Homebrew Wii Browser

[drakorex]

That download button is created through javascript: since wiibrowser does not understand javascript, i had to find a workaround

I see. Well, DropBox migration is complete. If you would launch the bulletin, it will download an updated bulletin shortcut aimed at DropBox. Launch it one more time, and it will download the Bulletin from DropBox, and your setup will be updated!

I'll try this later
When it will be complete it's ok if I ship it with the Wiiflow plugin package on my site? Or you have something different in mind?

Well, complete is a strong word. I plan on stocking up a decent variety before launch, and then adding to it, and updating as needed. But that's the beauty of it though. The starter kit is all you need to get started

But to answer your question, yes, you may upload it. After all, it is our love child. lol

Will do, good buddy. Before I do though, there are a couple more tweaks that would be very beneficial.
-Can we have the download manager pop up on download? Otherwise the user will see it go to the url screen, and think "huh?"
-Can we have a progress bar shown in the download manager for unzip?
-Would it be possible to exit on download/unzip completion?
-Not a deal breaker, but would it be possible to have a line in the shortcut for auto download and auto extract instead of yes/no popups? Auto extract=yes/no would be good because not all files need to be extracted.
-pie in the sky, here... But could download resuming be looming in the near future?

No rush, of course. Plenty of time before I get the covers done for everything. That is unless a couple volunteers would like to lend a helping hand

I like your idea for auto zip extraction drakorex I was thinking of using the wiiflow plugin as a shortcut to coolrom to be able to download roms for the wii and hopefully download them to my 750 GB USB harddrive and just have them in their proper directory for the according emulators.
I can also do some beta testing, i'm no coder or graphic designer but I am a great beta tester.

You might not wanna say that you use this app to download roms ( especially since you named the site) because it can make people go
"Well would you look at that somebody who doesnt know the rules well im gonna report him" and reports you.

I would look at it as it's a feature I am interested in and just stated what my personal use of said feature was

Dont get me wrong i know but when it comes to roms and downloading people just go crazy.

well there was no url posted just a name mentioned so I don't see a problem with it. I wasn't offering a place to get free games or offering personal uploaded games. But if there happens to be a problem with my post to and admin i will edit the post accordingly

It's not that I have a problem with it it's just that I hate seeing people get replied buy someone who just gonna report them when they done nothing wrong. I wasn't ginning against your post or any thing like that.

I'm aware of the other possible applications for wiibrowser. Let's not talk about rom downloading now. Shhhh!

 

[Acidflare]

drakorex do you know if saving directly to usb is possible?

 

[newo]

I've made some progress on the homebrew page for wiibrowser but there are 2 bugs with the images that need to be fixed. so I emailed gave92

I don't think he wants his app to get banned from wiibrew.

It saves to whatever device it's launched from. I haven't tried it myself, but Gave92 said it, so it must be so.

gave32 is an inferior model. The new and improved gave92 is bigger, faster, stronger, and more efficient in coding. Um, why would his app be banned?

 

[newo]

ha, yeah I edited it, my mistake.

Does anyone know if it's possible to download savegames from WiiSave.com with this browser and then use another app (like WiiXplorer and/or savegamemanagerGX) to put them in the right place? If so, then this app is awesome.

Edit: GameFaqs Save Download Works WiiSave Doesn't Seem to Work, though...

 

[MassiveRican]

This is getting sicker and sicker by the day. Phenomenal work gentleman. I'll be very psyched to try out FlowMart when it's ready for a demo run.

 

[Acidflare]

well save game manager GX can browser SD USB FAT32/NTFS Nand and EmuNand, so theoretically anywhere that the save games are placed too you can install them from there

I've just published WiiBrowser Rev132 and WiiFlow plugin V2!

Main changes:

• added support for rar/7z files extraction
• fixed downloads from mediafire and wiisave
• onscreen keyboard with autocomplete

Keyboard suggestions will be taken from browsing history, top sites and Google Suggest.

drakorex, the new plugin version:
- download manager pops up on downloads
- sort of progress bar for unzip
- exits on download/unzip completion
- has a line in the shortcut for auto download and auto extract (use "UnzipFile = X", where: X = 0 -> never | X = 1 -> always | X = 2 -> ask)
- downloads should already resume after connection is lost (this doesn't work well though), but not after closing/reopening the app
