Current release:
  • Automatically patch error 23400 for CoD (Black Ops, Reflex, MW3) and Rock Band (3, The Beatles)
  • Automatically patch the Mario Kart Wii remote code execution vulnerability
  • Removed BenFi as a private server option because the server went offline
  • Added an option to set a custom private server address directly from the loader
  • Added HTTP(S) proxy support and improved how connection timeouts are handled
  • Added game header caching thanks to Oddx & geoGolem (disabled by default)
  • Changed the URL for cheats because geckocodes shutdown
  • Other general fixes
Source: https://github.com/wiidev/usbloadergx/commits/enhanced

Special thanks to everyone who's sent me pull requests at GitHub and patches here at GBAtemp.

Try using the GitHub version if you experience any crashes. It's compiled with a newer version of devkitPro, so it might fix the issue. You'll need an account to access the download though.

Third release:
  • Added AltWFC and BenFi as private server options
  • Added the ability to edit the cover and banner URLs
  • Added the builds Git commit ID to the boot screen
  • Fixed Japanese descriptions not being displayed correctly
  • Fixed an issue that would cause the storage details to not be shown
  • Updated the networking code to achieve faster downloads
  • Updated WiinnerTag to RiiTag
  • Updated the meta.xml information
  • Updated Portuguese and Korean translations thanks to Codemastershock & DDinghoya
  • Removed some unnecessary files
  • Removed an extra forward slash from the language path

Second release:
  • Added Nintendont BBA emulation and net profile options
  • Restored compatibility with WiiGSC and older forwarders
  • Fixed GPT partition size detection (provided by Cyan)
  • Correctly filter the games list after downloading covers so that Wii games don't go missing
  • Disconnect Wiimotes before calling WPAD_Shutdown
  • Changed "Game Cube" to "GameCube" (update your languages)
  • Enabled the 480p enhancement by default

First release:
  • Fixes cheat downloads from geckocodes.org
  • Fixes a minor memory leak
  • All downloads now use HTTPS
  • Optimised all images
  • Removed some old redundant code

Please send me a private message if you need to report a problem. Don't expect any help from Cyan as this is an unofficial enhanced build.
How come when I go to settings and back out of it it shows me a white screen making my wii unresponsive ?

Hello.:)

@blackb0x

I am using the lastest "official" Build (e25c4e4) from the Loader Mod.

Sometimes it stucks on the InGame Settings or Game Choose Main Screen.
If you click on the next Game or choose the "InGame Settings" you can still click around/move the Cursor but nothing/no Menu Button is responding.
I can make an Video if you like/need.:)

Thank you.:)

Hello.:)
The "Write Cycle".

From 100 USB Sticks/Flash Drives/Thumb Drives/Pen Drives and so on 70 failes on the Recognition and 80 after a short Time of Usage - Figuratively speaking.:)
It is a matter of Brand/Type/Age....so much Factors,so

It is a no reliable Device for the Wii/Wii U/vWii.:)

Thank you.:)

LOL! My "unreliable" 32GB USB flash drive that I've been using on my Wii since 2012 believes otherwise. I now have three of them and rotate between them depending upon what games I want to play on a given day. I'm really tired of you people bashing USB flash drives when they work perfectly for me and countless others.
It is a reliable Device for the Wii. It always has been.:)

I use flash drives from time to time well myself. I haven't found a SanDisk or PNY that's ever given me a problem. But when someone is having a problem 90%+ of the time they are using a flash drive.

I'm all for someone trying a flash drive to see if it works, but they should go into it knowing there is a lot higher chance of having issues using a flash drive than a USB. I don't see paying $50 to $100 for a large size 256GB+ flash drive just to have problems, that $50 to $100 would be better off spent on a WD Passport that holds 1TB or 2TB. Lots more games with lots less potential issues.

@tempGuri @alexander1970 You both might have a similar issue to ukigh4ie as it'll randomly crash for him depending on what he clicks on, but if he deletes his config file and starts fresh then the loader doesn't crash for him.

The issue likely comes from one of the many changes needed to make the loader support newer versions of devkitPPC. Finding the issue is difficult though since I can't replicate the crashes, even if I were to use your config files.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
