No, there is non need. Just copy apps folder to sd or usb.

And piibooter.dol and neekbooter.dol? Are they installed on the root of sd/usb?

Once installed into priiloader in either real (priibooter.dol) or emulated (neekbooter.dol) NAND they are not needed at all. It is easier to install them from the root of the SD card so I'd put them there initially.

postLoader 3.50.1

* Corrected some issue with GRRLIB video initializiation
* Added priibooterGUI 0.2
* postLoader when executed from priibooter(GUI) do not show more the device
initialization screen (it assumes that they are already init)

priibooterGUI notes:

* can load it's own background png from ://ploader/priibooter.png (from sd is highly suggested)
* backround if faded-in for about 5 second during usb init. If usb is already
initialized fade-in will take 3 second. During this time you can interrupt and
show boot menu pressing any key
* the boot menu allow to select postLoader/neek/sm/hbc. The selection can be
saved or just used one time
* uses the same postloader's themes for menu.

I don't mean to hijack your thread, but I need some opinions from postLoader users. Thanks to stfour, the next version of Settings Editor GUI will have theme support. Here is my question:

Should we have it use postLoader's current theme, or a separate one?

Soon postloader will be capable of switching themes on-the-fly. So my suggestion is to keep the same theme.

In any way, you could support both. If a theme exist in your private folder, load it (just check if theme.cfg exist), otherwise load standard postloader theme.

I made some somewhat generic theme/backgrounds for postLoader.
All are black based with a different secondary color (grey, blue, green, red, yellow).
Props goes to Lester=) I borrowed and tweaked the button, frame, and window .pngs from his bluewii theme.
My archaic TV's vision is a lil fuzzy, but they looked decent enough to me =P

Done. It looks for "SE_theme", then "theme" if it doesn't exist. Thanks for the suggestion. :)

Just wanted to report a possible bug when using postLoader with neek2o: while using PL under neek2o, if you launch WFC multiplayer games, you can't connect and just get an error 50330, which apparently means the Wii has bad internet settings. However, that's not the case, because when I launch the games through Joyflow or the neek2o Disk Channel, I don't get the error with any game. Also, I don't get the 50330 error when I launch games on the real NAND. Just a heads up..

Games I tried:
Mario Kart Wii NTSC-U
Monster Hunter Tri NTSC-U

I can verify his claims; as some of you may know I had this issue already and thought it was my internet setting so I switched to ModMii created nand and got everything working so yeah now that I can access the SM it's definitely only giving this error with PL3.

I tried with Fortune Street.

Is there any possible way I could get a build of priibooter that has a 16 second countdown for the usb hdd init?

Alternatively, could you tell me where I could find that variable in the source so I could customize it myself as needed?


If there's anywhere you can point me that would help me with compiling this, I'd also appreciate that. I know there's a makefile in the source download, I'm just not sure of how exactly to proceed with that makefile. I have a copy of VIsual Studio 2010 installed on my PC, so if that helps . . . .


TIA!!
