- replacing strings of 0's and 1's with ASCII characters 33 on up. So if you have a game in category 1 and you have 20 categories, instead of 110000000000000000000 all you will see is ! (ASCII character 33) which is way shorter and will take wiiflow much less time to read. Also if a game isn't in any category there will be nothing after the = .
- also added categories for individual plugins. Wiiflow checks to see if only one plugin is selected and if so then uses the categories for that one plugin. So for example you can have categories for your movies when you only use the mplayerce plugin.
-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
- Fixed Nand Emulation from SD-card.
- 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.
- 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.
-fixed banner was not automatically hiding in gametdb, delete game question, copy game from usb to sd question, trailer and favourites settings
-cleaned up some stuff again
-fixed installing gamecube disc 2 with wiiflow installer
-fixed exit to neek2o for people who got their nand in a folder
-some general cleanup and speedup
enabled wiiflow will always reload to the cIOS even if a normal
IOS with AHBPROT is found (disabled by default)
-enabled skip_list_check by default
-cleaned up a bit
-if a IOS is found which got the AHBPROT patched out, wiiflow will
run on it (for example if you boot wiiflow via HBC, it will boot
with IOS58 instead of 249)
-on game boot or on entering emu nand, wiiflow automatically reloads
IOS if necessary
-added check to only reload IOS if its really a different one
-removed SD card gecko log buffer allocation, using some
buffer in dol directly (should allow longer logging, untested)
-set wiiflow optimize level back to -O2
it wiiflow will not check for new games on boot, that will speed up
bootup amazingly for people with alot of wii games (disabled by def)
-disabled extended list check by default
possible to always have full NAND access no matter which IOS is
loaded currently
-fixed the sometimes again flashing wait message on game boot
-added some proper ISFS init and deinit methods with debug prints
the problem of the lagging wait message (since the wait message
doesnt take much wii power wiiflows speed should be the same)
-set down wait message stack and also removed the reallocation of
the stack again and again on every display of it
-added security check that the wait message thread is finished
before removing the thread (should prevent freezes)
-removed a few more unneeded lines of code
-WIP commit for wii game/channel booting, now uses a internal
extra dol file to boot wii games and channels, that should be a
better way to fix game and channel booting
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
problems or blackscreens (test it please)
-changed play button in full screen banner back to the right side
(jiiwah, why you changed that? It's right in the system menu)
-now source menu looks for images in current theme folder first, then source_menu folder. All images must be named the same as what's in the source_menu.ini. If not found in either folder uses wiiflow's favorite star image.
-removed source menu exit button.
-moved a few debug prints, also added disc id check for wii games
playing from a wbfs partition (before it just checked on fat32,
ntfs and ext2 if the readed in disc is correctly opened from cIOS)
-made ogg lib using MEM2 only (as we did in the previous update
with the sound buffers)
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
-devolution will now return to wiiflow using the hidden channel
-added megazig to thanks list
-allocating memory for devolution instead of using a fixed position
(seems to work just fine now)
which has enough space left instead of fixed memory in most parts
-fixed alot of things about banner playing, now shouldnt randomly
codedump anymore or things like this, also some banner sounds
which did not play before should work fine now
-removed unused code and added better debug prints
-using some fixed voice for game banner and not always a new one
per banner
-fixed DIOS-MIOS cheats for sure now :P
-fixed possible memory allocation bug in wbfs alloc (thanks to
cfg-loader)
-removed MEM2_memalign since it did not work correctly
-fixed a few wrong memset sizes
-made wait animation faster
-removed a few unneeded lines in the wait message code
-fixed booting wii games from disc
-fixed possible bug in wii game launching in general
-gecko output again on wii game booting
-converted alot of spaces to tabs, fitting the general wiiflow
coding style
-general cleaning up things
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
- 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
-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)
-added debug SD information if found or not and if in __io_wiisd
mode (for dolphin-emu, neek, hermes ios)
-added automatically test if __io_wiisd mode works (no need to
overwrite things anymore to test that)
-added more intelligent IOS check (stub check, version check)
-removed unneeded cIOS information in neek mode
fucked up cIOS maps
-changed the AUTO IOS selection again, if the game doesnt need
IOS57 it will just use the currently loaded cIOS instead of a
IOS56 based one
enabled by default, with the option enabled it will use cfg version
2 for dm 2.1 or higher, if disabled it uses cfg version 1. It will
be ignored if dml_r52+ is set to no since that uses the old boot.bin
method then
the memory we use for them, not that we get problems
-added debug prints about how much mem left before and after
cleanup
-updated devicehandler, partition handler and usb code to the
latest usb loader gx one, should give more compatility and
port 1 support (not enabled yet)
if we boot homebrew and devolution
-fixed stupid bug which may made a problem with devolution (thanks
stfour for finding it)
-dont init mload on waninkokos cIOS which is older than r18
game via DIOS-MIOS or Devolution, if you set it to Default it
will boot ISOs via Devolution and FST extracted via DIOS-MIOS
-updated english.ini
-updated german.ini
display gamecube coverflow button still
-added possibility to set diosmios video patching way,
video_setting in wiiflow.ini [DML] section, if set to 0
it will disable all video settings of diosmios, if set to 1
it will use the auto setting (default) and if set to 2 it
will force the video mode
and place the loader.bin into your wiiflow data folder, wiiflow
will automatically find the binary and use devolution to boot
the gamecube game (only works with iso files, games extracted
with gcreex doesnt work)
