Changelog since last revision:
- add banner/icon animation support for wii games / channels / gamecube
- add custom banner for gamecube which loads the gamecube internal opening.bnr information (it is much better than the generic one of the system menu) (big thanks to diddy from the wiithemeteam for creating the brlyt/brlan for the banner)
- add gamecube banner of system menu (not used right now since it sucks)
- add banner grid of the system menu (resources loaded from nand) (with button highliter)
- add big banner frame window of the system menu (resources loaded from nand). the banner window has buttons "Settings" and "Start" by default. if parental control is enabled the "Settings" button is replaced by "Back"
- add play count text to the banner frame window (can be disabled as up until now in the gui settings)
- add zoom in/out/scroll animations to banner grid and change into big frame window
- add loading gc banners from ISO and DVD
- add loading wii banners from DVD discs even if the game is not installed
- add favorite level setting to the game settings since it is no longer on the banner frame window
- add new settings section for banner settings
- add option to choose between disc window and banner window
- added back ehci module to support 2 usb drives and re-enabled the option
- add option for 2 usb drives for d2x cIOS as well (will be supported in the future, not yet)
- exchanged "GC Games" and "EmuNand Channels" on the game selection screen (more space for translators)
- add and fixed gui numpad for entering numbers of any kind
- add setting for tooltip delay time
- fix reload of cover image on game list when only 1 item is left after a change (e.g. sort)
- add use of old build in font for credits window because it doesnt look good with the system menu one
- fixed effect bug when scrolling buttons in the settings and the wiimote is over button 1
- fixed bug where entering -1 (Use global) for cIOS was not possible in game settings
- many source cleanups
- add bnr chace setting
- add DML configuration from the loader
- removed creation of temporary "boot.bin" file
- DML custom game paths.
Additionally i added support for following forms of paths:
1. configpath/gamepath/game.iso
2. configpath/gamepath/game.gcm
3. configpath/gamepath/GAMEID6.iso
4. configpath/gamepath/GAMEID6.gcm
Where gamepath can be anything you want inside the configure path in the custom path settings.
I don't know if GCM files are allowed by DML but i just added support for it just in case.
Changing path to USB is not blocked currently but games won't run from USB just keep that in mind.
The "copy to SD before start" feature is not added yet. Listing the games should work though
- DML cheats now work the same way as for wii, gct goes to "Cheatcode Path" as GAMEID.gct (same as on wii)
- several DML internal configs are added as per game/global settings
- added load of last cheat configuration from GCT files
- added init of network into background thread so it is cancelable and has a timeout
- added gc games copy from USB to SD on demand with choice menu to delete SD games to make space, SD games path can be chosen seperately from main gc path.
all dupicate sd games are prefered then the main path to allow direct boot of games that are already on sd. main path can be on USB or anywhere else.
- added gc disc dump functionality with multidisc, compress and align support (thanks to FIX94 and Overjoy for their disc dump source on which this is based)
- added selection menu for gc multidisc which game to install
- fixed loading game ID when it can't be read from path for GC games and with that loading the titles from GameTDB for them
- lots of string handling improvements (thanks to gerbilsoft for his patch)
- added gamecube banner cache loading (only loading) if available with GAMEID6.bnr or ID3.bnr in the banner cache path. wii games/channels also accept now ID3.bnr.
- added several progress bar cancel buttons on some missing progress windows
- improved calculation of progress speed. now it is always the last 15 secs average instead of overall progress speed.
- added pulsing new icon on banner grid layout for new games
- added resize of widescreen screenshots to 768 width
- added mii extract on save game extract if the file does not yet exists
- added mii extractor and SYSCONF extractor that always extracts and overwrites old files
- changed wifi gecko to UDP socket
- support for DML v1.2+
NOTE:
Banner animation support requires AHBPROT flag to be enabled. If you use old HBC you should use our forwarder or update the HBC otherwise you wont have that support.
I am hoping that now the themers and the translators can catch up with their stuff for the next upcomming official release.
