Interesting!
Two questions, then:

What is this project's roadmap?
What does this server provide that makes it a worthy alternative to Wiimmfi or WiiLink WFC?


RE: Dawnofthed Wi-Fi connection. - Dawnofthed Games - 05-16-2025

Well for one I managed to get support for games like super smash bros brawl, Mario kart Wii and Mario kart DS seems fine but has issues syncing players to each other. A roadmap of supporting or tested games here.

One main issue is I'm using radmin vpn for the server IP but when I use it under the DNS server.py it doesn't pick up even though I put it in the DNS advanced settings and performed a connection test. Is there a way for me to fix that so real consoles can connect to the server outside my network as well or what changes should be made? Btw it works fine in the local IP.

Edit:we also have access to moderation tools and use it to enforcement of our eula which is to prevent ftw cheating or teaming in smash bros brawl and other violations in our own terms if witnessed manually. Unfortunately there is no automatic anti cheat, but fair play is front and center in this server.

Why is the github just a readme? And what does this have to offer over existing services? The release zip looks like it's mostly just a copy of the original dwc server emulator


RE: Dawnofthed Wi-Fi connection. - Dawnofthed Games - 05-20-2025

It's new. Just like wiimmfi every server has to go through development from start to finish. Yes I may not offer anything big but that's the start. Give the server time to cook and I'll be sure to bring a relatively stable service. It might not be able to be in competition with wiimmfi but if it works who's to complain? Sure there's no cloud hosting like wiimmfi but one thing I would like to know is would tailscale hosted vps work? I'd appreciate the feedback.

Edit:But to give credit where credit is due, yes it is a dwc server.
But that's doesn't mean that it won't improve as it goes on.

Why not just use the WiiLink source as a base then? Its more complete then DWC and has less bugs in general.


RE: Dawnofthed Wi-Fi connection. - Dawnofthed Games - 05-21-2025

That's true. I could, but my main issue is I'm been trying to figure out how to use it but had issues with postgre and the setup, for self hosting it. If you can detail it as to how I can integrate it with my own server I'd gladly appreciate it.
