Hacking [PC-APPS] WiiCoverDownloader

[actar]

OK, at the end a made a merge of our translations. ^__^

@bedins6
Then let me know if you find/understand the problem.
If, as I think it's just that you have the boot.dol of cfg in another folder (not "apps\usbloader\"), in a future release I can do it editable.

@ actar,
Exactly. The folder is called usb-loader and not usbloader. I look forward to the next version .

@ richardjouir,

Great job

Hello actar,

Thank you very much. my usb-loader folder is now detected

Hello actar,

Thank you very much. my usb-loader folder is now detected

That's s good.

anyway:
v3.0 (01/03/2013)

• tab-stop and tab-index corrected where necessary
• Changed function for check and verify titles (more faster)
• Also titles.txt will downloaded for selected gametdb language
• Code clean and some little fix.
• Now everything should be as I wanted: I hope you like it
• Until no one will report me a problem: NO MORE RELEASE.

The last point is the best (for the happiness of the world).

Hi Actar. I'd like very much your program and it works very well!!!

I'm using Nintendont for Gamecube titles and my folder is made is this way:
USBROOT -> games > Game Name [GameID] -> game.iso instead of USBROOT -> games > GameID -> game.iso

Is it possible to modify your program to use this directory structure?

Thank you very much!!!

Hi, Actar. I have a humble request. Can you load the game list from a .TXT file instead of a device? I have no internet at home, and I don't want to bring my Wii hard drive to the office because I live way too far from work, so it is way easier for me to simply save the list of games I have, bring the .txt file with me and let my office PC do the work during the night. To get the list on a .txt file on Windows I run:
cd wbfs (to get to my wbfs folder)
dir /b /a:d > list.txt (to save the list of folders in list.txt)
I made a python script that works, but it doesn't have your neat gui. You could also add a "Save list to a .txt file" so everyone can do the same, since I have seen a lot of people trying to download covers from a PC and it would save them the bother of carrying a hard drive across town. This would make your app completely portable, since I can run it from a thumbdrive without needing my wbfs device conected to my PC all the time. So, my basic flow would be:
1- Plug the wbfs device on my PC at home.
2- Generate a .txt file with my game list.
3- Open the .txt file on a PC with internet connection.
4- Profit
Could you please consider it? I am a software developer as well and adding this function wouldn't be so much problem for you.
