GameCube build?

[coolaj86]

I've been searching for the GameCube build of this for a while and only just now stumbled upon the source here.

How does one get the GameCube build (not the Wii build)?

Update

Here's a nasty diff that builds for me: https://gist.github.com/coolaj86/2d87d975fdd27ce7fcbcffd29deda184

It's probably so nasty because there are probably a lot of junk build files in the original. I'll try to get all of my steps documented in the near future, and put into a PR. If I Slack off on that, please ping me.

Unfortunately, the original site where all my projects were hosted is down and the mantainer didn’t respond. You can install the toolchain and build it yourself. I did ages ago and forgot how to do that. Here is a tutorial though. Are you a retrogaming fan? Italiano?

Are you a retrogaming fan? Italiano?

Yes, and No. :)

I'm a big GameCube fan and I've been collecting and curating the different indie games and homebrew.

Here is a tutorial though.

I finally got around to trying to build this. I was able to get a Hello World going, and run it on the GameCube, so I know the toolchain is installed properly.

However, when I try to build wiicross I get an error.

git clone git@github.com:scognito/wiicross.git
pushd ./wiicross
make -f MakefileGc

levelSelect.c
In file included from /home/app/game-wiicross/include/levelSelect.h:1,
                 from /home/app/game-wiicross/source/levelSelect.c:1:
/home/app/game-wiicross/include/wiicross.h:10:10: fatal error: snd.h: No such file or directory
   10 | #include "snd.h"
      |          ^~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
make[1]: *** [/opt/devkitpro/devkitPPC/base_rules:18: levelSelect.o] Error 1
make: *** [MakefileGc:101: build] Error 2

I haven't done C code in ages, and it was never that fun to begin with, but since I don't see an exact match for libsnd.h I'm guessing that perhaps the library has been renamed?

/opt/devkitpro/libogc/lib/wii/libasnd.a
/opt/devkitpro/libogc/lib/wii/libaesnd.a
/opt/devkitpro/libogc/lib/cube/libasnd.a
/opt/devkitpro/libogc/lib/cube/libaesnd.a
/opt/devkitpro/libogc/include/asndlib.h
/opt/devkitpro/libogc/include/aesndlib.h

Do you have any immediate thoughts on what I might need to do?

• tried renaming instances of snd.h to asnd.h, but it says

Would you be willing to get on a call and step through with me?

Or if you give me an SSH public key I could let you into the linux box that is all set up for such development.

Other notes (to self)

Update

Making a few changes and hard-coding a few values (as noted above) I was able to get to a point of linker errors:

/opt/devkitpro/devkitPPC/bin/../lib/gcc/powerpc-eabi/10.2.0/../../../../powerpc-eabi/bin/ld: optionScreen.o:/home/app/game-wiicross/source/../include/wiicross.h:185: multiple definition of `song'; levelSelect.o:/home/app/game-wiicross/include/wiicross.h:185: first defined here

/opt/devkitpro/devkitPPC/bin/../lib/gcc/powerpc-eabi/10.2.0/../../../../powerpc-eabi/bin/ld: cannot find -lz

But I'm not clear where to go from there. I know that libz is installed in the devkit tools. I don't know if the Makefile needs to change in some way to understand that.

Another Update

Well, well, well. Looky what we have here!

I had to do a bunch of hacky things to get this to work (10 years of bitrot and all that). I'll try to clean it up and make a PR.

[coolaj86]

I'll make the PR, but here's a working binary just in case I get hit by a bus before then. :)

Thank you and thanks for the work!

[MethodOrMadness]

@coolaj86 i was wondering if you got around to making that PR, as ive been trying to build this for a bit and cant seem to get it working, and your patch seems to fail(atleast on my machine running linux)

[scognito]

Thank you guys! Merged :)
