Configurable USB Loader

Whatever IOS the game uses, get the latest revision of that and install it unpatched. If that doesn't solve the problem, i don't know.

 

Oggzee,

Is it possible you also check for another variable in the direct_start_arg buffer?
Currently you check for "#GAMEID-P". Could you add a device parameter so that the resulting direct_start_arg template be "#GAMEID-P-D", P being partition and D being device... Currently I see device is set to USB by default.

This could help people that have problems launching NetFlix from their sd card.

CODEÂÂÂÂif (direct_start_arg) {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂchar *t = direct_start_arg;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ// game id
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂmemcpy(CFG.launch_discid, t, 6);
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂt += 6;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂif (t[0] == '-') {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂint part_num = t[1] - '0';
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ//CFG.current_partition = t[1] - 48;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ//CFG.current_partition &= 3;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂif (part_num < 4) {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂsprintf(CFG.partition, "WBFS%d", part_num + 1);
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ} else {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂsprintf(CFG.partition, "FAT%d", part_num - 4 + 1);
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ}
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ}
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ// setup cfg for auto-start
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂCFG.direct_launch = 1;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂCFG_Default_Theme();
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂCFG.device = CFG_DEV_USB;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ*CFG.background = 0;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ*CFG.w_background = 0;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂCFG.covers = 0;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂCFG.gui = 0;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂCFG.music = 0;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂCFG.confirm_start = 0;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ//CFG.debug = 0;
ÂÂÂÂ}

Also as I see, passing partition as NTFS is not possible, maybe you can incorporate hexadecimal into business? An example code here..

CODEint ci(char val)
{
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂif (val>='0' && val='A' && val='a' && val=4) && (part_num

 

Well I was not talking about argc / argv style arguments I know they can be passed that way. I was talking about direct start arguments. Anyway, forget it if you don't have any time, hopefully I can tweak a nand loader to pass arguments to a loaded dol or extend a separate loader from an existing one that supports ntfs/fat.

 

The files are just text files with a very easy to understand format. Take a look at the existing ones and you should be able to figure them out. The original one from WiiPower even includes some nice comments to make it clear. Take a look at the following. You won't need to use the subentries values, so leave them 0, and the default value of the parameters should be 1.

and wad2iso wo make the image.
srry for the off topic

 

What part of the game requires alt-dol? I see it has a couple but I just started playing the campaign without any selected..

 

Yeah, sorry, I actually knew that already, but you don't get the nice names that Disc+ gives, which is why I brought it up.

 

Hello,

I have a wiikey 2, pal 4.1E, hermes 222, CIOSCorp & cios 19 installed
The game gave me the same problem.
I had to install a fresh version of the ios 38, 53 & 55 without any patching
Now the game launch perfectly from a fat drive using configurable usbloader

I'm on v53, and I discovered that I can't play my Rock Band 2 DLC. (It's all legit DLC, by the way.) It works fine if I use the disc, but if I use CFG I get an error that the content is invalid/expired or something... Do I need to be on a version of CFG with the -222 after it for it to work? That's what I had at first, and I'm pretty sure it worked. I don't think I've tried RB since I switched to v53 awhile ago. I don't mind updating the version again, but I just want to be sure I get the right one, and hopefully not break something else in the process...

 

Thanks for taking the time to reply, you inspired me to sit here testing every option going.

Turns out it's setting video patch to all that does it.

I enabled it so every game runs 480p and I guess something has changed in the newer releases

 

The actual error is "Limelight is out of date and cannot be restored to Wii system memory. Redownload Limelight for which the license has been previously purchased."

If this is a known issue, I apologize. I've seen previous discussion about instruments and customs, but I thought purchased DLC should work.

 

Help.
I have searched and found a few people have this problem but what is the solution. I have a couple of games. (Raving Rabbit Series) that no longer load from my USB drive. They go through the startup with the safety strap and another logo screen and then either hang or go to a black screen. I thought this was caused from the last update. I was on Rev 19 & cfg version 56.

I then went back to Rev 14 & Cfg version 54 and get the same problem. Have other people had this same problem where games start to load and then hang or go to a black screen?
Whats the solution???

Thanks.

 

just to let you know, the beware of sharks message conflicts with wiimote sync...

when direct loading of cfg via priloader r77+forwarder the wiimote wont sync

pressing reset during boot, going into sysmenu (priiloader) and load manually cfg solves this anoying joke

 

Uh, are you sure that's the problem? Have you tried going back to loading with Priiloader and seeing if the Wiimote disconnects again? Can you confirm that if you change your Wii's date that it doesn't happen?

I ask as there is no reason I can see why the Wiimote won't sync. The image is displayed in exactly the same way as the background image. It sounds much more like your Wiimote is only on temporary sync to the console rather than permanent. Go to the Wii Menu and push the sync button on both the console and the Wiimote to fix that, if so.

 

Sharks - help!

Ok pants suitably filled - nice one, you got me.
Don't know why i didn't get the priiloader April fool as well.

 

Sharks...I was like "WTF?!?".

Nice one!

 

@clipper

tried it 3 times, same result, but only on one wii, the other wii run fine
changed date as you suggested...no issues on that wii

btw modded all my wii back to hermes v4, as hermes v5 still give me the hangs ifd i dont press directly up/down on screen/menu changes
does not happen with v4
tested with 2.5 and 3.5'' hdd, and also ntfs/fat
few posts above someone wrote about similiar issues

 

Why are you always so condescending Clipper? Did you EVER think to yourself that it's YOUR code that's the problem?? This loader was rock solid until you and Gannon showed up and added your so-called "code" to the loader. I mean seriously, who would override the A button?!? LOL! And btw, I really don't appreciate what you said to oggzee on irc yesterday. Go ahead and fork cfg like you threatened - Oggzee and I are done with this loader anyways. And if nobody believes us, check how long it's been since there's been an update.

see ya.
