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.

within the loader press 1 twice and youll see press left or right to choose which one you want as default and press 2 to save then B twice to get back to the game list/coverflow

Another thing: Any way to get the image output folder(s) of this loader synced with a different loader --- That being USB Loader GX. I ask/say this because a few (about 5+ out of around 80 of the titles on my USB drive) get errors when I try to get a few of the images for them (disc, flat, 3d, 2d . . .) And yet GX has probably 98 - 100% of the images it needs.

It is possible to configure Configurable USB Loader, USB Loader GX, CoverFloader 1.2a and the forthcoming WiiFlow 1.1 so that they all share the same covers folders.

In Configurable you have to set the file config.txt, in GX the file GXGlobal.cfg, in CoverFloader the file wiicoverflow.xml, and in WiiFlow the file wiiflow.ini

Pay attention that CoverFloader 1.2a is not yet able to use fullcoversHQ 1024x680.

See below for an example...

CODE
Configurable USB Loader - config.txt file:
covers_path_2d = sd:/images/2d
covers_path_3d = sd:/images/3d
covers_path_disc = sd:/images/disc
covers_path_full = sd:/images/full

USB Loader GX - GXGlobal.cfg file:
cover_path = sd:/images/3d/
cover2d_path = sd:/images/2d/
disc_path = sd:/images/disc/

CoverFloader 1.2a - wiicoverflow.xml file:
dir_3dcovers="sd:/images/full"
dir_covers="sd:/images/2d"
dir_disks="sd:/images/disc"

WiiFlow 1.1 - wiiflow.ini file:
dir_box_covers=sd:/images/full
dir_flat_covers=sd:/images/2d

You mean this:

Code:
# USBLoader config
# lines starting with # are comments
# see README-CFG.txt for help on options

# theme
theme = BlueMatrix

# gui
gui = start
gui_transition = fade
gui_style = flow
gui_rows = 2

# device
device = usb

That's the only config.txt file on my SD card and that's the complete file.

Yes, this is the config file of Configurable... you may have it in sd:/usb-loader/ folder or in sd:/apps/usbloader_gx/ folder.

Is it possible to have the banner sounds play whilst the loader is in simple mode?
Set:
CODEsimple=1
confirm_start=1

As long as the confirm_start option comes after simple, it will give you all the other simple options, but still give you the banner sounds.

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?

14 introduced a new glitch, where double layer games don't really work. I believe I saw wiipower once say that it doesn't read the last sector of the first layer, or something like that. If/when there's a new cios, it should be fixed. So far that's pretty much the biggest glitch of 14.

Fixed.

In my opinion, the reset bug in 13 is worse than the dual layer bug in 14. The other alternative is to go back to 14 and use IOS222 for the dual layer games.

What does simple=1 does.
I mean I guess it puts you in simple mode, but what is simple mode?

I tried it and didn't see any difference and didn't get the banners.

They are not that important to me, but I wanted to know more about the option and didn't see it explained in the explanation of configuration options.

Simple actually has two versions, one in theme.txt, the other in config.txt. They are described under "I don't want some of the menu information to display, such as the header or footer." and "I want to make the Loader child proof." respectively.

In theme.txt, it disables the footer and the disk drive info on the console screen (list of games).
In config.txt, it disbles the ability to install games, remove games, reach the options screen and format the drive and it also removes the need to confirm start.

I.e.:
"simple = 1" in theme.txt is equivalent to:
hide_hddinfo = 1
hide_footer = 1

and in config.txt it is equivalent to:
confirm_start = 0
disable_remove = 1
disable_install = 1
disable_options = 1
disable_format = 1

You can separately undo any of the actions the simple option does by listing the other option again afterwards.

E:\usb-loader is where it's located . . . So if I wanted this app & GX to share the same images?

Place in the file "config.txt" contained in the folder "usb-loader" the following options:
covers_path_2d = sd:/images/2d
covers_path_3d = sd:/images/3d
covers_path_disc = sd:/images/disc
covers_path_full = sd:/images/full

Change in the file "GXGlobal.cfg" contained in the folder "config" the cover path variables as follows:
cover_path = sd:/images/3d/
cover2d_path = sd:/images/2d/
disc_path = sd:/images/disc/

Of course, if you have for your cover folders different names, use the names you have...

hi ogzee
just little bug with the new HBC (title JODI)
Usbloader cfg Freeze when press home with option selected home = exit


This is loading it from the HBC? I've been using it with a forwarder channel for some time. I'll have to get into the new HBC later and test it.

EDIT: Tested, and it exits fine from the latest v1.05 of the HBC. You must have something else wrong.

You aren't kidding. While it wouldn't be a big deal to many people, I couldn't stand rebooting the Wii in between each game.

I've been trying to download Narolez' Universal Forwarder channel... However, I keep getting a 403 error when I click the download link. Does anyone have a mirror for me to download from?
