I know this question has been asked before, but till now i haven't seen an answer.

What size will the 3D covers need to be when a complete widescreen theme is available?

EDIT:
QUOTEThanks bro but is it possible to have a place in the theme folder for the menu music?

I don't think its possible yet (or possible at all).

On a sidenote:
I tried to add some more sounds to it (from the system menu) but I had no success... I only had them in OGG format, and as soon as they played, the BG music stopped. it would be nice to have the "Channel Launch" sound when the gamePromptWindow pops up, the "WiiMenuRollover" when you hover a button and the "WiiMenuSelect3" when you click. if anyone could get those sounds in PCM format, I might get them working

in the wiki they start implementing a resize feature so every size thats dividable by 4 should do it. maybe to small or to big is not good so standart 176 * 248 should do it

Sorry if this is a noob question. Can anyone tell me what kind of font I can use here to compile the loader? I tried to use different fonts, some of them works but the game list cannot show properly, and some evenly can open the Loader. Thanks in advance.

The font should come with it. Did you checkout the whole thing on Google Code? Here is the font that is used by default

Yes, I know there is a default font. I just want to use some different fonts which I like more.

Actually I am tring to make it as a Chinese version. However, some fonts work just fine, but some cannot show words properly. So, I was wondering is there a limitation like 8x16 bitmap font or something I have to take care of? Thanks.

For those of you who want a forwarder, i uploaded it in here http://www.megaupload.com/?d=VEIS8D6J

It is pointed at sd:\apps\usbloader, so simply put your boot.dol in the usbloader folder, and then install the forwarder .wad on your wii.

Im not home right now, but if nescesarry i can have one ready in an hour or two

It's like a channel but it load a boot.dol on your sd
In this example , the dol is in : sdroot/apps/usbloader
So you can change this dool when you want without instal a channel every time

 

[frankomio]

what does a forwarder ?

simple answer: you can start the usbloader directly from the wii-menu, while the usbloader .dol-file is in the correct /apps/usbloader/ folder.

the benefit in comparism to a channel is, that you only need to substitute the .dol-file in the usbloader-folder if a new rev is out instead of deleteing/installin the whole channel


EDIT:
i´m too slow .....

One question:

could you make it compatible with cIOS222?

Mario Galaxy freezes with IOS249, but it works fine on IOS222 (modified by Hermes)...

Pressing the button "Change Image Size" always send you to PAL covers, even from ntsc + ntsc-j pages.

The problem is when I use this forwarder, the GUI Loader menu don't show... I ear the music, I've start a game accidentally, so the loader run but I have a black screen.

If I start the GUI Loader by the Homebrew channel, the loading is okay without problem... but with forwarder, the loader run but with a black screen.

And i've ALWAYS use forwarder... so i don't want to start the gui by the HBC...

Solution???

 

[josete2k]

Ok only change in main.cpp to load IOS222, the last modified by Hermes allows you to hot plug devices

line 93

ret2 = IOS_ReloadIOS(222);

MArio Galaxy don´t freezes and more compatible devices are supposed with cIOS222
