Hacking Configurable USB Loader

cfg v63a2 (alpha)
cfg63a2.dol
cfg63a2-222.dol
lang63a2.zip
(or online update)
Changes:

cfg v63a2 (alpha)
* Updated dip+frag plugin for ciosx r21
* Added ciosx r21 base detection (Thanks FIX94)


If r21 base detection is still broken I blame it on FIX94

I updated my Spanish translation with the 63a (and 63a2) version, you can find it here:

cios 222-mload v4

Hi, 222-v62b2 worked fine, but moving to 222-v62b3 caused an exception CSI blah blah blah error on loading. (The most recent version that uses cios 249 is 60, but I gave up on that some time ago.) All versions since 222-v62b3 cause the exception. One of the thing that make my setup unusual is that I have a 4k sector drive. (You might recall fixing this a few month ago? You're still the only usb loader to work with 4k sector drives AFAIK.

) I'm wondering if one of the "Minor clean ups" in the change log caused this?

 

[Dr. Clipper]

Just got this going today using ModWii, but I've got a problem. My games can freeze at any given moment and I don't really know what to do. It's happened on Mario Kart, SSBB and Mario and Sonic Olympics.

Any ideas?
Sounds like your hard drive might have spin down issues. Try other IOSes/bases, or search on the Internet to see if your drive has tools that can be used to disable the spin down or sleep timing of the drive.

QUOTE(bert02 @ Dec 28 2010, 12:45 PM) also how do i add games to certain profiles...? for the life of me i cant find where to go

You can use the Manage favorites/hidden button on the Configurator's Game Settings tab to quickly access a grid to do so:

or you can switch to a different profile in Cfg and then use the options screen for each game to toggle the favorite option.

Hey Oggzee, did you need other people to upload their results of the cios 21 tests or no? Would be happy to help if you need it.

I have revisited the changes between v62b2 and v62b3 and i find it rather unlikely that any of that cleanups could have caused this, the cleanups were mostly removing some old comments and moving functions a little bit around, but mostly no actual functional changes were done.
However in versions between 62a2 and 62b there were partition related changes, because of the ext2fs support. Maybe it broke even earlier than 62b2?
I would suggest just taking the latest 62 release or 63a2, and when the crash happens make a screenshot and post it so i can see the stack dump numbers, and let me know exactly which binary you have used.
maybe trying v62-debug and making a couple of screenshots with the debugs on screen could give me some info too...

No, it should be fine what FIX94 provided is all I need.
But you can verify if the loader does indeed report proper base ios for r21.
If it doesn't let me know.

 

[Shano56]

I can confirm proper base report for r21

looks like FIX94 turned out useful after all

Hi, cheers for the reply. Here are some test results:
cfg60.dol - ok
cfg61-222.dol - ok
cfg61.dol - ok
cfg62a-222.dol - ok
cfg62a2-222.dol - ok
cfg62a3-222.dol - ok
cfg62a4-222.dol - ok
cfg62a5-222.dol - ok
cfg62b-222.dol - ok
cfg62b2-222.dol - ok
cfg62b3-222.dol - csi exception
cfg62-222.dol - csi exception
Will grab some screenshots and also try the debug version and post the results.

 

[OncleJulien]

cfg62b3-222.dol - csi exception
cfg62-222.dol - csi exception

you might need alt-dols for those.

Testing out cfg v63a2 and ciosx21 and I think there are some base/slot issues.

Base 58 only seems to work properly if in slot 249 or 250. If used in 247 or 248, I receive the following when launching a game:

Error: Setting up fragments 0 1
ID Mismatch [gameid]
Error setWBFS -3

Other base's seem to work fine in 247 and 248.

With slot 245 and 246, I can't seem to get any base to work. Whatever base I put into those slots (tried a few differnet ones), returns the following when launching game:

Set_frag: -128
Error setWBFS -128

I don't understand how to get music playing in the background. Can someone tell me the exact folder structure and settings?

This is how I have it setup
music = usb:\usb-loader\music\1.mp3

Good call. Will try that as well. Cheers.

Hi everyone,my name is Javier and I from Spain.I have a doubt about CFG Loader.What does the word [FRAG] mean in the screen loader?

Thx

Would updating this loader to the newest version fix a 002 error?
