Ability to create emulated SD card with desired size

CacoFFF · (This post was last modified: 04-21-2010, 03:31 AM by CacoFFF.)

Dolphin currently creates a 128mb "sd.raw" file in \User\Wii for the emulated SD card.

Since WinImage needs a licence and Gizmo can only mount them, I made a patch that allows user to select 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048 or 4096mb when creating the file.

Cool.
Maybe it's just my preference, but I would do something like..

Code:

filesize = 64 << filesizec;

..with checks if filesizec >= 1 and <=5 , instead of that switch statement.

I'm rusty with coding but if it works it goes.
I just can't seem to make it save, maybe I got lucky with the watchdog...

Why would anyone need to change the card sizes? Why not just make it the biggest SD card size and leave it at that.

Because who wants a 4GB file on their hard drive when they only want to use maybe a few MB on the SD card.

I have (and many other do too) about 15 Wii games and they are all over 4.0GB. I don't think one more file over 4.0GB really matters in todays world of huge hard drives.

Okay, though, I'm open to your point of view as well.

Woah, you did a patch based on my 'issue' request thingy (which has been deleted because of whatever reason Undecided

), kind of ^^
Very cool!
Only downside for me is: I can't even use the SD card because I have no NAND-dump Sad
