Marcan, de la Team Twizzers, viens de nous livrer aujourd'hui via le site HackMii une nouvelle version de l'Homebrew Channel. Cette publication casse le cycle habituel des mises à jour système de Nintendo bouchant les précédents exploits et aboutissant à la release peu de temps après d'un nouvel exploit et du HBC intégrant les derniers correctifs. La team, las d'attendre Nintendo et trouvant les bug fixs assez importants, a donc mis en ligne cette nouvelle révision.
Les principales nouveautés sont le support des nouvelles manettes (les homebrews devront être recompilés avec les dernière libs), le support complet de UT8/Unicode, la possibilité de faire des screenshots dans HBC et de nombreux correctifs.
Changelog complet :
