Hacking WiiFlow - an open source GUI USB-Loader

[gascommm]

am i needing to visit the opticians or is there a WiiSX plugin available for the plugins pack?

i've my psx games showing in the emulators flow but with just the copied & renamed boot.dol it will only open up wiisx rather than opening the selected game. merely an inconvenience but surely something to add to the to do list? please

also, are there any restrictions to colour coding the plugin emulators ini's ... i've tried editing to custom colours twice & on both occassions everything(nes,snes, gb,n64 & psx) turned white. i wiped the cache before reboot after edits.

first post & thank you to fix & everyone who's contributed to wiiflow - pimping the wii beyond recognition! you guys, this place deserve a medal!

Just updated the forwarder to v14, changes:
-smalled down the forwarder size
-now loads via IOS58 and AHBPROT patched out
-supports meta.xml arguments
-can use new priiloader magic word
-added support for that special elf format of linux apps
Download via both official svn and mod svn

lmao, well this makes all the forwarders I uploaded yesterday obsolete. I'll re-upload all the forwarders I have with v14 when i get home tonight. Fuck it's hot as sweaty balls in south Florida!!!

Please do! I like how I just got them all and they're already outdated again

Be great if we could get all the themed forwarders on the wiki or something too! I noticed we got some themes on the mod svn under the wiki.

That sounds like the hdd isnt fast enough hooked up again actually, I'll may come up with a test rev the next hours/days.

Hey drakorex, try the new forwarder and see if the problem is still there. FIX94, I think the hidden channel needs to be updated as well (or whatever is used to return to wiiflow after exiting Devolution), because i noticed that after you succesfully started a game and return to wiiflow, the next Devo game is not starting either.

I need a little help: is there a way to return to Wiiflow (and not to emunand system menu) from a Wiiware game started from Wiiflow with use neek2o mode?
Is there any setting I should make to the emunand priiloader, or a channel I should install?

No

That's not a wiiflow issue but it's related to Neek2o
You should wait for a Uneek2o update, some beta stuff is already cooking

can someone tell me what places i need to install the latest dx2 too?

Basically, if you want all the options you'd install all the available bases in order starting from 245 to 251 but all the auto-IOS option will choose from is base 56 in 249 and base 57 in 250.

 

[Damian666]

ah great man, thanx.

seems DML bugs out on current beta Dx2

Does anyone still use b on mode or b on home buttons to access the source menu? If not then we can remove them from WiiFlow code.

Also, does anyone know what happened to Pepxl? Haven't seen him for over a month now. Just curious.

Given that hitting B anywhere now goes to the source menu, taking it out of the code wouldn't really change much. We'd still go there if we hit B pointing at those buttons. No harm done.

YES. You could forsake the system menu altogether and autoboot a wiiflow forwarder dol on your real nand priiloader. Then autoboot neek2o on emunand. When you launch a wiiware game with neek and then rerurn from it,it will switch to the real nand, which boots back into wiiflow.

 

[drakorex]

I added the rest of the d2x v49 set as well as hermes, and now when I enter emunand mode, the buttons disappear when I hover down to them. When I switch to a different mode, the effect remains until I reset wiiflow. Gonna try out 693, hopefully devo works...

Does anyone with a perfectly working setup see anything that I need to change from this copy of my syscheck?

hey fledge, B anywhere is just enough for source menu.

In case you need to change the shortcut can you please restore the original "B" on mode function i.e. Emunand/Real Nand
also "B" on Exit = Exit to Neek2o and "B" on Info button = About, "B" on setting = Reload cache

This way eveything can be accessed easily and quickly
Thanks

 

[VashTS]

@DaveZ_227451 your syscheck looks fine to me. everything should work great with that setup.

 

[seam]

ugh... i see B on mode has been removed... which sucks. now it keeps opening the INSTALL NAND!?! screen.. and i dont use emu nand so this is really annoying. since people like ABZ are going to complain about the "B on mode/home/about/etc" till the end of time, can we at least have an option to "disable B on mode for emu nand" or "disable b on buttons" cus if youre are just going to have B for source, you have to AVOID hitting the B button if its touching anything else or itll just open the wrong thing...

 

[kineticUk]

I notice that settings and help/info etc are available when I press the home menu... I like them out of sight like that but couple of q's

1. Is there any way to remove the redundant duplicate buttons for settings and help/info? from coverflow (using the default skin) ?

2. Would it not be more streamlined and better if the source menu and home menu were merged into one screen?
So one press home to get to source/advanced options help etc another press home to exit or b button to go back to coverflow?

I really love what FIX94 and the developers have done with wiiflow, version 4 is amazing but I think this would improve the GUI even more.
I think wiiflow would flow much better for a start and having source menu/advanced options accessed with the home button is natural... also free the b button, for cancelling and other functions.

Just updated the forwarder to v14, changes:
-smalled down the forwarder size
-now loads via IOS58 and AHBPROT patched out
-supports meta.xml arguments
-can use new priiloader magic word
-added support for that special elf format of linux apps
Download via both official svn and mod svn

I tried to install the new v14 of the forwarder but i get an error -1035, anything I´m doing wrong?

Same here, how I fixed it was to first UNinstall the old forwarder channel (and you can use the new wad to uninstall it with too) then install the new one.
