-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 the way coverloader checks for a matching cover .wfc cache file. coverloader still acts strange sometimes or occasionally causes DSI exception.
-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
-made our cover loader much safer (thanks ALOT seam for all the help getting that done)
-fixed a cleanup bug in cover png loading which might caused some memory leak
-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
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
banner sounds stopped working
-added plugin subfolder cache file creation to prevent overwriting
on same filenames based on the coverFolder option in plugin inis,
"subfolder_cache" in "EMULATOR" domain, enabled by default (thx
matt0620 for base patches)
in the plugin menu
-using the newly created sort function for covers too now so we dont
need to use two separate ones (covers should be sorted same way still)
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
-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
- added custom missing covers support. Totally optional - without them wiiflow will display the usual blank question marks or theme related ones just like normal. Does not affect downloading covers or manually putting covers in wiiflow's cover folder. Wiiflow still checks for the cached cover first, then the box cover and flat cover, but before displaying the usual blank question mark ones wiiflow now looks for these custom missing covers.
Put your custom missing covers in your normal wiiflow boxcovers folder with all the other wii game covers. Rename them to the magicnumber.jpg and for non plugins - wii.jpg, channels.jpg, gamecube.jpg, and homebrew.jpg. You have to use jpg's when using this default method.
For theme related cover images still put them in your normal wiiflow boxcovers folder and rename them if necessary. I recommend adding the theme name and underscore as a prefix to the image name. Then add the following to your theme.ini modifying it to your liking. Note when using theme related cover images they can be png's.

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
is found, it will just replace the filename extension with .jpg
and try it again, the jpg file width and height need to be
divisable with 4, otherwise wiiflow will just ignore the cover
-added BASIC jpg support (currently only for internal theme files
and only with the power of 4 dimension images)
-using dvdskin files in jpg format (you wont notice the diff)
-created new folder in resources for the original theme pngs
(@devs: if you update pictures and use jpg, place the original png
inside that folder that we have the original one just in case)
sd card by reading the sd card directory (bit slower though)
-made list cache a bit smaller again by using more general
settings, dont forget to reload list cache
code and process, should be faster now, also the list cache should
take less space now
-using "types" instead of magic word now for internal detection,
faster and easier to handle
-prepared wiiflows code for custom coverflow which can have all
types together (nothing added yet)
