Currently on 57b7 and no matter what I do and how I save the settings I cannot get the default view to startup in coverflow3d. I see it save the settings to coverflow3d but no matter what it starts up in console view. Any suggestions?

Add gui=start to config.txt.

after upgrading to 57b7, the program now starts in list view whenever i start it. i have to press B first to get the view i wanted.

how can i set it to start again in cover flow mode?
how can i set to start the game immediately after pressing A in the cover?
is it possible to get back in the CFG menu after pressing home in the wiimote so that i can choose another game quickly?

Hi Dr. Clipper
I used the Actions menu in Configurator to update both. Very good! I have a last question:

1 - I chose to save the boot.dol in SD/apps/usbloader/boot.dol overwriting the existing boot.dol. Now I have 2 boot.dol files. one with the today date (boot.dol) and the old boot.dol, but with .dol.BAK extension. I must delete this .dol.bak or rename for another name?

Tenx!

-------------------------

Doc, I want to help this wonderful project but in technic area on Wii scene I'm a dumb. I can help with designs or translation. Someone started a translation english/portuguese for the loader or for the configurator? If no, and if people has interested, I can try this. If you want or need, I can help with some designs too, for splashs or everything, if you give me the parameters (images sizes and formats).

You could delete boot.dol.bak if you wanted to (it's not necessary, but doesn't hurt to do it).

When you load up Configurable USB Loader and update, it renames the old version "boot.dol.bak" and installs the new version.

You must have accidentally deleted or moved config.txt. Have another look for it and make sure it states gui=start. To start a game immediately, add confirm_start=0 to config.txt. And to set it up so that you return to the loader instead of the Wii Menu, use return_to_channel=XXXX where XXXX is the ID of a Cfg forwarder you have installed. If you don't have a forwarder installed, try this one. The ID of the linked forwarder is DCFG.

I have using configurable USB Loader now latest - version 57b7-222(games on NTFS partition) and Madworld PAL is not work - black screen after game is started and i'm press A in "nunchuck screen". How to fix it? Later, i'm using neogamma R8 RC15 with WDFS and this game is works without any problems and configuration options
Is your Wii connected with component cables and set to 480p? If so, set video to Force NTSC and Video Patch to All.
Yes, i'm using the 480p with component cable. You solution isn't work. Madworld game id: RZZP8P. And now i'm try to run the Soul Eater Monotone Princess NTSC-J game id is RSEJGD. It's not work too - black screen

I tried to ignore it but it's bugging me.

It's "Thanks" not "Tenx".

Sorry about that, harmor. I know "thanks" is correct.
It's just a kind of shorthand we use around here

Like "plis" for "please" ... I write on impulse.
I'll take more care, I promise. Do not bother please

So you set Video to Force NTSC and Video Patch to All and it doesn't work, yet Neogamma plays it fine? Can you tell whether Neogamma is forcing 480p or not (the TV should be able to report whether the signal is interlaced or progressive)?

As for the Japanese game, try forcing the language to Japanese, and try different combinations of the VIDTV and Country Patch options.

When I had a similar problem of "failed to create directory" (some time ago, I can not remember now which function / app was) the problem was that the files / folders
were with permission set to "read only". For some reason my PC had done automatically this configuration in files on the last save I make.

You put the config.txt in the wrong location. If your themes directory is at sd:/usb-loader/themes, then config.txt should be at sd:/usb-loader/config.txt. If your themes directory is elsewhere, then try putting config.txt there instead. Alternatively, copy the themes directory over to the directory where you put config.txt as that is the directory it cannot create.

Do you have IOS249 rev 19 installed? If not, upgrade to it.

Don't use v5, use v4. Also, make sure you have set the alt dol option for the game. The best value to set it to is Disc (Ask) as that way it will just ask you which episode to run. It also helps to install the .wdm files so that you can use the alt dol disc plus method.
