Sorg released another USB Loader that addresses if you deleted a game, and add another game, it would corrupt some games (overwriting data areas where existing games reside on the hard drive)...

QUOTE said:
Update v1.11:
1) games now can be marked as deleted instead actual remove. I made this feature because of bug in WBFS (i couldn't find where it is exactly). If you will remove games and add new one then some of previously uploaded games will become corrupted. So, if you will just mark game as deleted, it will disappear from list, but still will occupy space. It will prevent corruption. With big HDD, this is not a big problem.
2) added options for Video mode setting. It can be "System Default", "Game Default" or "Patch Game (force system default mode for import games)". Some PAL games not working before (Naruto Rev2, Gravity), now are working on my NTSC Wii with 3rd video mode.
3) added option to patch Language. (Make sure that game really has this language).
4) these two options will be saved in HDD along with game. SD card is not required. Settings can be changed only in Full version of loader. Simple version will use these settings but won't able to change.
5) if loader has been started from HBC, then it will return to HBC through button "Home". Otherwise will return to Wii Menu.
6) Source code has been redesigned very much. I made attempt to convert "basic" code to object code. Also, converted from C to C++ for easier programming I've took some code from SoftChip repository as better implementation of some functions.
7) not important, but loader now can be operated by NGC controller as well.
8) changed graphics in simple version
9) Fixed channel graphics. No more "????" in channel options. 2 versions included for screens 16x9 and 4x3 (to make disk picture circle).


archive includes:
1) source code with my modifications
2) folder to use in Homebrew Channel (full and simple)
3) Channel version of this loader in WAD format (full and simple, 16x9 and 4x3).

No Orcania or Covers, as they require a SD card.

P.S: I know there are some versions are floating around with ocarina patch engine and covers. Even based on my mod
But i don't think it's worth to have. Especially, both features required SD card presence.
Anyway, i've provided full source code. If somebody want to change it then go on. Just let me know as you release your mod.

SD cards are like $10 for 2GB nowadays... small price to pay for Covers + Orcania support.

Gambia, The
Source look really clean.
But I experienced some code dumps. Maybe that's cos I installed and removed isos repeatably on the WBFS Partition. I'm going to format and reinstall some isos to test.

That's not true.


IE in combo with AVG, Norton does not pick it up. You can say it's not true, but after this has been downloaded several times, it's going to come up. Watch this thread, and you'll see I'm right. Why would you use this site? Scolor, you may have not put the virii there, but why did you post it on some other person's site? It's a hijacked site, right?

Sorry for not comprehending but you said that games can't be deleted with this program. You said that the game is removed from the list but still occupies HD space. What is the point of this?

There is no virus on that site. -.-

I use Firefox + AVG and no virus.

Because when you delete a game, the next game that you add is corrupted.

So there's the "mark as deleted" trick

    I wonder if that was the point of game streaming
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But it's a dead end
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
