In game reset igr.dol does not work

Open romain622 opened this issue 4 years ago • 17 comments

Hello,

With Tony hawk pro skater 3 during a session mode or in Mario sunshine (ingame) and many others games when i use mapping Buttons to come back to the menu I have a black screen and must reboot the console. It's very strange.

Because for example on Mario kart the igr fonction works.

My configuration SD2SP2 Pal GameCube (no modification i use softmode) Pal games Video Rgb connection HD TV SD ultra sandisk ultra

Thank's for your return. it's very usefull software.

Revision 856 of swiss

romain622 avatar Jul 12 '20 20:07 romain622

Current workaround is to use something else as igr.dol, such as the main DOL of Game Boy Interface's Memory Card Boot Disc.

Thank's for your reply. I understand what you tell the igr.dol can be any .dol such a game or game boy interface. I'm going to test with an other . dol and if i Can boot on this dol the problem is maybe located on the swiss boot. But the function to reboot on igr corresponding to swiss is more usefull and will allow to avoid to reboot the console and make the exploit when we change another game.

That DOL is itself a DOL loader, that can load Swiss.

ok i understood. How can I boot on swiss with gbi interface. I placed gbi.dol and the boot.dol (corresponding to swiss) in same directory. Because when I hold start on gbi interface the console reboot.

I said Game Boy Interface's Memory Card Boot Disc, not Game Boy Interface. But that can also work, it just expect autoexec.dol instead.

I put boot.dol and autoexec.dol corresponding to swiss into same directory of gbi. I don't have xeno and use exploit game (dol.gci and save games) Game Boy Interface's Memory Card Boot Disc.. it's a .dol or ISO burned to disk ?

Thank's.

But it does not work and I have black screen yet with Mario sunshine when i'm trying to load igr during the game.

romain622 avatar Jul 17 '20 19:07 romain622

Tested with Mario sunshine during the game After having start my save and make some movement with mario. I think it depends game because when i use Mario kart i can go back to swiss during any moments

Reproduced on smash Bross in the menu after start press screen. Black screen after use shortcut to load igr.dol (corresponding to swiss)

I was able to do IGR ok from the menu in SSMB. I am using the dol extracted from the GBI Memory Card Boot Disc as my igr.dol on SD2SP2 which executes boot.dol (Swiss)

Has anyone managed to resolve this black screen issue?

ZweiBR avatar Apr 04 '21 03:04 ZweiBR

I’ve had some moderate succes with this issue. But as known with IGR, its still not a 100%.

The issue I believe has to do with the fact that PAL operates at 576p/i and SWISS uses that same resolution as defined from the settings. When playing a game forced to 480p and then resetting to SWISS will make the Gamecube display again at 576. I think this causes the black screen issue (some sort of resolution conflict).

As a workaround I’ve set SWISS to display at 480p in the settings. Now whenever I reset to SWISS it works (more often).

Swiss v0.6r1236

At first igr.dol is working more often in this current version

ZweiBR avatar Nov 21 '21 22:11 ZweiBR

I put boot.dol and autoexec.dol corresponding to swiss into same directory of gbi. I don't have xeno and use exploit game (dol.gci and save games) Game Boy Interface's Memory Card Boot Disc.. it's a .dol or ISO burned to disk ?

@romain622 here you go https://anonfiles.com/b4j47bG9o6/igr_dol

I'm using this file as igr.dol, but it loads first Swiss r888 that I have on disc, and then the latest version from SD2SP2. Is there any way to avoid this double load?

Has there been any progress on this issue by any chance? I still am not able to get anything but a black screen on igr.dol setup using sdgecko and memory card save exploit. Thanks! Keep up the amazing work Extrems!
