Homebrew [RELEASE] Environment Loader

[Maschell]

What is the Environment Loader?

Environment Loader allows you load environments on your Wii U.

Usage

This is a payload that should be run with CustomRPXLoader.

Put the `payload.rpx` in the `sd:/wiiu/` folder of your sd card and use the `CustomRPXLoader` to run this setup payload, hold X on the Gamepad while loading to force open the menu.

This payload checks for enviroments in the following directory: `sd:/wiiu/environments/`.

Example file structure for having a `tiramisu` and a `installer` environment on the sd card:

sd:\wiiu\environments\tiramisu\modules\setup\00_mocha.rpx
sd:\wiiu\environments\tiramisu\modules\setup\01_other_cool_payload.rpx
sd:\wiiu\environments\installer\modules\setup\00_mocha.rpx
sd:\wiiu\environments\installer\modules\setup\01_installer_launcher.rpx

When you start the EnvironmentLoader a selection menu appears. Use Y on the Gamepad to set a default enviroment.
To open the selection menu when a default enviroment is set, hold X on the Gamepad while launching the EnvironmentLoader.

When launching an given enviroment, all `.rpx` files in `[ENVIRONMENT]/modules/setup` will be run.
- Make sure not to call `exit` in the setup payloads
- The files will be run in the order of their ordered filenames.

Hi Maschell!

The link to the Nightlies: https://tiramisu.foryour.cafe/package/environmentloader isn't good anymore.

I've found a small "bug" in the Environment Loader, more precisely, when you install the payloader:
Supposing just before, you had the "update" folder deleted already on your wiiU, installing the payloader recreated the "update" folder, so it relaunch the warning that the Wiiu might update again, just after the installation of the payloader, you have to go back bypass the warning and go back in UFDiine and suppress the update Folder again. This is a kind of bug to me.


@ LeTeckGas I've sent you a msg!

Thanks for the hint with outdated link. Updated it.

The "update" folder thing is not related to the Installer. During standby the Wii U (tries to) updates and in this process restores the update directory. Instead of deleting the update directory, create a file "update" should prevent the OS from restoring it. Unfortunately old Autoboot Module version fails to recgonize a "update" file as blocking updates which would confuse many people, this is why we didn't update ufdiine yet.

 

[mrmagicm]

Oh, ok, so it Ufdiine the problem somewhere...Is there no way to work around this?
Maybe instead of deleting the update directory with Ufdiine, do the "opposite", create a update directory with no possibility to download in it and called it "lock/Unlock" update directory.....Just an idea ;-)
Also, I was wondering, would recent tiramisu update have make some wiiu channel forwarders not working? (or is it because they are not updated anymore?), HBL2HBC forwarder for example doesn't seems to work anymore.
