Also, I wasn't sure if this was a bug or something you intended so I will ask before I go switching everything around. Does the loader .dol NEED to be on SD to load Wii games? When I choose USB Loader GX as my default loader the I pick a game to play, it says .dol not found on SD? Could it be on USB or should I switch it to SD?
 
Stfour,
I don't think before I speak (type). I would like to appreciate all you have done with PL4. My children LOVE it and so do I. So when I come out with stupid "ideas" like folder browsing, I never stop to think that it is not that easy to do, don't pay attention to me, so thank you.

Should be found also on usb... after the message does it start ?

how do you run games wbfs on ntfs?

Please specify....

Postloader need loaders (cfg, gx, wiiflow or neek2o only for FAT) to be installed on sd or usb...


 
The message pops up and something like dol not found on SD and gives me an "OK" icon. I push it and it just stays at the wii games, nothing happens.

I would like to appreciate the fact the your (possibly FIX94's as well) VBAGX dol loads my games. The actual emulator does not work for me. So thanks yet again!
 
Thank you very much for all your work with postLoader4. It's really appreciated.

Having said that, I've discovered a few bugs in b14. :) It doesn't seem that filtering works on the Channel/Wiiware page; specifically, on my usb://nands/pln2o/ I have it set to filter out "Standard Channels" and HAAA, the Photo Channel, etc still show up. Also, I've noticed that your sort algorithm is a little broken. Specifically, it always seems to swap the first and last item of each group; so, I have "zerace" as the first item and "3D Maze" as the last item on the Homebrew page. :)

Also, out of a bit of curiosity, do you intend to include support for cover support for gxgeo, mame, scummvm, or wiiengine in the future? I presume that that'd be a good bit of work to maintain, so I can understand being reluctant to do so. I would say, I do like the idea of folder browsing so one can have subfolders for roms and perhaps even a "root" folder for different systems, but another idea would be some sort of tab option to switch between emulators. As it stands, I know it's a little confusing having them all mashed together. And having some sort of tab to swap between Wii/GC games makes a little more sense than having a separate button at the top like its its own separate page; by that, I mean it's confusing that selecting Wii swaps what "up" jumps to and that's non-obvious--other than that, I really like having the autohiding top/bottom toolbars as I think those are more obvious overall. :/

Whatever you think is best, I'm sure will be good. I'm just throwing out ideas.
 
Im also wondering what site that postloader gets these images from?

Also is it possible to order wii games using the wiitdb.xml because my wii games are named by region code so they are not actaully alphabetical.

Lastly, when I try to change uneek nand I get a message saying:

Cannot open sd://ploader/plneek.dir

UNEEK nands folder must be in usb://nands

Or plneek.dol isn't in sd root
or priibooter.dol isnt updated (0,0)

Yes, it is possible that sorting is broken... this lead also to the problem of hiding something... I will check soon !

Thanks for your report !

It check http://www.postloader.freehosting.com (this will be removed soon as most of the time is down) and gametdb... but I'm seeing now they changed name convention.

you need to install priibooter_gui in priiloader to make this work... that missing file is generated by priibooter_gui.

on uneek nand or real annd
 
on uneek nand or real annd

on real nand you need priibooter_gui to access to all functionality of postloader (it will manage nands/startup your hdd/execute postloader/system menu/hbc and neek2o without the needing of sd)
on uneek you neek neekbooter (to boot channels/games directly from real nand using neek2o)

note that it a long time I don't test original uneek/sneek... lately I only work with neek2o
 
Yes, this can be done... actually you install it from pl directly, but you have to be in neek2o...
 
Can someone help me I still get the message even after I installed the priibooter_gui in priiloader? Also when I run neek the wii dvd disk just blinks blue. I already put my nand in a sub folder of usb://nands

Also anyway to force tv signal because when I try to run a pal game from my emu nand on my real nand I get a invalid format on my tv. Basically anyway to force NTSC? The pal channel works fine on my us emu nand.
 
Pressing (B) on a game will bring you an option menu... You have to select "Normal boot method" or "Load apploader" to have access to hacks...

About pribooter_gui, it is showing when wii turn on ?
