- re made it possible to use SD emunands with sNeek2o r96.
- added vwii r96 beta 9.6 support. wiiflow lite will now look for vwiikernal.bin and emunands must be in a subfolder of vwiinands on USB only.
- when exiting a emunand game using neek2o if on wii it will use the back2nand channel to return you to wii system menu or if on wiiu it will return you to wiiu system channel because returning to the vwii system menu isn't possible.
- when using wiiflow lite and exit to neek2o it will just launch neek2o system menu. from there you can launch wiiflow or wiiflow lite (if installed on emunand) to use cheats on a emunand game. otherwise cheats do not work when using neek2o to launch a game.
banner changes:
- now when moving from banner to banner the background music will not play and you will not see coverflow (for a second) when using full screen banners.
- now on game selected categories menu the banner will change when you change games using '+' or '-' buttons
- added custom banners for plugin games. no longer using trialer thp videos as banners for plugin games. put your custom banners in the custom banner folder plus the plugin cover folder and name them the same as the rom with extension plus .bnr just like how you do for the covers. to make a plugin game banner i suggest downloading one of abdallahterro's custom gamecube dios mios booter channels and use customizemii to change the images (and sound if you want). make sure the images match exactly the size of the one's already there. when changes are done extract the banner and rename it and put it in the proper folder as previously mentioned.
other changes:
- trailer videos still work even for plugin games. again for plugins rename the thp and ogg file to match the rom plus extension and .thp or .ogg. on game selected screen press '-' to start or quit a trailer video if one is available. pressing 'B' or 'Home' will quit the video and return you to the main screen.
- when flipping a cover none of the buttons are available and the mini banner is not shown until you press 'B' to de flip the cover to normal front view.
- fixed game info menu - in case a custom channel is selected and is not included in gametdb it will display a message 'no game info' instead of random stuff from the last game viewed. tested on wiiflow lite forwarder channel.
- now stopping sounds and music early when exiting wiiflow to prevent music from stuttering when exiting.
- other minor coding changes.
- added nintendont video width scale and video offset position options per game. you can set global defualts in wiiflow_lite.ini under [GAMECUBE] as nin_width and nin_pos. width can be 0(auto) or 40 to 120 and position can be -20 to 20 (0 is center normal).
- added patch pal50 option per game for Nintendont.
- removed devolution mount and unmount to speed up loading of devo gc games. not sure why they were there.
- properly fixed nintendont video setting. last commit worked but on my tv with component cables and wii in progressive mode it would always switch to interlace then back to progressive when nintendont started and then back to interlaced when the actual game started. now it just switches to interlaced when the actual game starts unless im forcing progressive.
- fixed nintendont gc disc launching and wii disc launching to use gameconfig2 settings. seems when launching a disc gameconfig2 wasn't loaded and thus no game settings were used. you should be able to use cheats with disc launch now.
- added option to set game settings for a disc launch prior to the actual disc launch. just hold 'B' and press 'A' when selecting the disc icon to access settings menu before launch. just press 'A' to launch disc immediately.
- removed 98% of the gap between unloading a banner and displaying the new banner in game selected menu. old way would momentarily show the game covers and play the background music. now there's only a very small chance you will even see the covers or hear the background music.
- fixed using force progressive patch for nintendont. so when you select a 480p or pal480p video mode it actually turns on progressive mode. only works on certain games just like nintendont. tested on rampage total destruction and working.
- fixed led option for nintendont. seems the setting was there in game settings but was not used when launching a game.
- added skip IPL option per game. used to skip the GC or triforce BIOS if you have it installed. some games may not work with the BIOS so you can set those to skip it.
- added wiimote CC rumble option per game. this works only with wii CC or CCpro and will only make the wiimote vibrate in case you didn't know.
- auto set native control and led to off if on Wii U. they only work on Wii.
- WiiFlow Lite now ALWAYS uses Nintendont Args config and only work with nintendont v3.358+.
