Hacking WiiFlow - an open source GUI USB-Loader

[AbdallahTerro]

And that is the main reason you are not allowed to push stuff into my google code and git, talking about completely wrong things which are just not true, the only reason I paused working on the project is because by now I have so many other wii and wiiu projects to work on and university on the side which also takes up a ton of time. I never said anywhere that I "quit" wiiflow did I?

I never asked to push stuff, and as you know I worked on wiiflow and nintendont for the fun of it and to learn some coding skills.
And good to know that you still look forward to update wiiflow one day, I thought you quit because it has been more than a year since the last update.
Thanks boss for all your hard work

I know it may take some doing, but I feel it is still worth looking into... May per-plugin settings be considered? Right now, the game settings in plugin mode are just "there" containing nothing that has any effect on the emulators that are launched. It would be nice to have settings pertaining to each of the emulators individually.

Its good to know you did not quit to work with wiiflow

You know they are constantly updated, so you may try the link in my sig it has the latest dol and should work fine. I'm using 1054 mmod along with nintendont mmod with no problems since a very long time

P.S> FYI, As for the installation and cover issues it's a known problem for some users even when using the official dol since wiiflow has a memory bug that causes weird stuff. This is mainly what led the devs to quit updating it and adding new stuff

the true I've never had problems loading boxcovers with wiiflow, music, cheats and even games, just copying games to my hard disk and Nintendont

Does anyone have info on emulator channels that work with a stealthed USB hard disk on the WiiU?

I know Fix94 has WiiFlow and Nintendont working on stealthed drives but I was wondering if any emulator channels like NES, SNES Sega etc can similarly work off of a stealthed HD.

Hi everyone,
with changes of google and github, is there any site to download the official beta versions from Fix94?
R1076 was the latest one, but I cannot find a valid download anymore.

Btw. I still use the great wiki you created.
https://sites.google.com/site/wiiflowiki4/home
Just awesome. It would be great if some could add nintendont to that wiki.

https://code.google.com/p/open-wiiflow-mod/ is the newer (but still shutting down) repository. The download link on the front page still works.

@papermanzero, there is Always this > https://github.com/FIX94/open-wiiflow-mod
Wiiflow is not worked on at the moment, but if @FIX94 decides to do some work on it himself then it will be there..

you can remove the source_menu ini entry and disable it in the wiiflow.ini section iirc, also editing theme ini files might have an effect.

you need to edit custom_title.ini file in your wiiflow settings folder
should look like this:

P.S> This is already found in the masterpiece pack for all arcade emulators so that you don't have to bother yourself

Whats the differences between the latest stable version 4.2.1 and mod1076/1054? Ive had issues with mastermod and want to compile my own setup from scratch. Are there any features that I might miss out on?

mainly nintendont support and 1054 uses the older more stable memory manager

Hi, sorry for the bad english.

Hi guys!

I wanted to say, first off, that I really like Wiiflow, and thanks for creating and supporting it!

However, I do have a question. I have it set up and originally I just had two usb thumb drives with isos on them to run my backups - one had Gamecube isos on a FAT 32 format and the other had Wii isos on a WBFS partition. Both work great and also have the covers and banners. No issues whatsoever.

However, I just recently got 2 more usb thumb drives to hold more Gamecube backups and Wii backups. The first that has gamecube backups is exactly the same as the first usb drive I have with gamecube backups - FAT 32 and just the isos in the root. The second usb has the Wii backups, and instead of being WBFS, it's all isos in an NTFS format.

Here's the issue:

When I plug in these new usbs and load up wiiflow, they don't show up immediately like the other usb backups do, with covers and whatnot, and when I try to download covers or reload the cache to display them, nothing happens. However, I can go into File Explorer and load up the iso files themselves just fine and the games play perfectly as well.

I'm just wondering why only those first 2 usb devices seem to be the ones that wiiflow recognizes and allows me to download covers for, and not the new ones.

Can anyone shed some light on this issue?

Thanks so much.

Oh nice you're still around ;-)
Happy new year too man.
I've bought a Wii U to my son this christmas, so I may need some help on finding all that is needed to get Wiiflow to work on it lol
For the moment i'm trying to get at a low price one of these "golden" games to hack it.
See you soon !!
