i have a problem, using wiiflow with emusave in partial mode work correctly but with complete wiiflows freeze on launching the game.
In partial i can run just dance 4 with my score but when i go to the store my music a not indicated purchased, maybe i need to change the directory of emusave to the directory of my emunand to have the information on the store purchased?

The codedump is this

That's a funny codedump, it thinks your WBFS partition is something else, why do you use WBFS anyways? I suggest you to switch to FAT32 or NTFS, then you can use your HDD for something else and wiiflow shouldn't codedump anymore.

hey ya lads. I read a few days ago about someone have issues with the graghics suddenly dissapearing, or morphing into this blob of colour that would please an acid trip. And I actually told him to theme perhaps, and if that didnt work that maybe he needed a fresh do-over. Well today, last night actually I am now getting the same problems and affects? Background textures are looking like colorized static. Boxcovers load slowly if at all. and when they do it acts like it can't load and display more than say 10 or 12 at a time. buttons on source_menu act like they cannot be read and iether display the internal star graghic, or nothing at all. But if I restart, everything allways satrts out working and looking proper. It's like the old memory leak problems of the win95-98 era were you needed to reboot to get full power back LOL.. except it happens MUCH more quickly. Since I know this has or is happening to at least 1 other person, I guess I can assume there is a big bug right?

I thought it doesnt detect any partitions? If it detects your sd card now or so, can you make a sd log by enabling "sd_write_log" and post the wiiflow.log on your sd card root here?

I've been getting the same thing too but more frequently. and also I've been trying to put new covers on and it says No more memory!

wiiflow dol is on USB2 and I use system menu forwarder.
My HDD has 4 partitions, USB2 being the one with games and all wiiflow files.

So, I did insert a SD now, and let wiiflow generate a .ini on it, and then enabled sd_write_log:

Funny that 4.0.1 and 4.0.5 beta only find 2 partitions on your usb drive, so both are going wrong. And in the 4.0.5 beta if you switch the usb things it only sees USB1? Because as you can see it also finds a second partition...

So it was a weird issue with WBFS? Oh well, I reinstalled WiiFlow on my SD card, reloaded the cache just in case and now it works just as good as it did before, no more problems loading that particular game. Will think about your suggestion ;)

I dont have any valid ps1 game so somebody in here can try that wiisx mod?
http://www.mediafire.com/?sm3ba2rccr9o08a

I got a few games to load, but had problems getting and kind of controller to work properly in game. Had to hit the reset button to attempt anything. Could get the GC controller, Wiimote, and Wimmote + Classic working in wiisx menu, but not in game even after changing configs. Good news is it did exit back to wiiflow properly from that menu.

BAHHH!! The new plugins were fun try try and set up but that darn glitch happened just as I was about to try out the psx plug. Can remember if the other lad posted a pic
but I snapped off a few shots for yas to look at and perhaps shed some insite. My hunch is something to do with simply hitting the Wii memory limits or something along those lines. anywho... on with the show :
