inject_gba


Description:

GBA injection for Wii-U virtual console games.


Warning:

This is still a massive work-in-progress.


Requirements:

Python 3

No, it won't work with Python 2. Python 3 was released in 2008, it is time to move on.

Various python modules.

Initial attempt at packaging, I may have missed some dependencies. If you get a missing import, install it.

The GUI requires python's tkinter, you will need to install this yourself.


Installation:

FreeBSD 10

Install Python 3.4:

sudo pkg install python34 py34-tkinter

Install inject_gba:

sudo python3 setup.py install

Linux - Centos 6

The easiest way to install Python 3 is from the ius repo at http://ius.io

sudo yum install https://centos6.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm
sudo yum install python35u python35u-setuptools python35u-tkinter

If you have a bare-bones installation you will need some X11 fonts:

sudo yum install xorg-x11-fonts\*

If you are connecting via SSH (eg to a VM) you will need xauth:

sudo yum install xorg-x11-xauth

Install inject_gba using:

sudo python3.5 setup.py install

Windows (I tested Python 3.5.1 on Windows 8.1)

Install the 32-bit python, even on 64-bit windows. https://www.python.org/downloads/windows/

If you get error 0x80240017, make sure you have installed all updates. If you still get the same error you may need to update the Universal C Runtime: https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/kb/2999226

Select "Install for all users" and "Add python to PATH"

Open a CMD prompt as administrator and run

python setup.py install

This will install "inject_gba.exe"

It works just by typing "inject_gba".

You can run this from anywhere.

You do not need to specify a path.

You do not need to type "python inject_gba.py".

You do not need to be in the source directory.

You do not need to keep the source directory.
