Yea,i tried with hbc,usb loader gx and riivolution and it's the same
then you'll need to explain what you did to set it up, where the files are located on your SD card, what is in your hbl2hbc.txt file and it's location, etc. otherwise we can't help.

please add a feature to have multiple config files/or a fowarder builder
like there's a script,you choose the title id you want to boot,then in the script folder you place the .tga files and bootsound and then it creates the fowarder , that you can install with wup installer GX2
this would be very cool

I'm hoping someone else does the dirty work for that. In the meantime, I was going to try setting up custom haxchi ones for it by following, I guess it's your guide here: https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-...brew-with-buying-only-one-haxchi-game.458646/

or maybe this: https://gbatemp.net/threads/guide-how-to-forward-homebrew-apps-straight-to-your-homemenu.476562/

I already created all the images (attached) but I haven't had time to test them yet.

EDIT: it wont let me remove the attachments... but I tested them and need to fix them up as they didn't work.


Bless you Nomalas! :) Can you make ones for these vWii channels Please and thank you..

NES - vWii - GCEU
SNES - vWii - SNGX
GAMEBOY - vWii - VBGX
SEGA - vWii - SGFW
Mega Man 9 - WR9E
Mega Man 9 - WRXE

Then I won't ever need to look at the vWii menu again :)

Just to let you know you can now over clock vwii to run at wii u clock speed so the emulators injected into wii vc will run a lot better now too. Shouldn't be any slow downs (not that many games suffer anyway)
yeah vc inject is def the way to go

I need help to boot directly into not64 emulator.
I have the forwarder installed on my vwii (TITLEID: WII64)

So I created the file hbl2hbc.txt at SD card root with the line:
WII64=WII64
But it doesn't work.

Hello,

I would like to have both USB Loader GX and HBC2HBL forwarders installed at the same time. When I install both, one overwrites the another...

I have tried to create an injection of USB Loader GX but it doesn't work well...Doesnt recognize the USB with Wii games and other stuff...

Could it be to create this forwarder with a totally different title id compared to the USB Loader GX one from this post? https://gbatemp.net/threads/usb-loader-gx-forwarder-channel-for-wii-u-menu.482595/

Thanks in advance,

Best regards

PS: @Nomelas asked for this in this thread: https://gbatemp.net/threads/release-wiiu2hbc-a-hbl2hbc-forwarder-channel.455991/page-5#post-7881474
Nomelas said:
so with this, how hard would it be to clone using a different titleID, different app path to hbl2hbc and having one for each thing you want to forward to?

For example, following this: https://gbatemp.net/threads/hbl2hbc-v1-1-boot-from-wiiu-hbl-into-vwii-hbc.455673/page-7#post-7115581 we can create multiple hb apps using different sd:/file.txt

so something like this:

default:
sd:/wiiu/apps/hbl2hbc/hbl2hbc.elf using config here: sd:/hbl2hbc.txt

cloned:
sd:/wiiu/apps/hbl2usbloadergx/hbl2usbloadergx.elf using config here: sd:/hbl2usb.txt


more examples:
sd:/wiiu/apps/hbl2wiiflow/hbl2wiiflow.elf using config here: sd:/hbl2wii.txt
sd:/wiiu/apps/hbl2cfgloader/hbl2cfgloader.elf using config here: sd:/hbl2cfg.txt
sd:/wiiu/apps/hbl2nintendont/hbl2nintendont.elf using config here: sd:/hbl2gcn.txt



How hard is it to create a forwarder channel for each of these? This can be accomplished using haxchi, but that's a much riskier approach if you use cbhc

Use showmewad app I think it’s called and open the forwarder wad for wii64 and u will get id

I made a small modification which switches to 480p mode before booting the channel, maybe someone else is interested. I did read on some sites that the wiiu does a poor job at upscaling to 720/1080p and picture quality is better if using native wii resolution (480p). But I often forget to switch before booting vWii so I made this modification of hbc2hbl (I'm only a hobby programmer so code might be horrible).

All credits go to Fix94 (as I used parts of his code from "wiiu-video-mode-changer")

(
location for hbl2hbc.elf is sd:/wiiu/apps/hbl2hbc
default hbl2hbc.txt included. location is root of sd card
)

I made another modification which allows to either turn the gamepad display off or use only the gamepad display (via the config file)

to use
add WIIU_GAMEPAD_DISPLAY=OFF or WIIU_GAMEPAD_DISPLAY=ONLY to hbl2hbc.txt (last line)
(if the line isn't present or other values: both displays will be used. If this isn't possible, next try is gamepad display then tv display, like before)

e.g.
LULZ=Homebrew Channel
UNEO=USB Loader GX
WIIU_GAMEPAD_DISPLAY=OFF

edit:
uploaded another version with small fix (to ensure display_mode variable is set if no config file is present)

This sounds great, i don't have my wii u right now so i can't try it, does this boot the wii mode in 480p and keeps the wii u mode in 1080p? Or does it switch the global setting to 480p?