- removed USB HID option since nintendont auto detects usb controllers since v3.304+
- added HBC 1.1.3 new ID OHBC. this allows wiiflow to use exit to HBC if you have the new one.
- switched HBC_JODI and HBC_HAXX to the correct DEFINE. they were switched wrong but it didn't seem to really have any affect.
- re added the Aspect Ratio option for Emu NAND games. seems it was set to only show for a wii game but now it will show for both wii and nand game. default is your consoles default. so for example if your console is 16:9 and your game doesn't look right try force 4:3.
- re organized the game settings menu to get all game setting options to show. this will make themes not display properly. themes will need to be edited.
- added gc default settings menu accessed via main settings pg3. pg3 no longer requires you to be in gc view to see them now. wish i had more time to add more default settings.
- addded partition settings menu in place of the single partiton selection on pg1. this means you don't have to select the source view first.
- fixed switching from full covers to smallbox covers in sourceflow and brewflow.
- updated the Help Guide to any new button controls (English only).
- updated the xml file.
- other minor theme and code cleanup
-removed vipatch, country patch, private server and cheats defaults from wiiflow.ini. no need for default/global setting for those options. they all default to off internally in wiiflow.
-now on file explorer menu pressing home btn returns you to device select so you don't have to keep backing up to get back to devices.
-fixed a few minor problems with game configs, especially gc games. now all game config options should work properly.
-now using bitwise operators and expressions on m_current_view to control which sources are selected. no more source= under each domain. just sources= under GENERAL.
-replaced ocarina option from main settings pg3 with channels type option. no need for a global/default ocarina setting. channels type allows you to select real, emu, or both channels types for channels coverflow. which means no more pressing B on config icon to cycle thru the choices.
-fixed a minor bug when downloading covers
-changed newid.ini to use only one domain name "[NEWID]". this fixes a possible problem when downloading covers and using newid.ini and multisource.
-added install wad option to nand emulation settings menu. I know you can do it via file explorer but this makes it easier for newbies to find. plus you can select which nand to install to.
-fixed extract game saves.
-fixed extract nand and install GC game by stopping music and controller input while doing these functions.
-Install wii game is broke. added a error msg stating this and keeping users from using it. funny the code is almost identical to usbloader gx which works and wiiflow doesn't.
-now showing all btns on game selected screen. if wiiflow is locked a error msg appears stating this.
-changed makeDir to make the whole path not just one folder. thanks to usbloader gx code.
-added .ciso extension to gamecube list maker so you can use them with nintendont.
-fixed wii u widescreen option in game config menu. should properly work now. thanks pBullet!
-added a fix for coverflow titles display when coverflow has 3 or more rows. for some reason 3 or more rows caused the title to display improperly.
-removed **disabled** message from source menu. no need for it - was a stupid idea. if you don't want it to display then remove it from your source menu or don't add it. when a view is disabled in wiiflow_lite.ini then only that view icon is disabled from showing on the main menu screen.
-removed titles.ini which wasn't really used except for displaying the return to channel in settings. I googled it and nothing really showed up. it seemed to be the same as custom_titles.ini - it seemed useless.
-removed cacheing sourceflow list. the list is never big enuff to worry about cacheing. plus if you add or remove source btns you won't have to reload cache for the changes to take effect.
-removed max_source_btns from wiiflow_lite.ini - added code to get highest source menu btn so now source menu can have as many buttons as you like.
-removed Manage Languages Menu - restored option to just change wiiflow language. no need for downloading languages and the google link didn't work anyway. when i make a pack all the languages will be included.
-added flat cover options for sourceflow and homebrew view. can be turned on/off via their config menu's accessed via 'HOME' btn.
-added config menu for homebrew view - press 'HOME' btn while in homebrew view to access it. config menu options are - switch apps partition, adjust coverflow, smallbox on/off, and flat covers on/off.
-updated config menu for source menu/flow. options include - sourceflow on/off, adjust coverflow, smallbox on/off, flat covers on/off, and for source menu only - multisource on/off.
