Coding and making is great fun. At Bytes N Bits I'll show you how to code your own games and build your own electronic projects. I want to make it fun to learn so I don't use standard 'lessons' where you simply study a single topic. Each project leads you through the complete process of programming or making a real game or device. On the way you'll learn all the tips and techniques you need so that you can start creating your own masterpieces.
Make sure you also check out my website at bytesnbits.co.uk for more information and help.
Excelente video, it's so well explained that who is watching can also understand what is happening and why, and not just follow the instructions. You've done a very good job in making that guide into a tutorial video!! I just hacked my DSi following this tutorial and it works great, but there is only one game that I tested that is not working, even with Unlaunch, that is Donkey Kong Country (USA) for SNES. I tested other SNES games (such as Super Mario World and Chrono Trigger) that works good, so I wonder if it's just a DK ROM issue.
Your 3ds video has the comments off so i will post this here. How can i tranfer my already existing DS game save files to nds forwarder? I successfully transferred the roms but the actual save files i had are not there
trying this with a pi 4, after running sudo ./fbcp-ili9341, the screen stays white and a gray line appears on one side. any fixes? i used this config cmake -DILI9486=ON -DGPIO_TFT_DATA_CONTROL=5 -DGPIO_TFT_RESET_PIN=6 -DSPI_BUS_CLOCK_DIVISOR=30 ..
I think this video needs updating. The newer versions of the Pi OS miss part of the code the driver depends on. You could try installing an older version of the Pi OS. You'd need to use one from before the start of 2024.
@@BytesNBits i used retropie from 2022 but i ran sudo apt update, could that have updated it so that it doesn't work? either way im gonna try reinstalling retropie later, thanks
I find batocera on Pi 4 very unreliable, sometimes it recognises controllers, sometimes it wont recognise any (so you cant set them up even) and I have all my roms on an external drive, sometimes it recognises them, but usually it doesnt. I have spent hours trying to just overcome these basic things, including fresh installs. Recalbox i find way more reliable, but I would like to try all the options to see what I prefer.
Wheb i get to the screen to click up to highlight install home brew channel it does not move curser, its just stuck on exit, any help would be much appreciated, i bpight this wii for my 6 year old daughter, really want to get it up and loaded with games for her.
Make sure your WiiMote is still connected (there should be a light on it). Are you using an original controller. Some of the third party ones don't work as well with the homebrew.
hey man thanks for the easy-to-understand video, however, I still have 1 question whenever I turn on the 3DS XL (with or without the SD card in) I still have a lot of DS games only that it will not let me play. can I still play them or are they just dead files? any homebrew apps I can get to fix it? It says "Please recreate the forwarder with the correct ROM path." thanks!
Okay I figured out that my Wii isn’t connecting to the internet for sum reason. Can I just reconnect on another connection and retype in the dns or restart the entire thing?
Great video. I boot my sd with the RaspberryPi Os but in the middle of the installation It didn't respond so I disconnect the power from my Raspberry Zero 2w and when I plugged again it didn't recognize the card and the light didn't blink.
Make sure you've got the cIOS files installed. Or run this alternative hack - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8RdwHT3C16E.html. It installa a fuller set of software that might solve your problem.
Yes. The R4 card pretends to be a game. So the DS just thinks its starting a game which then takes control of the system. Take it back out and you're back to a normal DS.
i am using stm32f302r8 and waveshare(ili9486) rpi 3.5 inch display and sd card module and i am using arduino ide to program and i am able to display a text from the file present in the sd card could you please help me on how to display image
Launchbox has a great Mame installation system. Get hold of a rom set first, then install Launchbox, then run the Mame installer inside Launchbox. Have a look at ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KkLosR5Zx3E.htmlsi=K7TBy58pa3XYJw_2
I have been messing around trying to get launchbox, mame. I extracted the roms and only 40 were even recognized I deleted them and left them zipped and it picked up a lot. I got the box art etc... to work but when I would click to play it would flash a black screen and go back to the game page.. I finally gave up for the day I tried yo get mame to play it alone...I guess I will delete it all tomorrow and try again .I may have got a bad set of roms? any Idea why it wont play.
It sounds like you've got a mismatch between your Mame version and romset version. Make sure you download a romset where you know what version it is. When you install through Launchbox make sure it's got the right version number selected. Things should work much better. Good luck!
You can remove the X Clamp far more gently by placing a small, 3mm flat head screw driver, from above, between the post and the outer edge of the clamp and carefully levering it away from the post. Just pay close attention to how the clamp moves away from the post. You only need to do two sides then the opposite two sides will easily slide out.
when i do the ios2god convert, i have a 64gb usb im using and its saying i dont have enough room for the install and then cancelling itself? any idea why
The install process ends up making a couple of copies of the game so it does use some space. I tend to build the GOD package on my PC hard drive and just copy over the end result.
Very tidy introduction. I am having an issue getting it to install. The system keeps freezing almost immediately when starting up. Usually between the two Batocera spash screens furthest I have gotten was opening the settings menu and moving down the menu a few clicks. I have tried on two different USB sticks (one very cheap and one expensive but old). I have in the past been able to run Ubuntu and a couple other OSs off them without issues like this. Is Batocera particularly demanding of read/write speeds to the point it freezes the system before I can install the ISO onto the SSD or might there be some other reason for my issue?
