While it's great to see all this people starting to contribute I really wish LoPsT would emphasize how unstable the wiimote code is right now.

unstable!?!?
go here on your wii to see the use of d-pad 1-2-a-b- - -+ butons www.wiicade.com

Do you realize that flash code and homebrew code are miles apart? Support for the Wiimote in homebrew is in its infancy right now.

so is wiihomebrew and wiipaint uses wii motion controls so its farther than flash code and also use home button

[misticknight]

is this like the SNES9x one where you have to press1 and 2 on the wiimote for the emulator to launch, cause although it takes like what, 2 seconds, it's still very annoying.

You completely missed the point.
The fact is that the code being used for Wiimote support in homebrew is not yet stable. If developers want to include it in their releases, great! But I also think that users should be made aware that it may cause problems.
You should probably go read this:

Also, don't forget that writing code to use the Wiimote with a PC and writing code to incorporate it into homebrew running on the Wii (which is not exactly stable to start with) are two different things.

What i think is that people should just let the creaters do there bisness and enjoy there brilliant work.


Nothing at all can be perfectly stable,

even created by nintendo them selves,

its just a part of the homebrew community to try there best to get there.

Isn't that ironic? That's the very reason why we can run homebrew. :D And, I've yet to have any stability issues witht these emulators.

Very nice release of an already very nice emulator, but apart from wiimote compatability, it still shares the same issues as its base. Crashes still occur in some games, ie. Chemical Plant in Knuckles in Sonic 2 and still no support for saving to front SD, only GC adaptor. One small issue I noticed was that the home button does not work on the Classic Controller, only the wiimote, which is kinda annoying when you want to go back to the menu using the CC.

You sure this plays Sega CD games? For example, Sonic CD? If someone has got Sega CD working, please tell me how to get it to work, because it's not working for me.

[Starscream]

It does not play the CD games, this is a mistake in the news post here.

[weazly]

in for updates

[toas_t]

I'm getting the following error when I select the front SD trying to load roms

"error mounting SD card: 0
Press A or 1 to Continue"

then pressing A or 1 does nothing. The wii becomes unresponsive and I have to hold the power button for 4 seconds to get anywhere :(

Any ideas? I've got the /genplus/roms and /genplus/saves directories.

[Skm]

make sure you have them in the root of your sd card!
saving only works for GC MCs right now.

try to write the foldernames in UPPERCASE. might help..

[Bobelvago]

This is also corrupted [like the new SNES9X update or whatever], please fix :(

[WizardOfOdd]

This looks great, but...

What do you do!?

Unzipped there are loads of files. I'm just looking for the boot.elf or whatever aren't I? I assumed it would be as easy to use at his SNES emulator. Sorry, I don't have a clue what to do.

What files do I need on my SD card? Where do I put them? What folder do they go in? I thought it would just be a folder to stick in apps like everything else, but no...

Cheers.

all we need now is saving and CD support, as most of the games for sega cd are small bins

The newest official version has front saving.

Sorry to ask the same question again, but how do I use this? What files do I actually put on my SD card?

Thanks.

How do you get this to support two wii motes, every other genplus i tried only has one working and apparetly allows 4.
I just was never able to figure it out. Any suggestions?

[Disthron]

I'm sure this has been requested before but I would love to have sega CD support even.... dair I say it.... be able to play actual Sega CD games on my Wii.

I think that would be awesome. Grate emulator otherwise though. I was playing Lethal Enforcers 2 on it to try it out. It's way harder than playing with the controller but way cooler as well.:thumbup:
