Either is fine, but you did not do “4. Download and compile libext2fs-wii and libntfs-wii” “as documented in the official compile guide” because you have no ntfs.c and you are trying to compile the latest SVN when the instructions only cover up to SVN843 .

oh ok, i thought it was optional. i just download libext2fs-wii and libntfs-wii, where do i unzip it?
and i dont fully understand this:

# Non-members may check out a read-only working copy anonymously over HTTP.
svn checkout http://libext2fs-wii.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ libext2fs-wii-read-only

do i type all of this using msys? this is hard for me so im sorry if im slow and i do appreciate the help

And that’s the reason why..

This guide will no longer address these additional steps since users of WIIMC+ receive the necessary compiled library additions directly as part of the WIIMC+ distribution.

I dont understand. ur not helping dude ur instrunctions are all over the place and they dont make sense. in both guides they say compile fribidi, libexif, libiconv, and pcre and now u saying i shouldnt be doing this?
if these mixed-up complicated giudes supposed to be straight foward for normal users then ur out of ur nerdy mind. im not a fuckin programmer so just tell me what to do next. without being pig headed.

so u saying i just skip to step 7 without inputing the codes in step 4? btw i compiled libext2fs-wii and libntfs-wii

Against my better judgement, I responded to you continuing abuse, but no more. You apparently cannot read or cannot be bothered to. As it says the guide is correct up to SVN 762, but does not attempt to address the changes that the WIIMC developers require after that point. Others have documented the changes required after that point and I have referenced their posts which work up to SVN843. Game over.

Hi, I compiled and installed WiiMC+ following the provided instructtions. I have to admit that I am a total newbie but I managed to follow the process (most of the time without understanding of what I was doing), thanks for that.

I’ve been using WiiMC+ for watching DVDs through my Wii for a while and now, when I strat WiiMC+ I receive an update message.
Should I accept the update?
Thanks for your advice,

ssombra

No don’t accept the update or you will revert to the standard WIIMC at the next version level. You can turn off the update check and nag by setting the WIIMC+ setting Global/Check Update to No.

Glad to hear of your success and confirmation of the adequacy of the guide for newbies! Enjoy WIIMC+, there’s more to come with Version 7!

Thanks jhb50, the guide did help. Looking forward for the next version (with update instructions i hope).

Hi, I’m about to compile r903 and then apply and compile Plus v7 too.

Just a quick question, are there still problems with strings.h and this workaround is needed?

Thanks! 🙂

[cadbusca]

I believe it is still required and I thought it was part of the libogc update I distributed. Turns out it is part of devkitPPC within Devkitpro so I will send out a zip of that as well. Thanks for pointing that out. Zip attached here as well.

Hi

I’m having some difficulties with step 2.

I have clicked the link for the Development Kit Updater.

Running the installer it stops about a 1/3rd of the way.
With the following message.

Installation Aborted
The installation was not completed successfully.

pspsdk-doc-20051113.tar.bz2 could not be downloaded at this time.

I have provided a screenshot in the link below.

Could some one please direct me appropriately to rectify this.

Thank you.

Read step 2 again and follow the instructions. You don’t need Sony Playstation code for the Nintendo WII.

[cadbusca]

It looks like the merge of the patch was incorrect.
My guess is that you did not follow the instruction to use SVN971.

“Third, update your WIIMC source code using Right click on C:WIIMC and click “Turtoise SVNUpdate to Revision” and click “Revision” and enter 971. The patch may not work correctly with later SVN’s.”

Your file.cpp should match the one attached.

[rodries]

Nope, the problem is that he’s using the latest devkitPPC (r23, just released) and your patch is based on r22.
