Can ScummVM be run in debug mode on Wii?

Is this possible? Because some HBC apps have the argc/argv (arguments) line in them

47iscool: Please see http://sourceforge.net/p/scummvm/bugs/6262/

Testing and debugging using Wiiload, debug command line and gdb for remote debugging is on my TODO list... but feel free to try this yourself.

I have no idea how to use wiiload but thanks anyway. It also means you need a way to connect the PC to the Wii but I don't have anything to do that with. I only use SD and USB.

I am not aware how to send HBC apps a command line, though I haven't looked at this in detail.

http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wiiload gives a tutorial on using the Wiiload tool with the HBC and several implementations. The Wii requires a working network connection i.e. either WiFi or USB Wired Ethernet adaptor (which are 6-10 GBP from EBay etc.)

Ah, I see. You can pass command lines parameters by adding/modifying <arguments> / <arg> sections of the associated meta.xml e.g.
https://code.google.com/p/abuse-wii/sou ... i/meta.xml

I knew I forgot to mention something. It was the xml file, thanks.
