Very happy about this. I only read in google code the internal argumentation.

Impatient? Lol. Why impatient? If you can read you would know, that it was absolutely not clear that it will be added. Tss.

I rarely post here, but I just wanted to come out of the woodworks to say my thanks to the developer of this incredible Loader program.
I'll make sure to keep up with all the updates, cause right now I'm on the edge of my seat to see what improvements can be added.

I wish game-ripping times were faster, but I assume that's a limitation of the Wii's DVD drive. Other than that, I absolutely love this loader. Thanks again!

EDIT: I tried ripping in USB Loader 1.1 (I had read that it was faster) and it does seem faster. I'm not exactly sure why that is, but it seems like the best solution right now is to rip with USB Loader 1.1 and then browse/play using CoverFlow.

The cover download doesn't work for me. I have all the folders set up correctly and everything but it refuses to take for some reason.

I click the download cover button, it goes all the way through the progress bar but when it goes back to the config screen after downloading the whole thing locks up and my cursor disappears, and none of the images are displaying in the background behind the config. I can hold the power button to shut off the Wii but the next time I check my SD card there are no downloaded images.

What happens if you manually download the covers and try them that way ?

also how many games on the usb drive ?

Try using the WBFS manager - it will get all the covers for you.
Then transfer them to your card.

maybe try 1 or 2 first and see if it helps- delete all the old ones

Images I put on there myself work. There were no old ones to delete. Despite the progress bar going all the way during the cover download nothing was saved to my SD card.

I would use the WBFS manager's images but they don't download at the right dimensions. Unless the line in the first post that says images have to be 160x224 is incorrect.

Honestly, why does this have to be annoying like this? I just want shit to work like it is supposed to and keep the amount of work I have to do to make the loader look good to a bare minimum. I don't care enough to take a bunch of my time to sperg out and download a bunch of images one at a time.

Well it works for everybody else, so I suggest you format your SD card, check your internet connection and try again.

You're right. Your time is invaluable.

Try spending a few weeks building a loader for ungrateful dicks and see how it feels.

ALSO, Unlock your SD Card.
