First of all, sorry if this has been answered somewhere else, but a quick search didn't provide any results.
So, i have recently started using WiiFlow, and i'm pretty happy with it.
I have downloaded a few trailers for my game, and this is my question:
The trailers freeze a lot.
I have them on my SDHC card, while my games are on my usb drive.
I'm on system menu 4.3, and Wiiflow is, i suppose, the latest release, since i got it from the official website.
Is it normal for the trailers to freeze?
Or is it because of my sd card, or something else?

Do you happen to have the real background of this ?? I've spent an hour or two messing around wiiflow's "adjust settings" option and now everything moves just like in the video.
Don't forget to publish it when done!

I'm glad to hear that this feature will be included in the next release! I have really liked the direction that wiiflow is moving in, and IMO it is the best loader out there.

Thanks again to everyone involved in this project, and especially to r-win and miigotu.

The colors are RGBA, so white is 0xFFFFFFFF, red is 0xFF0000FF, blue is 0x0000FFFF, etc.

Hey!

I would love to see that theme in action.
Please do share when done!
Where can I see the video for that?

Regards.

r-win, please take a look on this: http://gbatemp.net/t264014-black-ops-ap-pr...t&p=3253587

wtf you must load ios 224 before you start cod:bo using ios 249 base 57? otherwise multiplayer won't work ...
Same with CFG Loader ...
Thanx Narolez!

That tells me two things:
1. It isn't a wiiflow problem
2. Hermes does some initializations that wanin doesn't...

It might as wel be the opendip that does the other initialization. Anyway, what happens if you load ios 222 or 223 before starting? It can't be a simple IOS check, since a game can't retrieve the IOS it's running under. It can check for devices, like PoP did, but that wouldn't explain why it works when loading 249 via 224...

Strange case, but good find! Well done.

For example you must use 249 version of Wiiflow and start the game with 224 or use the 224 version of Wiiflow and start the game with 249 - both with 57 as base. Otherwise the multiplayer- and zombie-mode black screens.

Wiiflow 224 without starting the game with 249 will not work. Same with 222-38, 223-37/38 or 249-38,56,57 stand alone.

Same scenario with CFG Loader or USB Loader GX.

But the base for rev20 has to be 57 correct?

Got it now. I just installed the latest 250 beta for Wiiflow and used cIOS 224. Everything works.

I have a problem with Sonic Colours(Pal) and USB Loader GX
I used USB loader GX with the latest Cios and the game played smoothly until i got to the 3rd Act of Tropical Island. The level wont load ,the music stops and the screen goes black after about 10 seconds. After a few tries, I started a new game and used Gamma r9 to load the game this time and nothing changed? Is there a fix for this?

I am trying to use the "ignore standby" option in priiloader so that I may keep the forecast channel working (for tiger 11), but not keep my wii and hd running all the time. It shuts of if I power it off in the menu, but in wiiflow to goes to standby mode. I'm not sure if this is a cios, priiloader, or wiiflow issue. Just wondering if anyone could give me some insight?

I'm using:
249v19
beta 4 of priiloader
wiiflow 263

Thanks, miss the constant updates, but keep up the great work!

Yeah, there is a fix, try WiiFlow

.

Seriously, i don't know if WiiFlow runs the game, maybe it's the game maybe not, but HAVE you tried playing the game with WiiFlow?
And if you did, than probably its the game, a bad dump or it needs patching. I havent heard of a problem with the game...maybe nobody noticed yet.
