The final version is working reallay good this is a PERFECT loader, but is just one thing that will make it really really good,when i make a channel of a game from the hard drive if i use this loader,the game doesnt execute just go to the menu, so i have to use the older loader,is any way that i can use this one??? Because if the setting are in the hard drive, only have to be autoexecuted rigth???the program that i use to make the wad channels is WBFS Manager and Channel Creator 2.0.

Thanks

Still one question I'm curious about and that hasn't been answered yet.
In the config file, why are there both layout and entry_lines options? Don't they do the same thing?

Thanks for the work.

What exactly is the purpose of titles.txt


For you bro? Absolutely. I'll whip up a leftside one for you, and post both PSDs shortly.

I owe you one ! Thanks a million.

I don't understand at all.

If you make a channel of the game, it doesn't use my loader at all.

My next question (without diving into it, as I'm sure someone else has)

How do we get a true 16x9 background image to display properly as I assume a good chunk of folks are running this format?

Thoughts?

It's for further tuning. It would be possible that none of the layout fit your need, so you can edit the things manually.

For example, if you use download boxart feature, you might want to reduce the entrylines to 10.

So the layout option is sets of preconfigured settings for the other options?

yes. The loader would set the layout first and then set the fine tuning options.

On the background I see that theres a button for ocarina and video. So does that mean we dont need to use a config file? We can just turn it on/off with the button? I dont really want to have to stick my sd card in my pc every time I want to change it so if I can do it with a button that would be so much better.

I'm just wondering, would it be possible to display the game code for for the selected code in the loader? It's only 6 characters so it shouldn't be too hard to find some real estate for it.

This would make it easier to troubleshoot missing covers for example. I would hope other people would benefit from this as well..

Great job with the loader by the way!

By request, here are my Loader backgrounds, for both Left and Right sides


Left side

bgbytripellexglleft.png



Right side

bgbytripellexglright.png




And here are the source PSDs for both backgrounds

Left side: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=JY7GVVHC

Right side: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=BVELA8GK


Enjoy!
I love your background! But one thing bugs me a bit is that the inconsistence between capital letters, can you make it so all the commands starts with caps or no caps at all? ie. "Toggle Ocarina" or "toggle ocarina" instead of "toggle Ocarina"
