Homebrew SaveGame Manager GX

[TheColonel]

my interpretation of his problem is that if the default directory is set to SaveGamePath = usb:/savegames/, for some reason the installations fail. But if he manually navigates to usb:/savegames/ (ie. not having it be the default directory) then the installations work.

By steps:
1. Start SGM GX (by default shows on the right side the contents of SaveGamePath)
2. I navigate through that list until I find the a (any) savegame
3. Select it and click on "Install"
4. The Installation finishes (very fast) and says it was sucessfully

I think that some of the elements that are used to generate the source path may not be fully set when application starts and no manual browsing is performed, so that the SaveInstall may be using a non-existing path (maybe SD instead of USB) assuming the default value for that path instead of the custom one I have in my config file, thus installing a "non existing" path corrupting/deleting the NAND save.

// Generate device path //
snprintf(devpath, sizeof(devpath), "%s%s%s", navinfo.CurrentDevice, browserD.dir, browserDevice[selected].filename);

Maybe adding some checks like see if file in path actually exists before advancing ?

I think this is corroborated this by going to the "parent" directory of the initial listing and instead of displaying me the contents of "usb:/" as expected it shows "sd:/" instead.

much appreciation for this app and update

makes things so much easier then the silly default way the wii does it. Lets hope the 'wii 2' has profiles so we dont have to worry about kids deleting each others saves :|

Just out of curiosity: Does Savegame Manager GX work with HW_AHBPROT yet, or does it need a cIOS still? If it still needs a cIOS, are there plans to use HW_AHBPROT in future?

That's about USB support via IOS58 & HW_AHBPROT. I am talking about removing the need for cIOS by using HW_AHBPROT for NAND access to dump the saves.

I've tried a few versions of this, and I'm using r94 installed from HBB now with the latest system menu updates.

Right on launch I've always gotten the same error message "can't get save list". I may be paraphrasing...
Anyway, your option is only "OK", but there is no way to click it, or press A, or do anything (reset or power). So I have to hold power till it's off, then power back up.

.....anyway, I've looked at the zero documentation, and there's really nothing to be said for that error. What am I supposed to be doing to make this thing work?

Happy New Year!!!

have you installed a cIOS249?

 

[gpooj]

Ah... ok, so now that I finally know what I cIOS is, I guess I'll be waiting till it doesn't need it like the people above me.

Thanks!
