Ok. I realise it works on actual Wii with the Data folder place correctly. This is just a Dolphin question after all.
The easiest workaround I found to load Wired3d applications/games on Dolphin is to use the homebrew channel and the virtual SD card.
I followed this guide : https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=Virtual_SD_Card_Guide
For reference, I used :
The file structure is using the typical homebrew apps path. (/apps/[YOUR_GAME]/)
The meta.xml
is needed to have an entry in the Homebrew Channel.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1" standalone="yes"?>
<app version="1">
<name>Wire3dDemo</name>
<coder>rrath</coder>
<version>1.0</version>
<release_date>20140216000000</release_date>
<short_description>Wire3d Demo</short_description>
<long_description></long_description>
<ahb_access/>
</app>
I am closing the issue because I found a way to run Wire3d applications.. But if you have alternative solution feel free to comment.
Dolphin release last month a change that allow to sync the SD card to a folder directly.
Once enable the sync. You can update your application directly : C:\Users\USER\Documents\Dolphin Emulator\Load\WiiSDSync
(Default path)
September release include this commit : https://dolphin-emu.org/download/dev/master/5.0-16891/
This is a follow up to an interrogation I had in this other issue... https://github.com/rrath/Wire3D/issues/3#issuecomment-1107798185
Compilation of both Demo and Game succeed but contrary to the other sample. They don't run in Dolphin or actual Wii.
Abrupt exit
This is the log in Dolphin:
Paths
It was mentionned that if the resources can not be loaded it will exit. These seems like a very probable code path. So, I verified that the different resources fonts and textures were using the correct path.

Here is the directory structure where i can see that all resources are presented in
Data/
If you have any ideas, let me know. And btw I am new to both devkitpro, Dolphin and PowerPC... It is likely something very basic.
