[mclow]

Excuse me, could someone please help me...

I'm trying to change my startup-animation for r439 (Wiiflow 4.1.3).
(I'm using Devkit-Pro, latest libogc and a SVN-tool)

But it's not making a new dol. Even if I don't change anything!
When I get to "wiiflow.pnproj", ll I get is this error-message:

source/gui/video.cpp:115:17: error: `TVPal576IntDfScale' was not declared in this scope
source/gui/video.cpp:115:51: error: `TVPal576ProgScale' was not declared in this scope

Could anybody tell me how to fix this?

Just tested it: same problem with rev 440 and 441...

Update libogc : http://sourceforge.net/projects/devkitpro/files/libogc/libogc-1.8.11.1.tar.bz2/download
or change TVPal576IntDfScale to TVPal574IntDfScale and TVPal576ProgScale to TVPal574ProgScale.

Quick FYI for emu fans (though many of you will probably know already), Retroarch was recently updated to 1.0.0.1. and all plugins, after a quick rename, work just as well on wiiflow as they do in the emu. Not entirely sure if you can save configs from wiiflow, and the Neo Geo Pocket core has the same controller problem as it currently does on the emu itself obviously. The regular fba core also seems to work great too - from my limited testing anyway, so you can finally update from 0.9.8 there! Worth updating: GBA emulation is far faster now, also lots of small improvements such as controller autodetect...

why isnt call of duty black ops play in wiiflow it always brings me back to system menu ive tried ios250 and ios 224 but still no luck ive also used the cIOSX_rev20b-Installer any help would be great

I was testing 1.0.0.1 and found everything working fine except fb_alpha.dol (code dumps) though single core dols (cps 1 2 neo) work fine
so all new files will be added next time except fba

 

[mightymuffy]

except fb_alpha.dol (code dumps)

Really? No problems here, though my testing was hardly extensive.... pretty sure I got it working no problems, and as the kids have just vacated the downstairs TV I'll retest, and edit in a few.....

EDIT: Yeah runs fine here! Just tried Dogyuun, DonPachi, Logic Pro, Simpsons and all fired up no problems. Maybe it's a setting you've got abz? I remember my 0.9.9. CPS1 & 2 cores dumping and found out it was because I had diagnostics set to enabled... perhaps it's something similar for you? Definitely got it running here anyway.

I deleted all settings file too.
Can you share your retroarch config file? I m using the default added by fix94 long time ago

unfortunately same results

[mightymuffy]

Gah, had a feeling it wouldn't help much... hopefully the dump can provide the answer if Fix has the time! It does work on mine though, I'm not fibbing
...wonder if anyone else has had a do on here...?

[1/18/2014 3:03:21 AM] Rhode B. Wright: I found the problem
[1/18/2014 3:03:23 AM] Rhode B. Wright: after testing
[1/18/2014 3:12:43 AM] Rhode B. Wright: ill see if I can explain it:

when I boot wiiflow like normal, it does not freeze
when I add a new game to my HDD through my computer, when I start up wiiflow, it will freeze the second the game is attempted to be loaded into the cache
[1/18/2014 3:13:25 AM] Rhode B. Wright: I did a test where I added a new game, RMCE01, to my collection, and everytime I started wiiflow with a game right next to RMCE01, it will freeze RIGHT THERE
[1/18/2014 3:13:36 AM] Rhode B. Wright: I changed the internal to look at Animal Crossing, pretty far away from RMCE01
[1/18/2014 3:13:44 AM] Rhode B. Wright: and it took wiiflow a couple seconds to freeze instead
[1/18/2014 3:13:54 AM] Rhode B. Wright: giving me enough time to hit the "Clear Cache" option, which fixes it

Very strange behavior yes, but it happens in all versions of WiiFlow, regardless of theme.

I had a similar problem a while back. The culprit for me were a bunch of 0kb ghost cache files that had been created at some point. Once I deleted all the 0kb cache files, everything worked again.

why isnt call of duty black ops play in wiiflow it always brings me back to system menu ive tried ios250 and ios 224 but still no luck ive also used the cIOSX_rev20b-Installer any help would be great

COD Black Ops requires base IOS 57 in slot 250, at least that works for me. If you have the 3.02 version of PimpMyWii it will install the cIOS's for you automatically.

 

[Th3-Blu3BoMb3r]

I tried pimp my wii but it fails to install the correct ios's and installs the old versions I had instead

 

[MassiveRican]

It's another pimp my Wii fail lol. U can also use ModMii to d/load the c/IOS and do a manual install with a WAD manager.

 

[spacepimp]

Modmii can also open your syscheck and customize the selection of wads downloaded to your needs.
Cool.
I've used it for years.
+1 ModMii
EDIT: Yawmm seems to work ok from USB, if you're wondering which wad manager to use.

I've never seen PMP fail. Did you use the Install cIOS menu option and select the correct version and base?

If you can't follow the onscreen menu let me know and I'll send screen shots but it's pretty hard to screw it up.
