Hacking USB Loader GX

[Patryc]

Hey guys, I made my first channel... muhahahaha
link is in youtube description

Should be in high quality in a few minutes.

USA only?

 

[BlindDude]

great, i like this... nice work.
You can use also this .dol forwarder (to apps/GUILoader/boot.dol)
GUILoader.dol

Please, I want this channel.

thanks

EDIT)what is that dol? is that the guiloader? I dont know how to make forwarders,, I need the forwarder.dol or a channel that has the forwarder in there... I think.

I can try to make the forwarder,, Only reason I stopped where I was and didnt make the channel better was that I have MAJOR problems with wadder, the program that I am using to do this..The program just SHUTS off on me ALL THE TIME.. So it is VERY difficult to get even just ONE channel compiled.. Its a drag really.
check this out,, I go through this until it finally works... It took me 12 hours just to get that channel through wadder.




QUOTE(Patryc @ May 9 2009, 11:56 AM) USA only?

Yes, for the time being.. like I mentioned, it is really hard to keep the program from crashing,, it only crashes while replacing images... so in the wad file there is a bunch of different language images and the only ones I edited are the "english" ones. So if you have a different reagion wii than english, the original wads pictures will show up and NOT look at all like the vid,,, I hope to update as soon as i figure a way to get the program more stable.



EDIT,,, Hmm I tried something new with wadder,, since it seems to close on me if I paused for the slightest moment, I started up Prime95 and left that running when working with wadder.. It still closed on me but not NEARLY as much... Memery Leak Anybody? lol

anyway,, here is the ALL region channel.. PLEASE can non USA wii owners try this out and report back?

r307 dol, elf and complete changelog
at http://tinyurl.com/usbloader-gui

or just the r307.dol at my Mediafire folder where every upload goes
or ddl mirror thx to deakphreak -> http://wii.spiffy360.com/getfile.php?rev=64

*Moved everything from config.txt to automatically created save file

306+307: *Little fix
305:ÂÂÂÂ *Moved everything from config.txt to global_settings.cfg
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ *Added cover/discimage/theme path edit through global settings
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ *Changed if no password is set, you are always godmode (even after reloading GUI).
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ If you have password set: the unlock is only till you leave.

People who cant load the loader or having some troubles
they should try to use .ELF
since .ELF is a lot more accurate in processing code​

 

[Meannekes]

maybe im wrong but this is a thread about the USB Iso Loader GUI by dimok,nIxxx,cyrex et al ....?

so pls post your channel in a other thread, open a new USB Loader Channel thread or whatever.

thx

btw. rev307 no config.txt (since rev305)

 

[moose94]

rev307 working smooth... great job everyone!

 

[Patryc]

BlindDude your non-USA channel works fine.. Thanks!

 

[marinos35]

Up to 304 i think, usbloader was crashing when using Wiiload or a forwader I compiled by altering a bit the one from spacejump.

Now no more crashing. I don't know what exactly changed but 307 rocks!!!!!

Just select what you want through the settings and it's saved.

Cover / DiscImage / Theme Path are now limited in the number of characters..... so no long path names

Not strictly true... longer pathnames were possible in config.txt

 

[marinos35]

that's true, longer but not unlimited

report it as a problem of too short

and themes? How are they defined?

 

[marinos35]

covers-discs-themes works the same way
Just keep your directories short

like
SD:/usbloader/3dcov/ (the maximum length for now which is 20)
SD:/usbloader/discC/ (c for custom

)
SD:/usbloader/discO/ (O for original)
SD:/usbloader/t/1/ (for theme 1)
SD:/usbloader/t/2/ (for theme 2...)

Nice namings are also
SD:/data/gui/....../ (which leaves 6 char for folder's name)
SD:/gui/........../ (10 char)

use your imagination

Something i still didnt understood..im sorry.
Where are they set? in the config.txt?
how it is?
theme = sd:\themes\t1\?

 

[sleeepy2]

hmm.
308 is freezing for me. loads the default back ground and nothing else. have to power off the wii. no buttons work or the rest...
last one that I had worked fine 298 I think or maybe 300. don't remember

 

[D34DL1N3R]

Revision: r308

Log message

....Added options for every possibility of flip x to finally end the requests.

Thank you!

 

[icebrg5]

So is a config file need anymore? since the global one now saves automatically?

Or do we still need it to define the images path and themes path?

 

[IlluminiX]

I am using R308 (Wiigirl theme

)and here is what I notice:

1) Tooltips set to be off in settings - still see them.

2) Prompts & Buttons Widescreen setting does not save upon next boot of loader

3) I don't understand what the difference is between the Flip X settings. Seems like Left/Prev = Like SysMenu = Right/Next and Right/Prev is the opposite. I am sure there is a reason, but I don't see it.

Everything else seems to work well! Thanks!
