Hacking FINALLY! Hungyip figured out image reload issue!

wiimano · Apr 13, 2009

If there is anyone out there who had the same issue as me. This is why the images were not loading from sd card if you had "waiting for usb device"

explanation from hungyip...

when the loader try to redetect the harddisk

it reload IOS249, and that shutdown the SD card device

that's why image loading would not work

and i added a line of code to initialize the SD drive again

at first i thought it was something wrong with the image loading part

brisma initialize the SD drive everytime before he load the image

[/quote]

In menu.c

After the line

Code:

ret = WBFS_Init(wbfsDev, timeout);

Add the following line:

Code:

Fat_MountSDHC();

this is just my guess about the cause of the bug:

inside usb-loader.c, in the usb retry code, the SD device would be unmounted, and since the SD device is unmounted during retry, the images could not be loaded.

This explain why the background could be load but not the cover arts (because background is loaded before the usb retry)

So what I did is to re-mount sd drive after the retry.

everyone whos making loaders, make sure you add this to your source, so this issue is gone forever!

thanks again mate

nice fix mate, hope every loader will merge your snippets. by the way, can you point out where the changes were done?

wiimano · Apr 14, 2009

i need hungyip to chime in here on this, he fixed it, i only gave him the issue, said he just added another line, he will reply shortly, get the word out to all coders out there to add this, thank you mates

Which version is?

wiimano · Apr 14, 2009

this is V6 of ultimate loader, but all loaders need to add this to their source, so it will read from sd card and not shut it down if it has to wait for usb drive

brisma got it right, hungyip recognized it and every loader out there needs to add this for all future loaders

Don Killah · Apr 14, 2009

thanks mate.

wiimano · Apr 14, 2009

thanks again, hopefully by now everyone has added this to the code

Slimmmmmm · Apr 14, 2009

Can anyone test this and see if it resolves the problems with SSBB, and DLC in games that read from the SD ?

waninkoko · Apr 14, 2009

SD unmounted? WBFS_Init() never unmounts the SD card...

Sorry, wasn't sure m8

WiiCrazy · Apr 14, 2009

Holy s..t,

Waninkoko's loader seems to be only working with sdhc cards... where did the standard sd card support go?

fatInitDefault just code dumps... any idea?

waninkoko · Apr 14, 2009

Don't try fatInitDefault() while using my SDHC module. The SDHC module supports SD and SDHC.

well then it doesn't seem to be working with my sd card... I mean your SDHC module... am I missing anything?

ps1: by the way just figured out, loader doesn't include ogc fat.h but of it's own...
ps2: does it work for everyone (sd access) but just me?
ps3: hmm sorry... yet I didn't installed new cios... guess that's the reason...
