GCOS Latest Versions

[emu_kidid]

Just putting back all the old releases of the selfboot multigame versions since they were all lost. Also, I am actually going to have a suprise for GCOS users soon... nothing big but yes, sadly it'll be the last thing I'll be adding in as I just don't have the time any more.

The best versions to use are v4.0F+, Patman's version for GUI, or dsbomb for CLI users (faster!)

- Auto menu video mode setting
- If a game requires audio, it will ask to be setup (bit of a problem on GC)
- Game listing re-coded
- Improved the .iso generation speed ALOT

*DVD9 authentication is dependent on GOOD media and the modchip, not GCOS at all.. It simply parses them once they can be read.
*Do not use Shrunk Audio streaming games (they may crash!)
*Memcards may have an issue.. i.e. save a game from a dvd9 disc and then it won't work on the game if played by itself.. (?)

Source for the PC .exe is included and soon enough I'll add the rest as I'm not home right now.
To compile it, you must compile the 0x80D00000 build of GCOS, throw it inside the 0x80003100 loader, then throw the .gcm file into the .exe source and compile that. As you can see it's a very annoying build process, hence why I was always reluctant to continue work on it after v3.

Enjoy!

Hi emu_kidid!

Do you happen to have a copy of the features planned for the new (last) GCOS listed in the now lost Development Thread? I have already tried several methods to get to that Devleopment Thread using Archive.org and Google Cache for example, but nothing worked. I could try to remember some of the things, but I really don't remember many of them since it's been a long time since I have logged in here last time. You're a pretty busy guy I must admit, hopefully you get things done without big hassle. Anyway, I am sure the new GCOS will be a big news for the scene, even if it is for the GameCube. Anyways, the best of luck to you emu_kidid!

Thanks!

Hi, there have been talks about some versions of GCOS not booting with the new Wii v. 3.3 firmware.. Any validity to this?
