*Added support for EXT2/EXT3/EXT4 file systems:
You can boot games from this file systems too now. Works the same way as FAT32/NTFS.
Just put your games into drive:/wbfs/ with the known supported folder names.
*Added better wait loop for HDD spin up
*Changed almost all default config paths which are set when no config exists to be set to where the actual config file is saved (either /apps/usbloader_gx/ or /config/)
*Changed to startup and load a cios right away before loading settings. You need to have at least one non stub cios 249, 222 or 250 to start the loader now
*Fixed 30 secs timer on HDD spin wait
*Updated libfat to new libogc version
*Rewrote the whole Settings.cpp into 11 classes. Each settings menu has it's own class now
*Reworked the whole sound system. Supported formats AIF/MP3/OGG/BNS/WAV now with no file size limit (streaming).
*Changed button click/over sounds to wav from raw pcm
*Lot's of bug fixes
*Changed the image resource manager to only be used for images from memory (embedded images) and not those from a device. It used the same cover/disc image for multiple game.
* in the global settings you can select any 0x10001 title that is actually installed in the nand. in the game settings, you can decide whether or not to use the global setting for that 1 game.
*Changed cache size for mounts higher again which speeds up everything especially from SD
*Fixed bug when loading OCARINA+Alternative DOL. (Wasn't booting at all)
*Cache size reduced which results in a bit slower writing but is more stable
*Fix for the gameinstaller ProgressWindow
*Added NTFS unmount on exit
WARNING:
The USBLoaderGX installer seems to be broken in some places. There are sometimes random freezes or crashes even on fat32. Those arent bad on a fat32 filesystem but can damage the whole partition on ntfs. Using the installer on ntfs is still very risky. You have been warned!
* Updated to Hermes usb storage code
* Fixed some bugs in ntfs while writing timestamps, resulting in different hashes (dimok)
* Fixed codedump when switching partitions (issue 1454)
* Fixed graphical glitch on 4:3 screens, where the prefetch cover was visible in the coverwall
* Fixed a bug with installing games, due to the switch to C++ (dimok)
*rearrange some sd and usb init to keep from re-init the thing 20 times
*execute some of the main dol patches that are the same size in the same
loop so we dont keep looping the same data a bunch if we dont need to
(hopefully this doesnt break anything)
*sprinkle some more gpringf() around
* Fixed issue 1058
* Menus splitted to several smaller files, to reduce compile time
This version has FAT support. You can change the used partition in the game load options. Default WBFS will be used, if found. Otherwise the first FAT partition with games will be used. FAT will only work when using Hermes cios (222/223)!!!
* Added initial (untested!) support for the zip file format, which is supported by the HBC
* Began working on compressed wad files. Uncompressing fails for now, so uploading WAD files should be done with the previous version of Wiiload.
* Fixed issue 902 (hence the large commit).
formatted the code to make it easier to read. no functional changes at all.
i didn't put anything from the libwiigui folder or banner folder in the beautifier.
my automated .bat seems to have done a good job. the only places i see it fucked up was on (GXColor){blablabla}. it treated the brackets in the color like all the other brackets and put the color on a new line and indented it. i think i fixed most of them. not sure if it messed up anywhere else. also not sure about how it handled different linebreaks. it looks fine on windows. if it looks messed up on linux, it can be reverted.
the code still compiles and runs fine.
NOTE: This option is ONLY for those who have problems with their HDDs being detected. With this disabled you shouldn't get weird lists where all Games are the same or no Games at all.
Boot-Strategy:
- is "argv[0]" set, then the boot-device extracted from the argv.
- if no meaningful boot device found, then looking for
"boot.dol"/"boot.elf" in "apps/usbloader_gx/"
first on "SD:/" and then on "USB:/".
When found, than use this Device. Otherwise use the default "SD:"
- Set all default-Paths on this Device
- Set the Path for config-Folder, GXGlobal.cfg, GXGameSettings.cfg
and GXGameFavorites.cfg on this Device (e.g. USB:/config and so on)
* clean up the wild mounts and unmounts (this and the new libfat fix the download-bug)
* reorganize shutdowns and reboots use now the functions Sys_Reboot(), Sys_Shutdown(), Sys_ShutdownToIdel(), Sys_ShutdownToStandby() and Sys_BackToLoader()
this functions stops the GUI-Thread, Shutdowns the Audio, Video, WPad and unmounts the SD and USB
*Changed CACHE and SECTOR size for SD Cards what increases the loading speeds
if anyone's cards get compatibility problems now with saving or other stuff report as issue and it will be reverted)
**Big Thanks to CorneliousJD for Hosting the DOLs)**
*Reverted ardi's stuff which made codedumps on the Download (sorry ardi commit it again when its fixed)
