) [(gameid)]/game.iso That is, every gamecube game filename is game.iso, except for the multidisk ones. Your issue might be something else, so just give that a shot with one iso as a test.

    Donkey Kong Country Returns without wiggle controls?

    Looks like people patch the game iso in order to make the modification you're interested in. See https://gbatemp.net/threads/help-with-patching-dkcr-iso.565607/ https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-wiivc-injector-script-gc-wii-homebrew-support.483577/page-216#post-7661777 Not clear if there's...

    Here's the thread for that https://gbatemp.net/threads/riivolution-patch-ikenie-no-yoru-english-translation-for-wii-100.561324/ It looks like there's a 1.03, and the package has a readme that tells you how to implement it.

    emulator N64

    My understanding is that the recent advances in PS1 emulation on Wii are attributable to someone taking the time to port over a dynamic recompiler. N64 emulation on Wii already has (a) dynamic recompiler. N64 is also a more powerful piece of hardware than PS1, that's already near-miraculous...

    Bricked Wii Help

    So the portion of the log that you included just shows the initialization, and confirms that Old Wii (or whatever that 2011 hackmii installer ran on) is boot2 bootmii compatible. It doesn't reveal if you actually installed bootmii - it's not confirmation that you did not. A boot2 bootmii boots...

    I'm doing good, just made my first drink of the day, so better now, Captain and Coke today. I had to cut grass all day, then get my hair cut. I messed with my wifey, she knew I was going to get hair cut, and I went and bought a purple dyed wig, and came home wearing it, she freaked out, thinking I dyed my hair purple, was funny.

    Damn, I haven't been on here in while. My wife and I went on a mushroom trip like 10 years ago. A friend had a PS3TV with the glasses and some racing game. It hit when I was playing the game and I freaked out because I thought I was really driving and crashed.
