Hacking GameTDB - game information database + covers

[Yod4z]

Roobitz, the problem is the ID of the game B have no country

 

[Raffles]

as WiiTDB only uses the front of the box.

WiiTDB uses the full cover too....

I never knew that - as I only use USB Loader GX (which only shows the front of course).

You live and learn...

 

[Benjay]

You should try Wiiflow

The HQ covers section of WiiTDB has been especially created for this loader.
This is the kind of cover it uses :

[Gaiaknight]

I would like to request full covers if possible of:

Zangeki no reginliev
Tales of Graces
Xenoblade

 

[icebrg5]

need cover for

Disaster - Day of Crisis RDEZ01

PAL and J versions are there but not NTSC

wiiboxart has it if needed

 

[Gaiaknight]

its not there cause an ntsc-u version never came out.

 

[icebrg5]

I have the game on my drive and wbfs manager says its NTSC and RDEZ01 is the ID.

Unless its a pal version that was converted to NTSC

 

[Gaiaknight]

yes thats what it is there is a version like that floating around its just the pal game.

On a side note we really need more japanese games with there full covers especially the bigger japan only games like tales of graces, xenoblade, and Zangeki.

I have a great interest about using WiiTDB with a program where I can play my backups directly from a portable HD (USB Loader)

What I want to know is witch USB loader has the greatest compatibility with WiiTDB. Actually "'m using wiiflow but I Want a USB loader where I can see the full cover (front and back) and a USB Loader where I can sort my games using information as required controllers or number of players.

It will be nice to read the full descriptions of the games too.
Are there any USB loader that imports all these informations from WiiTDB database?

Looking forward for your answers.
Bye!

Very nice to read that...
I like wiiflow very much
But there is now any USB Loader that already had implemented these features?

 

[zorglub07]

Padrino, give Configurable Loader a try, it displays full covers and supports the full database.

 

[Cherripez]

Could someone uploade the full covers for Sky Crawlers, Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing NTSC and Pikmin 2 PAL?

 

[Gaiaknight]

also can i request full covers of:

kage no tou (aka Lost In Shadow)
Wii Party Japanese version
New Play Control: Chibi Robo!
Monster Hunter G

 

[Cherripez]

also can i request

kage no tou (aka Lost In Shadow)

+1

I didn't request this one because I didn't figure anyone would be able to upload it.

 

[zorglub07]

Added:
Kage no tou
Wii Party Japanese version
New Play Control: Chibi Robo!
Monster Hunter G was already there (done it yesterday actually)

zorglub, Thanks for your reply
I'm already reading the cfloader forum here at gbatemp

keep up with the good work
wiitdb was the best idea ever!!!
playing Disc Backups takes the wii experience to the next level
and using usb loaders with all this info you and our forum mates provides us is even better....

Roobitz, the problem is the ID of the game B have no country

Oh, that makes sense. Now I understand why my loader couldn't find the image.

I tried to edit the ID but I guess I don't have the permissions to do that. Could a moderator or admin change the ID to CKBE88?

Thanks for your help.

It's done.
The latest version of Configurable Loader and WiiFlow should be able to download the covers for those games with invalid/unknown region letters, but it's much better to just use a regular region letter because it just works for everyone.
