changes:
- Added shutdown to idle standby option on page 12 of main settings. Set to yes for idle standby (yellow light). issues #91 and #29. wii u users leave off.
- added options to copy real nand config and miis to emunand on page 3 of emu nand settings. if set to 'on' then when you launch a emu nand game sysconfig and/or miis from real nand will be copied to emu nand before launching the game. this solves issue
#90 to keep your controllers synced in emu nand mode.
- set wiiflow to default to using cIOS. if you want to use IOS58 go to startup settings and set force load cios to 'no'.
-
#92 doubled the length of char wfcTitle[] to 128 for long plugin rom titles. fixes possible rom covers not showing do to their title being longer than 64.
-
#93 added .gcm as a extension for gamecube ISO's.
- fixed hiding homebrew icon via homebrew settings option.
- fix game info plugin databases for systems that share the same database files by adding [COMBINED] into platform ini which will associate the platform name with the database name. for example: genesis=megadrive, famicom=nes. you must have the updated platform ini for this commit to work.
- saving sourceflow tiers flow's to wiiflow lite ini under [SOURCEFLOW] now instead of the source menu/tier ini.
- update for custom backgrounds. no longer add background= to source menu buttons. place backgrounds in wiiflow/backgrounds or wiiflow/backgrounds/{theme_name}. name them the same as the platform names under [PLUGINS] in platform ini. match case size. they can be png or jpg.
- now you can use subfolders to organize your wiiflow/plugins folder make sure to adjust dolfile and bannersound paths if need be.
- now scummvm ini doesn't have to be in wiiflow/plugins. it can be in wiiflow/plugins/scummvm or apps/scummvm.
- now platform ini is loaded on wiiflow start. instead of constantly loading and unloading it. platform ini is now used for gameinfo, coverflows, blank cover titles, and more.
- fixed some missing cleanup when leaving wiiflow. in particular the pointer textures and closing the language ini.
- new way to handle the custom blank covers by Abz. blank covers now must go in wiiflow/boxcovers/blank_covers folder and must be named after their platform name via platform ini. they can also now be png or jpg.
- fixed source menu autoboot and changing themes in main settings.
- added get crc for dosbox conf files. thanks wiimpathy!
- improved cover loader by adding 3 tries to load the covers. 2nd and third tries are there just to get any missing covers that didn't load the first time.
- homebrew list is now cached again. if you add or delete an app you must do a reload cache.
- homebrew covers must go in wiiflow/boxcovers/homebrew for full covers or wiiflow/covers/homebrew for 2d front covers.
- now using a cache subfolder named homebrew for homebrew covers wfc files. to keep them separate from the game ID games.
- sourceflow now does cache covers the first time and any time you load a new tier. if the covers are already cached then you will only see the progress bar for a split second.
- added using platform ini to get the proper coverflow from the current coverflow ini. requires the updated platform ini and an updated coverflow ini.
- removed the hard coded sideflow and shortflow.
- fixed using custom backgrounds whenever returning back to the game selected screen.
