Just a quick question: can this loader use usb microphones ingame?

I think they ^should^ work with cIOS38 rev13b - but I haven't tested because I don't have a microphone

This is a confirmed bug with cIOS rev13 and 13b. Your choices are to:
a) power-cycle your wii between games
b) downgrade to rev12 (or below)
c) only play one game per sitting

rev14 should fix this

have noticed since i've added new games recently that they aren't being displayed in order anymore ?

anyone else having this problem ?

TIA
Yes, I have the same issue. But I think it could be caused because the gameid is not in titles.txt?

Start a second game without having to turn off your Wii can easily be avoided, by simply choose "Reset" (instead of choosing "Wii Menu") when you pause the game with the "Home Button".

Nice tool! I love it! I just have one request: Somehow press a certain button to go back to the loader screen during Gameplay.

I'm experiencing some weird problems. When the wii first boots coverflowloader always get stuck at initializing WBFS and than he notifies that he can't find a drive. Then i press B (which in 30% of the cases doesn't work) and i retry but then i get a stack dump. When i reboot the wii then it works. Any explanation? I'm at rev13a now, maybe i am going to try rev12 this evening.

Great app!! I'm loving having all the games in one place.

Just wondering if it'd be possible to have a setting where it would automatically rip the game to the HDD when it's put into the Wii, then eject the disc when it's done? Would just mean it'd speed up the ripping process a bit.

Cheers!

thanks for the quick reply. is there a bug list that the average user can view and post new ones? i know the google page has something but thats too technical.
keep up the good work guys.

Hi all,
Everytime I try and rip a retail game it gets to a certain percentage and boots me back to the Homebrew channel screen - any ideas?
Doing it for all games - the HDD is a brand new WD 250gb My Passport Essential.
Hmm, just noticed this seems to happen on EVERY loader I try. I updated my CIOS to V12 and still the same probs.
I can install on my P.C no probs through wbfs intelligent loader, but my actually retail games won't copy?

Does this forum have a search feature for individual threads? I can't find it.

I currently access Coverfloader from a WAD on the Wii Menu. Is there a WAD for RC6?

If I want to use latest code I have to compile by myself. Is this the only way?
Is any official place where latest dol will be stored like for some other loaders?
Thanks.

You can use forwarder if you do not like to start it from HBC.
For example from here

Forwarder is a shortcut that will execute dol in the appropriate location.

1. Get the forwarder you like and install wad via WAD Manager. It should create new chanell in main Wii menu.
2. Rename Coverfloader.dol to boot.dol and put it into the folder where forwarder is expecting it.
Usually SD:/apps/usbloader/boot.dol (SD:/apps//)
3. Press on forwarder and it should start Coverfloader.
