Hacking WiiFlow for emulators?

[Reonu]

Hello. I am currently using WiiFlow mastermod for my Wii and Gamecube backups (Gamecube backups in the internal SD, Wii backups in an external NTFS HDD). That's working properly. But now I would like to have a cool interface for some emulators. Like, maybe loading NES, SNES and N64 games from WiiFlow with covers. Nothing too complex, just that. All I can find is extremely old and / or confusing information. I downloaded an "all-in-one" pack and it didn't even work properly. I tried to do a lot of stuff before creating a thread, but no luck

So, I want to setup WiiFlow so that I can load NES, SNES, N64, maybe GBA, games with covers. Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

check wiiflowiki4 it has a decent section about emulators and plugins and source menu setup.
the all in one pack has handy tools to quickly select the plugins you want to keep in case you don't need all,
it's called "source menu editor" and it needs java to work properly.

I installed this pack:

Following this:

I enable all the plugins in wiiflow, I put a .nes rom in fceux/roms (the dir the .ini says), but wiiflow doesn't detect anything when selecting "emulators". What am I missing? Seriously, I just don't understand this... I'm really triying to figure this stuff on my own but I find it too confusing.

What do you mean? I have the ROM in the SD and wiiflow is set to search in the SD. Does it only work via USB for emulators?

 

[AbdallahTerro]

no it works with both
did you reload the cache in the settings?

sorry, setting up this stuff is so complicated, that's why I made my all in one premade pack
you can try using it by just unzipping to the root of SD and copying your roms to standard location:

standard default rom location: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/101209384/...Reference Table + Final Rompath [Abz Mod].rtf

I will try it when I get home. Thanks!
