Would you please fix the broken Game Installation feature ?

Should this be a basic feature of a USB Loader ?

Please make it work on WBFS partition, at least.

Thanks a LOT !

Just out of interest what is the bug with the corrupted covers? When I download them they corrupt unless they are flat covers. When I use Wii Game Manager to download them they are still corrupted in Wiiflow. Has anyone been able to get this to work?

Actually i dont have any problem with this loader, everything is working straight from the SD, so my suggestion is avoid using USB devices to store wiiflow data, use it just to store your isos.

Why has wiiflow turned soo buggy. Wish Hibernatus was still working on it -_-


Use the recommended stable release and it will not be buggy.

Anything else is a beta and will have bugs in it.

So deal with it

Because your so called "everything" is, actually, just "something" you used.

Go try the game installation from disc.

i have an 8GB USB PenDrive and i have to keep changing isos all the time so I dont care 'bout that feature, i rather use rawdump to get the iso in my PC and then install it in my usb using WiiBackupManager.

sorryy..>..> Or that much at all.
I won't say that. Just cause I haven't used wiiflow in a while since I changed to fat instead of wbfs.
and when I went to check out Wiiflow,Covers didn't work, fat didnt work at first. Until another revision. worked good.
except the cover bug and stuff..
Half awake -_-

Did you forget to mention that in order to get Rawdump to work a LG Gdr specific dvd drive may be needed? could not be
accessible to anyone

Then use Wii_DVD_Dumper from Waninkoko.

Come on guys your are drowning in a glass of water, there are many solutions in order to get the isos.

You can get the covers working by having WiiFlow point to the SD card for the cache folder. Not one on a USB drive.
So you can change the wiiflow.ini to point to sd/wiiflow/cache instead of usb/wiiflow/cache.
Obviously create that folder if it is not already there.
Then, once the covers have been downloaded, copy the cache folder to the USB drive, then change the path in the wiiflow.ini back to usb/wiiflow/cache.
You will have to do that every time you put on a new game though.
Hope that helps.

It's perfectly fine if beta releases are, well, beta. It's just I'm a little worried since there hasn't been a stable release for a while. I'd love to create themes and finnish translation, but I don't want to beta test this again...

We are demanding quite a bit from these guys, FAT32 and NTFS, true HermesV5 support and a bunch of little options and tweaks. If it takes 100 beta versions to test it all out and get the greatest loader ever then so be it. I"ll try them all and be thanktful someone is still working on this project cause I know I can't.

Keep up the great work!

Hello

Is it safe to install the forwarder without preloader or bootmii installed on boot 2 ?
Is there an app to check wads integrity before installling them ?