-added coverflow layouts/versions for individual plugins - which means each plugin can have its own coverflow layout without affecting the others.
-set HQ cover to default to ON
-made it so coverflow doesn't reload every time you access another menu or change favorites or whatever.
-added error messages to game and app launching if any of the bin files needed for launching are missing. previously whenever these errors occurred wiiflow would just exit without the user knowing why. Now the error message should display before exit so the user has an idea what went wrong. had to move cleanup() back some for the errors to show. hopefully that doesn't cause out of mem issues for users with large game collections.
-added error messages to game config menu. now all config options will show but if you can't use it then a error shows telling you. such as 'use neek2o' will be available but if you set it to on and neek2o isn't installed then an error message shows. added error msgs for extracting and flashing saves too.
-added show_mem=yes/no option to wiiflow_lite.ini under [DEBUG]. manually edit wiiflow_lite.ini to turn it on/off. if set to 'yes' wiiflow will show how much free mem is available on screen. no need to compile wiiflow for this option anymore.
-cleaned up some of the boot up code.
-starting a random game - just hold 'B' and press '-'. no longer press'B' on config or question mark icon and no need to allow it in wiiflow_lite.ini
-fixed using categories to hide GC disc 2's. Apparently this has never really worked right for some time or ever.
-fixed deleting the cached cover texture file for plugin games. Delete cover for plugins only deletes the cached texture file (.wfc)
-fixed favorites and adultonly (parental lock) for plugin games. Apparently I may have broke this a few revisions back.
-favorites and adultonly for plugin games now have their own domains in gamecfg1- [FAVORITES_PLUGINS] and [ADULTONLY_PLUGINS]. just makes it more organized.
-only wii, GC, channels are added to [PLAYCOUNT] and [LAST_PLAYED] in gamecfg1.
-now loading gamecfg1 at startup and leaving it loaded till exit. no more loading it and unloading all the time.
-fixed scrolling for game_info synopsis, credits, and help text.
-made source menu buttons wider for wiiflow default. old 80x80, now 100x80. looks better.
-display music info now defaults to off
-screensaver_disabled now defaults to yes
-show GC view button is now on by default no matter what. the only way it is disabled is if you edit wiiflow.ini manually. this is how all the view buttons work.
-removed hiding homebrew button but if wiiflow locked it won't work or in sourceflow it won't show.
-dump_list is now under [GENERAL] instead of each view. Also only works for Wii, GC, and channels.
-sorting only works for Wii, GC, and Channels now. disabled for sourceflow, plugins, homebrew, and combined view.
-now if no games are found a message is shown with the current path so you can see where wiiflow is looking. (except for plugins)
-removed auto create emuNAND for emuNAND view if gamelist is empty. just go to settings>NAND settings if you want to extract or disable it.
-now when no games are found all buttons at bottom are still accessible allowing you to change the view or go to settings and change current partition or path and even extract your NAND to create a EmuNAND. Or go to Home Menu and Install a Wii or GC game.
-removed auto extract NAND to emuNAND when launching a Wii game with EmuNAND save. Now a message is diplayed saying 'emuNAND for saves not found - using real NAND'.
-made the speed at which cover titles fade in/out almost instantly.
-removed update button from Home Menu. online update code is still there but not used and probably won't be used any more as there just isn't a need for it now.
-removed ftp button from Home Menu and all code for the FTP server. I just use WiiXplorer's FTP server. it seems to work better for me.
-disabled keep USB Alive thread for now. i think there's a possibilty it might be the cause of my SD/USB files getting corrupted.
-removed Btn B and - combo to switch partitions. didn't seem useful anymore.
-redid nand emulation settings menu. looks like this now:
pg1
Select EmuNAND
EmuNAND Enulation
Select SaveNAND
SaveNAND Emulation
pg2
Extract Saves All
Missing
Extract NAND
Select Saves Partition
-no longer blocking Select Plugin menu and View icons when using source menu combined view
-now Select Plugins Menu is like switching to plugin view but you get to choose the plugins first
-now [PLUGIN] partition= is the default partition for all plugins. to change individual plugins add 'romPartition=x' to the plugin ini. x is the partition number 0 thru 8 with SD being 0. this is how my usbloadergx plugin mod works.
