Hacking WiiFlow - an open source GUI USB-Loader

I'm still struggling to get home btn take me to source in 447,
deleting wiiflow.ini didn't help
deleting categories.ini got rid of codedumps but still exiting to SM when Home is pressed
I'll see what other stuff I have to delete to find the cause.
Are you sure guys it's working fine for you!

man forget banners, thats one reason why i stopped messing with gx, they were never right. allways blinking/flashing. or would just be grayed out all together. no matter what i did. after the final code crap. i gave up.. you want banners stay with gx. i like fanart or making my own custom covers. so i'll stay right here with wiiflow.(lot more user input an friendly.).. an did you add the "wad" that came with the download?..i had the same issues, until i loaded the wad.

You guys may test r448 and disable extended_list_check, then try emu nand games, for me it works now, thanks to nibb, our long years tester for the tip!

Home is still home, you need to press home+B to go the source menu, and only after you enable startup menu in the ini.

448:
Nand Emulation still codedumpin in default and carbonik tried 8 wiiware same dump
Home button still taking me to SM (at least no codedump after cleaning cache and categories)

Hey everyone, just wanted to give you a heads up that i posted a new Neo Geo Pocket Color full cover set today, and made a fairly important announcement as well. Check out my coverthread here for details. Have fun!

So just read the past 100 pages of the thread to catch up on what's been happening and it's sure been a crazy ride. [member='Fix94'], [member='Yardape8000'], OverJoy, [member='Fledge68'] thanks for all the improvements and additions. [member='Mastershoes'], [member='Abdallahterro'], [member='Pepxl'], thanks for all the contributions and awesome customization you've been able to provide to the source menu and beyond.

I'll be honest coming from where advanced is at, seeing all the option additions to the wiiflow.ini, The Source Menu, the Emu Plugins and all the ini's and settings associated with them definitely seems a bit daunting and for whatever reason a bit difficult to get a grip off, so I'm just going to ease on in with an emulator or two and see how it works out, in the end I'd love to get WiiFlow working the way Mastershoes has it going cuz it's DAMN SEXY!!

I play on my enunand a lot though so I'll prob stick with advanced with emunand launching for now since I rarely have issues launching anything. I'm pissed though cuz PoP:FS isn't launching and there's been no news on the wiiflow-plus front.

My only question is can I now run everything from USB1 and have wiiflow on USB2, from what I've read it seems as long as the plugins folder and the roms are all on USB1 Fat32 and I install the hidden WAD channel it should be fine, but I want to confirm with others that have been testing this out for a while if the compatibility or rather if it less buggy to run anything off SD?

He's still singing the lala song, 447 home button gets you back to SM after a 5sec Codedump

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.

I´ve got a problem like this. Since a few days I´ve done it, that ScummVM worked perfectly in wiiflow. Yesterday I tried to use the sourcemenu. Since that, my scumm-games are not displayed in Wiiflow..But if I change the source to my VGAfx - GameBoy Advance settings, my scumm-games are displayed. I´ve deletet the wiiflow.ini, later changed the magic numer in the scummvmplugin.ini and the wiiflow.ini but nothing changed. Any ideas, what I´ve to do, to display my scumm-games again? Delete all wiiflow-settings? Delete the cache? Waiting for another revision of Wiiflow?

just to clarify - the home button on the wiimote is still home and if you hold down the 'B' button it will reload wiiflow which if you have startup_menu enabled in wiiflow.ini it will load it on restart/reload.

to access the source menu press 'A' while pointing at the home/exit icon and '+' on view icon will still work too (for now)

when startup_menu=yes I get the source page on startup!!
can't we just have this option working with regular booting.
And why "B+Home" why not just Home and let B+Home (or any other combo)=exit

 

[macmanhigh]

Is anyone else having issues with WiiMote+ Controllers?

Using R445 all of o sudden Wiimotes lose sync and wont turn back on....i gotta remove battery packs & reinsert.Keeps doing it randomly....

Make sure you delete cache settings and ini before.

hello MacFly! just kidding buddy but some times you can be so dense. did you not read my reply? Just press the 'A' button on the wiimote while pointing at the exit icon that usually looks like a home or house. You do not have to enable start menu on startup. that is just an extra option.

just tried it but only got sonic 4 to work once out of 5 tries. tried others too. on game launch it quickly goes to a black screen (no code dump) but never starts the game (except that one time)
