Oh it does? I sure am not update to date with all the Haxchi development. So that means holding a button goes straight into CFW-patched Wii U menu?
the only thing cfw booter does is load a "fw.img" from your sd card, if you look closely in that config you might notice that it literally does the exact same, so if you were to load the .elf instead of using the direct code in haxchi you essentially just waste additional elf loading time.

Great work! One question concerning the config.txt file. Can I add other apps like this for different buttons?

Code:
a=fw.img
default=wiiu/apps/homebrew_launcher/homebrew_launcher.elf
b=wiiu/apps/wupinstaller/wupinstaller.elf
y=wiiu/apps/cfwbooter/cfwbooter.elf

Just saying, for CFW Booter, the elf is cfwboot.elf by default. You put cfwbooter.elf. Also here is a page where you can see all the buttons: https://github.com/FIX94/haxchi/blob/master/dsrom/option_select/main.c#L57-L75

It won't work, currently you need to buy the DS VC from eshop.

Nice, FIX94. Thanks for all your hard work! Is it worth "updating" to 2.0 if I already have a functioning coldboot with Haxchi 1.8?

You have to compile it or get it from "that iso site". And yes, you can proceed to install more games to USB thanks to that "Brazilian exploit" with WUP Installer y mod.

Edit: I've got a question as well: Is there something already worked on to autoboot that haxchi VC game? Cause that'd be almost everything needed for some kind of LumaU.

Sorry if this is already answered, but are there specifications on editing the .tga files for the boot screen and the icon? I tried to edit them in gimp but it caused the Haxchi game to become unreadable until I installed Haxchi with the stock graphics.

I would like to know as well because I had the same issue. I noticed the file became 931 KB after I exported it whereas the original file is 1201 KB. I've tried exporting another this time unchecking RLE compression and it came out to 1602 KB so I'm going to assume that won't work either. If I upload the file could somebody do me a kindness and export it to a proper .tga for the Wii U?

Great program by the way FIX94. I would have been done in a matter of minutes if I wasn't so anal about splash screens and word rapping.

I thought that Team SALT is working on that one
