Fork of wiisx, a GameCube/Wii/Wii U PSX emulator.

The starting point for this code base will be daxtsu's libwupc mod of wiisx, which is in turn based off of Matguitarist's "USB mod5"

Please see the following link for details:

http://www.gc-forever.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=2524

WiiSX is GNU GPL and the source can be found here:

https://code.google.com/p/pcsxgc/downloads/list

LibWupc is also GPL, which can be found here:

https://github.com/FIX94/libwupc

Please contact me if you have licensing concerns. I will try to make this as GPL2+/3+ compliant as possible.

##Downloads

I'll try to keep the latest working build in the Gamecube folder. Please note this is a big work in progress and is not guarenteed to work.

Here's the link, just replace your current boot.dol file in the apps/wiisx folder (i'll get a better download going later on):

https://github.com/Mystro256/wiisxr/raw/master/Gamecube/WiiSX.dol **Create this folder on wiisx: "x:/wiisx/memcards" and "x:/wiisx/sstates"

##Reporting Bugs

Feel free to report bugs, but if you can, please test pcsxr first, to elimate redundant bugs. If it's not a bug in pcsxr, but a bug here, report it here if desired. I would hope this can be as alligned with pcsxr as possible, so any bugs in pcsxr will be inherited unfortunately. If it is a bug in pcsxr, feel free to report bugs with pcsxr... Please note that I am not affiliated with them, so meantioning me or wiisxr is unnecessary and unadvised to avoid confusion.

As well, I can't guarentee this project will be a success, unless I can get some help! So if you have any programming skill, feel free to fork me and check the Goals section!

##Goals

The aim of this project is to maintain, update and improve the wiisx code to comply with building with the latest devkitPro (PPC), website can be found here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/devkitpro/files/devkitPPC/

Some Goals in mind:

• Fix build warnings and errors (see Gamecube/build.log for details, seems like it could be optimized better too)
• Remove Gamecube specific code and remake gui with libwiigui (easier to change, update and fix. Plus it's all draw with gx. Also this needs to be rebranded, as the wiisx logo and name does not belong to me)
• Update with code from pcsxr (Take as much as possible from pcsxr development... unfortunately the wii is limited and some fixes cannot be ported: http://pcsxr.codeplex.com)
• Improve plugins (perhaps replace them?)... e.g. cdrmooby28 has some optimization and possible heap issues. As well, maybe an opengl plugin can be ported to gx (with the help of something like gl2gx).

Don't forget to fork me if you want to contribute! :) I'm open to collaborators!

##How to Build

If don't have the build system setup yet, see "Build System Guide" first

Just cd into the Gamecube folder and run

make

I used a symbolic link directed at Makefile_Wii, as there are two makefiles: Makefile_GC and Makefile_Wii. Just running make should build the wii version, but use the following if this doesn't work

make -f Makefile_Wii

or to build it for gamecube:

make -f Makefile_GC

##Build System Guide

I realize many people know how to build on devkitPro, but here's a guide for noobies:

1. Download devkitPro (PPC version for your system) from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/devkitpro/files/devkitPPC/

2. Download zlib from here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/devkitpro/files/portlibs/ppc/

3. Download libfat-ogc: http://sourceforge.net/projects/devkitpro/files/libfat/

4. Download libogc: http://sourceforge.net/projects/devkitpro/files/libogc/

5. Download libwupc: https://github.com/FIX94/libwupc

6. Extract Devkitpro into a folder called devkitPro or whatever (your file system should look like this: devkitPro/devkitPPC/)

7. Make a portlibs folder then a ppc in the portlibs folder, like so: devkitPro/portlibs/ppc

8. Extract the include, lib and share (zlib only) from zlib and libwupc into the ppc folder.

9. Make a folder called libogc in the devkitPro folder like so: devkitPro/libogc

10. Extract the include and lib from libogc and libfat-ogc into the libogc folder.

11. Make sure you specify the environment variables. On Linux or mac, you can do it like so (I used ~/devkitPro for the location):

export DEVKITPRO=$HOME/devkitPro
export DEVKITPPC=$DEVKITPRO/devkitPPC
export PATH=$PATH:$DEVKITPPC/bin

and if you want to add the manpage path too:

export MANPATH=$MANPATH:$DEVKITPPC/share/man

Feel free to add this to your ~/.bashrc, but know the consequences of doing this.
