*WiiTDB now falls back to english if the locale language is not found for Titles/Synopsis
*Some clean up and memory leak fixes in game info prompt and adjusted the info get to the new WiiTDB reading method.
*Added a few new useful functions from WiiXplorer (DownloadToFileWithProgress, ShowError,...)
*Disabled the console output after the GUI is started up. The info is only output to gecko in GUI mode now.
Time for some real update. Whole lot of new features added including:
* GC GAMES BOOTING FROM USB
* BANNER ANIMATION LIKE ON DISC CHANNEL
* BURNING WII GAMES FROM WBFS TO DVD-R
* SUPPORT FOR ALL USB2.0 HDDS
* NO GAME SIZE LIMITS
* EXT2 AND EXT3 FILESYSTEM SUPPORT
AND A LOT MORE.
Only missing features now: The Wii making you coffee and toasting your bread in the disc slot.
*Changed boot process to wait for USB in GUI mode.
*Changed headless ID stuff (actually was in last rev)
*Added a GameTitles class for WiiTDB titles and fixed parental control (probably crashed before)
*Removed cfg.c completely now. Nothing left in it.
*Moved per game lock feature from game statistics to the individual game settings. It is not a game statistic ;).
* removed duplicate 002 parameter in constructors
* pass setting parameter directly to the patching functions instead of making another variable just for this
* probably broke something
* change returnTo patch a bit. now it can be run on dol sections instead of the whole thing at once.
* apply the patch for alt dols
* only apply patches to main.dol if we aren't booting an alt dol
*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.
*Lot's of changes in image processing
*Added use of libgd and ImageData class from WiiXplorer. No more crashes with corrupted images and no more restriction to images sizes that are devidable by 4 :).
*Added a recource file manager for better access of all files/images for internal files and theme files. Some themes will have to adjust some filenames because we want to use the same filenames for themes and internal source files.
*Moved all related global settings to a settings class. one for themes and individual games will follow. Probably broke some settings or theme loading, we can deal with that later and fix when someone discovers bugs.
* only get the list of shit installed on the wii 1 time and use that list globally for stuff like checking if something is installed, getting channel names, getting title versions
* remove unused files
* probably fuckup svn merge
*Replaced all text related stuff with the ones from WiiXplorer (FreeTypeGX/GuiText/...). Some alignments might need be adjusted or maxWidth in pixel of some text parts. Also the text scrolling needs to be adjusted.
*updated libntfs (write fix)
*updated libfat
*lots of changes in the startup code, removed almost everything. This might cause problems for some drives at loading the gamelist and needs to be adjusted later but better this time. more cleanup is needed in main.cpp and will come.
*using libogc sd/usb for config loading and reload to cIOS afterwards
*added missing boothomebrew stuff pune forgot
NOTE: From now on we will be doing a lot of revs which we won't be compiling and releasing. This revs are officially not available for public so don't making issues regarding those revs. Those will be closed right away. We need first to cleanup a lot of crap and update loader to new standards before releasing stuff again.
*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)
WIP Patches will be only accepted in the following format (let's not invent thousands of different formats):
In 3x 4 bytes columns separated by a space (no ":" allowed)
offset | original address | overwrite address
Example for PoP:
007AAC6A 7A6B6F6A 6F6A7A6B
007AAC75 7C7A6939 69397C7A
...
The original address is compared before patching and is not patched if it doesn't match. You can see the confirmation or fail of a patch on the Gecko Output.
*A few fix ups in different places
look for the first of ULNR or UNEO
if neither are found, look for the first of JODI or HAXX
if none of the 4 are found, return without patching anything
*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)
* Fixed bug in http.c (where realloc *might* choose another address, thanks Dr. Clipper)
* Added support to /wbfs/Game Title [GAMEID].wbfs files (thanks oggzee)
* Fixed bug in cfg_cleanup when switching partitions
* Added BGM class again (for playing background music, requested by dimok)
* Added settings for background music again
* Fixed bug in MEM2 class (returning an invalid handle when no memory could be allocated, thanks to dimok)
* Updated DIP module to OpenDIP (report bugs with this one if you've found them, but report them here: http://github.com/spacemanspiff/odip-plugin)
* Added initial code for cios 222 rev5 (THIS DOES NOT WORK YET! DON'T FILE BUGS ON THIS ONE!)