*moved low mem and video setup for channels after loading the dol (fixes/corrects video mode, little video flash on startup of channel and might fix some other stuff. hopefully doesn't brake some channels)
*removed duplicate memory flush/patches
*code optimizations
*removed source for wad installation to real nand completely
*apply of title rename to cached titles
*add listing of 00010004 titles on real nand
*add rename of internal used id of all HBC versions to JODI for GameTDB to find it
*converted all ogg sounds from 44.1 khz to 48 khz
*some source cleanup/movement
*added support to control screen pointer with gc pad or classic controller. you are always able to control as long as the corresponding wii control does not point to the screen (e.g. wiimote 1 not pointing to screen -> gcpad/classic controller 1 can control pointer 1). a speed factor is added to the gui option. need feedback about a proper default value, currently 15% (only tested gc pad on dolphin-emu)
*fix reinit of cheatcount on download of new file
*moved installation window to be on top of main window
*added game installation cancel
*added nand extract cancel
*added back extract of save feature for a real nand channels
*added auto position of progress window messages in vertical direction depending of how many are used at the same time
*added init of the game partition uppon starting a game install without previously having the "wii game mode"
*added cheat update button to redownload the cheat text file
*the partition size text is now only shown if the partition was initialized
*fix in return to patch (bug added with r1135). the old method of patching was always used even on d2x.
*a few code cleanups
*Optimized TMD loading. Removed unnecessary accesses to it.
*Fixed ocarina path loading for channels
*Optimized device shutdown before game/channel start
*A few code optimizations
IF YOU USE RETURN TO OPTION THEN THE UNEO TITLE MUST BE ON EMU NAND AS WELL FOR PARTIAL AND FULL EMULATION.
*Added back our old font as fallback font in case the wii system font can't be loaded. Also the use of the Wii System Font can be disabled in the settings (don't forget to set font scale back to 1.0 for old font)
*added saving of game browser position (on all modes)
*several cleanups and small fixes
*added a "Block Category Menu" setting
*fixed bug with parental block and game settings (thanks NJ7 for finding it)
*fixed "All" not being translated in category menu
*modified libcustomfat and ntfs fragment fetch function to support >512 bytes per sector
*Added new ehcmodule (thanks rodries)
*Added real support of using both ports simultaniously without shutting down the other (thanks rodries for the ehcmodule works on this). There is no longer the limitation that the settings have to be on SD card for this. (ONLY HERMES CIOS)
*Moved a few settings to Feature Settings and added a new Hard Drive Settings
*Changed Wiinnertag path to only point to the path and not to the file. You must correct the path manually in custom path settings or reset you configs for this change or Winnertag won't work!!
*Removed a few compile warnings for devkitPPC R23
*Fixed freeze in theme menu when its empty
*Optimized the game list loading on fat/ntfs/ext. This should speed up the loading process.
*Added cache of game titles. This will speed up the startup after the cache file is written (in other words on second start of this rev). A TitlesCache.bin will be created in the same path as the wiitdb.xml for this. This should especial speed up the startup of fat/ntfs/ext partitions by a lot if no sub folders with the game titles are used, like GAMEID.wbfs only. That must have been painfully slow before on a lot of games. Should be at about the same speed as with sub folders now. I would still recommend to use sub folders.
*Removed wiilight (disc slot) blinking when switching USB port on Hermes cIOSes (thanks rodries)
*Added the ehcmodule sources from rodries to the branches
*Updated language files
*Changed USB Loader GX WBFS formatter to choose 2048 as virtual sector size if a drive with a size > 500GB is formatted.
NOTE: Don't use this feature with IOS58 mode. It might damage the partition. I did not build in a safety check for IOS58 mode because it will be removed soon anyway.
*Made the ProgressWindow for game installation more accurate
*Added displaying newly installed games (marked as new) on favorite list, so you don't have to change to full list when installing new games. (Thanks Cyan for the patch)
*Lot's a small fixes
*Added WDM Menu on game start. You can set it in the alternative DOL option (one new option there). The menu lists all DOLs on the disc and if a wdm file is provided in the WDM path (configurable in the settings) than the dol parameter and dol replacement name will be taken from the wdm. The DOLs that are not listed in the WDM but exist on the DISC will be listed at the end of the list.
*Added avoid of multiple app cleanup when game fails to boot
*Changed libfat to use FS info sector on FAT32 partitions. This speeds up the free space information getting to instant. For that the FS info sector has to have correct values. The values of all partitions where homebrews were writing to are currently incorrect because the official libfat does not support FS info sector (i submited a patch) (Windows does write it correct though). That is why there needs to be a synchronization of the FS info sector for partitions used with homebrews. For this purpose a new setting was added in the Loader Settings. You can synchronize all your FAT32 partitions on the USB with it once and you are done (if you don't write to that partition with current homebrews). After that you can enable free space display and it will be instant like on WBFS/NTFS/EXT partitions.
*Rewrote complete main menu function
*Moved ext2/3/4 disc cache to mem2 as on FAT/NTFS (added ext2 as custom lib due to that)
*Added missing header files from R1011 for ext support
*Fixed crash on Numpad when pressing a button
*Fixed boot of WiiMC
*Changed SVN line ending to LF (Unix style)
*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
