a4968a91ac - now platform ini is loaded on wiiflow start. instead of constantly loading and unloading it. platform ini is now used for gameinfo, coverflows, blank cover titles, and more.
- fixed some missing cleanup when leaving wiiflow. in particular the pointer textures and closing the language ini.
- new way to handle the custom blank covers by Abz. blank covers now must go in wiiflow/boxcovers/blank_covers folder and must be named after their platform name via platform ini. they can also now be png or jpg.

90fd389aac - improved cover loader by adding 3 tries to load the covers. 2nd and third tries are there just to get any missing covers that didn't load the first time.
- homebrew list is now cached again. if you add or delete an app you must do a reload cache.
- if you use the custom blank covers by Abz they now need to go in wiiflow/boxcovers/blank_covers folder.
- homebrew covers must go in wiiflow/boxcovers/homebrew for full covers or wiiflow/covers/homebrew for 2d front covers.
- now using a cache subfolder named homebrew for homebrew covers wfc files. to keep them separate from the game ID games.
- sourceflow now does cache covers the first time and any time you load a new tier. if the covers are already cached then you will only see the progress bar for a split second.
- other minor changes.
- one problem. when using small_box for homebrew covers it will use the apps icon.png and if it has transparency it will look like crap.

cef988d763 - sourceflow small_covers can now go in a subfolder with the same name as the theme. which makes them change when the theme is changed.
- added notification messages when you delete a cover or banner on manager cover banner menu.
- download cover menu changes: title is now 'Downloads'. removed 'missing' button and changed 'all' to 'download' because there was no difference between all and missing. it always downloads missing covers. in the future i plan to add custom banners download which will download all missing custom GC banners.

bc19bb6c34 -added auto cache covers and banners when you start wiiflow for the very first time or do a reload cache. don't worry it doesn't delete all your cached covers and recreate them. it only makes them if they don't already exist which would be new games you may have added. 2018-11-05 13:57:01 -06:00

796a8d78f7 - added pages 7 thru 11 to main settings. for a total of 19 more settings you can now set without having to manually edit the ini file.
- removed the setting data_on_usb. now your dev:/wiiflow folder must be on the same device/partition as the apps folder. which i'm 99.9% sure most users do.
- added sd_only setting. no need to set it unless for some reason it gets set to true and you have usb hdd you want to use.

2daed253a4 - expanded fanart path chars from 64 to 164. should help with long rom names. thanks wiimpathy.
- made the following fanart changes:
*fanart still auto displays
*only fanart shows. no cover and no game title and no buttons (play, back, favs, etc.)
*to stop and exit fanart press 'a' while pointer hand is on screen. if pointer hand is not on screen pressing 'a' launches game. pressing 'b' exits game selected screen and returns to normal coverflow. d-pad right and left still go to next or previous game.
*fanart can either play once or loop.
when play once is done it automatically clears fanart and returns to cover view.
with looping it will restart the fanart. looping is good for slideshows of game images.
​
looping and play once is determined by the setting "show_cover_after_animation". if set to no then looping is enabled. set to yes for only once.

8825a7b2e7 -added the option to use virtual subfolders (or tiers) to the source menu. works in sourceflow and regular source menu. if you wish to do this you need to edit your source_menu.ini and do the following.
add src_folder=x to each button. x is the number of the virtual folder this button belongs in. 0 is obviously the base folder.

add source=folder when you want a button to open a new virtual folder and folder=x to specify which new folder to open. in folders 1 and above you will need to make a back or up button to go back to the previous folder.

66c17c023c -removed sd only arg and replaced it with eisteinx2's code to detect sd only. with slight change because mountall() is called in other places.
-fixed font glyph x spacing so letters like W no longer bleed into or look like they connect to the next letter. also fixes letters like j's. thanks to usbloader gx freetypegx code.
-changed some font sizing. but had to make button fonts in bold. if not bold then sometime's the text would fade out and be hard to read. something to do with the wiiflow button images being transparent. has no effect on non transparent buttons like carbonik abz theme.
-fixed wfl so time and date in games is correct. thanks aphirst!
-now unloading theme.ini from mem after all buttons and labels are created. this is possible since coverflow.ini is now seperate from theme.ini.
- other minor code changes and rem's put in for easier code decyphering.

4a566375e0 -added flash screen image to appear before wiiflow wait animation. i hope the image isn't too big to cause problems with wfl.
-added 'noflash' arg for meta.xml if you don't want the flash screen image to appear. and no i can't make it load a image from a folder. it must be compiled in the code.
-added 'sdonly' arg for meta.xml for those of you that have everything on SD and hate the 20 second wait for wiiflow to search for usb devices. thanks einsteinx2!
-added meta.xml args support. meaning when a homebrew boot.dol or elf is launched the meta.xml (if exist) will be read for arguments and those args sent when the app is launched. this fixes the issue of custom wait images when changing themes.
-added spanish translation file 'spanish.ini'. thanks to ravmn for sending it to me!

-changed selecting nands type. now only use one source button or the channels.ini plugin for nand channels. goto config settings pg3 to change the nand type - real, emu, or both. this setting will stay that way till you change it. if using old source buttons they will both function the same. 
-added homebrew plugin ini. so now theres wii, gamecube, channels, and homebrew plugin ini files to put in wiiflow/plugins folder and then you can use the plugin select menu as a source menu. you can also add their magic numbers to source buttons and combine them with plugins.
-added support for quakegx mod plugin by oibaff6 and args support added by wiimpathy.

9e85032382 * decided to officially commit my recent update patches *
- fixed gc ciso games to show and launch via WFL. thanks CokeCookie for getting me to fix it. note banners do not show for ciso games unless you use a custom gc banner.
- added (for wii u vwii) to be able to select Wii U channel as the exit to choice either via main cfg pg 4 exit to option or home menu>exit to menu and select wii u menu. 
- removed priiloader and bootmii as exit to options when on wii u vwii
- added random select game option. manually edit wiiflow_lite.ini and under [GENERAL] set "random_select" to yes then while in wiiflow lite main screen hold B and press '-' to have WFL random select a game instead of random boot a game.
- removed region change from savenand emulation types. why? because according to overjoy's commit he said it didn't work yet. it was for a future version of d2x cios when davebaol added it to d2x cios. i looked at all the d2x cios commits from that date to present and didn't see that it was ever added. if i'm wrong someone let me know and i will add it back into wfl.
- made some small bootup changes in case of errors on bootup.
- made some changes to the way wiiflow lite handles emunand switching and other minor emunand code editing.
