And where can we have it ?
Is it cIOS from Kwiirk or from Hermes ?

Its from hermes loader.

whats so special about ios 222 ?
I also don't undertstand this...searched for a while and found nothing that could be different that in the cIOS from Wanin (249). I only know that cIOS222 was/is used to launch Game Channels, with YAL...but that's not needed in this loader..anyone care to explain

? Thanks in Advance!


Someone must be able to answer this. After all the work that's gone into this and other launchers to "support ios222", no one knows why you'd actually use it?
Apparently ios222 = cios usb2 dip

Guys stop telling lies. Cover download WORKS!!! You just need to unluck. I just tested it and it works. It also works if you put to your config.txt godmode = 1

it is not a lie, i did few tests, took me 3 restarts of the loader before i could activate the download function.
stranges but true.. :-(

it works if you unlock or set godmode = 1 !!
i testet it now at 2 wii´s and it really works!!


Guys stop talking nonesense. You must be entering the wrong password. It WORKS WITH BOTH UNLOCK AND GODMODE. I just tested it.

I found the reason for blocking cover downloads!

Tooltips = on => Everything works fine in godmode or if unlocked!

Tooltips = off => cover download is not available ... locked or unlocked!

Please test it!


Thats the reason!

just updated to r262

config only contains godmode = 1

and now the onscreen power button beeps when you press it and then the wii wont do anything else.

you have to power it down.

using a forwarder as weel if that makes a difference

fixed the download window bug and error -128 in new rev.

Our Loader only works with the older cIOS 222 DIP from Hermes. The new isnt working yet i think. Need someone with the new one on IRC to give me a report on it.

Also read here.

Sorry to keep pressing this, but there seems to be nothing but hearsay on the subject. This topic, for example, suggests that IOS222 is made obsolete by cIOS36 rev9. But dimok just suggested there's a new one that's untested? What's that about?

If "IOS222 = cios usb2 dip" why would we use it? Is it faster than cIOS36 rev10? If it is, shouldn't everyone be using it by default? Maybe I'm not looking in the right places, but there seems to be a frustrating lack of information about these pieces of software, and yet there must be a group that knows enough about it to work so hard at implementing and fixing support for it in these launchers.

trying to compile r262 . getting errors .

input.cpp
main.cpp
menu.cpp
c:/USBLoader/source/menu.cpp: In function 'int MenuInstall()':
c:/USBLoader/source/menu.cpp:1990: error: 'struct WPADData' has no member named 'battery_level'
c:/USBLoader/source/menu.cpp: In function 'int MenuDiscList()':
c:/USBLoader/source/menu.cpp:2422: error: 'struct WPADData' has no member named 'battery_level'
c:/USBLoader/source/menu.cpp: In function 'int MenuFormat()':
c:/USBLoader/source/menu.cpp:2989: error: 'struct WPADData' has no member named 'battery_level'
make[1]: *** [menu.o] Error 1
"make": *** [build] Error 2

> Process Exit Code: 2
> Time Taken: 00:02

i'm going to just try to add a battery_level field to WPADData definition . in the mean time , maybe someone can update the source file if it's bad , or wotherwise tell me if i'm doing something wrong .

edit: can't find WPADDATA type definition . is it a preassembled type that i can't change ?
is anyone else able to build r262 ?

Hermes, from EOL, made a new CIOS222 with some special features like linked hacks (for example, the USB 2.0 driver are embeded into the program, not into the CIOS); and a watchdog, that prevent chrashes or locked I/O.

Can you support this new CIOS222?. You need to add this linked hacks into the usbloader, and add a "check header IOS" (there are an example into the uloader's source) to detect if it use the new methods of linked hacks. All are documented into the source in this package:

Don't know if this has been requested:

Can a long press of the HOME button return the user to a place setup in Settings such as Wii Menu?

The cIOS222 is supposed to support some Games better. I personally dont have it installed, i use cIOS36 Rev 10 (its IOS249). I have no problems with any of my games with it.
I added this support for those who want to use it. I had giantpune as my guinea pig to test it. He said it works.

Thank you for the reply. It would be interesting if some of these people who like to use it would mention what games they think benefit from it and why.

I've heard the newest version of IOS222 (beta 4?) might include a fix attempt for people who's hard drives go to sleep while they're playing, but no one would really know that for sure until it's out and supported by the launchers. But then if it works it's just as likely to be included in the next cIOS36 revision, so I guess I'm still not seeing a compelling reason to install.

Thanks again.
