Bypass DVD drive Check for USB loaded games #53

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Wii can boot and use homebrew without a DVD drive connected.  However loading a 
.wbfs via a usbloader requires at least a functional DVD drive main board.  
Presumably the game asks the IOS to init the drive or some such.

Is there a possibility that a version of d2x could figure out what's going on 
and just tell the game that the drive exists or inited successfully or whatever?

I have a Wii with a broken optical drive and I expect that in the future the 
optical drive will be the first part to go on many wiis.

Sorry, this is out of d2x scope.

I expected it might be.  

It might be possible to whip something up in GeckoOS/Ocarina but I thought a 
d2x mod would be the best way if it is an IOS function.  Thanks!
