    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    Oggzee's right - if it's an external 3.5" drive without it's own power supply then sometimes the wii won't give it enough power. Otherwise if it happens to be a Seagate/Maxtor drive (I think it was a particular Freeagent model but I can't remember now), a number of them had a similar "clicking"...

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    Thanks Oggzee. That's actually the best response I've seen to these questions. (If you'd said that earlier it may have saved about 60 people posting similar questions ) Personally I like the new logo better than the original one - but that's just my opinion.

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    Just playing Devil's Advocate here, but could you have it as an option passed via the forwarder like the way it's used with Narolez' hybrid for 249/222?

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    I never got around to testing it with sd, but for usb works okay. The paths I had for both though are: SD:/apps/usbloader_cfg/boot.dol SD:/apps/usbloader/boot.dol USB:/apps/usbloader/boot.dol USB:/apps/usbloader_cfg/boot.dol I'm personally using USB:/apps/usbloader/boot.dol Note it may...

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    I've got a version which I hacked up based on the GX forwarder which just has a black screen and goes straight to the cfg usb loader libraries. If you want it, let me know and I'll post it somewhere... Unfortunately I had a hard drive crash and lost my source, but happy to post just the .dol...

    I think USB Loader GX can do it...but haven't used it in a while.

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    Hi Oggzee - just finished converting all my games to fat32 and all are working brilliantly. On a completely off-topic request, is there a way to get the banner music to play if simple = 1? I love this feature but I don't really want my kids being able to muck around with the game options...

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    A lot of the time you can fix this problem by changing the video settings - try changing it from System Default to Game Default (or Vice Versa). Failing that, try one of the "Force PAL" or "Force NTSC" options.

    Narolez, This works perfectly and allows me to run straight from Preloader - even when I first power-on with the wii with my slow-to-start hard drive. Thanks heaps.

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    I'm also hoping Narolez will send through an updated version but I'm sure he'll get around to it when he gets the time - we tend to forget that these guys also have a life and can't always work on wii stuff. In the interim, I'm using USBLoader GX's forwarder - you can specify the location where...

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    I'm not sure about BootMii, but I'm using Preloader and it has an option to boot from a file instead of to the System Menu. If Bootmii has a similar option, you can use Narolez's forwarder (you'll find it on page 1). You can then install this dol file into BootMii (if it allows this). This...

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    I have about 150 games with about 30 favourites at the moment. I also tried making the first and last games in the list (Zack & Wiki, and Alien Syndrome) favourites as well just in case there was something screwy it skipping covers but that didn't make any difference. Let me know if you want...

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    Hi there - have just been testing this latest release and have noticed one minor issue - I was wondering if you could replicate it. When I am using coverflow and am just viewing favourites, the covers are not displayed when I switch between the first game, and move left to view the last game in...

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    Hi Speighty, Are you using the usb loader's boot.dol directly from preloader? If so, I'd suggest using Narolez' forwarder instead and place the usbloader's boot.dol in one of the folders on either your sd card or usb partition. You may still get a timeout when you first start it up (it will...

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    Just my two cents worth - Out of the 150 or so that I've tried, only Red Steel (PAL) and Crash Bandicoot Mind Over Mutant (PAL) are the only games I have found so far that I've needed to change this setting for. I found that I've run some NTSC ones in the past on my PAL Wii and they haven't...

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    That's a great suggestion Dr. Clipper. I had problems with my PAL Red Steel using altdol method (black screen at the aquarium scene and static audio which I know others have also had), and changing the vid options from Game Default to System Default fixed it up beautifully

    Hacking Configurable USB Loader

    This would give most hard drives time to power up and for the wii to read the fat partition first without impacting startup times for sd card users or people starting the forwarder with a hard drive already powered up (e.g. from channel)..........Thanks heaps!
