Hacking Crap, easy to use channel creator

[wichoxp]

There are not extra parameters when you choose ConfUsbLoader.dol as loader

...

... could it be something wrong with Crap

?

Well it's normal, it's a standalone loader (actually exact copy of cfg usb loader) not a forwarder... You should use a forwarder.

I've seached for some CFG forwarder the last week, but I didn't find anything on the web

... some clue?

I just tried using crap to run a game off SD, works perfectly.

1) Open Crap
2) Select your ISO/WBFS file
3) Select loader: Configurable forwarder (no intro)
4) Select game partition: FAT1
5) Extra parameters: double-click "device=sdhc"
6) Create channel
7) Install WAD to Wii
8) Ensure following are located on SD root:

apps/USBLoader_cfg/boot.dol
usb-loader/
wbfs/

apps/USBLoader_cfg/boot.dol

I didn't noticed that folder before... NOW IT WORKS

!!!

THANK YOU

when i start crap for the first time it says it cannot create common key and i have put all the common keys i know in its folder... what gives?

Then put it somewhere where it has write access and hence create the common-key file... I guess you are using either Win7 or Vista....

In the next version of Crap, will the forwarders created use nForwarder58 ??

WiiCrazy,

Thanks for all your hard work, this is awesome! I'm able to successfully create my channels forwarding to USB Loader GX, but whenever I click on a channel, I get a black screen and then the Wii screen comes up and takes me back to the home screen. Any ideas?

I'm trying to load off of a WBFS drive. My Wii is on 4.2u. Any other info you'd need let me know.

Thanks!

My guess would be that the usbloadergx's boot.dol isn't in the correct folder.

I actually saw that a couple of posts back and put that boot.dol in all kinds of folders and even created some and still no go.

Where exactly should that .dol be?

Could it be because I have USB Loader GX as a channel as well? I don't think that would make a difference. I don't run USB Loader Gx from Homebrew so there's no directory in my SD/APPS. Could that be an issue?

Thanks for the reply.

Man, crap saved me, i had to update to cois rev20 to run most of the games and it my channels created with Cloader wouldn't work anymore.

But i have this question, how can i set the loading configuration of my games?? There are a couple PAL games on my drive that i need to force to NTSC to play, as well I'm from mexico, but i dont like the spanish language on my games, and i want to launch most games in english, so, any idea how can i achieve this???

Thanks in advance

Launch your favorite usb loader normally, forwarder or hbc, set everything you need for each game to work. When starting a game from a crap created forwarder all thing you will have set will be taken into consideration.

I would like to reitterate my question

I would also like to know if the forwarder will take into consideration arguments used in the meta.xml of the loader used.

If not, I make the suggestion.

I have the feeling that if I use cfgloader-222v5.1[38] + argument intro=0 (direct launching from channel) = very fast way to load a game.

Ok, looks like i wasnt clear enough

How do i set on any loader

1.- To Force NTSC
2.- To use only english

The only loader on which i see this is wable to set is in Yet another loader (can only set region force) and uloader 1.1 mod by sorg

So, any idea how to achieve this with crap, i dont see any tutorial around, neither any tip on this post

@bosman : it seems you need to create a forwarder for the game rather than using built-in loaders... you have four alternatives... wiiflow, uLoader, cfg usb loader, usb loader gx...

hello, i have the same problem of bosman with just dance 2 (can't open big file)
how can i get wiiflow in crap ? i see it nowhere
thanks

 

[WiiCrazy]

for advanced use, employ configurable forwarder and supply extra arguments so that you can use different cios / language / video mode and so on... standalone loaders are outdated...

again up to date loaders are able to launch just dance 2... (wiiflow, uLoader & configurable forwarders will work)

for the forwarders to work you need to have the actual loader setup in you sd or hdd...

About that post, you are pointing to Spidy1000's ftp. It's not accessible anymore, so you may want to edit that post. Just point to the google code downloads page to get the latest version of wiiflow (http://code.google.com/p/wiiflow/downloads/list).
