QUICK USAGE:
- ISOs can be .bin/.cue (Make sure .cue contains relative directory!), .img, or .iso format
- To install: Extract the contents of wiiSX-.zip to the root of your SD card
- SD Card detection order is as follows:
GameCube: GCLoader, SD2SP2, Slot A, Slot B.
Wii: Front SD, Slot A, Slot B.
- For SD/USB: Put ISOs (.bin/.cue or other formats) in the directory named /wiisx/isos,
All save types will automatically be placed in /wiisx/saves
- For DVD: ISOs may be anywhere on the disc, in ISO9660 format.
GameCube: Currently broken due to libOGC issues with backups, XenoGC might still work.
Wii: Requires a disc drive capable of reading DVD-R.
- For actual BIOS: Put SCPH1001.BIN in the directory on SD/USB named /wiisx/bios
- Load the executable from the HBC or in the loader of your choice
Once loaded, select 'Load ISO' and choose the source and select the ISO to load
(Note: to go up a directory select '..', B will exit the file browser)
- Select 'Play Game' to play
The game can be exited any time by pressing a configurable key combination together
on a GC pad (START & X), Classic Controller (HOME), Wiimote (- & +),
Wiimote+Nunchuck (1 & 2), or the reset button
(Note: this must be done to save your game; it will not be done automatically)
Controls:
- Controls are fully configurable so any button on your controller can be mapped
- The controller configuration screen presents each PSX button and allows you to toggle through sources
- There are 4 configuration slots for each type of controller
- To load a different, previously saved configuration, select the slot, and click 'Load'
- After configuring the controls as desired, select the slot, and click 'Save'
- After saving different configurations to the slots, be sure to save your configs in the input tab of the settings frame
- Clicking 'Next Pad' will cycle through the PSX controllers assigned
- There is an option to invert the Y axis of the PSX's analog sticks; by default this is 'Normal Y'
