Homebrew Wii Browser

[MassiveRican]

drakorex now that multiple d/load links in one shortcut are supported I say why not include both the SM and Theme together. It would require the users own source_menu.ini so no harm done anyway if the person doesn't set it up. If u get requests from users to separate it then maybe consider it after the release I dunno. Just throwing ideas out there.

Sorry for the god awful delays on this one guys. Once school started, I didn't have much time for hobbies like this, so it was put on hold for a while.
Anyway, here it is.

Wii Browser Forwarder [WIIB] Download

Tested personally and works perfectly from Wii Menu. Used AcidFlare's DOL and used the SaveGameManagerGX banner as a base (which itself is based on Deca Sports/Sports Island)
Music is some cool thing I found on youtube.

As for the new Icon.png based on the banner, here ya go, it's not all that great, but it does the job.

Edit: I know America isn't the only continent, I tried a few other images for the icon, but that one just looked the best. To compensate, I put Africa and Europe in the Icon.png. Just because. xD

gave92 feel free to rehost that on your page for Wii Browser, if you want. It'll always be up on my mediafire though.

As soon as 7z support is fixed, and a few more items are added to the inventory, FlowMart can officially go public and as such, can be added to the official Wiibrowser repertoire. Not sure what or how you plan to go about a new site gave92, but why not just create an official Wiibrowser thread. Or the Google code page seems sufficient. Filetrip would also serve your purpose, I think.

Nice job, CheatFreak47!!
As for the icon.png i'll go with the one you posted earlier (american one), it really looks better xD

drakorex bad news: 7z files won't work (most of them anyway), and this is because of the library I'm using to decompress:
wiixplorer uses the same one (and has the same problems), so you can use it to test specific files.
As for the site I think i'll just move downloads to my dropbox.

EDIT: WOAH I'M THE BEST I DID IT!!

EDIT2: drakorex To clarify the sentence above: I've fixed the 7z extraction, and in this wiibrowser is now better than wiixplorer.

Ok thanks for the heads up, well make due with what we got, I would have preferred not to re-host but so be it. Hopefully they'll be cool with any requests we send.

Hehe woops ninja'd with an edit.

The aftervista site says the bandwidth exceeded.

You...Are a coding GOD! FUCK YEAH, gave92, FUCK YEAH!
So is the link from before updated then?

 

[gave92]

Same as before -> here

 

[drakorex]

Well, 7z extracting is fixed...I think. It hasn't code dumped, but I've been staring at the darn extraction animation for about five minutes now. Makes me wish I knew how much longer it's got. Now I'm about to turn off the wii and try again...

 

[gave92]

What are you trying to decompress? If you send it to me I'll be able to test it.

Carbonik purple

While you're at it, I went onto wiflowiki and tried to grab 8bit Playground, but when I boot it up, it downloads and then the screen goes black, the music keeps playing.It worked, but still. Rars blackscreen now on extraction?. Odd...

 

[gave92]

That shortcut contains illegal characters: "DownloadFolder +AD0- /wiiflow/themes/"
As for the carbonik theme all seems fine: I tested it on my pc and it took 5.5 minutes to extract, I don't want to think how much time will it take on wii.
I can't do much about this, you may try a smaller file e.g. this

EDIT: please try the updated boot.dol (same link as before), it may solve the issue..

 

[MassiveRican]

No way for now, as that url is FTP:// protocol instead of HTTP://.
I'll see what to do.

EDIT: I've fixed this issue in the SVN, with the next version you will be able to use ftp shortcuts too.

drakorex i didn't get a chance to test the FTP d/loads before I lost everything, did u get an opportunity to use FlowMart with FTP?

I dunno what the hell is goin on there. I just tried the multidownload thing, and +AD0- popped up in place of all =. And +AF8- for any _. It wasn't that way when I saved it in Word.

StartPage1 = http://download1831.mediafire.com/634daa94657g/9rvkos6o70vlwvj/8bit plygrg-m.rar

StartPage2 = https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/6aqel5f6g2rdbqh/8bit plygrnd-m.zip?token_hash=AAFr2hJ8epX1cir-8ThvcGXVFqmW6CCHXq8404ZClk_Feg&dl=1

DownloadFolder1 = /wiiflow/themes/

DownloadFolder2 = /wiiflow/source_menu/

UnzipFile = 1

FlowMartMode = 1

Here's the ini I used. The first one downloads and extracts, but it doesn't try to download the second one. I tried first without a blank line between startpage1 and startpage2 (same with the download folders). I know there has to be a blank line after UnzipFile = 1 for it to work, but no luck.

I tried both urls separately and they work fine.

 

[gave92]

No the second works fine, it's the first that has problems because it's a mediafire link that expires after some time

No, the theme downloaded, but the source menu from my dropbox didn't.

 

[gave92]

Just tried and for me is the reverse
I'll see what to do

Ok, so other than the urls, do I at least have the formatting set up correctly?

Just tried your setup here, only the first one downloaded/extracted.
