Hacking Compiling WBFS on Mac OS X

[darkten]

FYI...

We've (that being myself and om_nous) got some hot Girl on Girl wbfs Finder action going on on MacOSX

No...you can't "test" it yet; PMing for a request to do this will *seriously irritate me to NO END like you would NOT BELIEVE* and is a BAD IDEA

Something usable will likely be tommorrow afternoon/early evening GMT -5:00.

If you'd like to "be ready" the easiest thing for you to do is install the latest release of MacFUSE (GIYF...look it up).

I'll be posting some screenshots a bit later or in the morning.

Presently, you can plug your drive in, it shows up in the finder, it has a purty drive icon, the drive lists all of your stuff, the file sizes, free space, etc. You know...like the Finder

There is rudimentary extraction going on (you can extract a title to a destination that is summarily ignored and it instead shows up in your home dir

) and I don't know if it will get past "rudimentary".

By the time y'all get yer hands on it, it will also allow for adding and deleting.

Just letting ya know what is going on with regards to the GUI front.

We all know how to use the Finder, right?

EPIC WIN! (good job mate)

FYI...

By writing it in Fuse, will it intrinsically have some caching built in? If not, what are the chances of it being added?

error reading disc: Operation not supported by device

What could be the problem here?

Good deal! Great job!

No. (Mac)FUSE is a userspace filesystem wrapper, and as such, won't be helping you with your particular issue...tho upon further testing I'm not finding it to be a problem speedwise.

Also, due to the quirkiness of wbfs proper, we're taking a sort of hybrid approach to 1. protect/preserve data 2. protect my sanity.

Since MacFUSE *is* a user space implementation and wraps the fuse driver as an app, well, this means all of the "problematic" things can be moved to the "app proper".

To this end, I've implemented the filesystem as READ ONLY to the Finder...but a simple menu is in the Menubar for extracting and adding files.

Everyone loves pictures; here are some screenshots before I take a nap

WOW, absolutely fantastic! I love to icon artwork.

Just so I'm clear....will this enable dragging and dropping ISO's to and from the WBFS HDD? Also does it let you edit the filenames so "SPORTS PACK for REVOLUTION" can be renamed Wii Sports.wbfsdvd

 

[darkten]

Hooboy. I see why these things turn ugly, fast

WOW, absolutely fantastic! I love to icon artwork.

Thank you.

No. Read what I typed above about Read-Only Finder Access. Dragging from could be implemented but it wouldn't do what you want it to

No. WBFS doesn't support this.

Awesome! Icons/App look great. Windows eat your heart out!

*bump*
Awsome news it would be great as Macfuse plugin

!
But I guess there is nothing u can do 'bout the Cache thing, can you?

 

[MertenNor]

what do I need to do ?

I have rebooted after installing the MacFUSE "app" but still dosent show op

Currently you must continue to use the command line binary. The MacFUSE wrapper is coming darkten's early post was explaining what you can do to 'get ready'.

 

[Dookieman]

Bump!

this is what i put into terminal /usrs/Bin/wbfs -p /dev/disk1s1 init

Your process should go something like this:

CODE# cd /Desktop (wherever your wbfs binary is located)
# ./wbfs -p /dev/disk1s1 init
# ./wbfs -p /dev/disk1s1 add /path/to/iso
# ./wbfs -p /dev/disk1s1 ls

- omi

I tried it wbfs tool and the iso is named game iso also on my desktop it says it has been modified tho

I get the following message when I use the precompiled program:
dyld: lazy symbol binding failed: Symbol not found: _getopt$UNIX2003
Referenced from: /Users/psyck0/Desktop/wbfs

dyld: Symbol not found: _getopt$UNIX2003

What does it mean?

 

[tps2d]

What version of OS X are you on? PPC or Intel?

 

[psyck0]

Intel.

 

[tps2d]

Ok.. But what version?

Do you have XCode installed? I can't imagine why it'd be required, but it might be.

Also, did you do a custom install of OS X? Did you happen to not install the "BSD Subsystem"?
