Now, let’s see what the official “info” file included in this archive has to say about what’s included (and then I’ll simplify it all): Content: 7z file, so you’ll need the free program 7zip to extract it. So, let me try and break it down for you.įirst of all, it’s a. There are lots and lots of files here, but you won’t need them all– probably not even most of them. When you extract this folder, unfortunately, it will look anything but simple. My goal of these tutorials is to simplify the Wii modding process as much as possible.

Running games (and emulators) with WiiFlow, that’s what! Abz’s WiiFlow MasterMod PackĪ member of the Wii modding community made a useful compilation of everything you’ll need to install on your USB hard drive (or SD card) with Wiiflow. So you’ve got WiiFlow running on your Wii, congratulations! Now what’s next? Especially given all the improvements possible using dolphin above the original in game renders.Click here to read Part 1 of this guide. Sure it meant initial load time for the game itself was longer but the results were well worth it.

Metroid Prime I believe was another 'unicorn' title that had shader issues that were resolved by the Dolphin update that prebuilt shader caches at launch.

Eventually as you played it was flawless to the point that now Dolphin (with a full shader cache) is now the format standard for TVC tournaments given all the enhanced graphical options it lends. Tatsunoko vs capcom I believe actually used hex values or something to assign shader values to its models and when you did supers with all the rainbow effects or specials for the first time slowdown galore. Some games on dolphin had notorious slowdown the first few times animations or objects appeared as it loaded shaders. My biggest thrill was when the update to Dolphin hit that built shader caches up by more or less running a little list and creating in prep a shader cache of most all possible colors. I think Ace Combat 5 especially still has some major issues, so I'm gonna keep playing my disc on my phat PS3 or rip it and play the ISO on a cheap modded PS2 for the time being.

If I could figure out how to do that, I'd be happier, but emulation for a lot of that stuff isn't perfect yet. and then Steam, as it occasionally does, randomly deleted all of them. It wasn't perfect, but it was dang close. I even figured out how to make them exit back to Steam link. I could run each game with its own specific PCSX2 settings directly from Steam. I painstakingly put every single one of them into my steam categories. The biggest problem I'm facing with PC emulation is that it's super finicky. Give me an Xbox One-like experience but for any game on any platform, playable on my TV. I wish I could stick literally everything on a single unit that requires one controller button press to boot up into a menu where I can play anything I want. I also used Swiss to extract my GameCube saves. I can boot the BIOS, browse memory cards and see a game before running it just like the real thing. I'm assuming it's required to get the GameCube boot screen when every GameCube game boots, which I've enabled for added authenticity. There isn't much that can be done with this 2MB file, but it's nice to have. I used Swiss to back up my GameCube BIOS. These saves were on my original GameCube, moved to Dolphin a few years ago, moved back to the console around a year ago to get ready for the GCVideo X and then brought back to the PC just before starting this project! Most of those were NTSC saves, so they'll remain dormant for now. I thought I’d already consolidated my GameCube and Dolphin saves from over the years, but I found a really old collection of saves on Dropbox last night where I could track the lineage. I've continued optimising my virtual Wii and GameCube experience and I think I'm all done, at least for now. I have my WaveBird and GameCube controller adapter for Wii U sitting around, ready for the next portion of this process. I'll do more research to decide whether to play GameCube games from my GameCube NAND (if it's even possible yet) or use this existing Wii setup. In the near future I'll consolidate data from all my GameCube memory cards. Both games read the saves from my Wii NAND.ĭolphin, my games and my saves are all stored in cloud storage as a built in insurance policy. I've tested DKC Returns and Skyward Sword. Dolphin allows setting a default game and switching games as if you’re inserting a different disc. Instead of simply running games in the emulator, I run my console operating system. One firmware update later and now my real Wii Remote and Nunchuk are good to go.

It is a sensor bar with Bluetooth powered by USB. I bought the Mayflash DolphinBar when it released a few years ago and finally took it out of the box for this occasion.
