Hacking Wiithon 1.0 - IMHO Best WBFS Manager for Linux

[Nollog]

Is good. Works really well.
I'm on jaunty and lenny.

Blue-k, you can use K3b instead of imgburn. If it's for wii games you can ignore the error about the iso not being iso9660.

trying to install this in fedora 11 . Can't get it to compile.

sudo make install
make -C wiithon_wrapper
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/lee/wiithon/wiithon_wrapper'
gcc -Wall -m32 -W -g -ggdb -Ilibwbfs -I. -m32 -static wiithon_wrapper.o libwbfs.o libwbfs_linux.o wiidisc.o rijndael.o -L. -o wiithon_wrapper

make[1]: *** [wiithon_wrapper] Error 1

Anyone help me out ?

@makiolo: I think you haven't got me right

. I mean the Partitions from the Wii iso. Like you know, it has an Update-Partition, VC-Partitions, etc., depending on the game. And with WBFS manager, you can choose which one you want (all, no Update, only Game). These would be Options I like to see here also

.

Btw, my Impressions after some testing:

-Have I done something wrong, or why is it shown under the category "Office"? Definitely not the best choice for this App

-It's extremely fast, amazing copy-speed
-It has some problems with scrolling, the Text disapears when you hold down an arrow key, etc...
-3D-Cover Support would be also nice

-Otherwise, awesome

I know, I know about the other Apps...this sounds strange, but for me is IMGBurn the best App, I love it, and I know that I can trust it. I only want to use that one, not anything other...sounds strange, but I love that App

. Also I use it for XBox360-Backups, and there I realy need an App which I can trust (otherwise I'm banned).

if you follow option 2(without apt-get) you must install dependencies.

If you have dependencies. Try it:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/li...find-lc-191157/

In ubuntu is "build-essential", but intltool its dependencie of wiithon and must install it.
In fedora test package as "libc-dev ...", "glibc-devel ...." , "libc6-dev ...."

If you get to solve it, tell me the solution

 

[makiolo]

Will this run on fedora ok ?

Yes, if you distribution have libgtk 2.14+

eheh sorry . now yes!
The problem is that the GUI manager WBFS I do not like, that is why I wanted to do wiithon different.
We would like to implement this in the future, my idea was to mix all the games and change the colors.
For example:
Partition 1 -> blue (like now)
Partition 2 -> green
partition 3 -> red
Black or gray for games in database, introduced in previous sessions ... etc
It is necessary to display a legend.
With no hard drive connected, everything is black (or gray)
This way I avoid refresh and centralizes all games for searcher.
But this is an idea. I dont will start at the moment.

-It's extremely fast, amazing copy-speed
-It has some problems with scrolling, the Text disapears when you hold down an arrow key, etc...

- eheh yes ... its correct, its cataloger as "Tellico", "Alexandria". You can move this ... or drag in desktop / panel.

- Yes, wiithon its very fast, gui is python but core is C.
- Thx for report, i will change event for refresh cover when "released" key only.

QUOTE(Blue-K @ Jul 6 2009, 09:51 PM) -3D-Cover Support would be also nice

I will implemented in next version but it exist now.

Its easy, open "config.py" and GO last line.

change it:
TIPO_CARATULA = "normal"

by it:
TIPO_CARATULA = "3d"

Purge wiithon (uninstall + delete bdd + delete covers):
sudo make purge

now install wiithon:
sudo make install

New mini-revisión 24 of wiithon 1.0:

- 6 to 15 threads (download covers more fast)
- bug fixed : It had some problems with scrolling, the Text disapears when you hold down an arrow key
- download covers in sort.

Imgburn runs great in Wine.

Haha, just about to say this myself. I use imgburn from wine and it works perfectly. Here's the AppDB page: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?...n&iId=16970


Oh, and [/offtopic]

 

[nl255]

So does this have CISO support, the same as the Intelligent WBFS Manager and wbfs_hermes.exe?

No. You add ISO (4.4GB) and extract ISO. but i want implement ciso.

Hermes does not respect the GPL, and not provided us with the work of others. I wrote emails requesting source, and got no response. Do you know if Hermes has released the source code somewhere?

You can get the source to hermes' wbfs_win from the uLoader package (hzzp://wiinewz.com/forums/attachments/nintendo-news/3161-uloader-version-2-7-uloader_v2.7.rar). Note that this is is for the Windows command line app that has ciso support, it will be necessary to port the changes back to the linux version.

I have translate wiithon to german. How can I use my translation and where can I upload the translation for other users?

Ok i have found it. I must edit some mistakes of my translation so that its sounds better and then i send my translation to makiolo.

Hi I am on a 64bit system and I have all the dependencies however when I try to install I get the following. I've googled my errors and one recommended reinstalling gcc which I've done, but still no luck.

Very nice. I was having to keep jumping on Windows to add games to my usb. Thank you for this.

Speedygonzales thank you very much! Your work will be useful to more people.

I update and add to the stable.

Can you help wiithon in 1.1 too? There will be some new short phrases.

Hi moon, you tried it ?:

sudo apt-get install libc6-dev-i386

It work in ubuntu, If it dont work for you, search in google 'cross compiler 32 bit in 64 bit'.

Thanks nl255. I am looking code(bad style). I've done it and I do not think they have no problem in porting to linux.

 

[noon]

libc6-dev-i386 is already the newest version.! i'm on ubuntu hardy. i'll check out some cross compiling tips. hm looks like you need a higher gtk than what hardy has

 

[Speedygonzales]

in witch directory are the disk pictures and cover pictures saved? i cant find it on my HD

 

[noon]

Upgraded to Jaunty today but still no luck. People on 64bit actually have this working?

Option 1 error log...
Option 2 error log...

 

[makiolo]

Use option "Copy SD" for duplicate covers in other directory. But you want it:
$HOME/.wiithon/caratulas
$HOME/.wiithon/discos

You need "'libc6-i386", not only dev:

Test it. Bye

I can't thank you all enough for the work that went into this. This works about 10x faster then my previous method. I had been running WBFS manager under WinXP in VirtualBox. Copying to and from the drive took forever. Wiithon is much faster. Thanks! Looking forward to future releases.
