Hacking Configurable USB Loader

[wiixale]

Sorry, but, nobody what could be my problem?

This is: I can't run Tom's Clancy H.A.W.X. 2 with any cIOS. All give me a black screen...

Today, i try to run this on NeoGamma, runs perfectly con cIOS 249 base 56. So, why i can't run it on CFG USB Loader?
Thanks in advance, i really don't know why this happen.

I played it with 249 rev 20 base 57 flawlessly.

Bad game dump?
@Natx15: Try installing it again to USB drive from the game disc.

I have a problem where the loader will freeze up if I start it with my usb hdd pluged into the Wii. To get it to work I have to have it unplugged and then plug it in when the loader is looking for a device.

I am using this hard drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16822149185

and just updated to the latest version of the loader.
My drive is formated FAT32 ( share it with my PS3)

it usually takes 2 or 3 times, but once I get it launched it works fine playing games.

Does dvd launcher support external optical drives..?

If I remember right, the answer is "no".

dun4cheap:
no idea what could cause that.
what about 67c does that work fine?
Maybe try running check disk on both partitions to verify there are no errors (quick scan no need to check for bad balocks)

Oggzee,

Thanks for getting back to me. I did try 67c and it worked as well with the usb channel loader. Afterwards I plugged my drive in to a windows 7 machine and it did detect problems and fixed it. I then retried all three versions of cfg 66,67 and 68 with the channel loader and they were all working again. What baffles me is what happened to the filesystem and why did ver. 66, 67 still work from the channel loader while 68 didn't. They all worked from the homebrew channel though at all times. I do know that the settings file was one of the damaged files again.

I will continue monitoring it. Thanks for the help.

It runs for me on cfg 66, 67 and 68 with ios 250 base 57 dx2.

I have not figured out how to play it online though. Any idea?

Found something in 68a, when setting GUI=0 you can't go back to GUi when pressing B like you could in previous versions.
How can I start CFG in Console mode, but still be able to go to the GUI?

gui=0 used to disable the GUI and it still does. gui=1 is the method to enable the GUI but not start up in that mode. Note that the new GUI menu will not be enabled if you use gui=1, though (you can still enter the Konami code to turn it on). We plan to have a method to start in the console but have the GUI and GUI menu enabled soon.

Thanks!

After posting I see oggzee already changed this in v68a3! (gui=3)

2 issues:

1. I cannot update my themes, is it normal? I'm sure Internet is working, as I could update wiitdb and titles.txt, for example... It simply freezes now.
2. When in cover3D mode, pushing B to go to a list of games in console mode it doesn't work anymore; it shows the list for a second and then back the cover3D mode.

What is the best option?
Run the cfg loader for SD or HD.

Having your usb-loader folder on HD is highly recommended as it's faster to load covers and stuff that way. As for which you put the .dol on, that's a matter of personal choice.

I updated my brother in law's Wii from 4.2U to 4.3U System Menu using ModMii and installed the Configurable Loader as well but the only problem is that when I load up a game using the USB drive, it takes a very long time to start the game, I guess around 30 or more seconds, why is that? what can I do to make it start faster? thanks
according to the info in the loader

Loader version 68a2
IOS249 R21003 FRAG
BASE: IOS56 r21-d2x-v3 modmii

Perhaps try some other IOSes to see if any are faster.

Can also confirm these bugs

In the game settings, where you have IOS 249, change it some other you have installed.

Can you launch apps stored on SD card with CFG loader ?
Or atleast other channels ?

As far as I know the answer is no. You could use a forwarder iso, but that's not really that what you mean.
