Wii U plugin to enhance the vWii mode

Enhanced vWii (evWii)

This is a plugin for Aroma which tries to improve some of the Wii U's virtual Wii features.
It works by patching features used for setting up the vWii mode while still in Wii U mode. This also includes DMCU patches.
Note that the plugin will not be active when booting vWii mode using the Boot Selector.

Features

• Allows enabling the 4 second power button press to force power off while in vWii mode.
• Allows setting custom viewport values in the DMCU firmware. This can undo the forced cropping of overscan in vWii mode.

Examples

GamePad (viewport unchanged):

GamePad (viewport adjusted):

Note: These are not actual GamePad captures, but visualizations of what viewport adjustments do.

Bulding

For building you need:

• wups
• wut
• libmocha

You can also build evwii using docker:

# Build docker image (only needed once)
docker build . -t evwii_builder

# make 
docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/project evwii_builder make

# make clean
docker run -it --rm -v ${PWD}:/project evwii_builder make clean

Special Thanks

• @vaguerant and @Ingunar for all of the vWii testing they have done for this!
