The 2022-05-10 release and [https://github.com/GaryOderNichts/Shipwright/actions/ nightly builds] before build #28 require [https://github.com/GaryOderNichts/Shipwright/releases/tag/otrgui OTRGui_BE] to generate an <code>oot.otr</code> for Wii U.

Since the SoH menu bar is currently not available in the Wii U version (a GUI is planned to be added), to use additional SoH features, a <code>cvars.cfg</code> file with CVars parameters in them (as <code>g[featurename] = #</code>, for each line; toggled values being <code>0</code> = Disabled, <code>1</code> = Enabled) would need to be in the base SoH app folder. A list of CVars features can be found in <code>shipofharkinian.json</code> of the PC version after launching the PC version. Newer features can be used in the latest [https://github.com/GaryOderNichts/Shipwright/actions nightly builds] of Ship of Harkinian.<br/>Using the <code>gDpadEquips</code> CVars feature (to allow items to be equipped to the D-Pad) will cause the game to crash without the <code>dpad.bin</code> file in <code>oot.otr</code>. To apply that, copy <code>dpad.bin</code> (located in "/assets/game/ship_of_harkinian/buttons/" from the latest PC version) and add it to the Wii U version's OTRGui_BE folder's assets (of the same location) before building the Wii U version of <code>oot.otr</code> in OTRGui_BE.</ref>

Emulators via vWii

Most emulators available for the Wii will also work on vWii(virtual Wii) mode on the Wii U. However, due to sandboxing, there will be no performance gain over a Wii, though some emulators support the Wii U pro controller or Wii U Gamepad.

See Emulators on Wii for emulators that will work on vWii mode

  1. ↑ Cave Story Engine 2, or CSE2 for short, received a DMCA cease and desist notice from Nicalis, the current IP owner of Cave Story, despite the original Cave Story being a freeware developed by Daisuke "Pixel" Amaya.
  2. ↑ Ship of Harkinian requires either the GameCube's PAL Debug version (recommended) or the regular PAL GameCube version (not recommended) of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time to generate an oot.otr file to play it. The 2022-05-10 release and nightly builds before build #28 require OTRGui_BE to generate an oot.otr for Wii U. However, newer releases and builds after build #28 require the PC version of oot.otr built in the regular OTRGui to play.
