Hacking Cover Flow USB ISO Loader by Beardface

[mestapho]

He's saying that in the usb loader in the options for the game, you need to select one of those options depending on what cios you are currently running.

Now unless you have anything to actually contribute to the thread, I suggest you run along kid, adults are talking here.

OMG serious internet whining Drama in progress, please do not disturb the mighty queen Logan!
By the way, most games work fine with most of us users... Maybe you have some difficulty using software in general?

I realise that. Not sure why he was saying it to me.

Have I wronged you in another life or something? What's your fucking problem? Learn to read. I don't have issues with the games you cheese munching surrender monkey. My issues are with the buggy loader.

Come on guys. I'm sure you've both got better things to do with your lives than conduct a pillow-fight in our thread.
Let's get back to the issues. Logan, if you'd like to help improve "the buggy loader" then please file some thorough reports on our Googlecode site. We will try to fix them.

Well I would like to be able to try out the latest revision but I'm having issues compiling it. Some GRRLIB errors.

I've started putting together a coverfloader web site to hopefully provide for a more formal location for builds/info etc...

its very raw at the moment; but here it is:

Nice intro

edit: awww, you changed it

I had a cover problem as well, long story short, I ended up running the fix disk thingy in windows and re-downloading the covers, they work fine now. I imagine it was something on my end rather then the app though.

Can you explain the 'fix disk thingy?' in more detail? I have the same issue - loaded games using WBFS Manager in windows, games have 4 digit ID's. Download covers using CoverFloader, no disk art at all and no covers for some games (Dawn of Discovery as an example).

I have CoverFloader 1.0 and I know it now uses 6 digit ID's. How can I convert my game ID's to 6 digit?

Thanks!

LOL: yeah; i felt it redundant to mention how the site sucks; since it was so obvious that it sucked.

Thats odd you are getting 4 digits. I just pulled a spreadsheet from WBFS and all mine are 6 digits (242 NTSC, 10 PAL, 2 RF)
Do a right click in WBFS and export list (I name my file .xls so it is an excel spreadsheet..highlight column A then do this:
Data-->Text To Columns -->Delimited -->Next-->Check "Comma"-->Finish.
This should give you a well laid out list of everything. Name/Disc ID/Region/Size on WBFS

Try that and see if it still shows as four digits

Since I've claimed to be an advocate of posting dols... I'll do just that.

here is a 1.1 candidate build (r842) from svn... Has many fixes; but the ones I just added and find useful enough to share are:

1) If in 3D mode and cover not found, use the 2D cover instead
2) Fixed Cover zoom/flip in 3D mode (No longer small back cover)

Enjoy-

Same. Thanks Nullkill. Yay! Open beta testing

 

[Logan]

Excellent. Cover downloading seems to be fixed again with this build

 

[zorglub07]

Nullkill, I sent you a PM but maybe you missed it, and I didn't find any other way to reach you.
Does your team have an irc channel?

 

[Logan]

Argh! Thought the cover issues had gone but they haven't

At least I have them downloaded again, but I STILL have a problem downloading Wii Sports Resort cover EVEN though the cover exists! Why is this?

 

[Scoobyscoobydoo]

Latest build is very nice.

The 3d rear cover viewing is now fixed too and you can see the rear cover much closer up, at the same zoom level as the front covers.

I don't think that the fullcover for RZTP01 exists (512x340), but there is an issue: if cover doesn't exist, we store a file with gameID as name. The size is about 7 K and contains DOCTYPE...I'll add this to official issues

Hmm.

Perhaps you're right. That the correct size doesn't exist. Other loaders can download the cover though. But maybe they use a different size?

Otherwise though, I'm liking this new release
