make a separate INI for each one with the only difference being the magic number and the file type. You can also put them in separate folders and change the rom paths in the INI's if you're using the same file extension for multiple consoles (E.G. .ZIP).

The WiiFlowiki has a good explanation with .ini examples and more information on how to setup WiiFlow to your liking bud.

hmmm are u using genplus gx or retroarch? i dont think zip is supported for genplus gx someone correct me if im wrong here as for your cover problem double check your magic #s and id suggest making separate folders for covers i.e x:\WiiFlow\boxcovers\Master System then edit your ini

[PLUGIN]
magic=53454771
coverColor=000000
coverFolder=Master System
fileTypes=.sms|.zip
romDir=genplus/roms/MS
dolFile=genplusgx-mod7.dol
bannerSound=Sega_MasterSystem.ogg
displayname=Sega MasterSystem (GenPlus GX)
consoleCoverID=sega
arguments={device}:/{path}/|{name}|{loader}

edit: zip is supported just make sure u only have one rom file in there

 

[PremiumSaltine]

Is it possible to have wiiflow show Wii and Gamecube games all at one time? Like just have them mixed, without having to switch between the two lists?

ok so as it turns out they were in zip files but they needed to be unzipped to show the .sms files and it reads as sms files through genplusgx

yes
created a new music folder root usb
changed path, do not start

is all your homebrew on usb? or are you using sd? i use sd. you here the music when starting wiiflow. that's because it still reads that folder if using.
when you choose partitions (usb1/sd) just open were the info for wiiflow is sd/usb. then reload cache. if no covers default covers show. click on one of those an it will change to your selection.
( this is how mine set up, changing to usb so i can add my music library.)
the only problem is i get double covers for 1 song.? I JUST UPDATED. (clean install) even when choosing the plug in it is double (clicking on one chooses both.). also how if i can make an augment to the plug in to read folder with play list in it.(m3u file). the playlist has to stay in folder in order to work.

FIXA94 your the man. wiiflow is great thanks man.

wtf? @ the post above. buyme205? more like --ow me.

I'm using all USB
can you tell me your settings
music_player.ini
source_menu

 

[shortz1994]

how are you saving the ini that was posted? are you just copying to a note pad an just "saving" or are you "saving as" ?
i just transferred my wiiflow folder to usb an made the correct adjustments an everything works . you need to save the ini as just that.( save as. wiiflow.ini) from drop down menu of not pad. no augments or nothing needs to be rewritten.

Yes. Use source menu and click "B" on Wii and GameCube icons. Don't know if it works without setting up a source menu.ini though. Try it out and if it doesn't work u can set up a basic source menu with a few icons. Refer to WiiFloWiki for more info.

 

[Maxternal]

I just added the GX Crap Autoboot plugin to OP.

The benefit of this one is that not only does it work for Wii games like the WiiFlow Crap plugin but it ALSO works for GameCube games.

As always, see the plugins thread for download link.

It just cancels out of the menu when I push B. I setup source menu and it shows the icons, but B just cancels that too.

U set up a source menu.ini? Which rev are you on? I recommend r886+. Also make sure that you press "B" on the icon itself otherwise it closes the source menu. You should get a highlighted ring around the icon when you push "B" on it.

I tried a few in the releases in the 800's, even 886, but the artwork was loading really slow. 888 loads just fine and the selector works like it should. Thank you all for your time.
