Hacking USB Loader GX

[jono@home]

Good lukc and let us know how you get on

right tested it, doesn't matter whether its logical or primary with the fat 32 partition..

the partition must be deleted in order for games to work...

Which means it could be just a compatibility issue with some types of drives. Or something to do with which USB port the hard drive is plugged into.

Those having problems, who may have been on a revision

I have all running from HD and it works perfect.
HD has two partitions. Partition 1 FAT32/ Partition 2 WBFS.

cIOS rev 14 / USB Loader r648 / System Menu 4.1

what drive do you have ?

 

[Minties]

Commented out the code that loads titles.txt, it isn't needed anymore
since there is the xml file with all the names in it.

Please give us the option to choose between the two, I use titles.txt to rename games that are different to the xml. For example, for TP the xml is 'The Legend Of Zelda: Twilight Princess', whereas I prefer 'Zelda: Twilight Princess' which is why I use the titles.txt for my games. I know I could remove the comment from the source but I don't know how to compile, plus auto-updates via the loader is much easier .

GX now working fully with rev 14 and WSR finally using r656

.

you could just rename it manually in the loader. click on the name above the spinning disc, when game is selected and edit it as you wish.
or attach the drive to your computer and rename it with WBFS manager.

doesnt work for me at all ive tried different combos of game settings and its a no go, CFG is the only loader workin with rev 14 and wii sports resort from usb

I have installed cio38 v14 and haven't had any issues with it at all, although I haven't done "extensive" testing yet. I don't have Wii Sports Resort yet so I can't comment on that particular game.

I have tried two drives now that fail to work with dual partitions... with cios rev 14 on USBLoader GX

Seagate freeagent go 320gb.. & Iomega Prestige 320gb

again games load with only a single partition... (wbfs)

got to be a bug with GX somewhere..

I have two partitions on my drive and it works with GX loader. The key for me is that the WBFS partition needs to be the primary active partition. If it's set as the extended partition it will not work with GX, for me at least.

hello

I've install cios rev14 and i have error 002 with a lot of game.
It's strange because this rev14 fix the error 002

So I have enable" fix error 002" in the loader to solve the probleme and it's ok

I would like to know why this error 002 with cios rev14 ?

thk

yes I know that... if you read further back in the thread...

the issue is with rev14 you create a second partition also as primary or logical for the fat 32 partition games then fail to load... scratchin my head with this one... as i say previous revisions have no issue with this...

Three problems:

1. I can't seem to load the database.txt. I tried making my own, and I tried using the stuff from the pastebin, but nope. I put it in SD:/config/, which is my titles.txt Path.

2. Speaking of titles.txt... Now that it's been commented out (and I really cba to recompile it every time a new update comes out), is there a way to make it load game titles from wiitdb, but let your own custom titles override it? Now, you either have to live with the wiitdb titles (which is annoying when you have custom games like the Guitar Hero III customs), or you have to manually change the name of every game.

3. I have two partitions on my 1 TB WD Hard drive. It's worked with every previous revision, and after I got 14, it still did. I can see all the games on the drive and so on, and I tried running Punch-Out. It worked great, ran faster than before. Then I updated the loader from like r638 to r648, and now any game gives me a codedump, including Punch-Out... What? Should I have uninstalled Rev13 before installing Rev14, by the way?

3. You don't need to uninstall a cIOS to install another one. Just install right over it.
If you haven't already, delete your global config file from your SD/USB and then try again.

2. No, you can just manually edit any titles you need to. It's either/or with that feature right now and I don't see the coders bothering with that any time soon.

1. You have to be on r655 or higher to use database.txt

cIOS rev14 no longer corrects the 002 error. It was taken out because any decent loader now contains the fix and the option of whether to use it.

I would try other loaders as well. To eliminate which is the problem. GX or rev 14.

Starting to think people thought the opposite!

Try the formatting tool in my sig to achieve a drive with a single Fat32 partition to see if that's the issue.

Added an issue: http://code.google.com/p/usbloader-gui/iss...Owner%20Summary

Rev 630 works for now, I guess I'll use that until someone figures out what went wrong in the past few revisions.

And as I said in the issue, renaming the config folder doesn't help.

Edit: Rev 656 doesn't work either.

 

[NPVinny]

So, I'm on r656. Everything's running fine, but I noticed that my titles are messed up. Meaning, Wii Sports went back to being Sports Pack for Revolution. I tried downloading a new titles.txt, I tried moving it to another directory, I tried deleting my config files, and nothing seems to work. HALP

titles.txt support is gone
use wiitdb.zip instead
