"Parental lock" on Swiss?
Posted: Thu Oct 26, 2023 6:08 pm
Howdy, been looking for some information and thus far haven't found anything that helps, so here I am.
Long story short, someone stole our entire (relatively small) library of Gamecube games from our arcade setup, so I'm trying to set up a Gamecube running Swiss as a replacement, and I need to be able to lock down the Swiss settings somehow so that some dickhead can't mess with everything. So, my question was whether there's any way to either add something like a parental lock passcode or just hide the menu bar entirely so the only thing anyone can do is launch the loaded games?
I've currently got the system running using Picoboot and SD2SP2, because the Gamecube in question no longer reads discs despite a laser swap and cap kit. I've got it set up with all the games on the root of the SD card, carousel view, and all other items/folders hidden, but the menu bar is still accessible and I can't find a way to hide that or lock it down. The console's going to be secured, so physical tampering isn't a concern. If it's not possible with this setup, does anyone know another setup that would allow such a thing? Alternatively, if it'd be possible to request the addition of some sort of password system to Swiss that would be awesome. At the end of the day though I just need to be able to prevent random people from messing with the settings, or otherwise only allow them to launch the loaded game .isos.
Appreciate any info anyone's got!
