alright then, files already in extracted pack weird png deleted and I can live with your final burn png
I like the idea to have a different set for 2D, smallbox and full covers sources
in case you want to edit/change/add new pngs just let me know so I can update accordingly
when you feel that the set is done I'll make a new 7z pack with latest wf dol (and hopefully with a full custom_titles file containing all arcade game names)

edit: here's the extracted folder with the pngs: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/h447kcbtbwcqkq3/a7sXMf85GY
if you still have the original final burn image you can make the background dimmer with less contrast in case you want to change it

These are the only changes/corrections.
I'm sure I'll come up with updated designs when the mood takes me - and I'm still open to suggestions, but that is sourceflow small_covers v.1 complete.

EDIT: Can you rename vba and vba2 to vbagx and vbagx2?
That's a big doh from me.


EDIT#2 - Couple more (LAST!) corrections -

fledge68 I just tried port switching with two HDDs hooked up and the one in port 1 isn't even showing up though I selected port1 in startup settings.
 
fledge68 I've tried deleting the sourceflow cache over FTP and directly from the drive - but wiiflow just refreshes the cache from the source_menu buttons - I can't get it to load the covers from the small_covers folder.
BTW, wiiflow automatically refreshes the sourceflow cache without me first accessing the source_menu or "reload cache" using the home menu- it just does it.

EDIT: I'm using r1022
 
Yes, my birds are no longer angry. I had to find another source.
Tried different sources, but keep having issue with both games (Angry Birds, and Just Dance 2014) :(
I enclose wiiflow log below, in any case anyone can help.

There something strange. I used to use wiiflow4.1 with nandemu, and migrated to 4.2, in a clean manner (brand new wiiflow folders, did let it generate seetings, etc, no more nand emu for now).
Still, when I launch games that work on 4.2, I still see the blackscreen with white progressbar on the bottom: I thought this came when I enabled nandemu on 4.1...
As I have not enabled nandemu on 4.2, I find it strange to still have that progressbar...And log agrees there is no nandemu.
Anyway progress bar does not show-up on the 2 games with issues: Wii just seems to reboot to homescreen.

Other strange thing (which is longstanding) log mentions wiiflow data in partition1: all my stuff is in partition2, partition1 is a EFI/GPT partition which wiiflow should just let alone.

Thanks for any help.

Does wiiflow even start? where is wiiflow? on sd or usb?

try r1023. seems i made stupid little mistake back when i added the sourceflow. should be fixed now

Yeah it starts up, but it's as if it's still set to port 0. ini is on the SD.

Try converting the wbfs file to ISO then convert the ISO to wbfs with WiiBackupManager
This is what made the game work for me
P.S> the nonworking game won't show the banner when selected but once converted the banner will show fine
 
fledge68 I was hoping you'd be ok making a change to the settings menu page? If the "Startup Settings" menu launch button could be renamed to "Startup/Source Menu" - it might make things easier to find.
Thanks
p.s. no rush, just if fancy, y'know...
 
every time in wiiflow i click on colicovision it asks to select the partition, i select sd and the games appear. Then when i exit back to the source menu and try to go back to colicovision it wants me to select a partition once again, and doesnt stay why wont it stay on the partition i selected?

sounds like you are using the official wiiflow 4.2 version. plugin partition selection was fixed in r1008 after the official release.

Could someone make a box cover for the Today and Tomorrow Channel?



Would be really nice if you could so I don't have a "?" anymore. Willing to pay you for your time too if it looks nice.
