Code crashes SSBB on Wii U

Hi thanks for making this tool!

I tried compiling your code, but ran into a number of re-declaration errors. I removed the declarations that already existed in my version of libogc, and was successfully able to compile.

However, upon trying to launch this code with gecko on a NTSC-U Brawl disc and Wii U with Gecko I just get a black screen.

This is the text file I get that accompanies the gct file:
wii-gc-adapter-gct.txt

Is this what you expect it to look like? If not, could you please post what it should look like?

Hello!

That's odd... Can you provide the output of make in the un-edited repo?
What revision of libogc are you using?

I'm a little confused as to how you got that file. The part of the Makefile that would generate it has been commented out for quite some time... Also, there's shouldn't be a .gct; there should be a .gpf.

Regardless, the .txt seems to follow the structure I'd expect. The addresses in it look a little fishy, though.

Anyway, about your build environment...

  • What OS are you on?
  • DID you get a .gpf from the build?
  • What files show up in the build folder?

If build/wii-gc-adapter-inject.elf is larger than around 20kB, then I suspect it's somehow linking against libogc by mistake.

EDIT: Here's the patch folder I get on my computer, if you'd like to test that.

Thanks for sending me your patch and getting back to me. It works great!

Here's the output when I try a make:
makelog1.txt

and here's the output of make after your most recent change:
makelog2.txt

I got that .txt file because I didn't read closely enough that this is a .gpf patch and not a .gct patch, so I just ran createGCT in buildtools... so pay that no mind.

Here's the .gpf that's generated in your old build, I can't get it to create a .gpf in your latest build.
patch.zip

Here's what shows up in the build folder when I make your old build:

I'm on Ubuntu 16.04, with DevkitPPC r27 and libogc 1.8.15-1. What versions of DevkitPPC and libogc do you have? I'll try and match whatever you have.

build/wii-gc-adapter-inject.elf is 21.8kb for me.

Glad to hear it's working! (Seriously, you're like the first person besides me to use this)

There's your problem: Your clone of the repository, in the failing build, is in a folder named wii-gc-adapter-inject-master, rather than wii-gc-adapter-inject. This isn't supposed to be required, but renaming it should solve your problem. (This kinda would warrant a bugfix, but it probably doesn't matter that much...) If I'm wrong, don't hesitate to re-open this issue. ;)

Btw, Ubuntu 16.04, DevkitPPC r27, libogc 1.8.15-1. My setup is identical.
