Hacking WiiFlow - an open source GUI USB-Loader

[fledge68]

Trying it out now. The Game Partition text and button are still underneath the user.

I didn't change that

I didn't change that

I'm sorry, I thought that was included in "other small probs" along with the user in Nand Emulation Settings. Ayatus fixed that in his mod above. Not trying to be a dick, honest.

One more thing I feel I should mention, with HQ covers on, Custom banners are hit and miss. Sometimes they show up, other times you go back to a game and you get the default banner. Also, and it may be due to a lack of understanding on my part, but the cover buffer isn't working well on HQ. I went from 20 to 40 to 80, and there doesn't seem to be any change. The source menu is all good though!

I need the pal version because I got an old save file for that one

Usually u can convert the save with SaveGame Manager GX and a little file swapping.

fix for wad user labels and added for boot menu

edit: also using HQ covers isn't recommended. the fix for the source menu is just a work around. the HQ coverflow still has some memory issue.

When I use WiiFlow, it doesn't detect most of my games. In fact, it only detects one whereas I have 6 on the NTFS HDD in the wbfs folder and CFG Loader and USB Loader GX detect them all. Why might this be the case?

Wiiflow does not detect the games automatically (this choice was made to keep it running fast).
You need to reload cache manually...(menu under the home button)

OK, thanks! Will do.

Tried it, WiiFlow now works but crashes to a black screen while loading games.

Which version are you using and do you have it on an NTFS/FAT32 volume /partitions and are you using an SD card?

You can try deleting the wiiflow.ini file in your apps/wiiflow folder. Sometimes that helps particularly if you are upgrading from an old version.

I believe I'm using 4.1.1. I'm trying to load from an NTFS HDD. I'll try deleting the ini and see if that helps.

Hmm, problems with all three main loaders? (yes i follow all the loader topics)
Looks more and more to be a problem with the USB hard drive... maybe you should try what Cyan suggested KesanGun..

Can we have a source menu for this as well? Mastershoes is currently updating icons for me, if you want to talk to him.

 

[Ayatus]

mamule does the source menu.

 

[Etheboss]

There is a source menu available on the Tgames forum in the Orchid topic..

 

[drakorex]

Is it up to date? Alot of new plugins have been added in recent months.

 

[Ayatus]

Nope, it isn't up to date.

Works great, thanks! now I can update all my themes. This feels like a winner! As for the explorer, the only thing I can think to suggest is it would be nice if it returned to the page with the folder you entered, when you go up1.

Wiiflow recognizes my emunand games, but if I try play a game, wiiflow load it==>black screen and return automatically to wiiflow. Using neeko2 channel all them work fine.

In wiiflow, I load in default options, I have seen about try the load mode "neek2o" but in the last wiiflow version I can't see this option.

Is there any way to modify trough wiiflow.ini?

 

[mamule]

Nope, it isn't up to date.

updated but not available

I solved my problems of before.

I've noticed wiiflow problem when selecting sources with "+" button. If you select GC or Wii + only one pluggin but not in the first page of the source_menu, then you wont see the games corresponding to that pluggin.

for example: I select Wii in the first page of the source_menu and press "+" on gameboy plugging in the second page of the source menu. The result is that only Wii games will be shown ^^


edit: about the problem I had when loading a vc/wiiware game:
First of all i need the SD inserted, I thought it was not necessary. Why I need SD inserted? I have bootmii as boot2.
Second, I need run the wiiware games with B+A button, otherwise after black screen it return to wiiflow.
