*fixed crashes on category add/delete/rename
*changed icon of category rename and mapped triggers +/-/1 to the buttons
*fixed green bar flash on game start
*fixed freeze in STATE_DISABLED when leaving->entering->saving game settings
*separated a few settings from the GUI setting and created a "Feature" settings menu
*Updated language files
*Added Wiinnertag support.
NOTE:
When you enable the Wiinnertag in the settings a prompt will come up if the Wiinnertag.xml does not exists in the setup path for it. This prompt will ask you if you want an example file created by the loader which you can adjust to your account (I suggest you create one on first use). Multiple/Other tag sites can be setup in the xml file and loader will execute them all one after another. Also Wiinnertag requires a network connection established to be working. When you enable this feature and auto network init is disabled you will be prompted to enable it.
*Created an own class for the homebrew prompt
*Created scrollbar class which is now used on every browser
*Created a checkbox browser list class

*Fixed SD Reload button to really reload the SD after it was ejected (Issue 1923)
*Added booting with arguements from meta.xml for homebrews (Issue 1926)
*Added some arguments acception from meta.xml to our app. "-ios=xxx" and "-usbport=x" or "--ios=xxx" and "--usbport=x" can be used. -usbport is for Hermes cIOS to decide which usb port to use on startup. The ios is the boot IOS on startup, it always overrides the compiled boot IOS into the application.
*Change in nand title search (fixed bug which can find wrong nand title and set it as return to)
*Fixed bug when a wiimote leaves the game list choice and returns to it without going over another game that game was not clickable (Issue 1918)
*Changed search bar to clear text on [X] button click. search bar is now closed by pressing B
*Reverted USB port auto detection through ehcmodule which was added in R1085, it breaks BlackOps on Hermes cIOS (thx s.v.groeneveld for testing)
*Added "Import categories from WiiTDB" function to the global settings as last entry. It will import the categories available in wiitdb.xml as <genre> for your games and assign your games automatically to the categories they are assigned to in wiitdb.xml.
*Fix homebrew browser indicator counter (thx dj_skual)
*Fix We Dare anti piracy protection (thx oggzee)
*Fix Wip patching
*IOS reload block working with d2x v6 beta1+ with all filesystems
*Changed CheckBox Cross to squareroot sign
*Added auto detection of the usb port on start with Hermes cIOS (allowing startup without waiting 20s for USB port 1) (was build in in rodries ehcmodule, thx!)
*With new d2x v6 beta1+ sector sizes other than 512 bytes per sector should be supported on ext/ntfs (maybe fat too) (NOT TESTED, need feedback)
*corrected the patch for returnTo using d2x (should be working now)
*added block ios reload of d2x. you can choose the methods in the game settings (same option as for hermes ios but it can be 1 or 2 on waninkoko ios, last option on screen) (not tested yet)
*major restructuring of patching code for game patches inside the source
*Fixed reset of the loader when loading game with IOS reload and disabled WiiTDB titles (Issue 1874)
*Added new 'Inherit' or 'Use global' setting for game settings. If that option is set than the global setting is used for that option. (Issue 1842)
*Fixed timeout timer on startup to count correctly. (Issue 1907)
*Added two new video modes to force progressive video mode, 'FORCE PAL480p' and 'FORCE NTSC480p' (basically the same but oh well) (Issue 1902)
*Added the new 'Return to' procedure for the d2x v4 IOS for Test purpose (didn't test it, need feedback on this one). The old method is used if this procedure fails. Please test it on problematic games (e.g. PoP). (Issue 1892)
Changelog for R1076:
*Fixed case sensitivity issue on game id compare
*Convert all game ids to upper case when reading from files/folders
*Reverted ntfs ignore case sensitivity setting
*Fixed wiimote2.png not being shown on game info
*Fixed titles being reloaded to game titles when setting titles from wiitdb to off
*Recut the credits music for better loop timing (thanks to Black.Pearl for doing that)
*update of ehcmodules for Hermes IOS supporting now more drives (thanks rodries again)
*added ignore case sensitivity on NTFS (hopefully it works as good as it sounds)
*fixed homebrew receiving in homebrew launcher via network
*changed video switching code to the one from Wiiflow
*allow ',' as floating point '.'