- Now disabling View Select icon/button on main screen if you are using Source Menu with multi source select. (easier to handle this way)
- Fixed Source Menu multi select. Now using 'A' button instead of '+' button to select sources. '+' and '-' can now be used to change pages just like all other menus. Added Clear button to clear all source buttons. If none selected defaults to Wii. After making selections use Back button or 'B' to go back.
- Added the ability to select both NAND and EmuNAND Channels at the same time. Three options to do this.
1. Use Source Menu multi select.
2. Switch to Channels View then press 'B' while pointing at Settings icon on main screen. If you keep pressing 'B' it will cycle you thru NAND, EmuNAND, and Both.
3. Use the Plugin Select menu with the new emuchannels.ini plugin and the channels.ini plugin to select one or both. (in plugin view of course)
- Other code cleanup and minor changes here and there to make things work with being able to select both real nand and emu nand together.
- Still have a few things to change but this should be fine for now.
- added flipped cover zoom and movement. so now when you flip a cover you can zoom in and out with '+' and '-' to read and see the back cover better. Use the control pad to move it if you need to. only works with pressing the buttons not holding them down.
- added option to delete a cached cover (.wfc file) for plugins. in case for some reason you have a strange looking cover while viewing plugin covers just select the cover and then click on delete - it won't delete the game or cover png, just the covers wfc file in the cache. then when you go back it should be recreated. for other covers you can just delete and redownload via the settings menu.
- added a space after every comma for displaying genres on Game Info Menu. before = action,adventure. now = action, adventure. to me it looks nicer.
- replaced info/help button on main screen with homebrew view button. removed homebrew view button from the choice of views.
- moved info/help button to Home Menu replacing Settings Button which we didn't need two of.
- homebrew/apps view has its own view now. pressing 'A' automatically launches the app, no need for a selected menu to launch app.
- when returning from a launched app wiiflow now displays the Wii game view. before it would go to homebrew view.
- still need to add a config menu for apps view so we can change the partition, smallbox, reload cache, and adjust coverflow.
- Wiiflow will automatically detect these and add the respective game lists to the plugin game list just like combined view via the source menu.
- these plugins can be selected via the 'plugin select menu' in 'main settings' or via a source btn on the 'source menu'.
- with these plugins the 'plugin select menu' can act like another source menu and they can easily be combined with all the other plugins of your choice.
- New Coverflow theme format. no more emuflow, coverflow, brewflow. now we have coverflow, shortflow, sideflow, and smallflow.
- coverflow is the normal coverflow.
- shortflow is automatically used for plugins if all selected plugins require a short CD style cover such as GB, GBC, GBA, and playstation. if there's more let me know and i can add them.
- sideflow is automatically used for plugins if all selected plugins require a cover on its side such as SNES and Nintendo 64.
- smallflow is used if smallbox is set for homebrew and sourceflow.
- no more need for emuflow= with a source btn in the source menu. it is done automatically now using the plugins magic#
- each flow has its own number of modes/layouts. so now coveflow can have 8, smallfow 1, sideflow, 6, and shortflow 4 or whatever you want.
- adjust coverflow works with no problems. just choose the view first before entering the adjust coverflow menu.
- other minor code changes here and there.
- remember themes are now in themes_lite and the coverflow part is seperated and put in the coverflows folder with the same name as the theme or you can use a default coverflow named default.ini for all themes.
-split coverflow config from theme config files.
-renamed theme folder to themes_lite folder because of the new format and to avoid conflict with wiiflow.
-made coverflows folder in themes_lite folder to hold the coverflow config files.
-coverflow configs must be named the same as the theme configs or you can make one default coverflow config (named default.ini) in the coverflows folder. Then if wiiflow can't find matching coverflow config it will use the default coverflow config.
