Many magic # are still not used here because many consoles are emulated by 2 or 3 plugins

To be used with plugin pack v6+ in my sig or v6++ that will be released later

:)

Edit: there are 2 sega saturn buttons (by mistake) will correct this in my next Jumbo-Pack :P

has anyone gotten the prboom plugin working in wiiflow? i have it running fine in retroarch, but cant seem to get it to work from within wiiflow. if anyone whos gotten it running could post their .ini file, it would help me out a lot.

ALSO... my fceugx/vbagx/snes9xgx plugins arent displaying the rom names.. every rom in fceugx comes up as "Nintendo" and every snes9xgx rom comes up as "Super Nintendo" etc. its using the DisplayName for all the games... i have no idea why. im using the .ini files fix94 created which use "arguments={device}:/{path}|{name}|{loader}" not sure whats goin on...

[PLUGIN]
magic=5052424D
coverColor=000000
coverFolder=Wads
fileTypes=.wad
romDir=wiiflow/plugins/wads
dolFile=prboom.dol
bannerSound=
displayname=Wads
consoleCoverID=prboom
arguments={device}:/{path}/|{name}

well that doesnt help...

my doom wads are in "sd:apps/retroarch-wii/additional-files/doom" which is how retroarch says to have it setup. if i try loading wads from any other location it just makes retroarch codedump.
I have my Doom WADS, prboom.wad, and the music @ "USB1:/retroarch/Doom/" and both Retroarch and Wiiflow are functioning fine.

thanks buddy, thats what i needed to know! its now working :) too bad the prboom.wad shows up in the list with doom1, doom2, etc

any idea how i might fix my other problem,

"my fceugx/vbagx/snes9xgx plugins arent displaying the rom names.. every rom in fceugx comes up as "Nintendo" and every snes9xgx rom comes up as "Super Nintendo" etc. its using the DisplayName for all the games... i have no idea why. im using the .ini files fix94 created which use "arguments={device}:/{path}|{name}|{loader}" not sure whats goin on..."

thanks
the same is happening to me with rom names im unsure if there using the displayname thougth as my snes.ini is set to display name snes but its showing super nintendo for all snes roms and thats what my rom folders name is.
 
Is anybody getting code dumps when running through the Sega CD games? Every time I attempt to browse through the games, it just code dumps. I don't know if it's the way I setup the plugin for it or what. Since I couldn't find a plugin for it in the plugin pack, I just copied the sega genesis ini file and modified it. I also made sure I assigned a unique magic number to it.

hey, this is fixed in r772. it was caused by having a "." in your rom path.. "super.nintendo/roms" etc

thanks fix94! :D

@seam glad that got fixed 4 ya bro. As usual Fix gets to the root of the problem. I don't think I would have even caught that one really. Although I have noticed that Super Mario Bros. hasn't been appearing recently in my game list for Nintendo, probably that's why, I'll see If they show up now with r772.

yea, but i still cant figure out how to use wii64 with not64.. i put both magicnumbers in the sourcemenu.ini in the correct spot... have you had any luck setting it up?
 
Noticed a while back that after I added some new vids, some of my movies (scott pilgrim, at least) no longer shows up, even after reloading cache. Any idea why?
 
Hey drakorex any chance you updating the brillaiant whitewii theme keep up the good work man :)
well its not my theme but what do you need updated on it?
oh i thought it was on the exit to menu the exit to neek is out o fplace and also the help menu is out of place be great if you could sort it man
do you know who the original author is

Isn't whitewii Jiiwah's theme?

@Seam I was being sincere when I asked why use Wii64 still. If there are any benefits I'm willing to try out the multiple plugin option, if there are no benefits other than I can use another loader at the same time, it's not something I want to go through any headaches with to get it to work.

Edit: All my Super Mario Bros. games with a "." are now showing up with r772. However @fix94 before a final 4.0.3 release could you fix the manual reload issue. "B+Home" simply won't work for me to restart WF. It's a small bug which isn't a big deal by any means but it just shouldn't be there. Am I the only one experiencing this problem?

Edit2: If possible custom_title.ini support for emu's would be fantastic. Mainly for NEO-GEO since you can't change the actual file name or else FBA just gives a rom error.
 
man.. has ANYONE gotten the newly added multi magicnumber thing to work in the source menu??? if so please post how
works for me. here's my n64 btn from the source_menu.ini

[BUTTON_8]
image=n64.png
image_s=n64.png
source=plugin
magic=57493634,4E4F3634
emuflow=1


here's my wii64.ini

magic=57493634
arguments={device}:/{path}|{name}|{loader}
coverColor=ffffff
coverFolder=wii64
fileTypes=.n64|.v64|.z64|.zip
romDir=wii64/roms
dolFile=wii64-mod3.dol
bannerSound=n64.ogg
displayname=Wii64
ReturnLoader=yes


and my not64.ini

[PLUGIN]
magic=4E4F3634
coverColor=ffffff
coverFolder=wii64
fileTypes=.n64|.v64|.z64|.zip
romDir=not64/roms
dolFile=not64-20120905.dol
bannerSound=n64.ogg
displayname=Not64
consoleCoverID=nintendo
arguments=rompath = "{device}:/{path}/{name}"


make sure all your slashes are forward slashes '/'
 
good bye wiiflow for me, I have not had any luck ... I do not speak English and I'm not an engineer. This is a shame ...

Enjoy

okay ... now that i have a little time. WhiteWii and BlackWii are both made by Drexyl. You can find him on IRC a lot. In the ones I have exit to neek2o isn't even an option. he seems to have moved it off screen to hide it. This makes me think you have an old version. Try going here to download the most recent versions by Drexyl - https://sites.google...ck-white-themes

Then try IRC to get a hold of drexyl and ask him how to fix it. If that doesn't work then I will send you the text to fix the buttons you want fixed so you can fix it yourself but i can't edit the theme and post it.
