Hacking Cojiro's WBFS GUI Wrapper v0.3

[cojiro]

I suppose that I can take a few of the requests. If you post here I will incorporate them in. I'll try to add as much functions as you want! Also I am not sure about which is the official version to use rename, if you can find for me I would appreciate it!
thanks

OK, cool!

Here's my first and only request

Please make the wrapper 'remember' the last partition used. You could leave a hidden config file in the user's $HOME.

Shouldn't be too much of a problem to implement I guess.

Ow, and I think I stumbled on a 'bug' when cancelling/closing the browse window.
Dunno if this specific to my Linux Distro, openSuSE 11.1 KDE4 Desktop

I get this:

Ok, maybe one more request..

To be able to queue a bunch of iso's that would be automatically copied to the partition would be so great to have as well.

Copy the full game, so no cutting/deleting of unused Files of the game would be very nice..

I was thinking here...
If I decide to change my external HD, how can I transfer all my games from my actual HD to the new one ?
Do I have to export all games first and then import on the new or there is a better method ?

Today at work I had to get a win WBFS manager that I think thar this could have.
Simply put two lists, side by side (like filezilla). on the left, the games on your HD folder, and the right the games on the WBFS partition. From there, you may add all listed, extract/delete/rename all listed, etc.... very simple...

which version of WBFS allows this. What is the best, newest version. Once I get this, I'll start work on all of the requests.

Hello,

This question is more related to wbfs than the wrapper. If it is not the right place, I apologize...

I have a 250Gb HD with 2 partitions, one FAT32 for MPlayer and another with wbfs.
There's a possibility to eliminate the fat32 partition of it to put the HD with only 1 partition WBFS.

Is there a way to resize the WBFS partition without loosing all the games I have on it ?
Is there a way to backup All the games I have, or duplicate it on another HD, without having to make an extract of all games to a partition and then ADD to another ???

When I try to extract a game, the counter starts from about 5-20% and always stop on 49,80%. How do I know the game is correctly extracted from the HD ??? Is there a fix to it ?

Thanks....

Hi cojiro,

Did you give up on your WBFS GUI Wrapper? Can we expect any update soon?

Just asking, not pressuring or demanding anything. Just wondering if your still going to fancy things up

If not, that's ok too ofcourse! It's already usable as it is.

Cheers!

Yeah, I hope that you keep working on this as it is the best WBFS manager for Linux (and only GUI one that I know of)

 

[elsneakums]

How do you run as root? i think this is the only thing im doing wrong (only had linux for a week!)

 

[skedone]

in terminal mate type sudo drag the icon of wbfs wrapper into same window, press return, enter password and all should be good mate

or right click it and see if you have the option to run as root (not all linux distros do)
