time bias needs to be stored in sysconf, probably

can this not be set in the calendar in the Wii system menu?

are there any quick and repeatable ways to get this issue to appear?
unlocking things in ssbb repeatedly is pretty tiresome/time-consuming... ;p

Hmm... maybe when you create the savestate it logs something into the game, would have
to check, and the date should be offset like 9 years i believe.

@marcel.werner3: If you want to see this issue, starts any game which displays when
have been done the save. Or opens the Wii Menu (but it doesn't display the current year)
Workaround : Add 8 years, 4 days and 16 hours (or substract 8 hours) to your system's
time.
It worked for me.

OK, godisgovernment told me it don't work with some timezones. I published a new
patch. Same location.
Updated by oungawak over 14 years ago
Never mind, I missed something in my tests. It's strange, when I change the timezone,
sometime it works, sometime not. It's like it depends of a specific time. >_>
Updated by oungawak over 14 years ago
I can't figure out why the timezone isn't set correctly under some circumstances.
Even if the problem come most likely from the "GetLocalTimeSinceJan1970" function.
But I've got an idea. (Hey ! Come back !!) Why not just add a temporary setting in
the GUI so users can define themselves an negative or positive offset for the Wii
clock (in hours or even minutes) ? I think this workaround will be sufficient for all
users despite the fact this solution is a little ugly. Unfortunately, change the GUI
is a bit too complicated for me (I don't know how the GUI code works).
See ya !

Some Wii games are using the GC epoch. More details here:

If you try to set it in the GCN IPL, it won't change, it just goes back to the time it had, though it doesn't crash. If it is found out how to synchronize with the system time, it should probably only do that on boot, then let the IPL/Wii Menu change it if desired later on.

Simply getting PC system time and using that each time you start dolphin would do the trick.
