Homebrew Wii Browser

[drakorex]

but not after closing/reopening the app

This is what I meant and was hoping for, but was just an extra. Awesome work, and can't wait to try it out. Don't suppose you've updated FlowMart lately? We're making slow, but steady progress. Check it out if you haven't already.

Tried to update from wii and it code dumped.

ò.ò just tried the same and it works fine for me,
what gave you the code dump? the old or the new version?

However, nice work with FlowMart, I've just used the new plugin version to update it,
but don't forget to add a "UTILITIES_wiibrowser" to the shortcuts!

The old version. I was trying to update to the new version.

Huh? Why do I need wiibrowser in every shortcut name?

 

[gave92]

I meant you have to add to FlowMart a shortcut to download wiibrowser

No idea about why it crashed, did you just try to update again?
If you can, a screenshot of the code dump would be useful.

I already updated manually. I could downgrade and do it again.

I figured that since Wiibrowser has auto update, and is needed for the shortcut to work(right?) that it would be redundant. Also, you don't have Wiibrowser on a static link. Is there a reason you keep the old revisions available, instead of a constant "Latest Version"?

Whenever Wiibrowser gets updated, I can always throw in the latest rev with the Flowmart update. You could host a standalone and a flowmart package.

 

[gave92]

That's true, I was thinking about the plugin version of wiibrowser that does not autoupdate;
you could add its latest version to the FlowMart package so it would be always up to date.

PS When you say "It's ready", I'll add a link to download FlowMart on my site

I'd be happy if anyone could try to update from Rev121 to Rev132 and post if it succeeds

It's gonna be a bit still. I want to have a decent selection at release, and it's just a matter of free time. Since I'm making all the covers myself and have but a few hours each day of free time, it's slow. I've been trying to get a person or two to join in the cover making process, but I guess people are just too busy these days.

Tiny issue I have with including Wiibrowser in with Flowmart update. The config file. When someone goes to update Flowmart, Wiibrowser would be overwritten. Can Wiibrowser generate the Config if it doesn't exist, or is it necessary to include it in the fresh install package?

BTW When I saw your update earlier, I was expecting Auto download too. If this could be done, then the entire download process could be automatic!
EDIT:Why did you put in a popup saying "the app will now exit"? This kind of defeats the purpose of the autoexit.
Also, after I updated a while ago, the text was displayed in some strange foreign language.

Accidental self quote :/

Aargh I forgot I changed the language order
Just download both packages again, all problems should be fixed including that popup.
Also downloads are now completly automatic.

BOOYAH!! That's what I'm talkin about! Automatic EVERYTHING! Set it and forget it, baby!
Starter pack and update have been... well, updated Massive thanks for a tremendous job!

We now return you to your regularly scheduled coding.

Man this is exciting stuff! Updated from Wii just fine on my end. gave92 thanks for making this a reality, Drakorex's vision wouldn't have been able to come to fruition w/o it.

A bug and a request if I may. Request first, when updating WiiBrowser, can it update the meta.xml as well. It still shows I have r112 in the description prior to launching app I put in the meta manually this time around but I see where overwriting the config file could be a problem so no full updates.

As for bugs I'm unable to take screenshots, any time I press 1 an error pops up "Unable to display files on selected load device". Don't know if it's user error or not. Any insight is appreciated. Anyway great work on this man.

any possibility of a PostLoader plugin for WiiBrowser?

postLoader uses the same plugins that WiiFlow uses so you should be able to use the WiiBrowser plugin by changing the configs.path in postLoader.

 

[Acidflare]

alright sweet I thought it was just a similar plugin system and the dol's had a tad bit of a difference in their code

 

[matthi321]

wow this is very cool,are their a forwarder channel for this?

 

[Acidflare]

it wouldn't be hard to create a wad for the nand

 

[matthi321]

yes i know, but i have tried making one before, but i dont know hot to add pictures or music

 

[Acidflare]

if drakorex wants to make me a banner set for use with customizemii I can make a forwarder or I can just use the icon.png from the initial install package

that would be great if you wuildl make one and the icon.png would just be fine.
