Ok, so with the new HBC, and it's new tid, old apps that try to load HAXX will be unusuccessful. This means the preloader .29 will not be able to autoboot to HBC. Also changed in the new HBC is the removal of the "reload" button. So now, if you have a IP address change while HBC is loaded, you must exit to the system menu and restart it to get network capabilities for HBC. here is my fix for these things.

this is just simply a dol that boots the JODI tid. i have put it in a channel with the HAXX id. this means that you will have 2 HBC channels on your system menu, so just hide this one on the back page. i think it's a small price to pay for being able to fix this little annoyance. obviously this channel will be deleted my system menu 4.2 unless it has been patched.

and to reboot HBC without exiting, just boot my dol.


EDIT>>>>>>>
Just thought about it, and telling preloader to autoboot this dol will also boot the new HBC and wont put a new channel on your system menu.

Yeah, I think somebody released an application to make hidden channels.

the hidden channels are not the right type. hidden are type 0x00010008 and the only hbc is type 0x00010001. so apps loading the HBC tell the wii to boot 0x10001/HAXX. if this was hidden(0x10008/HAXX) it wouldn't get found any easier than the new 0x10001/JODI does. It would take a patch/hack of the system menu to make it not show this channel. and i don't know too much about making those.

The only way i can think of to make this work and be hidden is to make a banner that looks like the empty channel place holders in the system menu.

Thanks for the explanation.
Well...leave the channel on the back page is not a big problem. ^^

If you just want to fix preloader and don't care about other apps, you can set my dol to autoboot from preloader. it should boot the new HBC and not put a new channel on the system menu.

just run the wad through newest wadder 3.1 beta
it has bug where it doesnt save the icon and banner
no modifying of anything necessary, simply load wad in wadder, save, and voila, you have an invisible channel
doesnt show up on wii menu, in data management it shows up as ????
however the dol functionality of channel works fine, and if you launch the channel via title launcher like in usbloader gx, the dol loads fine
finally wadder works for something

meh, i tried the wad and created a banner brick, however when i launch it through usbgx it still works as described prev
obv wadder is buggy and im not sure what its actually doing to the wads, ive tried creating various wads before with 3.1 beta and either end up with an invisible channel or banner brick. ill mess around some more and if i get a working wad as described in my previous post, ill upload it.

i tried it, too, and made a pretty wii-flavored brick. maybe it needs a different opening.bnr without animations and sound for it to not be a bricker.

    @BigOnYa I had 4.89 hfw on super slim that was great, but when I got a new hard disk I forgot where the guide was and could only find a guide for 4.90 and its resources
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa I think another reason to want to update is if the hfw is at the level of the fw
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    you can sync trophies
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea that's what I'm sitting on now- 4.9, and it seems fine, have had no issues at all
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    I don't know if people play online or such

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea forgot bout trophies. They just silly to me. Just like the xbox achievements. Hey, to each they own tho.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It keeps players in touch with the game like a check list of things to do after they beat it
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa they ruined the gaming experience for me to be honest
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa Im not crazy about getting all of them, i feel like I have something to show for for the time put in

    @BigOnYa If you want to do rgh or 360 mod
  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    does it matter if you update your 360 or not before trying is it advisable or not
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

    Going to the water park, see ya
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    You should update the 360 to newest dash before RGHing it yes. But not a big deal if you don't, you can install new dash/avatar updates after. It's just easier to do it auto online before, instead manual offline after.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Have fun @Xdqwerty. If you see a chocolate candy bar floating in the water, don't eat it!

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just like any comedies really, and cartoons have always been a favorite of mine. Family guy, American Dad, Futurama, Cleveland Show, Simpsons - I like them all.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.

  • S @ salazarcosplay:
    @BigOnYa were you always up to date on the current events and issues of the time or were there issues that you first found out thru south park