-to create coverflow configs open a theme.ini file in a text editor (Notepad+) and search for brewflow and then copy from there to the end, create a new text file and paste, make sure the first line is empty, and save the file named exactly like your theme.ini and in the folder dev:/wiiflow/themes_lite/coverflows/
-why did i do this? 1. when you use wiiflow setting 'adjust coverflow' and save it will only save the coverflow part and not mess up your structure of your theme.ini. 2. because now with the default.ini coverflow you can have one set of coverflow layouts for all the themes.
-note: this is Phase 1. Phase 2 and 3 coming. :)
-removed setting emu paths and changing emu presets.
-added select nand setting on page 2 of nand emulation settings. nands must be in a subfolder of nands folder on root of device. example - dev:/nands/nand1, dev:/nands/nand2 etc..
-nand select also works for saves nand in wii view.
-nand emulation settings is only shown if in wii view or nand view.
-if no nand is found wiiflow will create a nand named default in the nands folder.
-rewrote coverloader code a little to make it easier to follow. but still couldn't fix it. honestly it appears there's nothing wrong. wiiflow just acts weird.
- Changed stub.bin to launch the new channel (WFLA) instead of the hidden channel (WIIH) which really wasn't needed. I think whatever Fix94 was going to use it for never got implemented so it was basically just a forwarder channel.
- If you have trouble returning to wiiflow lite when exiting a wii or nand game then make sure in wiiflow_lite.ini under GENERAL that 'returnto' is not set to WDFA. it should be WFLA.
- wiiflow lite still shares the wiiflow data directory with wiiflow for now.
-cleaned up and rewrote some of the startup code.
-Note: This is cleanest and smoothest i've seen wiiflow run. I haven't even noticed any messed up covers.
-Readded the code to paths to be able to change the path where Wii and GC games are kept. But they really should just be kept in dev:/wbfs and dev:/games.
-wiiflow_lite.ini changes under [GAMECUBE] are:
removed video_setting= - was used to tell wiiflow when using DML or Nintendont to set cfg args for video mode. not needed anymore.
dir_usb_games= - is now - gc_games_dir= with default of %s:/games similar to wii_games_dir
dm_widescreen= - is now - widescreen=
screenshot= is removed. was used for DML
wiiu_widescreen= is added. but only used if on a Wii U
-gameconfig2.ini changes as well.
-NMM and DML is still used in theme ini files. may change in a commit soon but that means all themes have to be modified, a big pain in the butt.
-language and help files will need to be updated to remove all DML and NMM crap.
-and default names of images for some icons and btns need to be changed but for now left them as they are.
-other minor changes. Most of it untested so I hope it all works, if not then repair commits will follow.
- For GC games, pages 2 - 4 only show settings based on the gc loader selected on page 1.
- combined game language and video on page 1 to be used for all (wii, channels, and gc). no more seperate labels and buttons for GC.
- Seperated NMM and Nintendont emu memcard because nmm doesn't allow multisave. But they still use the same label and buttons.
- Note themes may have to be edited. gcloader up to line 2, native controls down to line 3, devo memcard up to line 1, and no dvd down to line 4.
- private server
- sicksaxis to be able to a ps3 controller in wiiflow
- support for the latest nintendont with argsboot
- other minor changes that i may or may not change soon.
- credit to Abz, Airline38, and anyone else who helped with coding.
-nintendonts memory card emulation is now enabled by default
-if using a wiiu wiiflow will now automatically use nintendont or devolution instead of the MIOS to boot gamecube games by default
-fixed the bug that wiiflow did not display gamecube games even if nintendont is available
-you can use thp videos for plugins, just use the same name system like covers (the whole game name with extension for both thp and ogg), if wiiflow finds such a video it'll play it in plugin flow by default
autoboot=ID
for channel, wii and gc game buttons or
autoboot=TITLE
for plugin and homebrew buttons.
