lmao, sad but the way you put it, kinda funny.. big failure stamp went across my forehead on that one. Well there goes a request for us then, maybe [member='fledge68'] or [member='fix94'] could add custom_titles.ini support for emu games as well. Pretty please with gummi bears on top .. what.. wtf do u mean u don't like gummi bears

@[member='MassiveRican'], got it working from Source_Menu Thanks again for the help man!

 

[sdoc96]

but still can't access plugin select menu. it freezes for a little while and then restarts wiiflow.

OK, can you upload all .ini files in your wiiflow/plugins folder? Then I can take a look at it in detail.

here you go - http://www.mediafire...812e56d64kpp445

but I did further testing and found out i couldn't start any wii game (all black screens) so i went back to r473 and they are working again. And just so you know I used your dol from mediafire

Same here for me on r759. All Wii games black screen.
However, seems FIX94 fixed the slow cache reload in 759 so there is progress there for sure.

Guys WF rev 756+ have major bugs (internal dol corruption) and Fix is really working v. hard to make drastic changes.
752 works great here, 755 might be stable too but I didn't test it yet.
So for now 752 is my recommendation, I might update the ultimake pack to this rev later today...

So has anyone gotten Wiisx working as a plugin yet?

i was wondering the same thing im working on my psx collection and would love to see a plugin for wiiflow

I've updated the Mega Pack in my sig now it has more source menu icons and carbonik abz rc3 theme too.
The new pack supports more wiiflow plugins (v6 with retroarch stuff) and also has improved cache handling.

P.S. Don't forget to delete the cache\lists folder and gameconfig files in settings folder and optionally wiiflow.ini before using this update

Full info:

And ofc you need the official plugins v6 found here: http://www.mediafire...e6awr8pnzp1ozsq
And full FBA retroarch dol found here too: http://www.mediafire...7m4iosgmiafit4c
or the one in my signature which has both

Carbonik Abz RC3 - Previews

I still need to finish the source menu icons, finalize carbonik and complete the missing cover set.
The custom missing covers will be added later maybe in my next megapack

Have a nice day
Abz

Thanks Abz I updated yesterday using the megapack in your sig, on MassiveRican's recommendation. I was able to get WW/VC booting from Source-Menu for first time ever. I think I'll go ahead and update again using the new pack.

Spoiler and previews look awesome BTW. Thanks again!

how does the boot with neek2o feature work? i have two emunands, one with virtually nothing on mainly for testing and then my main emulated nand which has tons of channels / save data / miis. i've named the experimental nand usb:/nands/nand1 and the good nand usb:/nands/system so neek2o will boot nand1 first since it loads in alphabetical order. i can never get my system nand to boot since it has a crap load of channels, always black screens for quite a while and never does anything.

the system nand is the one that wiiflow sees for my emuchannels. if i select boot with neek2o will it autoboot or does it bring you to a sneek environment? every time i've attempted to try it, it fails or loads nand1.

 

[AbdallahTerro]

Wf uses same way as neek2o channel to run in neek mode. So u need to do the following:
install neek2o channel in case you don t have it yet
run neek2o channel and use 1 + - keys to go to di menu options
change nand to the one u wanna use and save settings
neek will reload
exit back to sm and run wf now

Is it possible to boot straight in to Wiiflow with bootmii or is priiloader the only option for such things?

 

[thatfloorguy]

misunderstood above question.

 

[AbdallahTerro]

Is it possible to boot straight in to Wiiflow with bootmii or is priiloader the only option for such things?

yes with di menu options.
there is no need for priiloader anymore on neek nands (Edit: except for Postloader neek2o mode, until Pl4 is updated to use neek2o90+ boot method)

OK, so NAND emulation is the way to go about? I'll have to suss it out and get up to speed with it.

 

[AbdallahTerro]

@Wanderlei777
for latest neek2o b9 in my sig you need to press 2 for settings and 1 for games/channels

everyone: icons for retroarch + not 64 stuff

please let me know if I missed something here.

 

[shortz1994]

ok all. here is a totally hot off the press theme. this thing took some work to get right. i hope all enjoy.. also using an old/new trick..

If you can don't forget a set of missing covers for TG-16/CD(Which I guess is PC-Engine as well) as well, and I don't think I saw a retroarch SM icon for mednafenpce-fast/TG-16/CD I think that's the only one you're missing NVM i needed to look closer

Edit: BTW Abz I have 19 different source menu sets, all to match the available themes out there, about 15 of those have the same standardized names for their icons, only the ones created by Jiiwah and yourself have a different naming convention.

I've already changed it for myself, but I was wondering if you'd be willing to change your naming convention to match with MS/shortz1994/Pepxl sets for example, and I'm also surprised that your SM icons don't have a selected set just a default one, I like the difference in selected SM icons over non-selected but I don't have that choice with your set and I'm wondering if you'll ever make a selected set of icons to match? I know usually it's just a simple different colored frame or something but maybe you don't like that, just curious thanks for all your customizing and help as usual.

I made a source menu icon set? o.O

I have a similar issue - whenever i make a emu nand with wiiflow and try to use neek2o with that nand it just black screens and i get tired of waiting. when i use a modmii nand neek2o works fine.