You do need to have a reasonable USB stick for it to run smoothly, but I'm not sure if a slow drive would cause it to crash. It might be the drives have some errors on them. If you can try another drive that should answer the drive question.
On your sd card there is a folder called bootmii, you can rename this folder to something else (don't delete it in case you need to use BootMii in the future). Or inside that folder there is a file called bootmii.ini. You can edit that file with notepad or similar, you just add the following linea to the end of the file. AUTOBOOT=SYSMENU
I want to connect my RGH to the internet but not Xbox LIVE. is it safe? I don't want to get banned. I only wanna connect to the internet to download cover art and the GOD format script.
Check out my RGH installation video. After the hack I set it up and block Microsoft Live access. Once that setting is turned on you can connect to the Internet and use it safely.
Could I bypass the copy to flash drive then copy to HDD process by connecting my HDD directly to my pc and extracting the ISO's directly to the hard drive?
I'm not sure. The XBox does some funny stuff on the hard drive to lock it to the specific XBox and I don't know if RGH blocks this. I don;t know for sure but there might be a risk of overwriting some important info. Please have a look around for someone who knows.
These tutorials are Gold but with this one I ran into a couple of issues: 1)- Nintendont didn't save the edited settings as shown in the vide. 2)- I had issues launching the GC games from USBLoaderGX even tho I closely followed the instructions step by step (spoiler: it was because of that). So, the fixes that worked for me: 1)- if Nintendont doesnt save the setting once you edit them in the menu --> After changing the settings do not exit Nintendont! You must select a GC game without exiting Nintendont (so from it's menu), open it and start playing. Play a few minutes of it and then you can exit. If you go and check on the settings, they should not have reverted back to default. If they are back to default, just repeat the process, maybe increase the playtime. After a while it should save the new settings. If you just follow the video (12:01) the edited settings will revert back as soon as you exit Nintendont, apparently it's an issue (or feature?) that goes back a long time. 2)- if UsbloaderGX crashed after loading GC game from Nintendont --> go back into in "Loader Setting" (in the "Gamecube setting" section) and set the "Progressive Patch" to OFF, not ON (14:46). At least this is what solved it for me, if you are having a similar issue give it a try.
@@lorenzor7993 Sorry to hear about that, I can try but I'll need more info, without a detailed account of your exact situation I'm even more in the dark than you are. ▪︎ Did you follow step by step this guide withoud deviating from it (I need to know if we are on the same page) ? ▪︎ Have you tried running a bunch of different GC games from USBLoader or just one? It's a big maybe but there's a slim chance that one specific game is corrupted. If, instead, you tried with multiple GC games and all crashed, we can cross out that possibility. ▪︎ Do the GC games work if you run them from Nintendont ? Access Nintendont and try to play the games from there, no USBLoader involved. if they play fine that means that the issue is between USBloaderGX and Nintendont (best case scenario). Otherwise, if the games crash / won't start even when launched just from Nintendont, well that could be caused by a number of things.
I did everything you said, but it still does not work. All my settings with the video are the same. I can play and safe GC games from Nintendont. I have tried multiple GC games through USB Loader and they don’t work. The problem has to be with USB Loaders. Do you think I should put Mem Emulation to “on” instead of “individual”?
Now when I start up the games through USB loader, it first pop up the Nintendont screen after that the screen goes pitch black, but when I start up directly throug Nintendont, zero problems.
@@lorenzor7993Yeah, it seems the issue is with USBLoaderGX ▪︎Are you using a USB drive, a USB stick or an SD Card? I've read that, for many people, similar issues were related to the kind of storage unit they were using. Some fixed it by switching from an HDD or SSD to a flash drive, others the exact opposite. I can't verify those claims as I've only ever used an SD card but it's worth keeping in mind that it may have something to do with the support you're using. Back to USBLoaderGX setting... ▪︎You can try going in the USBLoader settings, find the Custom Paths section, scroll down and check that all the relavant paths are correct, SAME exact name as your folders, no Capital letters where there shouldn't be. Set these Paths manually (by clicking on them and navigating your folders), even if they appear correct on the preview: - Homebrew Apps Path > sd:/apps/ - Main GameCibe Path > sd:/games/ - SD GameCube Path > sd:/games/ - Nintendont Loader Path > sd:/apps/Nintendont/ I use an SD Card but if you are using a USB Device I think it will be mostly the same, probably instead of the prefix "sd:" there will be a "usb:" or something similar. You can also try to: ▪︎ Turn off nintendont auto boot in USBloader gx settings. ▪︎ Change "Video Mode" in USBloader gx settings, try to select the other 2 options (force NTSC or force PAL) ▪︎ Reinstall the cIOS (but if you followed BytesNBits tutorials this should not be the issue).
hello sir i treid it have to admit this one is cool made my thing lot more usable but i lost the sound am on a raspbery pi 3b and the audio dont come via the 3.5mm jack
It make not work in all languages (tested in Python and Lua), and unsure if it is computationally worse, but the keepAngleInRange function can be done with a single line, angle = angle % (2*math.pi)
@@jovanmladenovic1270 Yes. You're basically running your Wii from these two drives. You should only need to take them out to add new software to the Homebrew setup.
@@jovanmladenovic1270 You'll need to install some homebrew apps onto your SD card. Please have a look at the video to see what and how to install them.
