It's quite sad, but it doesn't mean this needs to end here, in fact there is hope as you will see.
The discussion could have continued on the old topic, but people need to be able to find the URL, and the topic needs to be updated.

Hope you can bring some updates to wiiflow it havent got any news in long time.

Hope for the best to the best loader.

Great to see wiiflow is continued, keep up the great work

So... After the next coder picks up the torch, what's it going to be? Continued and Continuing are taken up, so what next?

Maybe, but we are all agree that the most of us want that fat32/NTFS support.
What i want its watching my collection of games in 3D in HQ on my TV screen (yeah, lol.)

Glad this didnt died.
Much of us...want to see wiiflow not dying... so thank you for not letting this die, and keep the good work.

Good luck

What happened to the old thread?!?!?!?
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=185010
doesn't show anymore...

Thanks Hibern and Narolez for a great loader. It's still the best and I'll cary on using it, I can understand how demanding being the sole developer would be and hope that one day it will be a group development where people just make small contributions.

Norlez (or anyone who may know), could I ask a quick question?, which revision of devkitpro / libogc is required to compile the latest version?

I had a quick look at the code a week or so ago and had some compilation problems with the current svn version (a mem_open not declared), I noticed that there were comments about Hibern's memory management not being compatible with R18 or R19 and wondered if my toolchain/environment was not set up correctly.

I'm a total "wii homebrew" noob but wanted to have a little play at modifying some of the grx/animation for just some personal ideas I'd had.

Really sorry about Narolez... i Hope it's not too bad for him.

I hope to see a lot of people/coders will have the possibility to contribute on this loader (just like GX one...) , so that to count on a team => WiiFlow-Team please!

Next step : NTFS support for wiiflow

Lazydog, you can compile it using devkit R19 and the latest libogc. I use a svn version of libogc, actually, it's the same I use to compile WiiXplorer, USB Loader GX, and MPlayer-CE (I patched MPlayer-CE).

Who is the coder that will continu the wiiflow project after hibern and noralez ??

Pip'

Perhaps the person that started this thread?


I think it's Lustar-Mii?

Thanks r-win, I will try that

Whoever picks up development on Wiiflow, I do have a suggestion. As of about a month ago, uLoader and CFG Loader were the only loaders that would wake up my HD prior to starting up. Recently Loader GX implemented whatever code it was to follow suite, and now I noticed Wiifloader does too. If Wiiflow could do the same thing I would probably end up using it, but loading another loader to wake up the HD just to boot into Wiiflow is kind of impractical.
