Good for you 1Mofo. Nice to hear everything is peachy on your end. Me using Upper Case were not replies, trying to state a case. Do you have any helpful or constructive information? I'm all eyes & read how to fix the issue I posted.
Hello.Good for you 1Mofo. Nice to hear everything is peachy on your end. Me using Upper Case were not replies, trying to state a case. Do you have any helpful or constructive information? I'm all eyes & read how to fix the issue I posted.
I have a question/requests for the banners (.bnr) files. You can configure the sound of the banner to "Sound+Silence" or you can make it bucle constantly... I like the Sound+Silence as it works with my original games but the problem is that some of the banners needs to be in constantly bucle to sound well... Would be possible to save special configuration for some banners?
And talking about banners, of all games I have tested, they always work fine, but I found one game "Pangya! Golf with Style" (PAL version) that shows the first part of the banner bad... in this video you can see how it should be:
But for me it shows the white balls already from the begining and a green square where the hole will be... I can't explain it very well but if you can test this game and compare the banner with the one of the video you will see.
That would be really awesome. Some banners looks bad without the loop and some looks bad repeating all the time, so saving special configuration for the banners that needs it would be really great.no I didn't look into it.
I didn't code the banner reader, so I don't know the format or how it works.
making a per-game setting could be done I guess.
That sounds very good. I don't change options very often and sometimes I enter in the options menu by error and then I noticed how everything stops for a moment while the options file is being wrote... With that feature this we could prevent unnecesary configuration writes.Maybe I can just keep track of few settings, not all of them, like favorite/layout/game type, and force a "save" button for the main settings too.
unfortunately, it seems not possible.@Cyan Think that for the next update the linking for downloading cheats could be updated to use https?
I got The Conduit 2 after seeing there was a cheat that fixed a game crash, and I noticed the error within the GUI referenced the link using http, which is not used by GeckoCodes anymore.
the USB Port 1 should also work with IOS58.@itchyd Make sure you put the USB on Port 0, not Port 1.
did you reset the settings?With the latest GX 1272, "Game Boot Time" goes from 3 seconds to 16 seconds on every game i have tried. This is my issue with the latest 1272 GX update. My original post was to see if anyone else was having the same issue with the latest GX update. Obviously, it is not a problem for others, so i'll happily keep using 1271.
Hello.Thank You for the reply @alexander1970. I have CFG & WFL also installed, but this is definitely an issue with USB GX 1272 for me. I have no problem using 1271, it does everything I need. I've tested all 3 loaders several times over the last 10+ years. Conclusion, they are all Great! CFG is what i used when i first got into the scene & it is straight & narrow still to this day. WiiFlow(Lite) was the loader i despised. Although it looked good, it really had (still does) have a learning curve of how to use the loader to it's full potential. USB GX has always been the Best loader IMO for playing games. For me though, over the past 1-2 years WFL has rivaled GX and exceeded. I use on all 3 of my Wii's the same settings with latest loader versions. Done recently:
Load Up Time:
CFG = 28-32 seconds
GX = 35-38 seconds
WFL = 14-17 seconds
Game Boot Time:
CFG = 3-4 seconds
GX = 2-4 seconds
WFL = 2-4 seconds
With the latest GX 1272, "Game Boot Time" goes from 3 seconds to 16 seconds on every game i have tried. This is my issue with the latest 1272 GX update. My original post was to see if anyone else was having the same issue with the latest GX update. Obviously, it is not a problem for others, so i'll happily keep using 1271.

That's a shame, but thanks for the reply and insight.unfortunately, it seems not possible.
Blackb0x did the test and re-added SSL support, but it fails with geckocodes website.
it works with other website (like github), but not all sites. it looks like it has something to do with a specific security version (TLS, etc.) not compatible with IOS modules.
The only half-good solution is to use web archive, as it's still on http. it might not be updated regularly, but Wii is old enough to have most codes archived.
We can bytpass the bitmitigate without problem (our test is successful, it's just a simple hardcoded cookie in the loader), but then it didn't pass the SSL requirements.That's a shame, but thanks for the reply and insight.
It might be because of the bitmitigate protection, but there is nothing that can be done about that.
autoboot can be achieved by different methods.I would like some refresher please, I forgot how I setted up my Wii to boot USB Loader GX (it booted automatically after reset, no need to go to the home menu).
I have rev1268, and want to update, but after looking at my SD card, it seems I don't use the boot.dol. How do I update in this case?
Thanks a bunch , now I remember having installed the .dol with priiloader. So I get the channel booter from the same SourceForge right?autoboot can be achieved by different methods.
the most used is Priiloader.
Priiloader allows you to "install" a dol into the console's memory to boot automatically instead of system menu.
this is not the best method ! it works only if you have cIOS by default in the loader's settings. if you use IOS58, it won't work.
you don't need the dol on the SD, but you should have the apps/usbloader_gx/ folder anyway because it's where all the settings are stored.
if you want to autoboot correctly using priiloader, you need 3 things :
- the boot.dol on the SD
- the forwarder channel (to grant AHB access to the loader with IOS58)
- a channel booter for priiloader (found on sourceforge)
advantage is it's easy to update the loader : replace the dol on SD !
a lot of people requested IOS58 as default IOS because they have issues with HDD detection.
lot of users recommend to use wiiflow instead because of that issue and they don't understand they can just set 58 manually.
once I finally force IOS to 58 by default in 1272, you say 249 is better
I don't know what to do anymore haha
anyway, I'm glad you fixed your issue
