    Hacking USB Loader - Adding a new game screws up another one

    Uploaded a new version. Changelog: * fast defrag does not corrupt games anymore (but uses more local disk space) * quick defrag should be safer also (but is still experimental) + option to set the NTFS compress flag of ISO folder (leads to smaller ISO sizes and seams to speed up extraction)...

    This only applies to full defrag. Quick defrag is still faster because it does not reinstall all games. I've still not found corrupted games while using quick defrag with all games extracted before.

    i know, but it is the only way until someone makes libwbfs to not overwrite used space

    Ok, I found out why error 4 occures. While there should be enough free continuous space for the first game to be installed, it overwrites the second. It's a wbfslib bug I think. For now if you want to defrag your drive extract ALL of your games first. TroyTheZombie's idea of using a ntfs...

    Error 4 means file is not supported. Which Game did you try to extract? Perhaps it was corrupted before.

    My WBFS GUI with defrag functions is out. WBFS GUI v0.1.2 (uploaded.to). Perhaps you can test if it is still possible to corrupt a drive while using defrag.

    you are right. there is a 64 byte long area for the name. But if you rename by extracting, renaming and reinstalling, it can damage other games if your drive was fragmented.

    Actually it is totally different from fat or any other filesystem. What we call formatting in these days only builds the small management area of the filesystem (and some diskchecking if you do not use quick format). You can even turn a partition with random data in a valid wbfs partition in no...

    I'm working at a defrag method for my WBFS GUI at the moment. But it will be slow: My idea is to extract all games, that would be overwritten by installing a new game, and reinstall them. This should close the gaps between the games. What do you think?
