mlurie Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 Is there a way to launch the Dolphin Wii System Menu from LaunchBox/BigBox? It would be great for managing Miis while Game Streaming to my Nvidia Shield TV. Quote
Retro808 Posted October 21, 2021 Posted October 21, 2021 In LB you can right click a game and in the menu choose the option to Launch Dolphin. In BB I do not believe there is such an option. At least I do not see one on the Game Details screen. Quote

mlurie Posted October 21, 2021 Author Posted October 21, 2021 The Wii System Menu is a menu option that is installed directly in Dolphin, not a ROM that is imported into LaunchBox. I'm trying to figure out a way to "import" the Wii System Menu and launch it from LaunchBox directly instead of having to open Dolphin and select it from the Tools menu. Quote

Found this with a very quick google. "You can do it on the command line. Use -n to select the system menu and -C to set DefaultISO to the disc you want." Quote

My eyes saw Dolphin Wii System menu but the brain only processed Dolphin. Looks like @neil9000 might have you covered. Quote
mlurie Posted October 22, 2021 Author Posted October 22, 2021 Okay, I've got it launching the Wii system menu with the following command line switches: -b -n 0000000100000002. However, I can't figure out the proper syntax to set the default ISO with the -C switch. It's not documented very well on the Dolphin Wiki. Quote
KingSlayer937 Posted October 22, 2021 Posted October 22, 2021 (edited) Dolphin.exe -n 0000000100000002 This command works for me, boots directly into the wii menu. Dolphin.exe -n 0001000248414341 This boots directly into MiiMaker. The -C switch is for the config file, i never had any luck with that. As far as i know there isnt a switch to mount a iso/etc in dolphin. You can "change disc" within the wii menu in Disc Channel, not sure if it actually boots the iso or not, ive never used it. I only use my menu for nostalgia, managing my saves, miis, that kinda stuff. Edited October 22, 2021 by KingSlayer937 1 Quote
mabdog Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 (edited) I really want to do this! But I'm not sure where to put Dolphin.exe -n 0000000100000002 I'm not particularly experienced with using commands in Launchbox.. where do they go? Edited September 26, 2024 by mabdog Quote
Lordmonkus Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 Put it in the Default Command-Line Parameters box where I have -b -e You will probably have to remove the -b -e Quote
