I have the same reports. Ocarina cheats are not working for Wii games.
Loading GC games just go to black screen, I have tried DIOS MIOS Lite and Devolution. Results in black screen and having to hold power button to turn off.
I know a later version of Wiiflow worked for loading GC games, but not this one.
On 725
 
Not sure if this has been addressed but ocarina cheats are not working on my part.
USB-Loader-GX and CFG-Loader are not giving me that issue, just WiiFlow.
For me cheats are working fine, tested both wii sports resort and mario kart wii, using both d2x v8 final and hermes cIOS v5.1 rodries mod and it worked all four times.


 
i just tested these "problems" in r725... cheats works fine with both Wii games and Gamecube games. DiosMios is working without any problems here.
 
I'm not sure if there is an FAQ for these types of problems but if not maybe one should be made.
To suggest things to try when things aren't working such as reloading the cache.
Thanks Fix94 will try that.
 
Cheats work fine here also.

On a side note/question, Is there a repository of THP files I can plug into WF to try...?
Also, when themeing my system, everything works as it should except for the pointer. Any ideas what I am not doing right?
 
Reloading the cache didn't work.
I even tried deleting all the cache files, still no go.
R725 would not auto boot from priiloader for whatever reason.
I'm back on stable 4.0.1. Will try installing the IOS's you have however I think I already have them.
But that should not affect why GC loading isn't working?
Working just fine in GC-Booter. Ug
 
I'm attempting to make the switch from cfg. I managed to get plugins all up and running (other than scummvm, but thats for another day). My emulators and GC all work fine. My Wii games all appear properly, but no game seems to load. I have the most recent d2x installed as 250, with another cios on 249 that was loading wiiware forwarders in cfg. I also have hermes cios on 222, 223. The Wii games are stored as wbfs files in an NTFS partition. I'm using the most recent revision of wiiflow. Any ideas on how to address this?
May i ask what other cIOS you use in slot 249? This info can be important because wiiflow depends on a d2x v8 or higher cIOS base 56 installed there, wiiflow has an auto (c)IOS select system and uses base 56 a lot, because 99% of the wii games start with it.
 
when 2+ of categories are present we get this buttons overlap

@fledge68 heeeeeeelp :)
Does it only do it on that theme? what about the default theme? The only thing that I can think of is to check that themes ini (Carbonik) and look for CATEGORY/PAGE_BTN, and then MINUS and PLUS and delete them from the ini. looks like it was set there from the old version of categories menu when the ALL check box was in the lower left.

so after an all nighter of trying to get wiimc to just launch with out going through main screen.( were you choose sd/usb ).
can't get it done. all though wiimc will an can launch from wiiflow n also returns to wiiflow.(just as mplayer will do.) an i can use it with out it beeing "buggie".(again this is also after i choose sd/usb.).
i found wentstorm's mp3 player. an made this into a plug in. this launches the mp3's just as mplayerce launches movies. abut for mp3s. an i have coverflow. for my collection.
i know not everyone likes mp3 player. cause it doesn't support acc,ogg an other file. but it does what i want it to do.( gives a coverflow, so i can see my Led zeppelin, Black Sabbath.)
an now i'm a happy camper. :)
great work on this version fix94. every thing loads an run smooth as butter.(hot butter that is.)
*but at last it keeps code dumping so not so stable :( . but at least I know coverflow through one of the players are possiable. since mp3 player is open.just need a good coder. not taking away any thing wentstorm has done. ;) his app does what it supposed to do.

Gimme a pic of such a codedump.
see that's the problem, i don't really care that it happen.(code dumping.)i was just trying to get coverflow/wiimc working an booting for my music like mplayer will do with movies... i'm prefectly happy booting wiimc like i have it.( selected plugin, an have a custom cover, showing wiimc.) clicking the cover will boot wiimc/hitting home button in wiimc,returns to wiiflow.(made a theme that made wiimc look like it's part of wiiflow..just no coverflow. :( ). it's not like it was a big deal, just something i wanted to try. would have been cool. if had did..
 
But I have a nice code dump. Only happens when i start wiiflow r725 from HBC with my custom theme on.
Otherwise wiiflow works perfect for me

Ah ok, I was assuming it checked what cios was where. I changed my 249 and everything works great now. Thanks a lot.
 
Here's a look at the new WiiFloWiki I've been working on. Still very much a work in progress.

hi am new here.
do not know if I'm right here with my problem.
when I start the scummvm plugin, I don't have at the beginning of monkey island 2(german) the keyboard.
I can not answer the safety query, because there are to write a few numbers.
is there a trick?
 
But I have a nice code dump.
That codedump is not really nice, I checked it and it crashes in reading a WAV file, I got no real idea what can crash in reading a simple WAV file I must admit, may check if the paths to it are really correctly set in the theme ini and if its a compatible one with wiiflow (just check themes which work in booting)
 
Are there any working themes? all I've searched and found were from before the dml update so the buttons aren't updated and it looks weird :(

Thanks Fledge68 for solving the overlapping buttons bug,
Regarding the Wiki I've already updated the neek2o guide with cool stuff and more handy tips for fully working WF/Neek combo if you want to update the wiki
(you still have the old post in the wiki) :)

Have a nice day
