SpaceShooter-Wii-Source-0_3.zip To recompile there is a batch file that must be run in the data directory to convert the .bmp to .h files.

  • Notable items
  1. See BibLib/BibSound2.cpp and BibLib/BibMp3.cpp for a simple background mp3 + sound effects mixer
  2. See BibLib/BibWiiInputDevice.cpp for a nice wrapper on the Wii Remote, Nunchuk, GC Controller functions
  3. See BibLib/BibFrameRate.cpp for a way to get the timing required for sprite animation and Frames-Per-Second calculations.

Version Notes

  • Current version is 0.3
  • Now compatible with HBC Beta 9, HBC 1.0 and beyond. The binary included is a .dol not a .elf.

Changes for Version 0.3 release:

  • Sped up viewport scrolling (no lagging in the viewport, but now it's jittery)
  • Change the way weapon systems work (cumulative, not individual)
  • Initialize random seed for different powerups each time.
  • Restructure internal code to detect and interface with controllers.
  • Added code to allow multiple control options (Pad, Tilt Pad, Nunchuk, Gamecube).
    • Menu is always accessible via Wii Remote Home button.
  • Big Bombs now shoot backwards.
  • Added two levels and made "The Horde" level a bit easier.
  • Improved BibSound code substantially, it's now double buffered
    • Fixed bug where some sounds were accidently repeated
  • Added mp3 background playing to BibSound code.
