Crazy Intro v0.5b (Wii Application)

Crazy Intro is an autoboot homebrew to use along with Preloader. You can use Crazy Intro to customize the opening of your Wii. You can display your selected picture and play the music of your choice at each start of your Wii. Also you can assign your frequently used channels to the directional buttons on the Wiimote. You can use B button to quickly access homebrew channel.

Changes:

Using GRRLIB 4.0
Able to use effects fully configurable using the config file
Picture size & position is configurable and press this and that stuff can be used too…
Reset button leads to the system menu to overcome the wiimote sync issue with preloader.
If there is no custom stuff on the sd card then displays a default intro
All resource files should be in a folder named crazyintro in the sd card, and program no longer uses default names for sound and picture. Everything is configurable in the config file.
Supporting 16/9 aspect ratio (?)

Wii-Tac-Toe v0.5 (Wii Game)

Wii-Tac-Toe is a Tic-Tac-Toe game for the Nintendo Wii. It was programmed in C++ using devkitPro along with GRRLIB.

The game can be played alone vs the CPU or with a friend using one Wii Remote controller. The game AI does not always do the same moves, so the fun never stop.

To win the game, you have to place three marks (O or X) in a horizontal, vertical or diagonal row. If the grid is filled completely and no one has won, well, it’s a tie game. Start over and try to beat your opponent.

Changes:

Italian translation
Hide the cursor when IR is not valid
The cursor has a shadow
New button in the HOME Menu
Widescreen support, cursor hotspot and PAL 576i bug are all fixed with GRRLIB 4.0.0

AnyTitle Deleter DB v1.0 v3 (Wii Application)

AnyTitle Deleter DB uses tona’s AnyTitle Deleter and adds several features.

Its main purpose is to list all titles (such as channels, IOS, etc…) and allow the user to delete the ones he/she wants to get rid of.

Red Squirrel released AnyTitle Deleter MOD which used an external database to associate the cryptic title IDs (such as “HAXX”) with a meaningful name (such as “Homebrew Channel”). AnyTitle Deleter DB uses his database format to achive the same goal but adds support to read the title’s name from the titles banner.bin file which is stored internally in the Wii’s NAND. Not all titles have a banner.bin – actually only channels and about half of all game saves do – but combining the banner.bin names with Red Squirrel’s database allows the user to work with a broder scope of title names.

Changes:

title names can now be read from 00000000.app files found in many (but not all) channels
the Wii is brought into “super user” mode when reading 00000000.app files
likewise “system menu” mode is used to read banner.bin files
updated the ES identification to the one from tona’s AnyRegion Changer
removed the “Directory” naming mode since it was buggy and quite useless
minor corrections in menu code
