Is there an alternative way to download this? Every time I try to download it through the Homebrew Browser it fails, stating that it failed to create the folders. --[[User:Squirminator2k|Squirminator2k]] 00:47, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

I'm experiencing problems downloading with Homebrew Browser too. Only way I achieved to install it is by downloading it with my laptop and manually copiyng it on the SD.
I'll put here also some ideas for improvements and some little quirks I've found playing some games:
Bugs:
- Sound is buggy sometimes, expecially when diskloading or when lots of action occurs on screen
- Leander is unplayable as there is no collision detection between player's sword and enemy sprites/ground objects
- Sometimes the mouse emulation is jerky
Improvements:
- Cannot map neither Numpad nor cursor keys. They are very useful with flight sims
- You should allow to map keys not only to + - 1 and C but also to analog stick positions. This would allow playing Dungeon Master, Walker and AlienBreed3D with Nunchuck for example.
- You should allow mapping the mouse button in reverse as they are now (Left button B and right button A) in order to have shootie games (Capone, Op Wolf, Walker) play better with Wiimote
- GC Pad compatibility is wellcome (hint! hint!)
- USB storage compatibility would be nice also.

Join in! I don't intend to finish this by myself --SimonKagstrom 17:03, 6 May 2009 (UTC)


This really is great news. I've put an S.O.S on the PSPuae forums to see if any of the devs involved with that port would like to chip in on a wii version. It would be great if people like eke-eke or tantric could get involved too? ...either way - going by your dedication and commitment with wii frodo I'm sure you'll get things running nicely! Good luck! --Baboon —Preceding undated comment added 07:59, 12 May 2009.

Tantric is already indirectly involved since he's doing a fair share of the SDL work, but sure, any help would be very good! The main issue will be with the menu system. I'd like to feed this back to upstream UAE, and apart from the current menu (from Frodo) most of it is quite general and acceptable. But the menu implementation is very wii-specific and ugly and wouldn't be accepted by upstream. --SimonKagstrom 09:29, 12 May 2009 (UTC)


Nice first release! The classic controller works pretty well for the games I've tried. Stunt car Racer runs at a playable speed but Rodland is a bit choppy (tried changing the emulator options but it didn't seem to do anything). Do you think you'll be able to add keybindings (or even usb) like you did to frodo within the GUI as this would make a lot more games playable (North & South requires the right shift key to select your cavalry etc)? --Baboon —Preceding undated comment added 21:28, 14 May 2009.

You can already do that - but from the configuration file and not the menu. The configuration file will always be more flexible than the GUI, so I'm not sure if it's even worth implementing. There are configuration file options which affect the speed, and the configuration file will be improved for the next release. --SimonKagstrom 05:38, 15 May 2009 (UTC)


I've just tried Fol's config file for this emulator and it seems to have sorted out the choppiness for most games now (Rodland and stuntcar racer seem to be full speed). For anyone interested you can get that file here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=L1HXYN68 --Baboon —Preceding undated comment added 11:40, 15 May 2009.
