Hacking Modified Backup Launcher! - Gamma

[Forsaekn]

Same deal as last time, updated for gamma.
See post here for original 0.3b autoboot.

This modified build will now automatically boot directly into the game, unless you are holding '1' down on either the wiimote during launch. This will enter the configuration menu where you can change Language, Force TV Signal type, change Hooktype, enable Ocarina, etc.
Usage: Hold '1' during launch to enter boot configuration menu.
NOTE THIS CHANGE

Changes from 0.3b:
- Button to enter configuration changed
- Full menu is displayed
- Autoboots ~3 seconds quicker

UPDATE: for those of you who want to keep the original channel art (from 0.3b)
download: http://www.mediafire.com/file/2akjb20w2lz/..._gamma_orig.zip

The archives include the dol, modified sourcecode, and a Channel WAD created by me. (Banner image was created by shadowmoses and altered by djtaz, Icon images and sound by myself)
NOTE: make sure you still install the CIOS before using the backup launcher, or it will not work regardless of where you run it from.

Enjoy!

Could you add "Hold 2 for rebooter" or something?

The speed at which all of these updates are showing up completely dazzle me. Thank you!!

Any way to like press 2 or A or B to auto reboot with Hook (as if you went in, and pressed B)?

That would be nice as well... but if not possible, that's cool too...

I could, but at the moment all of my energy is going into finishing up my cSM for alpha testing. The custom system menu currently boots games from the disc channel without any reboot necessary, so autobooting with hook would be obsolete within a matter of days.

it also reads gamecube backup discs, but those cannot be played at the moment because MIOS needs to be patched (retail pressed discs are playable and still work normally). Full region free system, recovery menu, no copy flag bit removed, and the disc channel can be moved around among other features ive listed a bunch of times already

Stay tuned.

Ok, I vote for patching MIOS first!! Everyone else is loading from the disc menu, you should totally just crack the hell out of MIOS so you'd be the first to do it, and I would love you in that special way that only one man can love another man... just don't tell my wife, lol

jaj im not gonna be childish but will you release today or tommorrow or somwere in the furure ... cause your csm looks great !

Like right now, my wii is sporting cSM v0.2a and its pretty much like having a modchip, without physically having one installed. Backups read and boot just like retail pressed discs.

 

[Darknesss]

Err, if its a custom system menu, is it built on top of the system menu, or is it an actual built from the ground up custom menu?

Once bootmii is released we will no longer be tied to the Wii's System menu, and the real fun begins

 

[littleshinobi520]

it is not working for me. when i go to the homebrew channel and click on the installer i press load and nothing happens. please help me i realy want to play some cod5

are you still busy with the installer or is it already coded

Im shooting for tonight/tomorrow for testing (handing it out to a few people Ive already been in contact with) and after they give the thumbs up i'll release the first revision to the public. It all depends though if this last feature im implementing gives me trouble or not, but that's my ballpark answer for you.

And the installer isnt quite finished yet, but its not hard. im distributing the alpha to testers in wad form though for convenience.
Also it is a complete system menu replacement.

Im open for testing if you need anyone else

I already have 20+ 1:1 discs burned that boot perfectly through rebooter with gamma.

 

[Luriden]

Rebooting with hooks doesn't work for me. I get a black screen when going back to the menu after pressing B.

 

[nicksasa]

hehe i have 30 + XD

 

[nicksasa]

forsaekn : im really impressed that you could make a csm in such a short time !

 

[joker86]

how hard would it be to remove the "press 1 for menu" text from the channel guys

i really like the channel however it would confuse the kids

any advice or anyone willin to rip it out for me

would be well obliged

Odd, it works fine for me through both the channel and HBC. it only back screened on me once, i'll try to see which settings causes this, if any at all (might just be a random bug in gamma).

Update:Tried every possible combination of reboot options, couldnt get it to black screen on me again. Might be a random bug with homebrew, because every so often WAD manager does the same thing.

I've been working on it for well over a month now

without the luxury of BootMii, i have to triple check my work to make sure I dont accidently brick myself during development.
