Homebrew New Forwarders, With USB2.0 speed!

[Skater4599]

@newyears1978 - hope it works for you

On topic i've done some small tests now with the new IOS202, the forwarders do not need to be updated too, they still work. I've tested them all they all seem to be fine, Only hiccup i found was wiixplorer if you select return to loader it black screens or code dumps, return to menu still works fine. But i dont know if this has to do with wiixplorer recent updates or IOS202. Can anyone else reproduce this with older IOS202 or new one as well?

Also looks like my snes9xgx is code dumping when you pull up the save/load menu inside a game, again i dont know if this is cause of the update or new IOS202.

It worked! Thanks, works perfectly now, reads USB on bootup with the forwarder also.

Also on topic, thanks for the forwarder, love it!

Okay now it's not working again.

Same thing as before...it worked yesterday..today I come home and it doesn't work. It keeps saying it can't find the USB drive...

Thats all for now, WiiFlow one will have to wait, it gets additional treatment

Hey Skater4599,

Did you ever post your modified source for the usb2 forwarder anywhere 'cause I'd like to get a copy to create my own for WiiFlow, if you please...

(I'd also like to remove any sd card checking and head directly to the usb drive for my personal use...)

THANKS!

I did actually send my modified source but im actually changing some things around atm, if all you want is a forwarder to wiiflow you can easily use wiimc's without any issues for now. My wiiflow one is almost done, With Miigotu's help I've added the passing of arguments from nforwarder so you can now use the wiimote to load wiiflow with different IOS's, and I made a nice splash based on spayrosams "Welcome to WiiFlow" one. Its currently working 100% but i wanted to optimize a few things. Some people have actually been dl'ing it from the dev wiiflow google page where its stored and self compiling/handing out dols before its done... not to happy about that... At any rate it will be out soon, I actually started making a new wiiflow channel with new graphics matching the new icon.png as a default, for all of us default theme users, since other themes have there own matching channels

But my time is limited atm, my work has changed.

Hello!! Could i do a request? pleaseeee

Now im using priiloader to autoboot into usbloader and its fantastic and fast to play, however its a little bit anoing because when i want to go to system menu or hbc its a problem for me

(because priiloader reboot into usbloader again and again...)

I was thinking about a forwarder with diferents options (for ex hbc, system menu, Usbloader, Uloader) depending of the presset botton (or default)
There are thread about something similar:
This one?

I tried to modify it, but ... obviouslly without coding knoledge is dificult... (well its supposed just to change a path)


And well... to load HBC is supposed to be:

The 4 letter one yeah (¯Õ)

Never mind... The thing is randomly generated and it won't accept it as a valid ID.
No its not randomly generated, and title IDs are not 4 letters. ASCII representations of title IDs are 4 letters. The actual title ID is 8 (well, 16 if you count the 00010002 part, which just defines it as a channel essentially) hex digits. And it is, for latest HBC, 0xaf1bf516. So the full thing for the above code would be:

CODEWII_LaunchTitle(0x00010002af1bf516ULL); //Change this line to title ID

I was thinking in a splash similar to:

Thanks in advance

Actually i think i can do this, I can get it to recognize the button presses easily, I just have to figure out the commands to launch new HBC and SM from priiloader (im guessing i can find that in its own source code) But my time is very limited at this time, But i will give it a go for you. Which USB loader aside from uloader do you want for UP? Wiiflow?

 

[sr_corsario]

Ouu nice! Thanks!!

I use Uloader and Configurable Usb-loader.

sd:/apps/uloader/boot.dol
usb:/apps/uloader/boot.dol

sd:/apps/usbloader/boot.dol
usb:/apps/usbloader/boot.dol

 

[Skater4599]

I started this today, I got all the apps working based on which button is being pushed and it works great, only thing i cant get working is loading the HBC, code above did not work for me, it reset to the SM. Priiloader source code on google code has not been updated so i cant see how they did it, Once thats done I will post it here for you along with source for anyone else interested, it would be VERY easy to make/add new paths/button combos etc with it. All with same benefits like USB 2.0 etc

Todo:
Make new splash
Fix loading HBC
Code cleanup/optimizations

any screens?

 

[sr_corsario]

Wonderfull!! im very excited!! thanks a lot!!

On the cfg thread:

30-07-2010 cfg v57b9 (beta9)
* Added ID of 1.07 HBC to launch functions. (Clipper)
* Allowed hex values for options that can specify a channel ID
so the new HBC is supported. Value for HBC 1.07 is AF1BF516. (Clipper)

any screens?

Hmm im not really sure what kind of screens you want? Its jut a forwarder no full GUI or something to show off. It should be done soon though anyway (I hope) so anyone can have it if they want

This is not a channel, its a dol forwarder for use with priiloader so it needs no banners/icon etc. You could however use this with a channel, in which case i would just have it point to different apps (Emulators for example) and you could easily add more than 4 different options

 

[Skater4599]

@ sr_corsario - If no button is held, Where do you want it to auto load too?

Well, for me, it will be nice to autoload Cfg Usbloader, however on the "old" thread, the "multiforwarders" used a config file (on sd or usb device) in order to change the default option easylly.


About the splash... my friend is still out with a girl ¬¬ probably will arrive tired xD but will do it.

Thanks
