Hacking USB Loader GX

[Snoozer]

WHOA this is so typically...as I reported, got blackscreened since 668 and planned to search the error. that is 7h ago.
Then I spent my time with preparing for an exam I'll write tomorrow and several minutes ago I went back on troubleshooting.
comparing 667 and 668 I included step by step changes that where made to find out what file causes the error.
and just in that moment, I am able to accuse you rockin' too hard....there's a new revision and its fixXxed.
don't missunderstand me, I love it when errors are fixed, but I just wanted to report my epic fail timing

That's odd. I check the rev in the credits screen and it shows Rev669 671M.

Try Logans version (previous page)

edit found the problem in svnrev.c
CODE#define SVN_REV "669M"

const char *GetRev()
{
ÂÂreturn SVN_REV;
}

My version said 669: 671M instead of 669M
Also strange that the newest version shows R669M

Happens if the source isn't a clean checkout

It'll still be r671 though.

Give mine a shot, should be ok.

If you downloaded after mine it should say R669M cause thats the one on the server atm.

Ooh someone try mine, not had that before. I'm unable to at the moment. My HDD is hooked up to another for disc-to-disc. Damn thing takes hours

Hermes cIOS are installed in other IOS slots than wanins, so you can have them both

Slightly OT here. But is that right? Can you install both then? What benefit is Hermes?

Yours is correct
Shows R671M in credits

Wouldn't it be silly if you could choose cIOS222 / cIOS249 in the settings if they install in the same IOS slot?

Some games work better with Hermes cIOS (And it enables rock band thinges I think)

Dol from disc loads the alt dols of a dvd
Thats the whole point of alt dols: after loading, the USB gets dropped, so it needs to get the alt dol elsewhere

JESUS CHRIST NO!! The only thing this application does with DVDs is install games. Dol from disc just loads the dol from within the wbfs partition instead of the FAT partition.

Shouldn't it technically be alt dol from disK or alt dol from USB at least? Since disC refers to DVDisc, CDisc or BR Disc. I think that might clear up some of the confusion.

or it could be alt-dol from WBFS to clear all confusions

USB Loader GX r672 - Click HERE to download

Changes (copied from Google project page):

• Added button to update/download all language files in the Language selection. The files are downloaded into the setuped path for languages.
• Added URL_List class that gets all Links of an http url.
• Made HomebrewList class dynamic allocated like the URL_List class too now. This saves lots of unused memory.
• Small cleanups
• NOTE: Punes made an update too (i didnt know he was doing it). We decided to have both in because of:
  
  [1] Punes update updates only the files that are available on the SD/USB and only when you are doing a complete update.
  [2] My update is downloading ALL files from the SVN Link (getting the whole list). These is mainly for people that are getting started or those who want to update the whole LanguageList

Both DOL and ELF versions included in archive

I changed it to Disk in the readmii (and incase someone missed it: the 'download' link in my sig will always give you the newest version in txt format

)

R672 solves the game loading problem for me.

I did some testing and discovered another issue. When I have a WiiTDB.zip present (downloaded using the generated URL). I can request info about a game using 2. However after pressing 2 a few times for different game titles the list showing the games is garbled with unreadable characters.

I do NOT have the option on that uses the titles form de xml.

Another issue is that if I do an update all the update process always gets stuck at updating wiiTDB.zip. (I have all on USB no SD card present).

 

[Smiff]

i love how angry giantpune gets when people screw up.. really turns me on

anyway..

can confirm the database.txt loads fine from the sd root config dir. this is bit odd though, how about using one configurable folder for all the addon files (wiitdb, database, etc)

one bug seen in channel load area:
the channel list is missing a vertical scroll bar. (minor i know).

also despite the warning, mii channel works with 3.2E system.

can I 2nd the suggestion to put a mii channel button on main loader screen please. that or a button for all the channels, so channels aren't buried under the app loader screen.

loader coming on really nicely these last few days, turning into a fine main dashboard for my wii

 

[obicom]

I can't open any Channel with the USBloader on FW 4.1e
Only the USBLoader Forwarder Channel starts correctly.
If I try any other channel, it comes up a black screen for a few seconds and return to the USBLoader screen.

Any idea why? Is there a difference for 4.1u and 4.1e ?

 

[Deleted-119707]

which is the stable release? there are so many releases i dont know which one XD i updated to r672.

 

[pepxl]

Is there a difference for 4.1u and 4.1e ?

yes one is for PAL(E) systems and the other for NTSC(U) or NTSC(J) systems install an update from another region and your instantly bricked
