* 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).
*may lead to false positives for some GC memory cards in slot 2, but the only side effect would be hooking the game when it wasn't wanted to be hooked*
fix i bug created by svn merging
Call to start BC for GC is still present 2x. I left one so if the first doesn't work, it can be removed and the second will be used.
Add button to mount DVD drive. Not completely tested, but somewhat.
*Tested and working*
retail Wii DVD
Wii backup
Wii backup w/ alt dol (redsteel)
Wii backup w/ alt dol & ocarina (redsteel)
Wii backup w/ alt dol & WiiRD
Retail & Backup forcing video modes
Saving individual settings for games on DVD (only Wii as BC is loaded before any settings would be used)
Display disc images for DVD games
Loading GC games retail & backup (w/ working MIOS patch installed)
I did change some stuff after testing GC so it might be broken.
Theme stuff for the button is not tested and I'm not quite up to speed with ardi's changes to the theme stuff so it might not work.
Changed images are not compressed or optimized.
N O T E:
--------
- The old coords for the "sort & search" buttons
are obsolete and will be removed in future
- the gamelist, gamegrid and the gamecarousel have your
own coords (named the old coords with a prefix "gamelist_",
"gamegrid_" and "gamecarousel_")
- the search-button is e.g. themable over the new setting
"gamelist_search_coords=x,y", "gamegrid_search_coords=x,y"
and "gamecarousel_search_coords=x,y".
- a workaround, for old themes, sets (by using the old coords)
all buttons as previously, apart from favorite button.
The new search button is placed at the position from the
favorite button and the favorite button is placed to the left
side of the search button. That is necessary for old themes
to insert the search button between favorite and abc button.
This workaround will be removed in future
- for new themes must use the new coords.
- Themes for old and new loader can use both coords
(the important thing is that the old coords stands
before the new coords in the GXtheme.cfg)
Made function to check if a game has save data on the Wii nand. This can be used to allow/not allow booting certain alt dols. So far it is only called before 1 game, and it seems to work fine without issue.
make updated always the lang-files
now:
make -> builds only the boot.dol
make all -> builds the boot.dol and updated the lang-files
make lang -> only updated the lang-files
*NOTE*
it is possible to change any game ID to more or less than 6 characters, but since most of the functions use header->id[0] through [5], more will be useless and less may result in code dumps.
it is not advised to change the ID for games that are not custom, as the cover and wiitdb data will not be available for made up ID
it is possible to have multiple games with the same ID on the wbfs partition, but when any of them are clicked, the wii will perform the selected action (play, delete, etc) on the first one it finds.
INFO:
Here is what the options mean:
Only Originals - only download original disc images
Only Customs - only download custom disc images
Originals/Customs - download first original and if not available download custom disc images
Customs/Originals - download first customs and if not available download original disc images
*Added a ToolTip
*Added GameName under the covers
*Fixed Crash with no Favorites in list.
NOTE: I'll add a better coming out effect for the covers, for now there is only a slow big ZoomOut which isnt too bad either.
*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.
Also messed with the run command within the makefile. press alt+r to compile the source code and then send the resulting dol to the wii.
*note*
you must have the environmental variable set up for wiiload. you don't need to have the .exe file, just the WIILOAD variable
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.
first try the 00000000.app with the system language, then with english.
if there is still no name for the title, look in banner.bin
also made a kick-ass clone of the wii settings screen to adjust the normal wii settings. it is after all the channels.
*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
now, when doing a full update/full channel update, whatever .lang files are in the language path should get updated as well.
changed thread priority (70->75) for GX thread since it wasn't originally created to be drawing as many different images at once as we are throwing at it. hopefully this will fix some of the black artifacts that are popping up on the screen during the gameinfo and homebrew info windows.
disable the screen while saving wad to sd because idiots were misusing it and breaking shit
change the exit prompt so you can exit to HBC even if you didn't came from there
·Add tooltips to NavBar
·Nodisc.png & noimage.png (cover 3d or flat) for theme need to be place in your theme folder now (more easy to install theme)
Warning: if you use a custom nodisc.png/noimage.png, now you need to let it in the theme folder (so download theme, and just load it, no need to move images anymore)
·Made littles modif on the new file browser for title of custom path match with those from the setting windows (less heavy for the .lang file)
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
put in a filter to hide the xxxA factory duplicate channels.
*NOTE* In testing, all channels booted fine with system menu 4.1u installed. None booted with 3.2u installed.
· add sdcard_over.png and browser_over.png (neorame, if you want done an over effect like for wii button)
· Made the sdcard & homebrew button themeable with over feature,
· Add translatable tooltip to the hombrew button
· Add some translation forgotten in sources.
-add polish local
-remove wiitdb.zip download option (for your personal wiitdb.zip use the link create option of the loader)
*Add new wifi/internet icon and wii channel icon for the mini hbc (have to add in the loader by a cover, you know im not a .....)
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
made the channel browser read database.txt. The text should be in the config path (because i couldn't think of a better place for it). And the format for the txt is the first 3 chars of the 4 char ID, then any 1 character, then the name (read up to 51 chars.
eg.
ULN USB Loader GX Full Channel
HAX Homebrew Channel
HAT Nintendo Channel
The database for ATD mod follows this format, so its a great place to start. If people are going to be passing around a database, it would be wise to keep custom channels off this, as my WADD that says WadManager is not the same as somebody else's WADQ which could be a self destruct or something.
Commented out the code that loads titles.txt. It was reported that this file is keeping WiiSportsResort from loading on some Wiis. And it isn't needed anymore since there is the xml file with all the names in it. I left the code in though in case somebody thinks that it is actually useful.
Added 1 more game to the list of known alt dols.
