Hacking WiiFlow - an open source GUI USB-Loader

[Maxternal]

Fix,have you found any time to check if it is possible to intergrate Swiss to Wiiflow?

Would swiss really be necessary? It seems to me like it would be a lot of work for little to (no?) gain. DML is working pretty well.

Only thing I can think of is being able to plug in that USB adaptor, but last I tried swiss it did not have much compatibility, is it better now?

Yeah, having a separate Gamecube hard drive connected that way would be cool. Also, just having a second SD with other games in the Gecko would be nice to not have to be swapping out cards all the time. ( I like not having to get up off the couch at all . )

Really, though, since I'm not even sure if Swiss has the option to enter directly like that, to have those options you could always go over to the DML people and ask them to include Gecko support, etc.
That way WiiFlow could let you chose between them like you switch through partitions with Wii games.

Fix, Can Wiiflow Browse in following Order:
Wii Games > GC Games > Nands > Homebrew.
It'll be nicer to go to DML with just 1 click.

Here try this wiiflow boot dol. I made it so you just point at the channel/usb/dml/homebrew button and then use the wiimote control pad + to select what you want to view.

http://www.wupload.com/file/2662902282/boot.dol
up = wii games
down = gc dml games
left = homebrew
right = channels

only thing is this is my own personnal mod not ok'd by overjoy and fix.

if you share the source maybe others can benefit (or maybe it would be added in).

I agree. It's a cool feature and It would be a shame to loose it when they add things to the main version and it's less work to copy and paste it in than to have to work it out themselves.
The ability to hit (A) and go through the above order OR scroll through them with the + pad would be cool.
(There's a link to Attach File when you submit an issue on Google Code, send them you're changes. ).

By the way, just curious, what revision is your code based off of?

I already sent fix94 the code but he paid no attention.

if (m_btnMgr.selected(m_mainBtnChannel) || m_btnMgr.selected(m_mainBtnUsb) || m_btnMgr.selected(m_mainBtnDML) || m_btnMgr.selected(m_mainBtnHomebrew))
{
bool cv=false;
if (BTN_UP_PRESSED)
{
m_current_view = COVERFLOW_USB;
cv = true;
}
if (BTN_DOWN_PRESSED && m_show_dml)
{
m_current_view = COVERFLOW_DML;
cv = true;
}
if (BTN_LEFT_PRESSED && show_homebrew && (parental_homebrew || !m_locked))
{
m_current_view =  COVERFLOW_HOMEBREW;
cv = true;
}
if (BTN_RIGHT_PRESSED && show_channel)
{
m_current_view = COVERFLOW_CHANNEL;
cv = true;
}
if (cv)
{
m_category = m_cat.getInt(_domainFromView(), "category", 0);
LoadView();
}
}

add it at line# 258 in main.cpp

i used r115 but you can add it to r117 and would be able to use the old method and my method.

 

[VashTS]

uhhhh main.cpp only has 134 lines. maybe im looking in the wrong spot?

I think he meant to say menu_main.cpp - It looks like it would work in there around the location he specified, with the button mapping code.

I havent ignored you, I just wanted to add the new view order idea in the original code sheme. The idea may be nice but a bit confusing and I'm not sure if we should add it without asking the others.

I think it's a great idea
What about the OSD info?

 

[Damian666]

In wiiflow Pressing UP=Right / Down=Left (2 lost buttons!!)
I think the best option here is to keep Right and Left function as is, and to assign Wii Games for UP and GC games for Down
Homebrew and Nands can be accessed by pressing the button +/- Holding B.

AbdallahTerro make sure your pointer is on the usb/channels/dml/homebrew button when you try it otherwise it will just make the covers move

Sorry it just seemed that way I guess you are pretty popular and busy right now. There seems to be 3 people already liking the idea?

 

[VashTS]

how about adding the options into wiiflow as separate icons? im not a programmer so i don't know how easy of difficult it would be but how about when you put the hand over the icon to switch, its pops upwards with all four options available then you just pick what one you want.

I will add it as option in the wiiflow.ini to enable it if you want.

The problem is the size of it To the idea with the popup that would be hard I suppose...

I like your proposal of a "source selector", to avoid having to cycle through all sources.

Hey, is it ok for everyone how I added it in r118 now?
