Hacking USB Loader GX

[Scarfish]

This thread is so huge, that I was drowned in it and will ask my question any way:

I want the loader to load the covers etc. from my USB drive. Do I change the path to USB:/images/ etc or something else?

I have 3 partitions on the drive, the first is WBFS, the second is FAT32 for covers and stuff and the third is NTFS.

Edit: Ignore my stupid question as it was already described in the manual

 

[zorglub07]

Yeah, Surely that is code OWNED by nintendo, Get it deleted and earn yourself a nice warn/ban!
Could this not be added to the rules/stickies about publicly sharing .dols and other parts of games?

Sorry, I should have mentioned more clearly this is a version of USB Loader r550 to test...
but please read my post again, http://rapidshare.com/files/247467663/r550altdolfix.rar.html

Yes. USB:/images/ - Surprised you didn't just try that first

I know and atm you replied I saw that it's in the manual too. Lets just say that I'm very tired and need to go to bed but thanks for answering

.
The reason that I wanted to be sure was that I'm too lazy to change the full path (with the channel version R516 I believe) its not possible to just change SD in USB. You have to remove the whole path and retype it. Dont know if thats different in later versions.

Just picked up Resident Evil Archives at Walmart. Will test and post results shortly...

***Update***
Boots and plays fine with r549 / cIOS 38 rev12 / anti002 fix ON / 002 fix ON
Will test other configs in the morning...

P.S. I was excited when I heard about the widescreen support...until I played it and realized that it forced 4:3 with no option to stretch. Definitely sucks since I have a widescreen tv. I recommend staying with the gamecube version if you have it (unless for some reason you still have a 4:3 tv

)

ok so according to this http://usbloadergx.koureio.net/news/anti002fixoption

ghostbusters will work under usb-loader GX rev546 and cios rev10?

can anyone confirm this before i go and get ghostbusters?

Yes, I have Ghostbusters and Indy working on 456 and rev10. I originally had rev13a, but downgraded because I had to turn off the wii before starting another game. I have no problems at all with rev 10.

 

[TyrianCubed]

I have ghostbusters working with rev 550 and cIOS rev 10.
Settings used (in the loader settings, not the settings you get after you click on the game and there's the spinning disc on screen):

video: autopatch
002 fix yes
anti 002 yes

and it works! try this way.

Do you guys have any idea if USB Loader can ever fix the games that don't recognize Wiimote input such as Castlevania Judgment and Illvelo? If I'm not mistaken, these games became broken after 1.1 but I don't think anyone ever bothered to look at the cause.

I have not had an issue with Castlevania Judgment with cIOS10 or higher using USB Loader GX.

Right. I'm using v13a, w/ GX 550. The compatibility Wiki for Castlevania states the same problem I'm experiencing, so... I'm not alone with this.

Bumping my problem since this thread moves so fast. Should I try reverting to cIOS12? 10?

Also I encountered a severe code dump with r550. I was toying in the Sound options (no MP3s on SD card). I think I tried to scroll the (empty) page and it crashed on me. Hopefully this is enough info for devs to look into.

PWNS indeed!!!
loosing the pointer every now and than seems to happen randomly though no biggy
by the way random...is there a way to make the bg music play randomly at start up or is this just another ridiculous nicknackaddonidea??
thx guys and keep up the good work love this loader!!!!!

 

[WiiShizzza]

Tried several cIOSES and now I'm back on rev10...
Mostly all games work for me with GX Loader r550.
Except those like MK,MOHH2....

Ghostbusters, Indy (except fate of atlantis), BoomBlox, DKJB work...

Problem is, one game doesn't work when the AntiFix is turned on.
or one works with both fixes enabled.
tried several setting-combinations... non worked for all games.
So I have to set the "GameLoad-Setup" and the "Game-Settings" for every single game.

(sry for my english)

i think i need some help here,
i'm using rev543 now for the ghostbuster,
thing really work fine,
but now the problem is the Forwarders,
after i use the r543, the Forwarders got some problem,
if give me black screen when i select it at the wii menu, sometime it work n load my Harddisk,
but mostly it just doesnt load, depend on luck,
when it black screen, i unplug the hd, the usbloader gx select screen will appear,
n ask me like using cios 222, or 249, then i select one, n it say cant detect my hd,
n ask me to reformat it. but if i load the gx from HBC, is no problem at all.
i have try the latest forwarders, also the same,
just how/what do i need to solve this problem?

y there isnt anyone that answer me??
for now, i downgrade my GX back to R469 with forwarder dated 6/6,

i cant get the 16/6 forwarder work n the r5xx also.

i using cIOS 36 rev10.
should i update something for the latest version to work for me?
OR should i get my HD format by 2 partition? one FAT one WBF??

Next time you boot the loader (try r549 or r550) and get the black screen, sit and wait rather than immediately unplugging your hard drive. When you update your forwarder it may do this to you. Wait...wait....wait...wait a little more...and the loader will slowly start to boot up bit by bit. It will give you the cIOS option. Make your selection and then the "can't detect harddrive" screen will pop up. NOW you can unplug the HD, count to five, and plug it back in. Now to be safe, when the loader finally boots up, do a full shutdown and reboot before you play any games.

And try to be more patient. Everyone has different issues here because very few people have their Wii set up EXACTLY the same way. Some of us are busy trying to figure out how to help people and some of us are just asking for help...

Ghostbuster works with Usb loader rev 549, Cios rev 9, fix 002 too and default setting for launch disc

 

[LusKereN]

a saw link in this thread somewhere, pretty hard to find again.. It was a link to a program, so that i could stop my Maxtor Hdd from "spin-down" causing a game to freeze..

I hope someone knows the link, and will reply.

AND THX FOR A AWESOME LOADER.

I used to use the Configurable USB Loader (I still do, don't worry oggzee

) but this looks so good that I'm probably going to have to switch.
Plus this is much more updated than the Configurable USB Loader (no offense oggzee

).

 

[kLiNiKaL]

this loader quite simply pwnz all other loaders...its sexy, easy to use, feature packed and most of all its updated like 12458 times a day lol

if theres a fault, its fixed pretty much straight away.

a background update check would be nice however maybe on launch, but if you were using 222 this would cause errors i believe.

 

[ecw]

Ok, but nobody got it working on Rev10?? Does Rev12 break previously installed Wii Menu USB HD Channels the way 13a does?



Break what channel? Mine didn't break on 13a

It broke previous installed USB game channels I made with WBFS Manager. Went back to Rev10 and now they work.

 

[cocomonk22]

You mean HDDScan?

 

[LusKereN]

no it was not that.. it was a tool made by seagate (maxtor).. and i have looked on their site, but i cant find it..

I too noticed the pointer being out of position. This was on R516 so I dont know if it's fixed yet.
Problem over here seems to be that if I don't use the controller for a little while it's 'off' and you should push a button. I think that the loader resets the drawing of the pointer to the center of the screen while the position of your pointer is at the place you left it when it was turned 'off'.
