Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Adventure Squad (WiiWare) WiiConnect24 Events

[livid badger]

hey everyone, getting RiiConnect24 set up with Dolphin and it's working for all the basic channels like News, Forecast, etc. but I'm trying to play a specific game which utilizes WiiConnect24 within the gameplay and I'm not sure how (or if) I can set that up to work with RiiConnect24? this basically sums up the game specifics: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/wii/969686-pokemon-fushigi-no-dungeon-mezase-hikari-no-boukendan/faqs/79951/wi-fi-legendaries#:~:text=As for WiiConnect%2C the service,Wii%3A https%3A//wii.guide/riiconnect24

should this "just work" after I get RiiConnect24 set up, or is there more to it?

I set my Dolphin region to Japan, used the RiiConnect24 patcher to patch it, also using Japan, then set a custom RTC in Dolphin to be August 8th 2009 (which should be the period of the WiiConnect24 event, according to https://www.serebii.net/dungeon3/wifi.shtml). then I opened the Wii menu through Dolphin and I should have gotten a WiiMail regarding the event, but I didn't get one. does anyone know what I missed?

did u import the nand from a real console?

[livid badger]

No, I did a system update through dolphin following this guide https://wii.guide/riiconnect24-dolphin.html is that not the way to do it?

[frank raven]

yes but to play online you need a real wii nand

[livid badger]

I'm not trying to play online though, it's just supposed to send a WiiConnect24 event in a certain time window

I think it depends on Daylight Savings Time...

According to this and my experiments, you don't have to set the date to when the events originally occurred.
