Hello, first of all, congratulations for the great job with this loader. It's good to see how the most part of games work very well.
I have some questions about how Nintendont works. The other day I was playing some games stored in my HDD and I noticed some issues (Nintendont being stuck at the start when trying to load the games and show the list... freezing the game after some time of play, GameCube "an error ocurred" screen...). I'm not sure if it could be problem of my hard disc (other times I didn't notice any problems and I load Wii games from that HDD too). Should I use an Y cable? I'm using it on a Wii and I have readed that it should have enough power for the HDD with one USB cable...
Well, after this problems I'm considering to buy and use an SD card to store the apps and store only the games in the HDD. As I still haven't the SD card, my questions are: if Nintendont app is on the SD card and you select USB to search for the games, will the saves be created/readed from the HDD or the SD? And what about the config and BIOS files? I still think Nintendont should have configurable directories...
Another problem is that at the start it takes too long to search for all the games. I think it should do this only if it's the first time you run Nintendont, saving your game list on a file and then, having a button to refresh the list if you want because you added or removed a game.... if you don't refresh the list, it should just read the file of your gamers instead of searching again for all the games you have. It would show the game list much faster.
And the last... I know you can use another loader to load GameCube games through Nintendont, but would be too much complex to make Nintendont show the cover of the game you are selecting in the Nintendont interface? (And talking about the interface, I would put Nintendont background image a bit more transparent).
