Hey guys! I used to use the usbloadergx and wiiflow but nowadays i prefer the cfgusbloader (better compatibility with my backups); But i do have one question: I've tried using the CfgLoaderConfiguratorv69 without sucess. All i wanna do is: to set the path to store the covers into the usb drive (like the usbloadergx); When i generate the "config.txt with all option" changing the global options 2 (into the field of the covers path) and overwrite the config.txt all i get is a DSI error.. Does somebody knows what my problem is?!
Thanks in advance!
I don't have space into the sd to store the covers.. so all i need is to change the device where the cfgusb loader stores the covers...

You should be specifying the path as usb:/path or ntfs:/path depending on whether the partition with the images is FAT32 or NTFS. If you've been doing that, then try specifying a directory without images on the same drive. If it then loads, then one of your game images might be corrupt and you're going to have to copy them over in batches until you find the one that doesn't work, or use the cover wizard in the Configurator to try to find the one that doesn't display correctly.

Hey Dr Clipper! Thank you for all your effort helping us! Now i got all my covers set into the usb!
Just one more question: Is it normal that always the covers appears after a few seconds? I can see all the covers but when i manage to turn right or left a hourglass appears and then i have to wait.. I really don't get why into wiiflow or usbloadergx this doesn't happen (even when loading from the usb). Is it a limitation of the usb read speed or an error into my configuration?

Has anyone been able to get Destroy All Humans! Big Willy Unleashed [RDHP78] to play on CFG Loader? The game will load to the title screen but I cant start a new game nor can I load from saves.
I have tried USB Loader GX and it plays fine but would rather not have to use another loader plus I prefer CFG.
Settings on both loaders are default.

I have no issues playing any other game on CFG.

It shouldn't take too long on the latest code, given it has the covers cache now, but the first time you see the covers, it would take a few seconds as it is updating the cache. Perhaps go in and test again now and see if it delays as long?

None of us have the game, nor desire to buy it, and we don't pirate, so we'll have to wait for a solution from the community. If this has been found for one of the other loaders, please let us know and we can work on building it in.

Thank you, i will w8 for a solution

I think the solution is to compile with older libogc/ppc, according to this (I don't know if anything else is needed, just trying to help)

Any effective ways of loading GCT files for SSBB? I placed them on USB:/codes and I open CFG up...nothing. The GCT file doesn't load, so I have to pop in my SD card and use GeckoOS to load them. What about the Private folders required for texture and music replacements?

I don't think so. It's a Ubisoft game. Ubisoft is the only company that actively puts checks in to stymie USB Loaders by looking for certain IOS features that shouldn't be in the normal ones. The solutions would be to find what they detect and modify d2x to hide that, or to patch the game to ignore the check or make it always pass. It's akin to the Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands patch and likely will only be useful for that game, with them doing something different in the next. Ubisoft has been doing this for a while and I'm happy to just play their games from the discs now.

Did you turn on Ocarina and try various hook types?

Oh. I assumed that Gecko codes were enabled by default....whoops. I take it I go to the global settings and switch on, huh?
Now, do I place the codes on the HDD or can I load them from the SD card through CFG loader? And as far as hook type, I'm not too familiar with what that is and how many I have to try. What about the private folder with the mods?

Hi, oggzee

I have one wii with abnormal dvd drive.
It takes me a long time to make sure this.

The wii can run HBC apps and wiimc all the time, but can't load game and system channels sometime.
Take off the drive within wii, the situation is the same.
CFG and other usb loader can be load as normal, but can't load game to play.
When loading it halted...

Is there any possible to bypass "the dvdrom check action"
as usb loader (like CFG) can load game normally.

Thanks!!

I have a question are write_playlog and return_to_channel compatible with each other, I haven't tried it.
Will the subsequent games ran after returning to channel will be logged to the play log correctly?

I currently have write_playlog off but is it a good idea to enable it?
and I have set return_to_channel = auto which is working perfectly as expected.

You turn it on in the options for the game alone, by selecting the game and then choosing the Options button (or it might be called Settings, I'm not fully sure). The Hook Type can be chosen on the same screen where you can turn Ocarina on. Just try different ones until it works as different games require different hook types. Once you've found the setting you want, you can save the options so they will be applied every time you start Smash.

This game has been working with USB loader GX 2.2 from the beginning without any problems using the same Cios setup.
No update of USB loader GX was required.
Please look into this.

I have a very serious issue with CFG and I really really need help.

When I start cfg with a nunchuck plugged in it gives me a stack dump. and when I plug it in after CFG is running it causes the cursor to constantly try to jump to a specific location causing a lagy response from it.
Also when I connect my Guitar the cursor works but keeps trying to go to the left (It doesnt do this in the Wii Menu) making it very hard to select a game.

Please Help!

Using CFG v70 and cios249 base 56 d2x v6 and the forwader channel from ModMii. (USBLoader(s)-ahbprot58-SD-USB-v11-IDCL.wad)

EDIT: F%# this c#@!, the nunchuck the I got with the Wii is giving me trouble while the cheap eBay bought nunchuck doesn't. If I can't get this resolved I think i'm going to trash this frigging Wii it's causing me to much grief to be worth the trouble.

I have the same problem with a faike nunchuk and a faike wii remote.
With the original nunchuk and original wii remote no problem with cfg 70.

But this is an original nunchuck, Do you think that this nunchuck that came with my Wii could possibly be fake

It has the nintendo logo on its connector and RVL-004 on it like the other one. It is quite old though.
And what about the guitar. It's definately not fake. and the cursor works perfectly on the Wii Menu. (It's a GH: World Tour Guitar BTW)

EDIT: Ok I'm 100% sure that the nunchuck that does work is fake (The eBay one, it has philips screws on it's connector instead of triwing ones) and the one that doesn't work is original.
Heck Appearently my other Wii Remote is also fake, it works but has many issues like a bad speaker and rumble and wonky pointer but it still works.
EDIT 2: It seems that connecting my original nunchuck when in the Homebrew Channel causes the cursor to lag while the fake one doesn't. I don't know why this is happening. It makes no sense.
EDIT 3: Hmm I think both the Homebrew Channel and CFG use libogc-Wiiuse, I guess there is a bug with this library with certain Nunchucks and guitars.

A couple of questions:

1) How does one have RGB or HQ covers show as default on the game info screen?

2) Is it possible not to show the "console" when loading a game. (the screen that displays how big the game is, what IOS is used, etc.)

3) How does one turn of titles at bottom of screen?

4) Is it possible through skinning to display ONLY the game cover after you select a game, then click it again to start? (no need to go into detail if you don't feel like it, just wanted to know if I should bother even trying)

Thanks!

hey guys i am trying to use a my essentials 1 tb usb drive it sees the games but when i pick one to start it it stays on the black screen . movies play fine from same drive . i partitioned it down the middle then formatted with wbfs manager then i copied games from my sons hd to this one using wbfs manager . any ideas ?

my sons 500 gig hd works fine with games and movies on his wii and the wii i am trying to set this drive up for any ideas

PsyBlade · Sep 9, 2011

2 wiis + 2 drives ?
cross check them

try another cios (as in wan,hermes,d2x)

unlikely to be the cause but forget wbfs partitions
use fat32 instead

I had a similar issue.
My we would see the drive and the Apps on it, like HomeBrew Channel and USB CFG Loader, but it would not see the games.
It turns out that I had cios=222 in the config file. When I removed it it was fine.
