libwiigui v1.01 (Wii misc)

libwiigui is a GUI library for the Wii, created to help structure the design of a complicated GUI interface, and to enable an author to create a sophisticated, feature-rich GUI. It uses GX for drawing, and makes use of PNGU for displaying images and FreeTypeGX for text. It was designed to be flexible and is easy to modify – don’t be afraid to change the way it works or expand it to suit your GUI’s purposes! If you do, and you think your changes might benefit others, please share them so they might be added to the project!

Changes:

Changed default sound format to 16bit PCM 48000
Added loop option for OGG sound playback

iiii v1.1 (Wii Game)

The rules are simple. You take turns with another player to drop red or black pieces into the board. Pieces fall in from the top and slide down to stack up on top of each other. The goal is to get 4 of your pieces touching in a straight line (diagonals also count) before your opponent does. This is similar to Tic-Tac-Toe.

This is a 2 player game. Unless you have a split personality, you will need to install a second player (not included) somewhere near your Wii.

Changes:

Tries to load images from path/images/
Red player can switch to second wiimote during play
settiiiings.ini also acceptable as settings’ file name

Frodo v9 (C64 emu for Wii)

Frodo is a Commodore 64 emulator written by Christian Bauer ( http://frodo.cebix.net ). It was ported to the Wii by Simon Kagstrom and does not share any code with FrodoWii.

Put .t64 or .d64 files in /apps/frodo/images on your SD card. The in-game menu allows you to insert disks/tapes, load them and configure the display, joystick ports etc. Saves will be stored on the SD card and the preferences are stored persistently. Wiimote 1 is by default the joystick in port 1 and wiimote 2 the joystick in port 2, but you can swap this.

Changes:

It’s now possible to start hosting a network game “in the background” and continue using the emulator while waiting for someone to connect
Networking support now works (but without sound being transferred). A broker is installed on c64-network.game-host.org.
Link with Yohanes port of SDL, modified by Danny Milo to get USB keyboards working while still having the Home key do what it should
There are sound cracks in this version, caused by the new SDL (unsure why)

Dangerous Files in Circulation (Wii misc)

The WiiNewz community is warning about “dangerous files”. Their original article is linked below.

Quote:

It has come to our attention that there are numerous “joke” or otherwise dangerous files currently in circulation. These include preloader 0.29, several “channel” versions of the USB Loader, etc. that contain “Rick rolls” or otherwise malicious code.

Sorry… this is not funny to some of us.

The majority of the apps are originating from GBAT3mp. The administrators there can no longer keep up with the massive amount of lameness that emanates from their forum. As a result, we are no longer allowing hotlinks to their site.

In addition, there is now a release from “Team Twiizlers” claiming to be a preview of BootMii. It is, of course, fake and will only display a message saying …

“Hello World!

LOL IT WORKS! Welcome to the Team Twizzlers BootMiiOut installer. Normally we would insert a disclaimer here, but the state of the economy has forced us to cut costs.
The installer will install Google Toolbar and IOS1337. We forgot to map the install process to a Wiimote button, so users will need to whine in #wiidev about this issue. Meanwhile, the HOME key will exit.”

Do not install anything on your Wii until has been confirmed legitimate by more than one user!!!

Thanks to http://www.tehskeen.com for the news.
