Homebrew postLoader4

Hey stfour the new DML menu in the test version 3.56 looks great, but why is copying from usb to sd very slow?

 

[stfour]

It is the sd "interface" to be slow (ogc software implementation or hardware, I don't known).

 

[AbdallahTerro]

In Wii Game mode all the games are faded too!
only games in ngc folder should look as such not wbfs folder.

And when you game to DML game delete menu the menu is still displayed after pressing the B button
Maybe this can fixed in next release too

 

[stfour]

Ok !

 

[AbdallahTerro]

Is there a way to allow DML games to run whith no disc inserted?

not at this point, unless there is a hack for the gamecube.( lid closed).. thats why a disk is needed. to fake the wii in to thinking the lid is closed.

Wiiflow and cfg-usb-loader method of displaying games looks great, Is there any plans to do a similar thing with postloader or are we keeping the (Triiforce-Mighty Channel) like 2d display?

 

[stfour]

No, actually there is no plan for that.

ok when i selected a game thats on my usb does nothing for me.

mmm... I think I found the bug...

You've asked this question like 100 times now in different threads...

postLoader 3.56.1

* added a lot of additional checking and perfcounter for filesystem function (copy etc...)
* corrected game icon dimming for wii mode
* dml: fixed a bug that was preventing the installation of a new game from usb if there was enough space (thx hellboy2010)
* dml: copy process can be interrupted (this may need some more work...)

notes: ngc iso (already converted with DiscEX) must be copied in usb://ngc folder (primary FAT32 part).
postLoader will take care to copy to sd://games when required
Games icon from usb games are dimmed. Copying process is slow (1750 kb/s on my sd)
If there is no space on sd, postLoader will ask to delete some games.

Hi stfour,

Another minor thing (mainly cosmetic). I notice that channels and games are sorted alphabetically by default. However the way the sorting currently works has those games who have titles in lower case are listed after those with uppercase letters. In my opinion it would be better to have the gorups mixed together (so the sort is just case-insensitive). It doesn't really make sense to me to have 'de Blob' stuck at the very end of a list of games after Zak and Wiki, say. The same sorting into two groups (one uppercase and one lower) occurs in both games and channels view. Not sure about homebrew or GC views. Of course, this sorting could be by design but it feels a bit weird.

gc games show up for me on real nand but not neek2o....now I wish there was a way to convert gc games to fst on the wii since i have no pc anymore and like 80 gc games in regular iso.......

As usual you are right !

Actually, if postloader had a coverflow i prolly use it ALL the time, now i only use it if i have to, for example to get to my homebrew...

 

[AbdallahTerro]

Thanx Etheboss

 

[shortz1994]

postloader is fine the way it is. it's not to confusing for my little ones who play (complected). an it works..some times too much of a good thing is bad.
this is great work stfour. you guys what coverflow use one of the loaders(usb).

 

[stfour]

I've so much thing in the todo list that talking about a coverflow display is impossible even if I make the decision to implement it. Maybe in the future... but I really prefer pl3 display mode, it's simple but very immediate. imho obviusly.
