Hacking NSMBW Mod ISO Builder v1.00

[oji]

Ok, latest available version:

1. Two fails of autodetect base iso (third is ok):
   You have a base image that is unknown by autodetect.
   date/time stamp is:
   YYYY/MM/DD HH:NN:SS
   New Sue:r
   The filename is:
   Press any key to continue . . .
2. Still doubles list of available mods
3. Successfully starts download process (Awesomer Super Luigi Mini link seems to be broken, have asked author to fix it)

 

[CaseyOmah]

Okay, that's an issue I haven't seen, that I can fix. I need to ensure that code lines are numbers.
It's trying to find a plugins\New_Super.BASE that's why you're getting that error. Probably causing issues with the menu too, give me the debug from the end and I can verify.

Updated to ignore non-numeric codes.

 

[oji]

Base detection still the same. Mod list now fails:

================================NSMBW Mod Select===============================
Unxepected appearance: &.

 

[CaseyOmah]

Umm, I did bad, give me a sec...

I figured out what the problem is, I optimized and in doing so forgot to support spaces in base image names.... I'm going to need to overhaul detection.

Okay, restart command prompt and test the latest version, I fixed LFN detection.

Version 1.06 (currently pre-1.06, 1.05+) is designed to be run by double-clicking on it, but debug disappears on close, should I put a pause at the end of debug so as to have it not disappear on double-click?

 

[oji]

Now it's working with no errors up to end of selection: check for update, detect base image, list mods & download selected modification. then just quits with unexpected appearance of "echo.."

if it helps to you to get debug from others you should add pause.

 

[CaseyOmah]

Current version will download (and extract?) on the Install process, making it able to install supporting mods, ones that have a base folder I need to add another line to make that work.

oji Thank you for keeping your base name long, I renamed mine to base names (USAv1.wbfs/EURv1.wbfs) and wouldn't have found that error without you pointing it out.

BTW: How many/which bases are you using?

Install is done.

 

[oji]

I've used only one base, USAv1, as I've no other images. Maybe MassiveRican could help to test other regions.

Latest build downloads mod, extracts data and asks me to delete archive.

 

[CaseyOmah]

Then you'll like the autobase feature I'm putting in, if the game only supports one of the bases you have then you don't have to select base.

Base image select menu done, when updating also grab the PLGs again, small cleanup there.

EDIT: Actually, you can wait until I finish slot selection, I'm going to need to add code to the PLGs then too, the current update is just a cleanup.

 

[oji]

Works well up to the declared point.

 

[CaseyOmah]

For save slot (ID6) It would be easier to put alternate (KMNx = Newer, KMDx = Cannon, KMAx = Another, KMSx = Summer Sun, KMHx = Holiday, KMEx = Epic Super Bowser, KMRx = Retro Remix) as option 4 when available and and S, K and Manual as 1-3, what do think about for order?

 

[oji]

I think it's normal as an alternate isn't always accessible and should be the last one (at least by the coding simplicity reason) while 3 other options should be ordered by the usage frequency.

 

[CaseyOmah]

KMN is the same as "K", so I'm making Newer Alt be KMW.

Another feature to test is the PLG filenames can be changed to your liking so long as you keep the extension .PLG

I'm thinking about patching 1.05 for PLG format real quick, anybody interested?

 

[oji]

Maybe it's better to focus on the new version? 1.05 will be dismissed sooner or later so why waste your time on it?

 

[CaseyOmah]

It would be a test bed for the plugins I'm converting now, but I do see your point.

Also changed my mind on a feature, base menu will not list how many mods you have that work with it, instead, base menu will always be dependent on the selected mod.

Slot menu finished, update ALL plugins, BASE and PLG changes.

Please, abuse the Edit button instead of posting multiple times.
If nobody answered after you, edit your post to add content.
Thanks.

 

[CaseyOmah]

Cyan Will do.
Main menu done, Processing not active yet.

 

[MassiveRican]

k about to update again, and going to try it out now, had to much crap to do this w/e. I only have USAv1 to test with but it wouldn't be difficult to get my hands on a EURv1 ISO. Post results in a moment.

EDIT: Got through most of it with no problem, however I'm now stuck here:

Spoiler

================================Review Settings================================
Selected NSMBW Mod: Cannon SMBW
Selected Base Version USAv1 (SMNE01 New Super Mario Bros. Wii - NTSC.wbfs)
Selected Output filetype: WBFS
Selected Save Slot (ID6): KMN1
Download Custom Banner: No
Use Banner: Default
===============================================================================
1. Yes, continue
-- No, change settings --
2. Change Mod
3. Change Base
4. Change Filetype
5. Change ID6
6. Change Banner Options
X. Exit NSMBW Mod ISO Builder 1.05

=============================Is this selection okay?===========================
Enter Number and press Enter:

Regardless if I push "1" or not it does not allow me to continue. Whether I use a default ID6 or a custom one (which by the way doesn't seem to input the entire custom ID in this case I chose KMN11 just to mess with it but it only shows KMN1) it doesn't let me get past this point for now.

EDIT2: Attempting to d/load Newer SMBW has an issue. It will not d/load and is an infinite loop of this:

I'm having a social night tonight, looks like your problem may be having an old version, try re-download and report back, as I said, this is my working folder, so it's possible to get half-updates. I'll start working on it again tomorrow (probably night)

P.S. I'll look into the report anyway.

 

[MassiveRican]

No prob enjoy your night

 

[CaseyOmah]

MassiveRican Main menu is expected behavior, install is a left over debugging echo on, and apparently Newer isn't downloading correctly, need to put more checks in install. Like I said, tomorrow (prob. night)
