The 3D cover for that game has been there since the 28th:

Did you delete the existing image from your SD card after each attempt?

The disc art was done this morning:

Keep in mind that the program isn't grabbing disc art from me. I guess they did realize I had the fulldisc directory.


I deleted these files every attempt. Testting was done this morning

Then something is seriously wrong with the program or your test because the 3D artwork for that title has been there for 2 days.

I use rev570 and just selected 'Update' again which showed me a new version called rev5704. What's that?

And what's the difference between update dol and update all?

I found the bug in the program. It's in PromptWindows.cpp starting at line 2167:

CODE /**Temporary redownloading 1st image because of a fucking corruption bug **/

ÂÂÂÂchar URLFile[100];
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂstruct block file = downloadfile(URLFile);

I wonder why downloaded the right cover from here: http://wiicover.gateflorida.com/. Unfortunately we can not see this provider's web structure, need a pass to log on. Thanks for looking into it.

Maybe giantpune fixed the code in some of the ones he upload, but not all?

Anyway, you don't need a login to see the structure of that site:

http://wiicover.gateflorida.com/flat/
http://wiicover.gateflorida.com/3d/
http://wiicover.gateflorida.com/disc/

EDIT: Also, the 3D image is on the awiibit.com site, too:

Got a little question:

How do you use space on your HD for usb loader instaed of the SD??

Got 640Gb WD elements
Made 2 partions, one small(10Gb), and a 2nd with the rest
The first is fat32, and the other is wfsb

On my pc I made the folders for all the stuff (on the fat32) partion
Changed the paths to USB:/xxxxxx/ in the loader, did so to all the pats.

And...., nothing no theme, no covers, no nothing.
The dumps work just fine so nothing wrong with that part.
Do you need a special program to make the fat partition in a special way, I just used windows XP disk manager.
Hope someone can help out

Try removing the stuff from your SD card - or removing your SD card entirely - assuming you're using the forwarder channel...


Yes I am using the forwarder, i will try to remove the sd entirelly.

Omg, it's more than 30 degrees celcius outside and it's been like this for a week now, and that is pretty warm for being
where I am (northern sweden) lucky me for the smart inventor of "table fans"

Wait, isn't the forwarder pointing to the loader at the sd card?
Isn't that the point of the forwarder, so you don't have to install the loader as a channel on the wii?
But I can try to remove the folders (codes, config etc. all but the usbloader_gx that is)

The latest forwarder looks for the gx loader info on the hard drive first and if its not found there then it looks on the sd card.

Also you can leave your sd card in with the gx loader stuff on it and it will still load from the hard drive but you have to delete the congif files from the sd card first.You can leave the rest.That way it still possible to run it off sd through homebrew if needed.

[/quote]Take a look at line 2106:

Code:
sprintf(URLFile,"%s%s",server3d[(offset+tries)%serverCnt3d],missingFiles[i]);

compare that with line 2174:

Code:
sprintf(URLFile,"%s%s",server2d[(offset+tries)%serverCnt3d],missingFiles[0]);

That's where the bug is. You're using the 2D URL (server2d) instead of the 3D URL (server3d). This means the first image gets redownloaded and overwritten, but all the rest are fine. In the case of the tests performed, they were only working on one image at a time. If they would have tried multiple 3D cover downloads, I would bet only one would be wrong.

This is exactly what happened!

I erased three covers and the first one downloaded is 2D (RIAE52.png), 2nd one is 3D (RXIE52.png - this was the one downloaded as a 2D when I use only one cover test) and the third one is 3D as well (010E01.png).
