What's the background issue? Just make an image called background.png and throw it in the images dir.

 

[Xras]

background image should be named bg.png and should be in same folder as covers..

 

[Don Killah]

yep, i second that. much easier to handle if all files a

 

[Don Killah]

[MrFaust]

[saget]

wow! cool

it will be greate to me if can fix: - There are no other hacks to this (e.g. NTSC/PAL)
And perfect if can add auto internet download game image...

It's not an SD card error it's that the game doesn't recognize your SD card when your using codes Brawl for example

And I've tried putting the backround image in the image folder on the root of my SD and in the same folder as the .dol and I've tried renaming it to background, bg, bg.png, & background.png and nothing has worked

I will give a cookie to anybody that creates a wad using nIxx's .dol. I have the graphical capabilities of a retarded chimp and don't want to insult my Wii by installing total garbage

There is just too much going on, on that mock up for me.

I like to see the box-art image. and which button to scroll ... and start a game. Anymore is just cluttering in my opinion. (For the kids, they see a picture, and "Press "A" to start the game" Anymore, will not be useful to a 10 year old

But, we all have different likes and dislikes I guess

True about the kids Kosaic, but at the same time, adults who have no idea what a particular game is about could flip to Info view and see screenshots, reviews, the works.

Here is a concept of the fade-wipe screens

Personally I love this look. I wish I had some sweet skillz (said in Napolean Dynamite voice), so I could contribute something.

Thanks for all of the effort usptactical, Kosaic, bluebird.

Much appreciated!

Can't wait 'till is completed.

background must be named bg.png and the images folder is not on root of the SD card.


apps/usb_loader/images thats how mine is setup and its all working great.

so my .dol is in apps/usb_loader and my images are apps/usb_loader/images

Man these images make such a difference.

Thanks to everyone working on this.

I guess once a dol that supports forwarding comes out and if someone can fix games like Deadly creatures needing a disc in the drive to work, for now, this would be perfect for me.

Heres the image I made for my theme that supports images:

I'll add these into my main collection, and get a nw package out later. Appreciate these ...

They are not sized consistently, which will cause issues ... I will fix them.

Thanks,

Thanks it works now, now if the in game SD card access bug were fixed than everything would be perfect

This is what WiiPower said when he fixed the bug "Now it uses the correct libgoc filepath sd:/..."

Just for fun .... (I've had WAY too much coffee today

)

Tanks for your response. The way I did it I shrank picture, name them(I know name is good , they show in wbsf_tool and change the attributes in paint to 160x225 and they do not show up. How do you change pictures to 160x225?

Use IrfanView it's free and nice.


@Kosaic: I changed the 4th letter in your release from E to P.

Here is Kosaic's pack updated to PAL:

Here is Kosaic's NTSC pack mirrored (don't think there is need anymore, but more locations are convenient):

Edit: updated download link, now doesn't expire!

Thank you.

 

[AdamBrunt]

Can't check, as I am at work, but can someone confirm that the link for "nIxx's version for WAD´s or the Forwarder" (in the very first post) does indeed work when used with a forwarder ?

 

[maddoc]

All covers until now in one pack:
767 covers 160x225px (some are JAP versions that's why it's an odd number)

Thanks go to Kosaic and others that posted missing and corrected covers.



Edit: added cover count