Replace ID/TITLE with the game ID/Title you want to boot when clicking on the button of course.
-added yet another security check to prevent crashes
-added a new SOURCEFLOW option, remember_last_item (enabled by default), if disabled and you use another sourceflow, wiiflow will not jump back to the previously selected flow but to the first one again
-added sourceflow
-added new source menu config menu access it via startup settings menu. Use it to enable source menu, sourceflow, source menu/flow on startup, multisource (source menu only), smallbox for sourceflow, and clear sourceflow cache.
To use sourceflow you will need to add title= to each source btn in source_menu.ini. Give each btn a title for coverflow to use. sourceflow will use the normal source menu icons or you can add the following folders to your source menu folder - full_covers, front_covers, and small_covers. the first 2 are obvious, the last one is for smallbox if you don't want to use the source menu btn images.
the clear sourceflow cache function is similar to reload cache. use it if you make changes to your covers or your covers aren't displaying correctly.
any questions just ask on gba or irc.
-optimized cover loading times when using hq covers
-fixed wrong game count in the top right corner when using b+minus to switch partitions
-fixed b+minus not working in channel view when no emu nand on a partition was found
-fixed left and right didn't switch pages anymore in the source menu if multisource is not enabled
-updated german.ini
-added autostart ftp server to the startup settings
-added a new section, the [FTP] one to the wiiflow.ini, containing settings like autostart, password, port and allow active mode transfers
-updated english.ini
Note: if you don't want to use it then leave everything alone and don't put any wads in the mios folder.
Note2: if you install a mios outside of wiiflow and use this feature be sure to set current_auto_mios = 0 under [DML] in wiiflow.ini
- Fix for combined view to work properly now
- Fix for last_view to work properly
- Fixed little mistake in explorer when switching emu nands
- removed elmstyle
-fixed the language download crash when trying to download the languages a second time
-added a back button to the language manager
-updated german.ini
- all theme related source menu images and ini now need to go in a subfolder of wiiflow/source_menu/ and be named the same as the theme data folder. this keeps source stuff seperate from theme stuff.
- redid the code for menu_source making it more compact and smaller even with the new additions and shrunk menu_category a little.
- added background to wad installer menu
- made some small coding changes to source menu but still works the same
- updated english.ini
- fixed small wrap and unwrap coding problem for label text
- added changes made to explorer mentioned on gbatemp - mostly just theme related about user labels and stuff otherwise it still works the same.
-fixed the font bug if wiiflow finds a font of the same size it would ignore spacing and weight differences
-gave the file explorer the ability to bootup gc/wii iso/wbfs files
-you can now scroll through the explorer pages with +/- too
in the GENERAL section in your wiiflow.ini, do it like
custom_banner_url=http://www.example.com/{gameid}.bnr
{gameid} gets replaced automatically by the game id6/id3
-added another neek check, may helps with older neek revisions
-replaced the "Disabled" hooktype by "AUTO", meaning it will automatically set the hooktype VBI for you if you want to use cheats but forgot to select a hooktype
-added debugger pause back, it will be automatically enabled if you just use debugger but no cheats (thx skidau for the small fix needed)
this is now done on the fly by just selecting NAND as partition, of
course this function is still completely disabled for neek users ;)
-removed the ios and force cios load options from the ini so they
are only settable in the wiiflow startup menu from now on, that
should stop wiiflow with mixing up ini and nand save options
-added a ini option to disable the source menu, use_source (enabled
by default)
-finally added a "Back" button to the startup menu
are handled separately per player, so it cant happen that for
example the nunchuk button c gets interpreted as classic controller
button left anymore, this change might change the controls slighly
mark icon, it will boot something of the current coverflow
-made screenshot feature working with nunchuck/classic controller
too, just press Z/ZR
-updated the english.txt help
form, just use "MUSIC" as dol name in the plugin ini, here is a
example ini which loads up the default wiiflow music folder:
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/25620767/music_player.ini
oh, and wiiflow only supports mp3 and ogg files
global settings under startup, it will only work with d2x v9 beta,
d2x v10 alt or hermes cIOS 5.0 or later, setting is saved in the
NAND save, so individual for every wii, wiiflow will reboot after
you change it
Note: The All Plugins source option has been removed and choosing either nand button on mutiple selection loads the nand you last used (real or emu)
The categories_v4.ini had to also be slightly modified to work with this. It will now contain a single 'GENERAL' section which contains the number of categories and the name of each. A suggestion, I would use the first 20 for bostonbc's genres and ratings and the next ten or so for movie types(mplayerce) and the next ten or so for misc.
