Anyone able to help me get apps to return to USBLGX instead of the HBC? I'm pretty savvy with USBLGX stuff by now, but I have had a hell of a time getting answers on this one.
Basically, I have various apps in my apps folder on my SD card, and I like to boot them with various installed forwarder wads within USBLGX. I have WiiXplorer, WiiMC, VBA-GX, Not64, Wii64, WiiSX-RX...
VBA-GX and WiiMC go back to USBLGX, but I think that's only because I have them set to return to Wii Menu in their own settings, and I have my Priiloader set so that "Return to Wii Menu" = Autoboot USBLGX. So that's awesome.
Is there anyway way to get apps that don't have their own "Return to" setting to do that? Is there any way to control where they send you?
I'm running USBLGX rev 1271.
The "Return to" setting in the USBLGX options menu seems to have no effect.
Whether the forwarder wads are installed to NAND or emuNAND has no effect.
The apps return to HBC whether I use forwarders or just boot them within HBC.
My main goal is to have a bunch of single-ROM loaders so that each N64 & PS1 game shows up in the USBLGX games list and autoboots and finally returns to USBLGX when the player exits.
I have heard ModMii can make forwarders that read meta.xmls, but I don't know if that's relevant. I feel like I could puzzle this all out myself if I just understood how the "Return to" flag is set; for instance, how is that data it able to be retained while playing a Wii game and called upon exiting? Does using a forwarder into a boot.dol overwrite that setting so that USBLGX's "Return to" is useless for forwarders?
OK thanks for the help folks! Cheers!
EDIT: I just tried the latest USBLGX (rev 1272) and I don't think that's the solution. I have a really fragile setup of settings with rev1271 across my Wii and some friends' Wiis; I'm afraid to mess it up by updating. Especially because rev1272 has caused new errors both times I tried it. (First it was throwing an exception on booting, I think when I had a classic controller plugged in. This time, my forwarders weren't working.)
Anyway, all I really need is apps that (1) Return to Wii Menu, and (2) Don't override Priiloader. Is there some way I can edit that feature into Wii64/Not64/WiiSXRX, since they seem to only do HBC exits?
EDIT 2: Booting Not64 directly (no forwarder) within USBLGX’s app menu made it return to USBLGX when I exited. Which is cool, but I really don’t want my games to be in there — I want them to be on the games list. This suggests to me that the forwarder is interfering with the system’s ability to “remember” that I came from USBLGX. Hm.
Think I’ll try making Not64’s boot.dol into a wad and see if that works. I’ll report back in a day or two to tell how that went. Low expectations.
