thanks for the icons.
I don't like the "homebru" icon, because it's feels like it's missing some letters but I guess maybe homebreU would look bad too.
Maybe just go with the full name and the icon.

Homebrew U                Homebrew |  |

    Launcher        or    Launcher \_/

But again, it's not called "homebru" or "homebrew launcher U".
not everything on wiiU need to be called "U" or "iine".

I'll let dimok tell us what he think about the submitted icons too.

1) Loadiine launches games, or if you talk about the exploit itself it launched a single elf file located in loadiine gx2 folder and named loadiine_gx2.elf
You would have to replace your elf file everytime if you want to launch another homebrew.

Homebrew launchers launches multiple homebrew with a single exploit. you don't need to reboot and visit multiple different URLs for every games or tools you want to launch.
one exploit URL which load the homebrew launcher, from here you can run all homebrew directly from the SD card (offline) and exit back to the launcher without the need to reboot to launch another homebrew.

2) Success rate is the same as before, as the current released exploit is always the same kernel exploit (the race attack).
And yes, it means you don't need to re-launch the exploit again to switch game or homebrew, just one exploit for all your session.

3) It could be offline, if you cache the exploit page.
then the exploit would launch even without internet, just open the browser which display the cached file.
Attention, on next exploit update it will still load the cached one instead of the updated one.

@ all users:
I don't know why the loadiine gx2 didn't work.
I haven't tested it myself, maybe dimok used a recompiled version specifically for HBL.
if that's the case, loadiine will be updated soon to make it compatible.

@vgmoose;
For other coding related questions, I'll let dimok answer them.

 

all current exploit are based on the browser, and you need to be online.
so you need online for the homebrew launcher, then you can run homebrew from your card without online anymore.

if you manage to keep the exploit page in the browser cache, you can run it offline.

 

I don't know how to tell the browser to keep something in cache. maybe that's only temporary until console shutdown? in that case, it's not useful.
