quick question. How do you uninstall coverfloader from preloader? i am down to 275blocks and think that installing coverfloader took a chunk from my already small amount of space. i think i will be using a channel to load from once i get this uninstalled. thanks for any help.

Wiiboxart site will be disabled in upcoming RC9 version, in favour of wiitdb.com
This site has other informations like ESRB rating, number of players, and other things that we will hope to add soon.
It also doesn't have bandwidth limitation.

Please note also that RC9 will not load covers with 3-4 digits anymore, just 6 digits one, that is more standard.

that sounds relly good can't wait

Has anyone had problems with the latest build (R752) not able to get covers from wiitdb.com? I can see that it talks to the website and says it is doing things but I keep getting 'some error occurred' through the whole process of downloading covers. When it is finished there is nothing there. I've renamed the appropriate folders where the covers and stored so that it would start from scratch and no luck. There is nothing in those folders after the download process.

Also does the wiitdb.zip file go in the usb-loader directory?

I've been able to get wiitdb.com to work with USB Loader GX wiht their latest build by renaming the folders so that it would start a download from scratch. Funny thing is that I tried to play Ghostbusters with this build and that is broken now but works fine with Coverfloader.

Are you trying to use the 3d 'full' covers?, from what i can see no full covers have been uploaded yet to that site

As a matter of fact I was. When it didn't work the first time I tried it, I also tried the standard 2D covers before I tried to recompile it again. I'll give the 2D another try and report my findings later.

These games should work fine.
Ive got my sims racing working with cios10 and the latest build of this loader.
If your using RC8 with the anti 002 fix or 002 fix it prob wont work because there was a bug with the per game settings which was getting corrupted.
Try the latest build and it should be fine, if you cant compile youself then RC9 should be out very soon.

Very very soon

Added support for regional covers, but didn't test since I don't have french/dutch/corean games.
Need feedback so we can release RC9.

Do you mean how the back cover is displayed?.

I like how it flips over but it needs to be zoomed in more if possible. If youve got the front cover zoomed in on the options then it would be great that when you flip over to the rear, then the rear cover is also zoomed, as at the moment its in the distance.

what zoom in? I used to see that in RC7 but in RC8 it's gone. you press 2 and it just turns without zooming back.

Yes your right, when you click '2' it turns to the rear cover but doesnt zoom in.
This is what we are asking the developers if it can be done.

Excellent work done by the developers.

Just so people know, its worth deleting your gamelist.xml file if your upgrading from rc8, as rc8 corrupted this file with per game settings.
RC9 fixes the problem but if the file is already corrupted then per game settings wont work in RC9 either, so just delete the file and RC9 will create a new one.

  • cearp @ cearp:
    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
