Hey, is there a way to change the name CFG displays and sorts with? I got Zelda SS under Z and Legend of Zelda TW under L. It drives me nuts.
Yep, get the titles.txt, you can find it in the options.
Thank you worked perfect! Now I can find a English cover for Fatal Frame 4 I'll have nothing more to complain about.

When I try to start a game, it stucks on "Booting Wii game, please wait...". I can fix it by changing the boot IOS version, but after some time, the same thing happens with the new IOS and I have to set it back to the old one to make it work (I change between 222,223,224,249 and 250.
Could you please try this cios?
cIOS-d2x-v7alpha5.zip
It's a bit different from the regular versions and for some people it works better.

Why aren't more developed versions of CFG USB loader? The last one is 70 of 5 months ago!!!
Is there anything specific YOU think is missing?!
Exactly, CFG is complete regarding to the developer, and he is not interested in implementing emunand afaik..
Ok, I don't have new feature request, but the other loaders continue the development.I hope that the project CFG, does not end here.

I was thinking for a feature request for quite some time.
I don't know if it's even possible, but an option to force 4:3 or 16:9 would be nice.
I'd like to explain: Some games look sharper at 4:3 on my HDTV ( with side bars of course ) while others not only have side pillars, but are also letter boxed.
Currently, to play a game in 4:3 I have to go to the Wii system settings and set the widescreen options to 4:3 and then adjust the TV format as well. Then if I need to play a game in 16:9 I have to repeat the step.
Since there is an option in the CFG to force 4:3 or 16:9 in the general settings, I was wondering if it's possible to add the option on a per game basis from the game setting menus on the fly.
I hope it made sense !

When I check the IOS tab in CFG USB Loader, it says IOS245 is not installed. Is there any general recommendation of what slot a IOS245 should be based on?

Right now I have:

cIOS202[60]-v5.1R
cIOS222[38]-v5.1R
cIOS223[37]-v5.1R
cIOS224[57]-v5.1R
cIOS246[37]-d2x-v7-final
cIOS247[38]-d2x-v7-final
cIOS248[58]-d2x-v7-final
cIOS249[56]-d2x-v7-final
cIOS250[57]-d2x-v7-final

Is there any base that could be good to have more than these?

I've found no errors with the list I have now, but I have no base for 55. I'll use that one for now. Thanks. :-)

This is the recommended setup, especially for Cfg:
202[60]v5.1 rodries mod
222[38]v4
223[38+37]v4
224[57]v5.1 rodries mod
249[56] d2x v7
250[57] d2x v7

The wiiflow one installs several useless cIOS's because wiiflow doesn't let you choose what cIOS to use, but rather picks which one to use depending on the base, even if that hurts performance. It also no longer supports hermes.

Sorry if I'm asking a stupid question, I'm new with this. I've installed cfg usb loader v70 on my wii and I'm running cios 249. When i insert a game and I want to install it to my Western Digital My Passport Essential 320 gb usb 2.0, after a while it hangs. Some games hang at about 3 to 5 % of installation, other games hang after 50 % of installation. The percentage is the same per game every time I try. All the other functions of cfg usb loader work perfect, but the install function doesn't seem to work for me. I've downloaded some iso files from the net and I want to do something back by sharing my games so I'm eager to learn what I'm doing wrong. Can someone help me with this?

Are you using latest cios249 d2x v7? If not get it. Oh and check out the hdd sleep issue too, that could be a problem.

Sorry if this have been asked before; I have a softmodded Wii and I wonder if by any chance the softmod can disappear if I do something wrong while installing Configurable USB Loader? You know, when you overwrite stuff. I already have waninokos loader but this one seem better and I want to try it out. Also it says that SD cards are preferred instead of SDHC, does SDHC still work though? Thanks.

You don't overwrite anything, just shove the app on your SD and you're ready to try it out, I think.

And yeah SDHC still works, I'm using it right now (to load apps off, not to load games)

SD has ALWAYS been preferred over SDHC, because of compatibility issues. Since you know the one you have works, then there is no reason to stop using it.

How do I keep the naming of the games (on the usb cfg ) to be the same as on the hard drive?
when ever the cfg loads up it uses a diffrent naming of the games than I prefer,
I would rather have the usb cfg to show the games as I have named on the hard drive..
Thanks Bud :)

    @AncientBoi, Yeah, believe you can do PSP games as well. But a Pi5 is much powerful in comparison.

    Not sure about other models of Pi4 but the Pi 4 B with 8GBs OCed to 2Ghz handles PSP really great except like 1 game I found and it is playable it just looks bad lol Motor Storm Arctic something or other.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Other games I can have turned up to like 2X and all kinds of enhancements, Motorstorm hmmm nope 1X and no enhancements lol

    To me that seems reasonable.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I mean since basically all the games are errmmm free lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean yeah sure but the specs are the same as a $50 model, it's just those pesky "quality of life" things driving up the price, like an actually working speaker, or buttons that don't melt, and stuff like that.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think all in my Pi 4 was well north of 200 bucks 150ish for the Pi 4 the case the fancy cooler, then like 70 for the 500GB MicroSD then like 70 for the Xbox controller. But honestly it's a nice set up I really enjoy and to me was worth every penny. (even bought more controllers for 2 or 4 player games.) hmmm have never played any 2 player games yet :(
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah that's what I hate about the RPi, it's supposedly $30 or something but it takes an additional $200 of accessories to actually turn it into a working something.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    yes that's the expensive part lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I mean sure it's flexible and stuff but so is uremum but it's fiddly.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah a lot of it I consider a hobby, using Batocera I am constantly adjusting the collection adding and removing stuff, scraping the artwork. Haven't even started on some music for the theme... Also way down the road I am considering attempting to do a WiiFlow knock off lol
  • Veho @ Veho:
    I want everything served on a plate plz ktnx, "work" is too much work for me.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Hmm, with that in mind, maybe a complete out-the-box solution with all the games collected, pacthed and optimized for me would be worth $150 :unsure:
