Hacking Coverflow demo

[DragTom70]

@toni.belangenani - I wouldnt expect NO errors at all, but a definite minimum of errors due to the care being taken by Hibernatus to ensure as many bugs as possible are spotted prior to full public release.

Mmmh, well, Hibern is a high-end quality programmer from my point of view. WiiFlow.beta2 is my favorite loader since it came out and even that is a very stable version (without any public beta-testing). I only use another loader for the Alt-Dol-thing. My expections on other projects are always low, because I have seen so much crap out there (and hype when it comes to another - yet unstable - final loader with floading capabilities).
But this one, well, ya, sounds like x-mas

Cheers

Tom

PS: But of course, there is no thing like "bugless software".

I feel much more excited for this than I do for xmas for some reason. Is it just me, or are us WiiFlow users a little more into our loader than others. I feel like this has been sort of a little secret for us up until now, but that it might just blow wide open with this upcoming release. Everyone's gonna be hopping on the bandwagon, guaranteed... which is a good thing, of course.

I agree totally, but I'm 43 and Xmas sucks now.

I love showing people the old beta2 version of WiiFlow and watching their jaws drop. Only my kids have seen the latest release and they like it. They especially love the ******** and the *********, oh and dont forget ******* *******!!

It is such a nice loader and even with this previous version the bugs were minimal. I'd use it as an example of how programming should be done.

With the new additions

there is no reason to use another loader that I have found so far.

Well maybe if you "need" to see a sentence or two describing the game and then watch a spinning disk...lol. I want neither if it slows down the act of loading the games or clutters the interface.

Of course more users may speed up full cover availability, hopefully.

I am not so sure you will convince some of the users of other loaders to make the change, but I feel there will be a lot of new converts.

Maybe WiiFlow simply attracts a more discerning userbase...

Whats the word on GH5 with the newest version being tested? Do you have to do all sorts of funky stuff like you have to with the other loaders.

 

[Benjay]

Well , with other loaders , you just have to use cios 223 (merge 36 - 37) from Hermes.

 

[Joshwraith]

When will be the approximated release date of this loader?.. one, two weeks ? I Know Hibern is pretty busy but an approximated date would be nice..

 

[Hibern]

approximately 1 month

 

[Joshwraith]

Oh.. thanks Hibern... so I will have time to find all my covers in high res lol.

 

[kkmll]

Great!, a month isn't too much anyways.!

Merci pour le superb loader Hibern! j'attendrais volontier un mois ou plus!

Offtopic question.. does your work has anything to do with this stuff Hibern?

I agree completely. I've been using WiiFlow since the beginning, but at first I overlooked this thread because it appeared to be a demo only, and there were quite a few concept threads floating around. When I realized there was an actual release, I gave it a try, and was blown away. At that time I was using CoverFloader, because it was the first "fully realized" coverflow loader. WiiFlow was so impressive, however, that I found it hard to use both loaders, and stuck with WiiFlow. When I hear other members talk about the other loaders, I often get the impression that they've never tried WiiFlow, and that's fine for now.

I've always loved this loader for it's smooth feel, and fantastic manipulation/animation of 3-D box art in a coverflow environment. It's masterfully crafted, and while I'm guilty of downloading (and testing) the 100 million different revisions of GX, I appreciate the important, and meaningful revisions that WiiFlow slowly leaks out.

I get the feeling that when WiiFlow is near completion, it will finally get a new thread that it undoubtedly deserves. It will be huge, or else it will be a treasured secret, that all of us will share. Either way, I'm excited about the new revision that you lucky few are testing, and I can't thank Hibern enough for making a loader that is better than what most companies would pay a fortune to produce

cheers mate , it doesnt get any easier than you doing it

Well, yeah, this new version, when i first launched it, i was disoriented because i wasn't expecting the surprises that Hibern had cooked up.

Even my brother who had been so used to apple's coverflow was blown away. Alas, I'm not allowed to say more except to thank Hibern for his wonderful work.

As for testing, the only error I found was the stack dump when downloading with the Wii not connected to a network.

What can I say, it's fast, crisp,, very pretty, and now very configurable.

 

[RAVMN]

And the traslation that i had do, it´s excellent (I have 2 words to transalate, and its ended the spanish traslation)

And i had a Galician traslator. he need to translate 1 word and it´s finished his work (He write one very large for a button)

 

[patts]

Hibern : Need any swedish translations?

Im willing to help out.

 

[Hibern]

Sure, but i almost have finished the 2nd test version, so i'll send you a message when it's ready.
