Hacking USB Loader... my turn ;)

[Golfman560]

Config.txt goes in the same palce as the dol file. I'm not sure about titles.txt however, I think theres a bug with that

Damn I just realized I missed 666 posts.

Could someone send me a WAD of this? I can get it running as a dol in homebrew channel but the WAD will not run, just gives me a black screen. When I inject it it gives me a code dump.

Thanks for all the info. Time to go home now =)

I really want to turn this to a GUI loader, but before that I need to read GUI 101, haha.

 

[Golfman560]

Making a GUI wouldn't be extremely hard since you already know how to code, however making the images is hard (If you suck at it), but I believe someone around here can do that.

you should then check nixx//dimok's work. thee worked on it and he achieved a really nice piece of code.

by the way, check your pm mate.

@DeadlyFoez:
yep, it should be named config.txt, that's why it's not working.

Can you make it so it loads the bg.png from the folder that the dol was launched from and not from /images/ folder?

 

[KongsNutz]

kAYMM2-

just change it in the config.txt to

images_path=SD:/apps/XXXX/


XXX = your folder of the boot.dol

you will have to put all images in there though.

To make it more of a GUI, really the only thing that needs to change is the console.

http://code.google.com/p/freetypegx/ has the library and code examples needed to draw text on the screen as graphics. Doesn't look too difficult.

The great thing is that it would allow us to change the font size. It might also help with the flicker problem that I and some others get with the current console.

Double post...forums are going incredibly slow today. I think our thread is killing it!

in the new version they means:
-no widescreen support, yet. Will be in next or overnext version.

did they mean no widescreen in games or no widescreen backpic? oö

I begging for this psd please !!

Hey folks, me again.

Now a few pages back (171 to be exact), there was a loader background image that when I right-clicked it to save it it was going to save it as a jpg. I though that the usb loaders were only working with png's at the moment. Will this jpg work fine or will I have issues.

Has to be png. Didn't realize the site I uploaded to automatically converted it.

Hope you like it!

Want can I do if I want to translate this GREAT loader in french??? I cannot see the source anywhere...

Does I need the source to do the conversion in french? I can change the background in french, but not the loader itself.

I just want to translate... thanks!

 

[evvil]

Thanks for testing. I will try to look that up =)

Btw, would you mind to pm me your IM so you can help me to test before releasing? I prefer MSN =)

Just got home, pm sent, downloading beta 3 now.

About the first post on this page, I could also translate in French if needed. Je viens du Quebec alors je connais le francais.
