-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.
- Changed stub.bin to launch the new channel (WFLA) instead of the hidden channel (WIIH) which really wasn't needed. I think whatever Fix94 was going to use it for never got implemented so it was basically just a forwarder channel.
- If you have trouble returning to wiiflow lite when exiting a wii or nand game then make sure in wiiflow_lite.ini under GENERAL that 'returnto' is not set to WDFA. it should be WFLA.
- wiiflow lite still shares the wiiflow data directory with wiiflow for now.
-Readded the code to paths to be able to change the path where Wii and GC games are kept. But they really should just be kept in dev:/wbfs and dev:/games.
-wiiflow_lite.ini changes under [GAMECUBE] are:
removed video_setting= - was used to tell wiiflow when using DML or Nintendont to set cfg args for video mode. not needed anymore.
dir_usb_games= - is now - gc_games_dir= with default of %s:/games similar to wii_games_dir
dm_widescreen= - is now - widescreen=
screenshot= is removed. was used for DML
wiiu_widescreen= is added. but only used if on a Wii U
-gameconfig2.ini changes as well.
-NMM and DML is still used in theme ini files. may change in a commit soon but that means all themes have to be modified, a big pain in the butt.
-language and help files will need to be updated to remove all DML and NMM crap.
-and default names of images for some icons and btns need to be changed but for now left them as they are.
-other minor changes. Most of it untested so I hope it all works, if not then repair commits will follow.
-set wiiflow version to beta 4.2.2
-added another memory manager just for wii games and banners
-changed THP file playback, for sound you now need to have a ogg file with the same name, that fixes all audio shutters and crashes
-optimized THP file playback and JPG extraction alot, it should now work fine with 640x480 30fps without any crash or freeze anymore
-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
-changed revision to Beta 4.2.1 (this rev is still 4.2 final but last time I forgot to rename the revision so)
-fixed text view sometimes not working properly
-fixed source menu didnt set the plugin partitions right
-added deletion of channels on emu nand
-added support for ftp clients request full path directory creations
-updated english.ini
-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
Note: if you don't want to use it then leave everything alone and don't put any wads in the mios folder.
Note2: if you install a mios outside of wiiflow and use this feature be sure to set current_auto_mios = 0 under [DML] in wiiflow.ini
-fixed the language download crash when trying to download the languages a second time
-added a back button to the language manager
-updated german.ini
- added background to wad installer menu
- made some small coding changes to source menu but still works the same
- updated english.ini

-fixed bug that force_cios_load broke the wiimote pointer in wiiflow
-Fixed favorites_on_startup. renamed it save_favorites_mode. defaults to off. set to yes and wiiflow will remember if favorites was on or off for each view/mode. Still can be set on page 4 of config menu.
-Fixed favorites and parental lock for plugins. Parental lock might come in handy for movies.
-And restored save for categories_v4.ini on exit of wiiflow
- now you can have as many categories as you want.
- copied the idea of selected, hidden, and required categories from USB Loader GX. Thanks Cyan. Checkmark = selected, X = Hidden, and + = Required.
- redid categories.ini layout and renamed it categories_v4.ini so you can copy and paste settings from the old one to the new one. Each view (USB,DML,EMU,NAND,HOMEBREW) has it's own numcategories, category names, and category settings. All games are now seperated based on the view. Don't forget to add 1 to numcategories for the show All mode.
- Replaced All checkbox with CLEAR button which clears all checkboxes so no category is selected and all games will be shown.
- Added features to the Game Selected Categories Menu. Now the title is the title of the current game. You can now press plus(+) and minus(-) on wiimote to go to the next or previous games without going back to previous screen making it easier to setup categories for your games.
- note: all changes will not be saved in categories_v4.ini unless you exit wiiflow or launch a game.
