could you change the download revision="ff00" to use version numbers like revision="3091" in the config file or would it mean lots of app code re-writes

Maybe a choice so you can install a cIOS to any slot 200 or above (except 204) So you can have like waninkoko's rev7 cIOS installed in slot 234 for 1:1 disc dumping through wifi etc...
What exactly is wrong with slot 204? It's an empty slot...at least on my wii.

I could see being able to install several versions of cIOS as being handy. As for it being useful, quite a few apps still don't have IOS selectors in them...they're stuck with something like IOS36 or IOS249.

QUOTENo point in a GUI or music because you will only be using this programme once on each wii.
This could be used more than once. Say you do a mod now, then want to add something later...you could just run it again and use the advanced options to install it.

It's already done for v3;) ( Take me 1hour to fully rewrite the xml but adapting the app code wasnt so long (10min lol) é_è)
All title will be on 16hex digit and the revision on decimal.
 
The only suggestion I can think of would be to also patch IOS 70 with trucha and add a cMIOS installer.
 
Ok, thank you. I like your suggestions. I was affraid because generally we receive a tons o stupid suggestions, but your ideas are very good.

@Slimmmmmm :
- A clean option => Ok
- More apps => you will be able to do that with custom tasks. There will be an example for loader GX
- A winform (WPF designer is easy to do with framework 4.0) app to create the xml => Very good idea. We can add this in our todo list. But i think we wont include that into V3 (not enough time).
- A wii scanner (csv log) => good idea, but we need to analyse how we can incorperate it. Perhaps in futre versions

@techboy:
- A gui => under construction, i don't know when it will be finished (in fact, this is only to test our gui framework, because this isn't very usefull for sciifii

)
- A music player => can be done, but with a very low priority

@mattjd:
- Hackmii => this can be done, but this isn't our priority too. Perhaps we will add this in v3, perhaps not

@longtom1:
- revision number in decimal, not hexa => this is already developped for V3

@techboy:
- Choose cios slot => already developped for v3 (only because we will include hermes cios). This isn't very usefull to pout waninkoko cios in an other slot: a lot of app won't be compatible.

@Dr. Hobo:
- Patching the IOS70 => why doing this? What about error 003? Why not using our corp item?
- Installing cmios => We are working on it.


So there is a lot of suggestion here

I will update the first post. Thanx
 
Can it be added to install weather channel etc. and also maybe delete them?

Not everyone wants CORP, especially if they have a new wii where it's useless due to a D3-2 drive.

Glad to hear this one is being included. I can't stand having to use windows calc to convert them to hex.

Keep up the good work guys! Can't wait for v3.

Yeah, I'm not big into CORP, and I also suggested it so that people could run installed wads from the system menu/sd card menu. And I've never looked into error 003, that's the error when a Korean wii is changed right? And if so, didn't they find a fix for that?

It occurs when you update a region change Korean Wii to 4.2
You can prevent it by installing IOS60 in the slot of IOS70 (cause IOS60 does not have the correct code to brick it, unlike IOS70 for some reason)
The IOS70 of cIOSCORP 3.6 is actually IOS60, so like I said installing it will prevent the 003 error.

To Dr. Hobo and techboy:

i havent said "you must install the corp", i've said "Why not using our corp item".

The corp item can also patch only one ios if you remove others ios from the xml file....

But nevermind. There will be an ios patcher in v3.
 
Oh, I didn't know you could use the xml to only have CORP patch one IOS. But having an IOS patcher built into Sciifii would be really nice and more noob friendly. Thanks for taking our suggestions!
 
In fact, this is the real goal of sciifii (The noob proof installer is just a way of using it). We want an app than can do everithing

You just need to modify the xml. But your suggestion show us that there is a lack of documentation around sciifii.

We will create a beautifull pdf for the v3

Edit: we will open a bug tracking tool soon. You will be able to post our prs/suggestion here.
 
A way for it to auto dect what you have installed already. Than list recommend/compatible items to install. Doesn't have to have the ability to actually install items on said list.
 
Perhaps we will have a preparation phase to detect what is mandatory and what isn't. But this is very dificult because we can't really test all features (we can just do some suposition. For exemple, if the ios249 version isn't ffff, it should be a waninkoko cios).

We have rewritten a lot of code. I will update my first post.
 
how is the v3 projct going , is it still alive ?
there are no post here after 4th march that why i''m asking
very interested in v3 with hermes support as i''m using ntfs :-)
