- 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.
-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.
- GENERAL hidechannels is now CHANNEL_DOMAIN disable because that's what it is for all the other domains. makes sense to me. :P
- GAMECUBE_DOMAIN always_show_button is now GAMECUBE_DOMAIN disable to match all the other domains.
- so now 'disable' for each domain means show or don't show that view except wii of course.
-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.
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.
-fixed fanart usage
-fixed still selectable banner toggle if fanart is found
-added new setting to the wiiflow.ini, "dml_activity_led" (enabled
by default), in [DML] section, it controls the DML drive light
when the gamecube game is busy
-cleaned up some stuff
currently loaded cIOS instead
-fixed bug of missing remount if no games are found with enabled
NAND emulation which made wiiflow hang
-added information for neek2o
-removed ios reload on boot when wiiflow is in neek2o mode
-made NAND file extraction MEM2 only
-fixed two not free'd memory allocations which could fill the
memory with unused stuff
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
* Moved lots of stuff from MEM1 to MEM2
* Made it possible to select partition for nand emulation (first time config)
* On clean install it will find valid emu nands if they are present in the default folder
* Fixed GameTDB for nand emulation
* Broke background music
* Probably even more
You can select an age from 2-19, where any game rated above is not displayed. It uses the age from the region of the game. 19 is all games. 2 is basically none, because the rating systems start at 3. This operates independently from the current per game lock, so you can still use both. Meaning both conditions have to allow the game, before it will display.
You can override the rating by creating an age_lock.ini file. Just add the id under the domain heading and set it to an age. To set Call of Duty: Black Ops to an age of 5 you would enter this:
[GAMES]
SC7E52=5
There is also an age_lock_default in the wiiflow.ini file under [GENERAL]. This will allow you to specify a default rating for games with no rating info.
plugin coverflow it will replace the nand emu button,
in this memu you can select which plugin should be displayed,
it will work no matter which sort is set, you can select more
than one emulator at the time of course
KNOWN ISSUE:
-background music is missing
- The main settings menu will now only update the coverflow if needed. This means pages 3-6 will return instantly.
- fixed typo in NAND saves text (exCisting). You may have to delete or fix "cfgne26" in your english language file to see the change.
* Made nand emulation kind of noob prove
* Wiiflow will search for a valid FAT32 partition if nand emu is enabled, but no partition is selected
* Wiiflow will now offer to extract the nand if nand emu is enabled, and no nand for nand emulation is available
* Wiiflow will now offer to extract a game save if nand emulation is enabled, a save is found on real nand and no save is found on emu nand.cpp
* Illegal chars for FAT are now escaped the 'd2x' way in the nand file extractor
TODO:
* Add nand extract functions to game config menu's
* Add feature to flash a save back to real nand

for the nes, snes and gb,gbc and gba emulator mod needed for it. The games are read from the default
path of the emulators, that would be "fceugx/roms" for nes for example. To display the games, place the
emulator dol from the link above into wiiflow/plugins.
