It would be good to add on the loader, if you put a game on the drive and option to play of the disc. Sometimes to check outt he game first or something. Basically were you can play games of the HDD or fron the dvd drive.

The loader is pretty kool though, daughter loves it.

Is there alist of games were you have to set up game fix on them. Maybe this could be done automatically from a website or soemthing.

Not that I have found. There was a post on PAL games somewhere a page or 2 back. I am about to post a list of game/fixes for NTSC, but to be certain they should work, you would need to be on NTSC-U (which I gather you are) ...have 4.1 Sys Menu, and be on Rev14.

Here's the latest compiled dol from the stable branch:

http://www.mediafire.com/?decf3o0cytm

It includes a fix for www.usbgecko.com being down - codes are now downloadable again. Plus better handling of bad cheat file downloads.

Same usbgecko.com fix applied to the UNSTABLE SVN:

http://www.mediafire.com/?lohzhuhntvl

PS The UNSTABLE build also includes alt dol loading from the disc image...

Simple fix. If you're on Rev 13 (not b) or Rev 14, turn Presetfix in the wiicoverflow.xml to 1 to turn the fix on for all games. It has no negative effects on games that don't need it.

This includes initial support for alternate dol loading from from SD/USB (enable it in game settings)
Place your alternate dol (named with the game's ID eg. RZPP01.dol) into SD:/usb-loader/altdol/

Is this a potential future fix for loading dlc for say Rockband /Guitar Hero from SD card while playing the game from the USB drive?


That is a cios issue not a loader issue, so this won't help at all.

what do u do if u still get the 002 green screen error in some games using the coverfloader, even when the 002 error fix is ticked on in the GX loader?? do u have to do the xxxx.dol trick and copy it to the sd card for each game giving the error?, like it was the way for Wii sports resort.

yeah a little more info would be helpful such as ...ohh I dunno..maybe the name of the games you are having issues with?

I am almost complete instead a few hundred games using CF 1.1 , and am on NTSC-U V14 with 4.1 menu . If you are on the same, I MAY very well be able to give you the settings I used to get games to work. There are currently only just a handful of games that require the alt-dol.


ok...I'm using CF 1.1 on a PAL with menu 4.1 with IOS 249 (rev 14) and latest upto date USB loader GX.

I just went through all my games and these are the games which gives me problems :-

EA Sports Active (PAL) - 002 error
Ghostbusters (NTSC) - blank green screen
Mario Party 8 (NTSC) - blank green screen
My Sims Racing (NTSC) - 002 error
Punch out (PAL) - 002 error
Sports Island 2 (PAL) - 002 error

some other games I got a blank, black screen or it booted me back to system menu, but whan I tried them again..they worked.

all these games work on neogamma R7 booting from the usb drive

on a side note...howcome neogamma R7 doesnt have the 002 error fix option, where as the lower versions do? or is it built in automatically now

How do you use alt-dols on cover floader? Does it play Wii Sport Resort? And how do you do this: Presetfix in the wiicoverflow.xml to 1 to turn the fix on for all games. ?

You need to use the attached dol (in the rar) which is a new version of the loader.

Hi all,
I'm currently having some trouble with Ocarina. The settings in Ocarina are no longer availbale. I downloaded the most recent boot.dol availble, without success. They are neither availbalbe in coverfloader 1.0 or 1.1
Does anyone know what could be the problem? Before they were visible...

Greetings,

Should be on your sd card in the usbloader folder


nope..looked in each one...I can only find meta.xml and I tried opening them but no settings which I can change to 1 in there

Yeah sorry it is there for me. I'm still on 1.1
ROOT --> usb-loader --> wiicoverflow.xml
