Hacking Configurable USB Loader

[Groomery]

thanks! But the game is patched, it worked with the loader with my other memory stick but not with my new harddrive, i mean to install from disc!!!!

 

[oggzee]

Whenever I try to dump a game from disc to the USB-HD , I get a WBFS error ret-1

QUOTE(Groomery @ Dec 9 2009, 09:44 PM) Hello! i have just bought an Wester Digital my passport essental 320gb. and fast formated the drive, as Fat32 then i made an wbfs partition, and when i install a game at 50% it says WBFS ERROR:Read error (ret= -1)
Press A to eject dvd?
Anyone?

Does any of you two have a modchip?
Can you try adding this option:

install_partitions = only_game

to config.txt and try again?

EDIT: Another question, is it possible that your disc is scratched?

EDIT2:
Note: the read error check has been introduced in v47, all previous
versions including the original loader 1.5 and all other loaders
silently ignore it.
I might change that to a WARNING in the future.

Just a quick compatibility note - I tried using a new PNY Optima 16GB SDHC to run HBC and CFG v49 from with running the games from the fat partition. Sometimes CFG refuses to load (hangs before showing the splash) but mostly it boots up and sees the files on the card however it hangs when trying to play them (just after "[FAT]..." I think). An old 512mb SD card runs the same fine by the way.

Cheers, and keep up the great work.

EDIT: Also just tried a 16GB Sandisk Ultra II which exhibited the same errors as above. Shame really as it would be nice to be able to just have one neat little SD card with HBC, CFG and games on.

Yeah SDHC compatibility is not good, i don't even know if it works with any SDHC card at all?
I only tested it with SD as i don't have any SDHC.

Maybe one thing to try would be merge ios 222 with ios 60 option, if it perhaps has better sdhc compatibility.. but that is a wild guess, maybe it won't help at all...

 

[zinger5]

I'll give that a go. If there's anything you want me to test for you using these 16gb SDHC cards feel free to let me know - any logs or anything which might help improve SDHC compatibility, etc.

every game works to install from disc with GX Loader, but not with this one? Strange!

My 4 GB SD Card isn't working out for me and my 2 GB is, but you already know that SDHC isn't working out too well so I'll just leave it to you to fix it eventually xD

Specifically, I can see my games fine, and I can install games fine, and when I click on a game it plays the intro sound effect from the game fine, but when I try to load the game it hangs when it says it's loading the custom ios 222-mload. I've tried with 223-mload also.

I love this loader and keep up the awesome work!

You sure you have 222 (38 merged 37) installed?

 

[TeconMoon]

Yes I am sure. SDHC is just being very buggy in general with this loader. For example, the loader would work when only one game was installed on the card but not with two.

Ive just released a Cover Manager app for cfg, read post:

I hope they do fix up or look through the codeing with SDHC. I think your loader is the best oggzee and usptactical and i don't want too change too another just cause my SDHC can't work with it compared to the other loaders that are out

 

[demitrius]

Is there a way to possibly delete games from the HDD through CFG, like how DS flashcarts work?

 

[XFlak]

the minus button on the wiimote should do it (if it doesn't work, u have to input a password, to access the password prompt, hold 1)

Because it is ignoring read errors

I will change that back to ignore errors too, just print a warning.

Yes I have a Wiikey v1 installed and yes ... adding that line to config.txt did the trick

Thanks for the hint

As I suspected, the modchip is interfering with the reading of the update partition.
I think it's time i make the install_partition=only_game the default to avoid such problems in the future.

I have a d2key in my wii and don't have that problem.

 

[Wiisel]

d2ckey here also and no problems maybe it depends on chip type

 

[Mr_Q]

What is currently the best revision of Waninkoko to use with this loader?

Is it advisable to update / use rev15? Or is it better to use rev14?
I have searched this forum / with google but could not find a clear answer.
I did see that rev15 needs the anti 002 fix enabled for some games where rev14 does not.

Any advantages/disadvantages?


Thanks a lot for this loader, I recommend it to everyone!

Do you know of any loader that works with SDHC? I just need a loader for a friends SDHC card, and I'm sure he won't care who's fork of 1.5 it is.
