Here's my story...

Was running waninkoko's Rev11 cIOS and all was hunky dory.

Had loads of channels--->USB Games created using Yaulct_1.2

but....then some new games came out which would only worrk with wanin's 13(a).

They work through Neogamma, and some other loaders, but I cant make channels for these new games and some older ones are now failing with 002 error.

I then I saw a fix for backup loaders that WiiPower had told someone here:
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?s=&showto...t&p=2022019

So silly me thought that these channel creation tools just created their channels using a basically unchanged dol. So put in the fix lol

Wanin's modified dol plays the new Tiger Woods, Golf and Indy Game no bother.

"Ya Beauty" I thought! I'll just replace the dol in the channel creation software!

Duh, silly me lol

I read on and found that many were creating their own Channel creation tools based on either wanin's (249) or is it Herme's? (222 etc) and that the channel crreation tools had further modified dols and contained some special "Code words" that were replaced by the games title code.

So yeah, long story shortened now!

Installed devkit pro, amended some code in wanin's apploader.c to this:

Code:
/* Set entry point from apploader */
ÂÂÂÂ*entry = appldr_final();ÂÂÂÂ
ÂÂÂÂ
ÂÂÂÂ// Remove 002 by WiiPower
ÂÂÂÂ*(u32 *)0x80003140 = *(u32 *)0x80003188;
ÂÂÂÂDCFlushRange((void*)0x80000000, 0x3f00);

It compiled fine (eventually after commenting out a couple of lines in the makefile, lol!)

Thought yeah I now have a dol from which I can create channels which work for the new games using the dol.

Think again madTaMsKI, you need to make some more changes to the code, strip out Menu Code, find where you add the "keyword" and recompile.

But, fuck I can't suss it out lol.

Can someone please help?

This would help out all of us channel-->USB Game junkies!

I want to know what pieces of code I need to add.remove from wanin's backuploader 1.5 source in order to use it in channel forwarder software like Yaulct v1.2 or Crap.

I have managed to edit the code sorting out the 002 error compiled it ok, and can use it from the Homebrew channel, but need to know where I go from here.

Thanks in advance bud.
