I don't have any news either. So far i only have added a new settings menu for games, haven't tested it as i've added it when i was in a hotel, without the wii. I hope to get back to it this evening, but i'm not sure.
Thank you for the update.. I almost thought this was dead

I like how you made the one box image flip to the front. I think the 2nd frame of that animation should be white so it should look like the back of the box, but you probably were already thinking that since it's unfinished.

The font looks fine too, but maybe add some caps in certain areas of the animation. For example: The box covers can say "WiiFlow" instead of "Wiiflow" and where it shows, "Wiiflow usb loader" it can show up as "WiiFlow USB Loader".

Lastly, the simple look is great, but maybe right next to the box that pops up in the front, it should show the WiiFlow name, but with at least an extra color and in a more standout font. Here is an example:

@spayrosam

Your animation is looking fantastic. I'm really glad that you're taking the time to utilize the full potential of this forwarder. This will be hard to top, and is more custom than any other loader's forwarder.
 
yes , really great animation , wish you can do something good with it.
it would be a really great forwarder.

because making a .gif animation is one thing , but transform it to a channel is another , and really hard.
You'll need the help of someone who is capable to write an entire brlan file from scratch , matching with your .gif.

Yes, you ´ve right, but I will use ``USB Loader Channel with semi-3D spinning hard disk´´ as Base. Because it has 35 frames like my project.
I will became support from wilsoff ( from Wadder.net).

2nd frame : OK
"WiiFlow" : OK
"Wiiflow usb loader": OK

I'm not so sure about the logo

I just noticed that the WiiFlow label on the side of the image looks way cooler than the one on the front of it. You should use that same one.

And in my opinion, I don't think the lettering and detail on the back of the box make it look as sleek.

This thing is gonna be sweet. Good work!
 
good work spayrosam , thats pretty impressive !

i agree the back cover doesnt help ! imo i think it needs some colour in the WiiFlow or somewhere ! maybe red , white and blue since hibernatus and yourself are french ! or whatever

great work !

Is there any way to change the game that first appears when starting Wiiflow? For me it always shows HotD 2 & 3, I'd rather it start with Alien Syndrome since it's the first letter in the alphabet for the games I have. It's not favorited, I think I may have played it once or twice but I'm not sure why it always starts on that cover when I first start Wiiflow.

The loader should startup with the last game you played. so if its HotD 2/3 then it is that. if its ghostbusters then its that.

open the "loader.ini" file (you will find it in the wiiflow folder on your SD root) with wordpad (or any text editor)..
look at this :

[GENERAL]
allow_texture_compression=yes
box_mode=yes
cheat=no
compress_cache=no
country_patch=no
cover_buffer=300
current_game=RCJE8P
device=1
error_002_fix=yes
exit_to_wii_menu=yes
fsaa=3
game_language=0
keep_png=yes
language=FRENCH

change the game ID with the one you want , save , and it should be good
wink.gif

But , like Delta123 told you , in a normal way , it should start on the last game you've played....
 
Oddly enough, it doesn't. I haven't played HotD in quite awhile, so I'm not sure why it always shows that. I'll go with the loader.ini route though, thanks.
 
First of all, thanks for this great piece of software, and thak you for NOT releasing 10 beta versions with new fixes and features every day!
I am very pleased with appearance and handling as it is.

Since there are already minor glitches reported i might add one.
Tested a friends hdd, which works fine with all loaders and holds > 150 isos, wiiflow exits automatically back to HBC after about 30 seconds, even if you do nothing. You can start any game within this time with no problem ( some 002 fixes and ALT Dol issues not counted).
It seems to relate to the cover loading from SD or an out-of-memory problem.
With my own hdd an < 40 isos everything runs fine, with the same Wii and SD Card, the same set of covers on the SD.
Has anyone noticed similar behaviour?
