Hacking Wii backup Manager for Windows

[Filly95]

Hi, first I have to say thanks to the author of this program (very useful). I made an Italian translation of this and i hope it will be useful for others. Here's the link to the download: http://www.sendspace.com/file/3y7nm7
Instructions:
1.Download the file
2.Extract the .lang file somewhere
3.Put the .lang file in "Language" folder ("Lagnuage" folder is in the same place where you extracted the program, duh)
PS: It would be great if you add this file in the main program archive and in the "About" dialog box

What do the letters under the 'Partitions' heading in the program mean? All of my games have a 'G' except for one that has 'GO'.

I think I found a bug, but I don't know where to report this, may I sent a mail to you (fig2k4)?

I use version 0.3.4 (I guess r4)

When I open my 'Wii ciso' folder via the 'Add - Folder' option, not all my Wii ciso's will be opened. It stops loading the ciso's when it hits the RSBP01 - Super Smash Bros. Brawl ciso.

Is this a known error? Or...

Workaround: I can add the rest of the ciso's via 'Add - Files' and selecting the remaining ciso's.

try the same with the 3.5 beta and see if the problem is still there

Same issue...

And... now I found an issue in the beta 1.... when I press the 'End'-button, it scrolls not down to the end of the list...

SSBB still doesn't work for me on 3.5 beta1... otherwise great app

Italian traslation

WC3 tabled game list look like this

Loving Wii Backup Manager! ... Great work fig2k4!

Can the functionality be added for WBM to burn a .wbfs file to disc directly (without having to extract to .iso and burn with other software)?

If this feature was added then WBM would be a complete solution for handling .wbfs files

[kyle007]

i have some file corruption when using the beta version on my WBFS drive when i transfer files from WBFS partition to another drive in FAT32 (.wbfs files) the games on WBFS partition disapear or would be duplicated (on the USB loader but in Wii backup Manager the game is marked in red with size 0)

 

[Spidy1000]

Is it a known problem that SSBB cannot be started from a NTFS partition? I tried several versions off WBM but everytime i try to start it with my loader (wiiflow) i get a DSI dump. All normal games (non dual-layer) work perfectly

To start SSMB on USB Loader GX on Wii Backup Manager set split of 4GB instead of auto on WBFS files in NTFS partitions.
It's a bug of USB Loader GX (and other loaders) not Wii Backup Manager.
Affect all Nintendo Wii games over 4GB.

I need some help. I just downloaded this backup manager, but it doesn't see any of the games on my hard drive. Most of the games I've ripped directly with my Wii, but when I load the drive in this manager it says something like "this is a valid drive but there is no WBFS folder. Create one now?" I clicked no, but it doesn't see any of the games already on the hard drive. What do I do?

 

[Cyan]

is your HDD FAT32/NTFS ?
Do you have a WBFS folder at the root of the drive ?

when you ripped your games using the wii, maybe they went into
WBFS/gameid.wbfs

There are now more compatible format, you can make sub-folders with a game name for example.

in backup manager, go to Option -> Fat32/NTFS tab
change the storage convention to match the one you are using (all in the same folder, or using one subfolder per game)
Choose the Naming convention for your filename (Title [gameID]) for example.

You can check the "Automatically update storage convention when drive is mounted" to have WiiBackupManager to rename and move the wbfs files to their corresponding sub-folders.

Hey, I have a .iso which is already scrubbed, it doesn't load in Wii Backup Manager, how do I copy the .iso directly to my USB hard drive?

I tried already but it doesn't see the file in CFG loader.

 

[pepxl]
