- added 'no SSL only' as a private server choice (issue #217). this allows you to patch games on your own with other wifi server url's besides wiimmfi.
- added private server as an option for nand wiiware games.
- added 480p pixel patch as option for nand wiiware/vc games. seems to only work if apploader is set to ON. loading via main dol is broke for the time being.
- mainly just some various code cleanups
- added 'Always show main icons' option page 14 of main settings. this prevents the main screen icons from hiding.
- fixed a minor issue when changing a plugins rom dir but then exiting the source menu via B button without selecting a source, it wouldn't reload the current coverflow but now it does.
- now when you have only the front cover image wiiflow will use that platform's custom blank cover image for the spine and back of the cover.
- made source menu setup menu's more noticable when you switch from select a source to selecting a plugin and back. before it was hard to tell you had moved to a new menu cause they look nearly identical.
- added wiiflow/covers/homebrew_small folder so when using homebrew smallbox mode you can use your own custom covers instead of the apps icon.png
- fixed music resample to 48k option on main settings to not crash wiiflow if only one song file in wiiflow music folder.
- fixed displaying music title when you only have one music file in wiiflow music folder.
- fixed saving and loading enabled plugins upon exit and startup. This stops the "no plugins selected" message upon returning to wiiflow when you previously used the Select Plugin Menu.
- fixed custom backgrounds after using the Select Plugin Menu.
- fixed the Source Menu to display source buttons properly when switching tiers or pages.
- fixed refreshing Source Menu buttons after using the options menu to hide them.
- fixed cache covers progress bar to not show when viewing sourceflow and its tiers unless wiiflow detects that a cached cover is missing.
- fixed source on start to only work if their is a source menu.
- cleaned up some of game cios loading.
- hopefully removed split second green screen when sourceflow on startup is used.
- fixed startup for wiivc (although untested).
- made changes to cios loading on startup.
- fixed if wiiflow fails on startup to not exit to HBC unless booted from HBC.
- fixed crash when pressing 1/x or 2/y buttons (change coverflow layout) when no covers are loaded.
- fixed hiding the wait loading animation when using source menu on start.
- fixed exiting source menu on start via B button so covers show properly.
- fixed using homebrew icon.png's with transparency as covers for smallbox by restoring some old code I didn't understand. But ... sometimes the icon.png textures (.wfc) are saved as empty black boxes.
- if you get an empty black box for your homebrew cover image you can select the cover and click the 'X' delete icon. it will not delete your homebrew app but will instead delete the cover texture file (.wfc). Then you can do reload cache and hopefully your cover will be fixed.
- tried fixing cacheing covers after downloading them. works sometimes. It's a low free mem2 error if using rhapsodii shima theme and having a lot of games. if covers do not appear after downloading then i suggest rebooting wiiflow and doing reload cache first thing or switch to wiiflow's default theme and then download the covers and then switch back to rhapsodii shima theme.
- reverted change in 5.4.0 that may be the reason some users have issues loading games from sd card. especially on vWii.
- changed wiinertag to riitag and cleaned up code for it. More info here - https://gbatemp.net/threads/riitag-gamertag-for-wii-replacement-for-wiinnertag-and-dutag.559500/
- removed dutag
- changed optimmization from from -os to -o2 to hopefully compile better.
- other minor code cleanup.
- fixed setting scummvm cover's color via plugin
- now scummvm list is cached like all the other lists. but still does not use custom titles or titles from the plugins data xml.
- fixed the random bug where covers sometimes were not cached.
- fixed minor memory leaks via gametdb.cpp
- fixed an issue with using custom backgrounds via source menu.
- added the ability to move to next and previous game while on game info menu by using the controllers '+' and '-' buttons
- added the ability to launch a game directly from the game info menu by pressing 'A' on the controller.
- added the abilty to launch super smash bros melee via nintendont slippi. manually edit wiiflow_lite.ini by adding use_slippi=yes under [GAMECUBE]. google nintendont slippi and slippi project to learn about it.
- upped to version 5.4.1
- added 'covers box mode' option to pg 13 of main settings. defaults to ON. set to OFF if you want to use only flat covers. does not apply to sourceflow, homebrew flow, and plugins with box mode set.
- fixed text size of category names on right half of categories menu. They were too small. strangely no one noticed or reported it.
- cleaned up create game list code a little.
- upped to beta 15.
- fixed download cheat file messages.
dlmsg35=Downloaded cheat file has no cheats!
dlmsg36=No cheat file available to download.
- also noted that holding 1/x and pressing 2/y will delete the current cheat files so you can re download if there's a need to.
- fixed source menu/flow to remember tier filenames and the last selected button from each tier. tier names and button numbers are saved in wiiflow_lite.ini under [SOURCEFLOW] so when you return to wiiflow everything will be as it was when you left.
[GAME/SNAP] is the snapshot. width and height are just random numbers. wiiflow sets those. and the texture is of course set by wiiflow. the x and y are the upper left and the only thing to worry about.
[GAME/OVERLAY] is the snapshot overlay for handhelds. same info as [GAME/SNAP]
[GAME/SNAP_BG] is used for 2 things.
1. the dimensions of the window inside the frame. (x,y,width,height) used so wiiflow can center the snapshot.
2. the texture of the window inside the frame. wiiflow has it set to a transparent image. but you can make and use a solid colored image if you like.
the frame is still [GAME/USER4]
- 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.
- removed the hard coded sideflow and shortflow.
- fixed using custom backgrounds whenever returning back to the game selected screen.
- added custom background cleanup to free the memory used by them.
- fixed wfl_as_wiiflow splash image to display its image not the image for wiiflow lite.
- fixed wfl_as_wiiflow name display on 'home menu'. now displays as WiiFlow WFL.
-had to remove wii drive light flashing during wait animation. even though i added NULL to nanosleep() it caused wiiflow lite to freeze right when the wait animation was to start. when i removed it everything works fine. besides the wii u doesn't have a disc slot light.
-note - strangely going from ppc r30 to r32 wiiflow lite boot.dol grew about 24k. also somehow ext_booter.bin is now marked as changed but i don't know what's different.
-updated libcustomfat and libvorbis thanks to GreyWolf
-updated libturbojpeg thanks to Fix94
-fixed cheat menu so cheat names with apostrophe's display properly
- 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.
