Hacking USB Loader GX

[houseonfire]

Using the newest version (r943) I'm constantly getting code dumps with changing the game cover views. Especially after unlocking the parental controls.

Grid view code dumps on latest rev and I think the Usb loader gx logo that's in the background of the list box is ugly.

it codedumped on r488 too...
maybe you should go back to an older rev without codedumps and logo

Ok for most people removing the config folder from the sd or usb drive will fix problems. The new grid veiw has problems with game count under 43. So if you use it and you don't have that many games on fav or on hard drive you will need to remove the config file. Also most of these question not all but most have been ansered in post before this one. Try reading the post about 10 pages or so to see if your anser has already been asked. I am using rev494 and need help with cios installer 222. I have downloaded the latest one from this web site download page. I am on 4.0patch60ios . So my question is the installer gives alot of choices about how to install it. Which is the best way. And can someone who has used all this let everyone know what games or fix for what type of install is done. I have problems with Mortal Kombat and house of the dead 2&3-2 dose not work. Dose this fix that or not. I am going to be testing all this later on today but I you may already have found all these ansers by then. Thanks for any help.

Is anyone else getting a black screen with random colored pixels right after using the forwarder before the loader loads. it looks a bit glitchy to me. I am on rev493, cIOS 12, 4.0 FW

I've got the same set up as you.

Rev493
CiosRev12
4.0U
Latest forwarder(6.9.09)


Its been answered before but here is the answer again.

Your getting the random colored pixels because you have the sd card in the wii and your running everything off of the hard drive fat partition.
If you remove the sd card and still run everything off the hard drive the pixels go away.Its either that or the new forwarder which causes the random pixels when both sd and hard drive and plugged in regardless of which one you use.Im running everything off of my hard drive now and if i leave the sd card out the forwarder works fine and shows no random color pixels.If i put the sd card in and then run the forwarder i get the random pixels.I don't know what will happen if your running off the sd card and use the forwarder though so i cant try that.

The forwarder also seams to load everything slower if the sd card is inserted and your running off the hard drive.

Its a problem with the ios reload for playing the video, We are all having this problem via usb loader. It works fine from disk though

hi @ all,

Can anyone please help me out ? wahts this Hermes cIOS 222 thing ??? is it better than cIOS 13b ?

 

[bula]

Hermes new cIOS is got more then one option in installer. What cIOS do I have to install? TY

 

[retKHAAAN]

I really don't want to add to the plethora of hermes cios 222 questions but I am having an issue. I installed cios 222 using all defaults. I then updated my loader to rev 493 (I'd been sticking with rev479 up until then). I boot the loader, change cios to 222 in the settings menu, reboot, and then my drive is no longer recognized. I unplug it, replug it, and click cios222 and still nothing. I also tried both ports. USB 2.0 isn't really a big deal to me but I am wondering what I am doing wrong. Should I be doing the cios install differently? Is it a glitch in this revision of the loader? i see that rev494 in now out but I am not able to test for about 9 more hours.

Thanks in advance...

Open the "GXGlobal.cfg" in the config folder on your sdcard. Change "cios = 1" to "cios = 0". That will set it to use ios249. I had the same issue last night. I could set individual games to use ios 222 but if I set the loader's default ios to 222 it wouldn't find my hard drive at all.

 

[Eclipse01]

i exported all my games using windows manager and when I put them back on my HDD some games would not work, they would go to just a black screen or they would go a little bit into the game and freeze.

Thanks a lot. So it loads fine on the individual game settings but not globally?