When using more than one source the partition selection and emu nand settings in config are disabled for now.
The source button on the main screen still works the same including the d-pad option.
Most of the credit for this goes to Fix94 for setting wiiflow up for this a long time ago. I just took the 80% of work he'd already did and finished by getting it to work with the source menu. Note there may be some issues.
boot, as soon as you boot wiiflow again/return to wiiflow you will
return to this view once, if you boot wiiflow again then you will
be back in normal wii games view until you boot another game
a cios and which cios you want to force load (0 means the default)
-hopefully fixed most network init problems when doing a ios reload
-updated english ini
-replaced the about button in coverflow with the wiiflow help
-added partition selection to the install game menu
-modified the pos of the go button (themers, update plz)
-new text for translators, "Install Game" in "home7"
-updated english and german ini
-added new option, "force_cios_rev" (default 0 (=disabled)), if you
set it to for example "force_cios_rev=250", then wiiflow will
use IOS250 for the AUTO setting, for reload when using
"force_cios_load" and when switching to emu nand in IOS58 mode
-added more detailed debug prints and on screen information about
the currently loaded cIOS
-minor cleanup in nand get file and external booter
at least something here to show we're not dead how some people asked :P
-sync with 4.0.3
-changed version number to Beta 4.0.4
-fixed bug that force_cios_load broke the wiimote pointer in wiiflow
cheats, save emu, nsmbw + pop patch, wanin cios and hermes cios,
and return to wiiflow again (works here with d2x again)
-fixed some important stuff in wiiflow itself, less corruption
of the dol and more static stuff to get it back to stability
-added new option to wiiflow.ini [GENERAL] section,
"display_music_info" (enabled by default), if you disable it the
information on top of the screen if music got changed will be hidden
dpad
-fixed a bug when pointer gets on screen and some option is selected
via dpad and pointer gets off screen again that the dpad setting was
completely fucked up
-only enable scrolling through settings with dpad if no pointer is
on the screen (to not confuse wiiflow)
-alternative way of booting game with pressing A and pointer not
on screen (for some people the current way didnt work properly)
- replacing strings of 0's and 1's with ASCII characters 33 on up. So if you have a game in category 1 and you have 20 categories, instead of 110000000000000000000 all you will see is ! (ASCII character 33) which is way shorter and will take wiiflow much less time to read. Also if a game isn't in any category there will be nothing after the = .
- also added categories for individual plugins. Wiiflow checks to see if only one plugin is selected and if so then uses the categories for that one plugin. So for example you can have categories for your movies when you only use the mplayerce plugin.
-Fixed favorites_on_startup. renamed it save_favorites_mode. defaults to off. set to yes and wiiflow will remember if favorites was on or off for each view/mode. Still can be set on page 4 of config menu.
-Fixed favorites and parental lock for plugins. Parental lock might come in handy for movies.
-And restored save for categories_v4.ini on exit of wiiflow
- now you can have as many categories as you want.
- copied the idea of selected, hidden, and required categories from USB Loader GX. Thanks Cyan. Checkmark = selected, X = Hidden, and + = Required.
- redid categories.ini layout and renamed it categories_v4.ini so you can copy and paste settings from the old one to the new one. Each view (USB,DML,EMU,NAND,HOMEBREW) has it's own numcategories, category names, and category settings. All games are now seperated based on the view. Don't forget to add 1 to numcategories for the show All mode.
