I have fledge's pack extracted in Plugins folder.
When no pack is used the filter selection screen is empty.
The best way to decrease the # of bugs is to keep old buttons when no source ini is used.
Maybe adding "Filter_PNG_Mode=yes/no" in wiiflow.ini might be a better option.
some of the images are stretched a little just need to edit them in PS. I've got the image displaying down just need to fix it so it does the right thing when you click on them. But running short on time today with the kids out of school early. just to give a little heads up - the console images will be in wiiflow/source_menu folder along with the source_menu.ini which will tell wiiflow what image to use for each button. For those of you that like to make or edit themes you should be able to override the default images in the source_menu folder.
You sneaky bastard! You took my idea and ran with it. j/k But it is nice to know that in some way I helped to jump start the process and make a positive impact in wiiflow. It makes me all warm and fuzzeh. Final product looks good, I like that you only need one set of images instead of doing it for each theme. The only thing that might make it better is to add an all plugins button, and select multiple systems.
Btw, Does anyone have a full set of icons for each system that wiiflow now supports? A few different styles to choose from might be nice, like all that are artistically rendered (cartoon), actual images,or isometric views of each system, perhaps with controllers attached, which might be cool for when the cursor hovers over the button, or when they're selected. Also, is there any way to define how many buttons are on each page, or move them from one page to another?
Keep up the good work, guys! Wiiflow is quickly becoming a video gaming masterpiece!
@Fix94- Is there any way you could get it to autoswitch which device the selected content is on? I got most of my roms on SD, but all my videos and movies are on HDD. Maybe edit the plugin inis "rompath=USB1:movies"
Mastershoes: Love all your pics! Do all of those plugins work/load the games? To split my game boy roms should I just separate gb/gbc/gba each into a folder within vbagx/roms and then make three inis with the same info except for the rom path in each?
Thanks man! Yes they are all functional, except for atari 2600 & atari 7800, which are just mockups (they're both setup, so if they happen to get released, all I have to do is swap out the .dol's..- roms and covers are already setup and cached.) Once I get these where I'm happy with them, I'll post a link if anyone's interested. And yes, if you want to split up your gb/gbc/gba, you need a seperate .dol and .ini for each. here's how my .ini's look.
I just have a single dol for all my splits and multiple inis, and they seem to work just fine. :/
Also, I have a complaint about http://www.gametdb.com/. Some of the full covers don't have a link to view the full size image. (Sonic and sega all stars racing and Samurai warriors 3 being among them.)
@[member='drakorex'] - thanks and yes you did help jump start the idea. there should be an all plugins option. read the text file that came in the folder.
@[member='mastershoes'] - i'll look into adding a third page - shouldn't be too hard. hey can we use your images? I like the way you included the logo under the console.
@[member='secamfr'] and [member='abdallahterro'] - apparently you guys liked the text buttons better. I'll see what i can do but don't count on it. And maybe I should have wiiflow display a message or do something if the source_menu folder and ini are missing.
to all the image makers - love it! that's what i was hoping you would do since i don't have the time to make them all myself.
@[member='fix94'] - thanks for the mplayerce plugin - can't wait to try it
FIX94,can you PLEASE include an option to force interlaced mode for PAL VC games on emu nand?
As you already may know,there are a lot of PAL VC games that display a black screen through component cables.Can you please consider it?
Hey, there is a option for force interlaced already, the problem is that the virtual console games use some completely different way of sending the signal to that tv, thats the problem.
@Fix94- Is there any way you could get it to autoswitch which device the selected content is on? I got most of my roms on SD, but all my videos and movies are on HDD. Maybe edit the plugin inis "rompath=USB1:movies"
Thanks for your response,Fix!
So,is it possible to solve the issue?Are you have any ideas for this particular problem?I do not know even if this is solvable...
@FIX94 - I tested out mplayer, I love it! It launches directly into the movie and returns to coverflow when the movie is over. The controls are a bit of a pain though. I went with wiimc because it was easier to figure out. Wish I could get how to change the picture size on the fly. But I think you just might have somethin' there

yep go to spiffy.com..they have covers for most if not all movies.
@fix94 this is cool...thanks for all the hard work your putting in to wiiflow. an all the other developers, working hard. great job guys
could i possibly get the mplayer plug in to play with.
This might have been mentioned before but what's the current setup to make the plugin source page show all the pngs? do we like still need the old pack? I updated to 426 but still having wiiflow exit to SM when I try to load the source page.
Thanks for the updates
@fledge68 - Great work on this Icon setup man!! I had a bunch of icon's from my forwarders already made, gonna do some more adjusting when i get home from the weekend! Thanks man, looking great! My only question is... Will support come for a 3rd page? I could use a few more icons!
Do share.
@[member='fledge68'] and [member='fix94'] Also, I second the need for a third page. Would it be hard to make it just add and remove pages as needed?
While we're at it, it would be nice to have a shorcut to the plugin selection screen, possibly pressing the (+) botton on the favorites icon or the (-) on the selection button
Also, I have a complaint about http://www.gametdb.com/. Some of the full covers don't have a link to view the full size image. (Sonic and sega all stars racing and Samurai warriors 3 being among them.)
I think only the HD full covers have a link above the thumbnail. If it doesn't have a link it just has a full cover (not an HD full cover) and that's the actual size of the image.

Sure: http://www.mediafire...j51sx671orotep9
You'll also need a newer wiiflow rev, the best is the latest r426 (from open-wiiflow-mod, yes we reached the version number of the normal wiiflow google code in such a short time ), the r348 on the downloads page doesnt support it.
edit: heres r426: http://www.mediafire.com/?0xxt2bydpa2e8ee
Everyone else can test it too ofc
I put a new episode of Pokemon Best Wishes on for the kids, and the player runs great. The subtitles even showed up, most impressive. I had to make sure it was an SD video. The HD counterpart was very blury possibly due to the wiis capabities and also due to my ancient tv. Thanks Fix!!
I just tried r426.Ufortunately,every try to load a game from emu nand gives me a code dump or a black screen.Before that,I was using r 348 and everything was running fine.Can I assume that there is a bug in emu nand mode?
all i can say is hell yeah.. an i to would like to know were to put covers? in with the regular covers or should i make a separate folder in the plug ins an have the ini point to it,
all my movie collection works great. (in some cases showing better then in wiimc.)

I 3RD that I tried placing covers in wiiflow\boxcovers,mplayerce,wiiflow/movies & nothing.......do these need extensions like roms i.e 007-Goldeneye.avi.png???

Yep yep! Put the covers wherever you want.as long as you point the ini there too.
The png's must have the full file name like the ROM covers do.
I.e terminator.avi will have the cover terminator.avi.png
