Guys need a quick preference, just let me know what number style you think looks best for the button tweak.

I like 2 better, I don't like the semi transparent layer over the top half console image, it detracts from it a bit

No problem, I'll set up another pack when I can.

Works just fine, tested by enough people.
well, i tried it now, and i sometimes have a code dump too..
So I'm trying to break down my scummvm issues.

If it's the only plugin i have in my plugins folder, it displays fine, covers display and all is good.

When I have multiple plugins it will display when I select "all plugins" but not when i select it independently (either from the startup_menu or the options/plugins menu). Also an interesting note, it seems to decide to associate itself with another plugin... Check it out.. I figured out by listening to the .ogg file when in "all plugins" mode, I can find which one it decided to associate itself with. Initially, for me it was SNES. If I selected JUST the SNES plugin, it would also show the scummvm games, but with all the properties of SNES (SNES box color, .ogg). I saw nothing suspicious with my SNES cache either, although i did delete and try again. Same thing. Next step, i removed a bunch of plugins, including SNES. Result? Now it associated itself with Genesis. I've then tried a fresh install. Same results. Maybe the fact that scummvm doesn't seem to build any wiiflow specific cache list, that some goofy ass shitz is happening?

Edit: Should probably also add that it tries to launch the scummvm game with whatever emu it's associated itself with.
I got that too, correcting my magic numbers in wiiflow.ini (like you suggested later) didn't work either. Scummvm is visible now but somehow scummvm for me is linked to wiimednafen, and if i delete wiimednafen dol and ini...i just get a black screen and after waiting a few mins. it goes back to the SM.

p.s. I really think the function (the home button opening the source menu) is a great step forward, thanks to the community for making it happen,

Did I miss something? I don't recall anyone saying the wiimote home button or even the home icon will open the source menu. That's not up to me - that's up to Fix94. If he says it's okay then it's okay. I kind of have a feeling he doesn't want to change that. So don't get your hopes up.
Whoops! Sorry, my bad. i'd read a post of AbdallahTerro's containing a link that i was for his rather excellent mix of mastershoes' source menu, but i misread the context and thought it was a link to a new wiiflow revision with the changed home key function. Hence my comment, apologies for any offence, i wouldn't want to be presumptious.

Any word on the next stable release? or link to the recent revision?
A long needed and righteous thanks to Fix94 for your coding moves, your kung-fu is strong, big guy!
Lo5!

It has been done now by FIX94...

445 is the last stable version for me and imho it should make it to the googlecode download page until the current issue is solved.
In the meantime anyone still have a copy of 445 dol, please?

I been thinking about the current source menu and the concerns about the icons being too small, and I did some tinkering. Here's what I came up with.

First, I edited the theme.ini, changing the height/width of the buttons from 90 to 135, making them 1.5 times larger. Then I changed the y value of the second row buttons to 235 so they would have correct spacing. I then edited the source ini, moving the buttons in the third rows up 4 places, in effect moving them over to the next page.

So instead of having 12 little buttons on a page, I now have 8 big buttons per page, giving an available 24 button spots.

The theme ini should look like this

445 is the last stable version for me and imho it should make it to the googlecode download page until the current issue is solved.
That makes no sense since its exactly the same code as if you would press plus on the switch icon to open this menu.
Ok to be exact, I was on 435 or 437 (most likely 437 but let's assume 435) something happened in the past 12 rev that made Wiiflow codedump when pressing the menu button or the home button.
Currently back to 435 with no remarkable issues.
Fix if you upload the rest of rev so I can test which rev caused the problem so we can fix it
Thanks

Thats not my folder, its from one of our users CaseyOmah, he is so friendly and uploads the test revs there. Oh and since when I allow to post links outside of IRC? :P Please remove it ;)

I been thinking about the current source menu and the concerns about the icons being too small, and I did some tinkering. Here's what I came up with.

First, I edited the theme.ini, changing the height/width of the buttons from 90 to 135, making them 1.5 times larger. Then I changed the y value to 235 so they would have the same spacing. I then edited the source ini, moving the buttons in the third rows up 4 places, in effect moving them over to the next page.

So instead of having 12 little buttons on a page, I now have 8 big buttons per page, giving an available 24 button spots.

The theme ini should look like this

Test it out and let me know how it works for ya :)


I could edit the code to look like this but I was trying to keep pages down to a minimum. If everyone likes this I'll gladly change it because I actually like the bigger buttons too. Mastershoes that would mean 4 pages instead of 3 - no biggy right? also since the button size would go from 90 x 90 to 135 x 135 it would be easy to enlarge the current ones.

Oh, my gosh... Ok, so I've been following this project off and on, and I read some of the back threads on this thing when I can, but I just watched this video, and I really want my wiiFlow to look like this. Lots of people are talking about theme.inis, and desktop ini files, and icon sets and stuff.
My question - Can someone put together a small turorial for us non-gurus? I have the roms, and I'm familiar with Mastershoes' thread in the emulation section. I have the "vanilla" wiiflow working, r431, with the NES plugin, and plan to tackle the others. Or, will some theme like this be included by default, in the near future? You guys are doing amazing work! A great, international effort...

I been thinking about the current source menu and the concerns about the icons being too small, and I did some tinkering. Here's what I came up with.

First, I edited the theme.ini, changing the height/width of the buttons from 90 to 135, making them 1.5 times larger. Then I changed the y value to 235 so they would have the same spacing. I then edited the source ini, moving the buttons in the third rows up 4 places, in effect moving them over to the next page.

So instead of having 12 little buttons on a page, I now have 8 big buttons per page, giving an available 24 button spots.

Test it out and let me know how it works for ya :)

I personally prefer more icons per page 12-15 to keep page number to a minimum, source menu is our shortcut to different modes so it would be better if most modes are on same page for quick access.I prefer to have an icon "move" by pressing A+B like in system menu (the icons already look like SM icons so why not)

I know many people just downloaded the first pack but... I wasn't really v. happy with the looks,
Pngs just look better inside frames:

Changes:
*Added frames - looks like system meny now :) - maybe the devs will start considering an icon/banner flow mode :P

dont expect banners in wiiflow anytime soon....
It's funny that banner mode is all the rave now but 2BH I prefer many of the custom fanart available over the banners lol.
