ACCF-Patch v2.1
What's new in v2.1
- Fixed: the patcher launches again. The v2.0 apps stopped at start-up because part of the new code wasn't bundled into them.
- Fixed: the GameCube pad's left stick did nothing. The game reads the left stick from the second status entry, and the pad only supplied one per frame. It now supplies two, like a Wii Remote.
- Renamed the app to ACCF-Patcher (it patches more than SDHC now), and the Gecko/Riivolution zips to
ACCF-Patch-*. - City Folk Deluxe discs fit the GameCube patch in the little low memory they have left.
Patcher options
SDHC card support (on by default) · GameCube controller in port 1 · Forecast Channel weather (needs the local weather_patches.json, see tools/weather).
Korean discs already support SDHC; for them only the controller and weather options apply.
Not tried on a console yet: the left-stick fix. Controller and weather were checked in Dolphin.
Requirements
- Your own
.wbfs/.isoof Animal Crossing: City Folk (no game files are included). - IOS: with a USB loader, set IOS to 249 and Block IOS Reload to On. The disc's stock IOS 38 cannot initialize SDHC cards. (Korean discs use IOS 48 but already support SDHC.)
- SDHC: an SD card formatted FAT32.
- GameCube controller: a pad in port 1. A GameCube pad has no HOME button, so the HOME Menu still needs a Wii Remote.
- Weather: the Forecast Channel installed on the Wii, with its WiiConnect24 forecast data already downloaded (open the Forecast Channel once while online). Without it the game keeps its normal weather.
- Weather can be disabled by holding B while booting, before the title screen.
- The patcher apps bundle everything they need and are unsigned (macOS: right-click, Open).
