Hacking Configurable USB Loader

[Tubbernaut]

Well, I'm nailing Ghostbusters, GH5 and the Conduit down to either NTSC or bad rips.

I'ma just suck it all up and try again in the near future. I guess it teaches me a lesson about importing bloody NTSC games thinking the timeframe and cost is faster and cheaper >.<

I think I'll just stick to PAL releases and just buy locally. I mean, I've waited so bloody long for Ghostbusters I think I can wait another 2 months

The freezing... Thats just bloody random - but hopefully (if its a bug) it'll be fixed with time. If not, my frustration and raged can be cured with a sweeeeeeeet cigarette. Which is much needed right now.

hi how come the disc covers on wiiflow look much better?

p.s is wiiflow anygood?

Look much better in what way?

Yes, WiiFlow is very good. Try it.

Maybe he's talking about HQ covers? These are possible to download in CFG as well, but if you are running it off of an SD card (like me) it'll make CFG's boxart reading awfully slow.

how do i download the HQ covers?

- In a similar fashion to Gamma and NeoGamma. Is there a way to run a NTSC iso on a PAL console straight off the mark?

Yes. Add this to your config.txt:

video = pal

zektor, I noticed in the main thread that it seems you updated to 4.2 for testing purposes. Can you, or anybody else, please confirm that Cfg works if you previously installed the forwarder or hybrid before updating and use "ios=250" in config.txt? I assume all the other loaders would require updates before they work, but it's nice to know that Cfg might actually survive by default on 4.2

.

- When using Configurable USB Loader, how many times have you guys gone to load a game and have the entire thing freeze up at "loading game. Please wait"?

I just want to check one thing... Is the freezing perhaps every time you try to play two games in the loader after one another? If so, go update your IOS249 to rev14 and you'll eliminate your freezing problem.

 

[Tubbernaut]

Well, every time I quit one game from the loader using the home button I have to go back through HBC to load it up again.
I'm assuming that counts, because yeah - thats my problem to a t.

I'll update to rev14 when I get home tonight. Thanks a bunch guys, super appreciate it XD

im on rev14 now and thats still an issue tubbernaut

More banner sound fixes ... again

This fixes banner sound for the 3 games pepxl found problematic: FFCC, TT, WWOS note: the banner from FFCC seems corrupted, not sure if the problem is in wiiscrubber or in the image, anyway at least now the loader will not crash anymore on a corrupted banner.

And let me know if there are any other games whose banner sound doesn't play correctly.

CFG works fine on v4.2U, providing you take these steps:

1. Run DOP-IOS v8 (latest) and install IOS56, IOS57 and IOS70 (trucha IOS70)
2. Run NUSD and download the system menu for your region (I am USA, so 481 for me). Pack it into a wad.
3. Run wwpacker and unpack the system menu wad you downloaded.
4. Run any PC hex editor and follow the directions here:

5. Repack the modified system menu wad and install with wad manager.

Bingo! Done, everything works.....except bannerbomb of course

Other than that, HBC survives, bootmii, all of your installed cIOSes..etc. Because of course you never touch them when you update yourself. So, there you have it. v4.2U hacked

Big League Sports Summer, Dokapon Kingdom, Need For Speed Carbon, Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Double Agent, Wacky World Of Sports, World Championship Sports Summer are the games that have no banner sounds for me

Has Configurable USB Loader been updated to display HQ covers or does it still resize/down sample HQ covers internally?

Also would updating current library with this ammendment to config.txt require re-download of all covers? download covers missing???

 

[Dr. Clipper]

No, although I think the HQ covers look a tad sharper than the non-HQ ones. Possibly due to the covers only being resampled once rather than twice.

QUOTEAlso would updating current library with this ammendment to config.txt require re-download of all covers? download covers missing???

Yes, you need to download all the covers to replace the normal fulls with HQ fulls. Perhaps set "download_all_styles=0" or just delete the contents of your full folder and usee the download missing option to make it simpler.

@oggzee: Would it help you to get the extracted sound files from these games as well?

 

[yobemal]

I can't get the MP3 dol thing to work from MPT.. when i choose the MP3 dol it says "insert metroid trilogy disc" or something...

Can you extract opening.bnr from these games and send them to me (upload them somewhere)
Also, if you can check that these games do have banner sound it would be helpful - some games don't.
You can verify that by either trying it with wiiflow, checking in system menu if you have an original dvd or with neogamma rebooter if you have a burned dvd.

QUOTE(zektor @ Sep 30 2009, 08:13 AM) @oggzee: Would it help you to get the extracted sound files from these games as well?

I need opening.bnr for all games where the banner sound doesn't work, see above.

 

[The-Magician]

Wacky World Of Sports, World Championship Sports Summer I also had no sound on but after upgrading to 44b6 they have sound.

 

[Wii Warrior]

Is it possible to have the banner sounds play whilst the loader is in simple mode?

 

[Nurio]

I'll of course try to install rev13a. But where can I get it? Sorry, I don't really know where to look. And rev13a of what exactly do I need? Of IOS249?

You can download 13a here: < http://wiihack.tk/downloads.php?do=file&am...07&act=down >

Downloaded and installed 13a and it worked! I can finally play the subspace movies again! Thanks a lot!
So, what's the difference between rev 13a and 14?

Anyway to delete the themes for this loader? I only want one and that's the seventh choose (by default I think). The nature theme I believe it is.

Anyway to delete the themes for this loader? I only want one and that's the seventh choose (by default I think). The nature theme I believe it is.

Just go into the themes folder on your SD card or USB partition and remove the ones you don't want.
You could also set the theme in your Config.txt either manually or by using the Configurator tool.

Check out th every first post in the thread for more details.
