Homebrew - Gecko OS 1.06f with Ocarina & Gamecube Mode - Image 1


A major update for the Wii's GeckoOS! The homebrew is now combined with Ocarina, the stand-alone Wii(RD) code handler. Essentially, it acts as a GameShark for the Wii, letting you search for cheat codes stored in your SD card.

In case you're not familiar with GeckoOS, it's a program that lets you load Wii games from other regions. According to Nuke, author of GeckoOS, this is not a major release, but a lot of bugs have been fixed, and with its combination with Ocarina, you may still want to grab it though. Here's what's new and what's been fixed:

Things fixed.
  • Gamecube Games / Imports now supported (thanks bushing!)
  • Date and Time issue fixed in games like Wii Sports, Brawl.
  • Glitching games fixed, i.e Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles, Metroid Prime 3 etc.
  • Sound fixed in Twilight Princess when using Gecko OS, WiiRD
  • SD Card bug fixed. Now you can still access the SD Card when using ocarina.
  • Disabled Wiimote when going in GC mode to avoid battery drainage.
Added.
  • Ocarina (thanks Link)
  • Some Extra hook types.
  • Turn Off and On Ocarina.
  • Some backend features have been added.
Things to note:
  • Ocarina just works as before, the codes need to be placed in the folder 'codes' on the SD card.
  • Ocarina can be turned off in the config menu.
