- added goto home menu and press '1' to save the current theme.ini with all the new theme btns and labels. note - all old unused btns and labels in theme.ini are not erased and are still there. switch to the default theme and save - it will contain all current new ones and no old ones. then use it to determine which ones need to be removed.
- 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 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.
- 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.
-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
-changed "About" to "Credits" (yea Abz that should be)
-slightly modified the IOS handling on wiiflow boot, the IOS
gets reloaded to prevent a not working patching system and if
the main IOS (default 249) is found wiiflow will reload into it
-in the startup settings, display AUTO instead of 0
-added some security wait before init/deinit ISFS
-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"

- Fixed "CheckSave" functions.
- Fixed feature to flash a save file from emulated NAND back to real NAND.
- Some minor code cleanups and bug fixes.
neek2o: (neek2o r93+ only)
- Fixed return to channel function for titles on emulated NAND
- Added an option in wiiflow.ini: launchwiiflow in "NEEK2O" domain
If this option is set to "no" the "exit to" option in home menu
will launch neek2o SM instead of the "DWFA" channel.
- If the return to channel option is set.. neek2o will return to
that specific title if that title exists on the emulated nand, even
if the title was launched from real NAND.
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
- 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
* 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
currently you can access the settings from it, see the about screen,
update wiiflow, reload cache and exit wiiflow (to exit wiiflow you
can also just press home/start button again in this menu)
-removed reload cache with b button on settings icon
-removed update button from about menu
-updated english help file and english.ini
