Hacking USB Loader GX

[luck_gh0st]

also , couldn't someone just theme over the SDCard icon if they didn't want it?

 

[IlluminiX]

Is there a way to get rid of the SD card image. Just makes the screen look too cluttered. Needs to a something in the Config.txt file for add/remove or needs to be an option in settings.

Finally! Someone else who agrees with me and is willing to speak up! Anyone else concur?

Is there any reason why this code dumps when ran from a usb forwarder channel?

some forwarders aren't compatible

I agree as well IlluminiX

I don't think the button will even be used by 1% let alone 10%.
And something like this is not a main menu item.
I see what the programers are going for, emulating the Wii Menu, as the default theme does.

But it's just plain useless. Why would you reload the SD card? We have SDHC cards now so we have plenty of room. The whole point of the USB loaders is so we don't have to get off the couch. Why are we getting up to change SD cards? We're not. Nobody is. Certainly not 10%, let alone 1%. It's a novel concept, and might even have some weight if this loader actually loaded from SD (say click the SD card to access the SD WBFS partition). But as of right now it's truly pointless, and completely ruins many theme's.

I realize this is a work in progress... but feedback is necessary to give perspective. That's what we're doing here. I know fully well the SD card icon will be theme-able and moveable, just like all the other buttons. But, until it actually loads games from a WBFS SD partition, it has no place on the main menu. I'd recommend commenting out the code, until it can be fully implemented. I'll be sticking with r245 until then.

Oh, and if anyone is interessted:

. I think you don't need Advertising for SanDisk...don't know what Size it should be, but resizing shouldn't be that hard...

. Better would be the original one, I guess...

actually giantpune, why not use the Wii's sd icon? Blue-k has a point about SanDisk

I posted a suggested SD Card image, in Issue #179.

 

[TiMeBoMb4u2]

The SD icon ist just temporary .... will be changed. But im pretty busy today.

I have submitted a suggested image, for this.

I got a code dump when trying to add a game with the latest release. It froze at about 26%. When I held down the power button on the wiimote I got the code dump and a weird buzzing noise.

STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SD ICON

If you don't like it use r245 for now as the only change to r247 was that.
Mediafire folder with all the dols and all the needed files

They WILL change the icon and INCLUDE a theme option OR they will move it somewhere else.

THEY STATED THAT IT WILL CHANGE.

What would be the posiblilty of being able to load/store the loader and or cover/disc art on the same physical disk as the wbfs partition? that way its not as reliant on the the sd card. plus might make keeping up with all these daily changes a little easier.

[moviecouple]

I wasn't complaining at all. So I hope that wasn't directed toward me. Just stating that I didn't particularly like it that much. That's all.

 

[cyrex]

If you show me how to launch homebrew from a usb hdd and especially from a wbfs drive you are THE man

Well existing forwarders are compatible with this loader
But what I'm still looking for is a forwarder dol to use in preloader autoboot

You can obtain the dol unpacking the forwarder.wad and simply renaming 00000001.app to boot.dol

Thanks, I know about that. Tried it myself once too. But the problem is, preloader is very picky about the dol files it will load. So far all the ones I've tried just crashed

 

[Sportsmaniac1322]

In my opinion I think the SD card reload feature could be useful, I just think it should be somewhere other than the front screen. If they put that option in the settings then it would be fine. Also, for everyone who's complaining out there, right now they're just testing the reload feature. Once they think it's perfected, they'll add an option to turn it off. That's how this loader has been working for a long time.

Why boot a forwarder to boot the loader??

Just boot the loader from preloader...

btw... wheres that animated channel forwarder that works with the latest revs??

Click on a cover (left of the gamelist) and choose what you want to download and wait...
Download all missing covers / discart at once.
