*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.
- Added support for ciosx (yes, including FAT/NTFS) (As always, say thanks to oggzee for this)
- Fixed bug with game specific settings (which *could* end up using other settings than you expected)
- Removed fat_ffs for now (save game emulation might conflict with FAT/NTFS support, we have to test this)
- Maybe more, but I forgot them, I think
* 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
*Startup is now using libogc usbstorage for loading configs
*Improved storing gametitles from wiitdb with less memory usage
*Added freeing of the memory allocated for wiitdb titles (oh boy)
*Changed wiitdb.zip search
You will see the list of available channels on your system if you start without a HDD or if your HDD is slow and is being recognized late. The list of games is than reloading as soon as it is recognized.
*Hot swapping of the SD card was implemented into background thread (by giantpune)
*Made lots of cleanups and some fixes
*Format menu was moved to settings page 3 (only on godmode accessable)
*Added ScreenShot and Reset/Shutdown call to background thread. Removed the not needed ones. Now you can call for Screenshot/Reset/Shutdown anywhere in the loader (after gui is started).
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)
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
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
*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
* 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)
* 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 functions to mess with the "return to" stub. everything should be working right, but if i messed up, it may cause you not to be able to exit the program (it could just keep restarting itself). now when booting homebrew, they should exit back to this program if you have a channel installed as UNEO or ULNR. priority is given to UNEO if both are present.
*Lots of changes in the TextDrawing stuff and FreeTypeGX to speed up the drawing
*Mostly optimization work which is not completely done yet, but mainly it is.
*You might not want to update to this revision right away there still might be bugs which are needed to be fixed. This is a version for everyone to test and report bugs caused by the changes.
*Vanishing WiiMotePointer should be fixed for the Settings/GameSettings probably (though it might still occur i am not sure if i didn't forget anything, there is just too much to change :P.
All options pages now contain the correct number of lines, which together with another adjustment should fix scrollbar alignment (issue 971).
Added missing scrollbar on custom paths page.
dimok fixed the file browser bug that prevented going back to the parent folder if the current folder was empty (issue 836).
Fixed parental control keyboard bug introduced in r750 (issue 976).
The free space text is now in correct order when the GUI is set to Japanese.
* 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).
You may have to delete your main configuration file before updating if you had v3 installed. For some games, you will have to use 222 instead of 223 (RB instruments, GH 5) if you had 222 v3.
If you think you need an external ehcmodule.elf, you can put it in SD:/apps/usbloader_gx/ and it will be loaded.
Fixed crash when setting a custom path using the folder button (issue 864).
Fixed black screen when starting the loader from HBC a long time after powering the Wii and the HDD went to sleep (tested on a WD 2,5") (possible fix for issue 881).
*Fixed the receiving of the wads. Now receiving directly to a device (Big files work now too (with sendelf they do, do not know about wiiload))
*Fixed to show the incoming IP and not the IP of the Wii
*Made changes on bootup. Now there is a small BootUp Screen for the slow HDD people. Waiting for 30Secs for their HDD.
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.
*Added URL_List class that gets all Links of an http url.
*Made HomebrewList class dynamic allocated like the URL_List class too now. This saves lots of unused memory.
*Small cleanups
NOTE: Punes made an update too (i didnt know he was doing it). We decided to have both in because of:
Punes update updates only the files that are available on the SD/USB and only when you are doing a complete update.
My update is downloading ALL files from the SVN Link (getting the whole list). These is mainly for people that are getting started or those who want to update the whole LanguageList
added check for GXglobal.cfg on the USB at startup. now if anny of the following are met, it will cause USB to be used as your bootDevice:
argv[0] gets passed on startup and it is usb
any of these files are on your USB drive.
USB:/config/GXglobal.cfg || USB:/apps/usbloader_gx/boot.elf || USB:/apps/usbloadergx/boot.dol || USB:/apps/usbloadergx/boot.elf || USB:/apps/usbloader_gx/boot.dol
