as far as i figured out there is a bug in the V6beta that doesn't allow to setup the cover download option in the config file. it still wants to download and doesn't change neither with download = 0 nor with download = 1.


Where did you put your config.txt ?

SD:/apps/usbloader/ or in SD:/ ?

Sorry for my late reply Modder.... ehm i use to have my config.txt in the usbloader folder and my images in the image folder in the root of the sd card. I know that the other settings i made are read off the config.txt because i edited it a bit for the colors of the game list etc. But anyway i can't stop the covers from downloading. Even i set it to download = 0 it just tries to download a cover i don't have... then displays the "image not found" cover from my images folder.

If your getting core dumps on downloading, which version of cios 36 are you using?

You will need to install the latest version Rev10

I'm on rev10 via network install. Is the EHCI patch essential?
yes it is. without the ehci module there would be no usb access possible.

I'm confused, what to do exactly with the

* SDHC-Module_rev10 (is that the IOS250?)
* EHCI module patch (where is ehc_loop.c)

not just install the cIOSrev10 ?

thanks!

just install cIOsrev10... thats all ive ever done, never installed no EHCI Patch and ive been playing backs for days just fine... (was on rev9 before)

When I had rev9 + Ultimate v3 and older they worked just fine. Now I install rev10 (no EHCI just like yourself) and Ultimate v6 and it's code dump time

If someone can tell me how to apply this .diff patch file then I will give it a go and see if it fixes things on my setup. I've googled and only come across a util by MS that compares the contents of two text files, nothing about software patching.
 
Any chance we can implement the installation of V3 games into V6... V6 install speed is very slow.

I appreciate its to do with 1.4 usbloader update, v6 is built up on why the installation is slow in version 6..

Ideal scenario, Install speed of version 3 with the bug fixes and features (including uninstall fixes) of version 6
 
thank you very much for your help to get the first post clean!
I'll fix things right away.

More than copy and paste isn't possible for me, today.
 
hungyip84, is it possible to add back "Force PAL" and "Force NTSC" to V4 version?

There are some NTSC Wii console other than USA, such as Japan, Taiwan and Korea and sometimes require to set "Force PAL" to get game start properly.

It will be great for us to get video mode as "System default", "Game default", "Force PAL", "Force NTSC", "Patch".
 
Well I'm having a little bit of an issue,

I've installed REV 10, was previously on REV 9.
Rev 9 and ISO loaders 1.1-3 used to work properly.
But every time I have tried a 1.4 one I've gotten a (DSI) error.

The program runs fine, I install a game and no matter what it is instantly after pressing *Press A to continue* USB Loader crashes giving me the (DSI) error.

After that USB Loader will not run anymore unless i format the USB device.
- The USB is perfectly compatible, it worked flawlessly on older versions.

Checklist:
Rev 10 - check
Latest version of this USB Loader *v6* - check
Optional Images folder + Config.txt + Title.txt - check (Tried without also)

I would really appreciate some help.

Specs dunno if they matter or not.
Wii: Pal AU Launch Console
Firmware: 3.2E
 
Hi... congratulations hungyip84.... I dont have any problem with HDD already connected, but if my hard disk isn't connected at USB and there is countdown i have more problems...When i connect my HDD the covers don't load, the network download doesn't go and all is black and white without colors... what can i do?
 
Hungyip84: if possible, please re-check my code and merge as much as you think makes sense into your ultimate loader, I'd like to see the source code merged as much as possible.

NEW: configurable SD/USB Loader v6:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/enmyoyinudt/...Loader_cfg6.zip
Changes:
- Support for runtime editing of video, language and ocarina options.
To enable this, use option: buttons=ultimate
- option: buttons=[original], ultimate (change button controls layout.)
The button layout "ultimate" is:
BUTTON 1 - force video option
BUTTON 2 - ocarina option
BUTTON B - language option

This makes the configurable loader on par to the ultimate loader.
Difference between the configurable and ultimate v6 is:

Configurable has:
- support for SDHC backup loading if you have cios10
- no requirement on cios10 - meaning covers, background and other stuff works from a normal SD card (in ultimate 6 it doesn't)
- code more close to waninkoko's original 1.4
- a couple more configurable options (default video, language and ocarina modes, maybe some more)

Configurable doesn't have:
- remembering game settings to WBFS parition. And I will not add this, as I don't want to touch WBFS.
My plan is to allow saving per-game and global options to a normal file instead.
- network cover download (I might add this if it proves stable enough, but at the moment seems to be crashing)
 
I think there should be a new thread instead. Is there one?

Today I will add more video option and add more config options.

I would also give a 1.1 V6
 
great addition, oggzee!

I also got a new Background for you if you like...

To make this background work use the great config.txt and change following:
Code:
console_coords=40,71,340,290
console_color=7,15
covers_coords=446,109

And here is also the PSD file.

Have fun and keep up the gorgeous work

yes it is. without the ehci module there would be no usb access possible.

I'm also getting code dumps when it tries to download covers.
I definitely have cios36 v10, I installed it this morning.

When did you download cios36 rev 10. If you got it when it was first posted you may need to re-download it. The initial release caused problems and would not let games load. It also caused other problems.
 
I forgot to setup a boolean check if Network Initialization failed, to prevent it from trying to download regardless of an internet connection.

Ive updated the source / compiled and it works, but its based off V4 so hungyip will have to add the change to his code.

hungyip, the changes to menu.c are here on pastie: http://pastie.org/445083

I only added a boolean donotdownload, setting it to true when Networking Init Fails, and an if statement around the download code. You'll notice the changes.

Now it wont try to download if it couldn't get an internet connection.
