Homebrew Cover Collections for Emulators With Cover Support

[mastershoes]

Update 03-28-14: (Yeah I know it's the 29th, but i did the update yesterday and didn't get around to posting it.)

NES Update! It includes 102 new covers and 4 cleaned/updated covers. They come from a little bit of everywhere.. some from TCP, some from halen and i think some from Pepois and Wiimpathy. There are definitely some candidates for some future upgrades in this update, but overall they look pretty good in the flow. Thanks everyone for the contributions! All links & folders have been updated.

Have fun!

Excellent work Master Shoes!!!!

Would you please let us know which are the 4 covers you cleaned/updated? It would be great to have them in a separate folder for future reference.

Warm regards

They are always posted in a "cleaned-updated" folder.

The Atari 2600 WiiFlow recommended link is not working. :-( keep getting a HTTP 400 Bad Request. :-(

Also, I'm unable to have a Sega Saturn Bos Art appear for my game.

On my usb drive, I have usb:/wiiflow/boxcovers/yabause

inside that I have a .png from the Saturn box art pack called. "galatic_attack.bin"

On my usb drive, I have usb:/roms/saturn

inside that I have a .bin file called "galatic_attack.bin"

I start Wiiflow, and then I perform a 'reload cache' and then I goto the yabause plugin. It shows my game (naked box art) but it does not display the box art I have on my usb drive?

I just checked the link, and it is working fine over here. Maybe try again?

Also, can you post your Yabause .ini file?

EDIT:

Update 04-01-14: An MSX set has been added to the "Computer Systems" section. It contains 126 covers and 12 alternates. These were put together by mike1 with some contributions from Wiimpathy as well. Big thanks for the contributions guys!!

 

[infidelity]

Sure, here it is. :-) And i'll try the Atari 2600 link again.

there's your answer, name your covers after your cue files

"galatic_attack.bin" cue

AHH! Awesome!

So stupid of me to overlook that!

It shows up now! :-D

BTW, I know this thread isn't the proper one, but could you possibly direct me to an active wiiflow thread? I have some questions on specific things like, when exiting a game that was launched from wiiflow, why cant you return back to wiiflow?

Glad you got it working

For the Wiiflow topic, look in the "Wii/Backup Loaders" forum, and stickied on the top you'll find the wiiflow topic. As for your specific question, there are two ways to do that, but both ways i know require that you have a wiiflow forwarder on your wii. You can either do it through the main menu settings (look for "Return To" and select Wiiflow) or in your wiiflow.ini by finding the line returnto= and putting in your channel ID.

Also...

UPDATE 04-02-14:

I know i just uploaded that MSX set yesterday, but mike1 sent me another 50 covers and I went through the first upload and noticed i never changed the covers to the proper regions (a lot of European covers labeled Japan and vice versa) so I went ahead and completely re-upped everything along with the new ones. Thanks to mike1 for another round of MSX covers! The revised set went from 125 +12 Alts to 181 + 2 Alts. Have fun, and if you downloaded this set prior to now, please re-download it!

Want to play some PS1 games, but those unsightly question marks got you down? Then try some of THESE! https://www.dropbox.com/s/j0jkym8rm28lk3h/-done-.rar
299 covers (one alt for Pepsiman) Sure some could be better, others need better source material, but what ya gonna do?

 

[halen]

Oh man!!! 299 PS1 Covers!!!!!! I will need a 6tb HDD!!!

@ mastershoes, thank you! :-)

Also, could someone upload the boxart for the Atrii 2600 game Enduro? It's my #1 favorite racing game for the 2600, and sadly its not there! :-(

No problem, and here's an enduro cover put together by mike1. It is not currently in the set posted here.

Hi just wondering if anyone can help as to why the cover art in wiiflow is displaying the wrong way round as above I downloaded the cover pack from here (snes horizontal shrunken spine for wiiflow) ive tried manually rotating file and it just becomes more distorted.

also when i launch snes game from wiiflow it seems to just take me to the snes9xgx emu and i have select the game again from there is that normal?

also when i launch snes9xgx emu from wiiflow source menu it always asks for select partition and doesnt
seem to remember, the snes9xgx box is ticked has this got something to do with the categories options as im not sure what there for

thanks in advance sorry for asking so much!!

they are being displayed right you just need a theme with a default.ini that rotates the cover and sizes it to look right https://sites.google.com/site/wiiflowiki4/themes
