Hacking Homebrew Channel ISO for USB Loaders

[kLiNiKaL]

if i knew how to delete the cover i had just uploaded to WiiTDB and replace with this one i would replace it lol

i'll upload it as soon as i get that rectified, i've contacted the WiiTDB guys to get it sorted

 

[Benjay]

This is a really great and brilliant idea !!!!
thank you for that !!

i just uploaded the Full HQ Cover, Disc Cover, and standard front only cover to wiitdb using HOMCHA as the title ID

There is a problem with this , because your covers are not displayed on the site...
i think you missed the region part , and that's why they're not diplayed.
region must be specified when you create an entry.
So i assume you (we) will have to create an entry for every region (NTSC-U , NTSC-J , NTSC-K and PAL).
or covers won't be displayed.

I send the link to this post to Zorglub , so he decides what to do

PS : if you have the original .psd , or the full HQ cover of it (1024x680) , please send me by PM , so i can make a PAL one

Does The Homebrew Channel ISO works for discs instead of USBs? How about SD cards?

I don't have try it on a disc so i don't know.

Anyway i have reuploaded the link with corrections on convers.

it only allows me to upload it as a custom for some reason it wont allow me to select a region, possibly due to the title ID not being proper

hopefully this can be solved soon as, i have placed the full .png into the boxcovers folder and it works as a cover nicely in WiiFlow

if only we could select a custom .png for HBC background lol that blue is really messing up my damn colour scheme

yes , you can't select a region due to the title not being proper (4th letter must be E , P , J or K)

QUOTEhopefully this can be solved soon

it will , i've PMed Zorglub to give him the link to this thread , and the problem encountered.

 

[laurozza]

If you want we can rename the id of the iso with a proper one. Tell me what ID! ^^

 

[Benjay]

no , just wait a little to see what Zorglub will do.
I think it wiil be easier to modify the site , instead of creating 4 versions of your brilliant idea (one for us , pal , korean and japanese).

Btw , i've updated wiitdb with your updated covers (fullHQ , full , front and 3D).
(but bubbles on covers would have been welcome lol).

Ok, thank you!

EDIT: i know that the covers are not that beautiful XD

 

[kLiNiKaL]

thank for getting this sorted out Benjay dude

much appreciated man

 

[Benjay]

Well , you're welcome , but you know , i just do what i'm supposed to do on wiitdb^^
Could someone try to download the cover from wiiflow for example , to see if the loader can find it ?
i don't have access to the TV for the moment (grrrrr.....)

 

[kLiNiKaL]

unfortunatley the woman is watching the damn TV, i'm sure one of the users could try it out please????

would really like to know if this is working with WiiFlow especially

same problem here ^^

me too !!

 

[laurozza]

I have just tried to download the cover with wiiflow but nothing...

 

[Benjay]

that's what i thought.
look at this link :

http://wiitdb.com/wiitdb/artwork/coverfull//HOMCHA.png

ther'es a name folder missing between coverfull and the ID , and loaders can't handle that , the ones using wiitdb need the region folder name.
Can't access the wiitdb ftp for the moment , but adding these covers to every region folder would be the solution.
We need to be patient and wait for Zorglub , or add manually the cover.

 

[kLiNiKaL]

dammit lol i've manually added and tested it and its working so the files are all good

i think we should just wait for Zorglub to sort it or Benjay to get access to the FTP

As benjay said, the cover wasn't added because it was missing the region.
I added it and moved the covers (the E logo on the HQ full cover in this thread is pixelated)
I added a way for some users to force the region on the site, but I think it would be best if Custom IDs followed the same pattern as original IDs.
The first letter used by Customs is C so that all "customs" are grouped together.
For example Custom, Home Channel, region E, no publisher CHCE00
If the iso is already widespread, it could stay that way, but if you just started distributing it and it can still be changed it would be a better example for others to follow if it was like other custom IDs.

Ok, i'll rename the ISO ID to CHCE00 and reupload it soon.

EDIT: ok, new links in the first post with the iso CHCE00.

Would it be possible to get CHCE00 , CHCP00 , CHCJ00 and CHCK00 versions ?
so we can localize covers for this too

(i know it's a detail but .....^^)
sorry to disturb you lol
