-----------------------------------------------------------------
* Fixed drive letter disappearing bug for WBFS drive
* Made the WBFS drive sticky
* Removed libeay.dll / OpenSSL dependency completely. Wad 
packing & unpacking library changed to Leathl's managed Wii.cs wii 
library due to memory protection issues in the original unmanaged 
c library. Nifty for those who do batch channel creation. My thanks 
goes to Leathl for this.
* Nand loaders (base wads) now easily configurable. Use it with 
caution though modified taiko nand loader doesn't work correctly on 
480p. And comex's nand loader doesn't seem to work at all. 
* Now cleaning up temp folder before each wad packing.

No problem, thanks for the update anyway.
Try to fix the bug soon, at least we know that the bug exist and how works.

Can't seem to use the Triiforce forwarder...
v2.3 works for most games, but I get stuck at a white screen on Muscle March. It worked once, but then I restarted my Wii and I'm getting "No .dol found". I'm not sure if I screwed it up because I didn't remove my USB HD in between

will it also work if its on the usb , and not sd?

I second that, I don't even use an sd in my wii, everything is on my usb hdd (fat32 partition). Will this work with my setup?

Most of the loaders don't need sd or usb... the only ones needing are forwarders... and they do work with both... first trying to load the loader from sd then falling back to usb...

 

[wulfie]

so do I have to configure the other settings in CFGLoader since I can't change the settings for forcing region, etc

Yep exactly, it's the selling point of the forwarder... you create the channel and you reap the benefits of your already existing usb loader without reinstalling the channel...

Mario Kart ISO doesn't work.

I opened the opening.bnr for Mario Kart Wii (NTSC-U), and it said the disc ID was "_INSZZ".

(Yes, I dumped it again, same thing.) Could there be a fix for this?

You should manually rename the banner, possibly I should obtain the disc Id from somewhere else but not from the initial bytes of a disk. The disc you are using is brickblocked I guess.

disk id for mario kart is, RMCE01 (NTSC) or RMCP01 (PAL)

_INSZZ.bnr -> RMCE01.bnr, then open the RMCE01.bnr browsing in the file dialog of banner file.

Hope this helps.

Took me a while but I found out what caused my problem: 249 rev 17. I reinstalled rev 14 and the Triiforce forwarders work again, so rev 17 might not be compatible with them.

Sometimes a corrupt cIOS can also cause problems. Try reinstalling cIOS rev17 and try it with a fresh copy.

Any plans to add uLoader support?

Any plans to add uLoader support?

As I always say... First the loader you want to use should support direct game launching like cfg. usb loader.. for this you should bug the author of the said loader, not me... In this case uLoader's author...

If it's indeed supported than bug me to add support for it in Crap... Crap by itself can't use your favourite loader if it doesn't support direct game launching

In the meantime you can use standalone loaders in Crap... (Those that doesn't have forwarder in their names)

That's possible and something that is in my mind for the long past... By the way, early channel creators and even wbfs software has support for this.

 

[blaizX]

wbfsmanagar cant do this with error002fix.


edit :

You coudl always extract the dols from the finished channels with customizemii then, should work exact way loadstructor does just via HBC