* Added fatffs module by Hermes and Waninkoko (THIS DOES NOT WORK YET! DON'T FILE BUGS ON THIS ONE!)
* Fixed bug in Settings, which resulted in a crash when the partition was changed.
* Added caching for gamelist entries, so switching between different screens/sort options/display modes should be faster
* Changed defines in ehc_module, in order to prevent clashes with new defines in rev5
*Fixed filebrowser to cancel without applying the path
*Added A BGM Class
*Removed the BGM menu now.
You can now choose a file with the filebrowser which you want to play. This file will be played and all .mp3 .ogg and .wav in the same directory enlisted as a Playlist.
If you choose Loop Directory mode than the files are played one after another. You can also choose a play random music from directory mode.
USB must deinit the device before re initting it or else it returns 0
games and what not.
*add filter to skip __CFG_ in teh gamelist (i was told this is the ID6
for hermes' settings)
*Changed GuiDrawThread priority to maximum. This seems to take care of the vanishing WiiMotePointer problem (let's see if it works. If anyone notices a slowdown of any process caused by this revision, please report.)
down the ocarina issues
*take the IOS reload out of the slow usb loop
*use patchhook.S from new geckoOS. this doesnt mean all the new geckoOS
stuff will work, its just the S file
*fix the gamelist from starting with 1 game on the list
*added fucntion for making screenshots and put it in a few loops.
triggers are GC(Z), CC(left-Z), nunchuk(Z). no comfirmation is given
except over usb gecko. but files are saved in <boot device>/config/
USBLoader_GX_screenshot<date><time>.png
*took out some annoying prompts from the bannersound functions because
they were really annoying
* Implemented WIP patches
* Updated language files
* Possible fix for Peppa Pig (untested, issue 1212)
* Updated Wii parental controls to work nicelly with USB GX Parental Controls
gamelist.
*rearrange the Gui_Numpad so it doesnt look like a 4yr old made it :)
*remove redundant setPostion and setAlignment in Gui_Numpad
*remove old comments
* Added Wii Parental Control support
* Added gui numpad
* Changed GuiText to support password character
* Added lock/unlock icon in the titlebar (to unlock Parental Control)
* Added new wbfs_fat from Oggzee (further speed improvement)
* Added MEM2 support by Hibern
* Better partition support (by oggzee)
* Support for subdirectories in FAT32 (by oggzee)
* Added support for cios 223 and 250
* Added BCA support (go to Settings->Custom Paths) to change the path of the BCA files (by Hermes)
* Fixed issue with hairless mode
* Fixed issue with IOS_ReloadIOSsafe (by giantpune)
* Added setting to save games in a subdirectory
* Fixed slow startup when loading from FAT (WiiTDB required!)
* Changed handling of new titles a bit (speed improvement)
Known issue:
* FAT rename and re-id broken again due to subdirectory support (yes, I'm lazy)
changed gprintf() to use crediar's method because it is smaller and works just the same.
allow r-win's debug printf() stuff to be sent to the gecko to reduce redundant stuff there
issue 1073. headless mode - allow game to be booted via argv[1].
took out all the params from the exitprompt since they aren't used.
took out all the #ifdef stuff for building for a wii. obviously this wont run on a gamecube so it isn't needed.
added a way to check what version of a IOS is installed before trying to boot into it. added IOS_ReloadIOSsafe(). this should stop idiots with the 4.2 stubs from bitching about why stuff doesn't work.
use that check so you only see the "222v4 is needed" prompt in the settings if you don't already have that installed.
fix issue 1039. (must still be compiled without NO_DEBUG defined because technically WiiRD is a debugger)
* Added a configuration setting to turn this feature off (there you go, pune)
* Changed svnrev.sh, to also update the release date of the meta.xml file, and to set the revision to current + 1
- Type "make" to make the normal dol
- Type "make channel" to make the channel dol
This will only force networkops.cpp and PromptWindows.cpp to recompile, instead of changing the PromptWindows.h file and force a recompile on almost everything.
* 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).
raise the coder to char[100] because we have a shitload of names on there
add param int t=0 to the get entries function to force getting all games and ignore settings and parental control
fix bug that code dumped if you didn't have the database.txt for the channel names