- Replaced All checkbox with CLEAR button which clears all checkboxes so no category is selected and all games will be shown.
- Added features to the Game Selected Categories Menu. Now the title is the title of the current game. You can now press plus(+) and minus(-) on wiimote to go to the next or previous games without going back to previous screen making it easier to setup categories for your games.
- note: all changes will not be saved in categories_v4.ini unless you exit wiiflow or launch a game.
-fixed installing gamecube disc 2 with wiiflow installer
-fixed exit to neek2o for people who got their nand in a folder
-some general cleanup and speedup
enabled wiiflow will always reload to the cIOS even if a normal
IOS with AHBPROT is found (disabled by default)
-enabled skip_list_check by default
-cleaned up a bit
to be divisible with 4 anymore, you can use what you want
-moved sound buffers back in mem2, idk but for wiiflow it gives
a better result
-added mem2 memalign placeholder for new memory manager (after
a week still everything but finished)
-updated other small things, cleaned up source structure a bit
which has enough space left instead of fixed memory in most parts
-fixed alot of things about banner playing, now shouldnt randomly
codedump anymore or things like this, also some banner sounds
which did not play before should work fine now
-removed unused code and added better debug prints
-using some fixed voice for game banner and not always a new one
per banner
-fixed DIOS-MIOS cheats for sure now :P
-fixed possible memory allocation bug in wbfs alloc (thanks to
cfg-loader)
-removed MEM2_memalign since it did not work correctly
-fixed a few wrong memset sizes
- If a 2 disc GC game is launched with Devolution, tell Devolution the location of the 2nd disc*
* Use Wiiflow's game installer to backup your GC game
- Made check for Devolution more safe
- Added some neek2o magic (neek2o r90+ required*):
* Added an exit option to neek2o
* Added an option in gameconfig menu to launch vc/ww titles from wiiflow nand emulation in neek2o instead of cIOS
enabled by default, with the option enabled it will use cfg version
2 for dm 2.1 or higher, if disabled it uses cfg version 1. It will
be ignored if dml_r52+ is set to no since that uses the old boot.bin
method then
game via DIOS-MIOS or Devolution, if you set it to Default it
will boot ISOs via Devolution and FST extracted via DIOS-MIOS
-updated english.ini
-updated german.ini
display gamecube coverflow button still
-added possibility to set diosmios video patching way,
video_setting in wiiflow.ini [DML] section, if set to 0
it will disable all video settings of diosmios, if set to 1
it will use the auto setting (default) and if set to 2 it
will force the video mode
-changed some small things about the menu class opening
-forgot to deinit ISFS on sys exit, may it created some problems
-closing wiimote inputs before reloading IOS
* Now if you click B on ExitTo menu it will go back to Home menu and not coverflow
* If parental lock is on, ExitTo will just exit and not show ExitTo menu anymore
* Now with home in ExitTo you can exit too
* Added/Deleted some sentences
* Updated english and italian translation
means we can properly see if cached or custom banner is loaded
-corrected bug which didnt copy back the banner md5 before writing
banner cache, means all cached banners dont have the security check
anymore
which either got the ID3 or the ID6 as name into wiiflow/banners
-removed security check for banners since some custom banners are
poorly made and not 100% valid
-on game switching just display blackscreen instead of the old
banner in the time of switching
progress, thanks alot to dimok and the whole usb loader gx team
for help and the code for it!
To zoom the banner to fullscreen click the back button, to zoom out
the back button again, known bugs:
-some games fuck up the textures of buttons (e.g. wii play motion)
-if no wii game or channel was selected and you try to launch a game
or exit wiiflow it will most likely codedump
what they do ;)
-fixed bug of game crashing when selecting progressive
as video mode (issue 94)
-updated german.ini
-updated english.ini
-updated theme default.ini
note: if you have the problem of overlapping options, then
its most likely a outdated default.ini, try updating to this
one and see if the problem is fixed
