Hacking USB Loader GX

...
Can someone with access on the Wii.spiffy360 website make a new page with the default config files ?
TiMeBoMb made a post on pastbin, but if it's also on spiffy it will be easier to find instead of Timebomb signature.
Thanks.
...

This might be a good idea. I would REALLY like to see it on the GUI USB Loader Wiki. I've been trying to get someone to give me access to it, but everyone is ignoring me!

I believe the cd covers don't work yet

cant confirm that, using r220. standart folders.
worked fine for me with 3d images AND disc images.

Here is an Idea. Ask it as an error, paste there all the config file, and leave a comment with the link at the config wiki. What do you think? But the reason they ignore you is because (as I already said to you) it's GUI loader so config will not be needed soon. That plus theme's options are unfinished plus there is no official version out there plus they don't want people complaining and asking for things yet = they will keep ignore you until they release their own.

i am getting a code dump when i try to dl covers.

Currently, this function in the loader does not know how to create folders. You must have the necessary folders created on your sd card before trying to download covers or you will get this code dump.

If the "cover_path" variable is defined in "config.txt", the missing covers should be downloaded to this location. Currently, the covers download feature does NOT check this variable!

R220:
I thought the SFX would go off when I choose OFF in the Settings for Volume? Instead I still hear the click noise when I select a game from the menu. In reality, I think we should be able to choose to turn the sound off in the Config file (and the Settings) - because silence is golden, and I know I want the sound off even before the App starts but I still will have to go to the Settings each time.

Opps then the clicks of the optionbrowser were missed

... no big deal ... will be fixed. Besides that... why are you so obsessed with a damn config file you have to edit via PC? The gui (when finally done) save everything to a file on its own. there is no need to manipulate anything via pc. The gui will read and WRITE the config file.

I am SO excited to see the GUI write the config file!!

REGARDING DOWNLOADING COVERS
It's still not finished and it's not compatible with cover_path and disc_path options of the config.txt

For now to work, you must create the SD:/images/ and SD:/images/disc/ directories (meaning an "images" directory directly to your SD card, and a "disc" directory under that) and delete from your config.txt the cover_path and disc_path lines.

Code dumb happens when a directory that you try to download to is missing
Covers and discs don't appear after the download because non-default paths for disc and cover are set

The following is still not showing in the "Theme Settings" on the Wiki...

show_tooltip = 0 1 (0 means don't show tooltip, 1 means show tooltip)

P.S. ~ If anyone wants to know, I know how to change this variable to be in the "config.txt" file, instead of the "theme.txt" file!

Hello,
I already have googled a lot, but I can't really find a solution. I want to compile the newest loader revision on my own.
How do I do that? Is there a tutorial?

First I have to say, that I got some problems with getting and installing the "devkitProUpdater-1.4.10.exe".
During the install process the needed files should be downloaded automatically, but some files can't be downloaded.
For example devkitPPC_r16-win32-1.exe. I think anything with devkit can't be downloaded.
So I unchecked all devkitXXX files and tried to install without them. After that I tried to get all other files I need, manually.

And YES, I also checked the first site of this post, but I think "libogc-04-04-2009.zip" and "devkitPro Libraries 03-04-2009.zip" need at some other files that I can compile like at least the programmers notepad, isn't it?

Another question I have belongs to the creators of the loader: Do you plan to integrate coverflow in future?

Does anyone know where to get the needed files to compile by yourself?

Yes; You can get the needed files HERE. You will need an SVN client, like TortoiseSVN, though.

download manually the devkit files that fail from the sourceforge site that the downloader is located and place them at the same folder with the installer. then run the installer again. until you get all the files select only download to the installer. Uncheck at the installer the *ARM and the *PSP. the other are needed. After that do what they say at the first post

I get the source with this http://downloadsvn.codeplex.com/
I give it http://usbloader-gui.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ this link for the source

When devkit is installed and you have got the source, open gui.pnproj, go to tools and click make. The source must be saved under folders with no space at their names. If you want to recompile under the same directory delete the build folder, the boot.dol and the boot.elf first. That's it. Have fan.

Remove your "SD:/config/" folder completely. Then, try downloading the covers again.
Once you get the desired covers, readd your "SD:/config/" folder.
This seemed to work for MOST people.

EXACTLY the same problem here. It actually did work the first time I tried it. Then I thought, "Why don't I remove all my covers from the SD card then download them fresh so I only have the covers on there that I need".
Download hasn't worked since.
I have deleted my config folder

I am putting together a fully-layered Photoshop template of the GUI USB Loader's interfaces. Currently, I have the entire main screen made, and I'm moving on to the sub-menus. Will someone please post screenshots of the sub-menus, so I can continue?

Thanks!

Mediafire folder with dol and all the needed files

or just r221.dol and r222.dol

222: Iron out wrinkles in the volume control handling. Add new sound prototype.
221: Made the left/right on the D-button to change games in the game prompt.
220: clock freeze fixed
218+219: Added volume that controls SFX as well as BG music.

I'll add to the mediafire folder all the files linked at my site

For now to work, you must create the SD:/images/ and SD:/images/disc/ directories (meaning an "images" directory directly to your SD card, and a "disc" directory under that), delete from your config.txt the cover_path and disc_path lines and have only up to 59 images missing!

Code dumb happens when a directory that you try to download to is missing
Covers and discs don't appear after the download because non-default paths for disc and cover are set
If you are missing more than 59 images it displays "No file missing!"
