already on it

Well, I Install Playstats on my sd/app/ start it with Homebrew, I see some stats, but all I see is USB Loader use! no game use....
on the last week, 33 hours play with USB loader...

I use a forwarder channel to sd/app/usb-loader/
old rev or new one... same result...

How to fix that, I like to know how many time kid play with Wii....

How would i change the font color of the buttons text, and settings text, and popup text? I tried the command in theme.txt and GXtheme.cfg, but it just doesnt work! Please help!

just an idea to make the loading of images much faster!

What if you combined all menu png's into one composite so they are bunched
together onto one png and then you can mask (set x and y coordinates) out
what image you would want to use for each menu image. The loader would
only have to load one png then and just crop out what image they would want
to use for each menu item.

I can confirm that the new cIOS36 rev11 will let the usage of other usb device and it works with this loader. thanks to all

Are you saying that cIOS36 rev11 is out?

I know everyone has been asking alot of this program. But I thank we all see that it is one of the best out there and you update it at least five times a day. So I will make my request for what I would love to see on this loader. I have been checking out other loaders from this web site http://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/index.php/USB_Loader_Releases and songs UniiLoader has a dvd game loader to let it star a disk wii or gamecube. It also can be started from perloader and saves all files to fat partion on usb hard drive which means no sd card is need to run it. Next is uloader which has a menu like the wii menu. Although the menu dose not look all that good because of the 16 channels. I would love to see a boxart icon button to make a list of boxart buttons to click on to start a game. Here is what I am taking about

Well heres hoping you can do this with + and - buttons for page right and left.
Ulloader also makes you use one usb port for hard drive and makes the other usb port for other usb stuff.
UniiLoader also alows for hide games in simple mode to keep kids from playing some games.
Now if all that was just to easy for you. I would like to see video .avi playback with mp3 suport and network,usb fat for this. Yes and also a way to star emulators and other programs. Sorry for going on like this I am a Xbmc fan and see the wii as the next level of the xbox.
Well thank you for a great loader and any changes like the ones I would like to see.

@Royusmc

I hate to rain on your parade, but they are probably not going to change the visual interface that much. The other enhancements are possible, but have you seen the current wishlist? I think they want to get those done before diving into some of your suggestions. The suggestion of FAT has been made and is being debated all over the boards... personally the WBFS is pretty quick, the only thing you gain by FAT is drag and drop. Great for ease of use, not entirely necessary.

In support though, I would like to see the implementation of the "store everything on the HD."

Just my 10 cents. Take it or leave it.

Royusmc · May 22, 2009

Thank you weiff for the quick reply. I did not mean to make you thank I want you to change the look of your very nice looking program. I have changed and created my own skin in xbmc for the xbox so I was hoping that it might be as easy to make a button that changes the display to show boxart as a selecting game. And I know that two rows of 5 or 6 might not look all that good and may need to make it 3 rows or however it looks best. I wish I as good at making wii apps as I am with xbmc skins. But I know I thought it would take forever to make my own skin for the xbmc. But after 5 days of realy hard work my skin looked great. And if you guys can make a program look this good I know you can do all this and more. But these our just a few ways to go, after all this is your baby and I am just enjoying your work. Thanks again!

I was going to ask the same thing ... can't wait for this loader to start using rev11.

self_slaughter · May 22, 2009

now that the new Libwiigui is out will usbloadergx be changed to use that so we can make use of the new functions and browse the sd card for folders / files instead of having to remember the paths then type them in through the settings menu?

marinos35 · May 22, 2009

Latest revision (alpha/beta/whatever)
r387

New libogc is used so some SD/SDHC bugs may have been fixed

OR
check the site http://tinyurl.com/USBLoaderGX
for elf, channel, forwarder, icon, meta, covers pack, language files, covers pack, disc pack, old hermes 222 which was compatible blabla

(NEWS page informs about the important stuff)
(plz read first post or help page at site before asking)

People who cant load the loader or having some troubles
they should try to use .ELF
since .ELF is a lot more accurate in processing code

VERY UNSTABLE !!!!

After changing the path to images and getting back to the main menu, it just jump to HBC by random !!!!

AdamBrunt · May 22, 2009

Checking the 3rd help video it says that cIOS222 (the one that lets uLoader use the LAN adaptor and other USB devices) is optional. Does this mean that if I have it installed then this loader uses the LAN adaptor as well ?

cyrex · May 22, 2009

Indeed, if you boot the loader into cIOS222 you can.

Ok, you've lost me there.

At the moment, I use a forwarder channel to load GX (by replacing the boot.dol the forwarder was originally pointing to).

How do boot the loader into a particular cIOS ? I know that stuff like uLoader (the Hermes one) let's you open backups from the loader under a particular cIOS but how do you do it with the loader itself ?

TiMeBoMb4u2 · May 22, 2009

Hey, YouTube video masters... Will you please post a video of the new USBLoader GX, in action? Maybe, someone could even update the first post, since it is still showing videos of older revisions.

Thanks!

I have a question on the parental controls. There are levels 0-3. What does each one mean?
Is there a way to globally lock out Mature rated games?

This got burried from yesterday. I hope someone can answer this for me. I've searched, but found nothing.

Thanks for all the hard work

TiMeBoMb4u2 · May 22, 2009

A new version of Tantric's "libwiigui" has been released.
Anyone compile using the new version, yet?

v1.03 - 2009-MAY-22
* Add file browser class to template - browses your SD card
* New images for the template (thanks mvit!)
* Add a function to get the parent element

babibel · May 22, 2009

Just a little word to say that all the last revisions (370+) crash for me if i parentalcontrol is set to 1 in the config file, regardless of what is set in the titles.txt (in fact, if i don't use any titles.txt the USBloader don't crash, if i add a proper-non-edited titles.txt on the SDCard, it crashes).

I opened an issue on wiki for that, don't hesitate to ask for missing informations, tests, file replacements, config files or whatever, i'm ready to help

IlluminiX · May 22, 2009

R387 has major issues for me:

- Previous (R385) Settings no longer work - when I change themes, it won't change to what I set it to.
- Disk images work initially, then when I return from Settings, all show No Images (Have to click SD card to get them back)
- Won't show music (ogg) in backgroundmusic folder that displayed in R385
- Doesn't save settings when reload the loader
- Clicking Home button takes longer than usual to bring up HOME Menu (like 2 seconds for some reason)
- Recurring bug: Always have to Un-Lock the loader every time you change something in Settings!

Ayyyy.
