HBC update v1.1.1

Thanks. (I don't know why this isn't available directly from the GoogleCode page ... but anyway ...)
What I did notice about beta2 there was that it says at least the installed DOL files DOES get AHBPROT patched out ... but the old hacks.ini file support was removed (which I, myself, do use) so I guess take your pick.

 

Probably because the official v0.7 installer includes copy-written code from Team Twiizer's DVDx as a work around for the old HBC network init. bug.

 

I guess that could be a reasonable explanation... Good thing that bug was already fixed.

In any case, I only used the iospatch.c/h code from joedj that everyone is using to patch IOS at runtime. I didn't actually need the es_set_ahbprot patch from davebaol, since the HBC is now reloading IOS before loading an application, afaik. It should be safe as long as anyone uses it with HBC 1.1.0 or later.

 

I have seen a handful of bricks reported from the beta 2 installer. (beta 3?, not sure)

I wonder if it only blocks v54448, 54449, 54450, 54454, or if it blocks any other versions. Funny that he cares about the version, but not so much about themes. I bet it only blocks those 4 versions, not sure though.

 

He said it blocks anything outside the "vanilla range", so I assume he gave enough buffer room for a new update, but capped it at around 700 or something.