*Fix of reloading titles after wiitdb update
*reset all other button clicks on carousel when two or more buttons are clicked at once
*a few code optimizations
*fixed compile bug on OSX (Issue 1844 and Issue 1132)
*language files updated
*Added a font scale factor to the settings. This font scale resizes the overall font sizes. Only full integer font sizes are supported. The font scale factor is multiplied to the font size of a text and the result is rounded and used as the font size. It's a good quick fix for too big fonts.
*Fixed GAMEID_GAMETITLE folder game layout
*Fixed cutoff of box cover when it is too near and increased zoom range of the box cover. Reworked the move/zoom of the cover.
*Change wiimote icon when grabbing and dragging the box cover to grab icon
*Fixed bug in homebrew browser (crash)
*Changed a few default GX view configurations
*Use proper size of wiimote pointer image instead of hard coded values
*Reworked scroll/B hold movement stuff from the game list layout
*Removed buildtype.sh and added the define directly in makefile. No need to make an extra header for that.
*Changed makefile a to allow different IOS build modes. The build IOS is used at the start of the loader to load the settings under. If the build IOS is the same as the settings boot IOS the startup is a lot faster since no IOS reload is required.
To build yourself a special IOS build version type:"make IOS=XXX" where XXX is the number of the IOS (CSettings.cp has to be recompiled for that at least). If nothing is defined IOS222 is taken. There will now be always two versions supplied (IOS222 and IOS249 version). If another build is required build it yourself. You can see the revisions until now as the "IOS249 build version" since they behaved like that.
*Use of DirList class for homebrew listing instead of using it's own custom version of it
*Reverted back to libntfs version 2010-10-2 because the new version of NTFS-3G is not writing files correct on some drives causing the files it writes to be corrupted.
*Changed title/channel browser to use WiiTDB for displaying title names if no name is found in WiiTDB the old method is used
*Updated some language files
*Added left/right on game info screen to go to the next/previous game
*Fixed loading of titles cache settings
*Changed to show always the first game as first visible cover on carousel
*Added a "Details" button on the GameWindowPrompt which calls the game info window
*Added a cache titles setting. You can disable caching titles with that. Also when re-enabling this option the cache file is newly generated. This is there so it is possible to reset a false cached title without having to delete the "TitlesCache.bin"
*Added button 2 on zoom mode of 3D Boxes to rotate the box fast by 180°
*Increased speed for box rotating with WiiMote D-Pad
*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
*Disabled use of custom paths on other than SD if automatic port switching is enabled. This could damage a partition and we don't want to take that risk. So if you want to enable automatic usb port switching than you have to set all paths on sd:/ first now. Also when in this mode, only sd:/ will be available for setting custom paths.
*Changed setting of usb port switching to a more failsafer way.
NOTE: To all that did already enable the automatic usb port switching and have custom paths on some usb partition. Change this please or else your usbs filesystems are in danger. You have been warned!
*Added support for using both USB ports at once (ONLY ON HERMES CIOS)
Big thanks to rodries for writing the necessary ehcmodules!
NOTE: You can change port of USB device in the Loader Settings. The loader currently does not support loading configs off port 1 (only from port 0)
If you select to use both usb ports the loader will switch between ports automatically, on demand. It is not possible to use both ports at once currently. Right now the wiilight blinks each time it switches the port. I will talk to rodries and see if we can disable it. Using the "both ports" option only makes sense in combination with "Multiple Partitions" option. In that case all games on all partitions from BOTH HDDs will be loaded. I think I don't have to say that switching between ports and loading all games is slower than normal mode with one port only in use. You might wanna just set one port and switch yourself when you need to. Well the option for both ports (automatic switching) is there for the lazy ones who don't like to hit the settings button ;).
*Fixed apply on theme downloader after redownloading a theme
*Removed old theme changing menu (no one ever found it anyway)
NOTE: If a theme now includes a "theme_preview.png" in the image folder, it will be shown in the Theme Menu. If it does not have one than when downloading a theme, the loader will copy the preview from the theme downloader to the theme image folder.
NOTE to Themers: Just fyi, if you badly need to use another format than png for the images whyever, than just do so. Just rename the file from the actual format extension to .png extension. The loader will detect that it is not really a png and use the correct format. Supported image formats by USB Loader GX are png/gif/bmp/jpg/tpl.
*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.
*Reworked the cover downloader completely. Now has an overall missing files count and progress. Also missing files not found on the server can be dumped to a csv file
*Added possibility to grad 3D Boxes and move them around in the zoomable mode
*Changed default setting for video mode back to disc default
*Added additional sort mode - "Sort by number of players"
*Added support for multiple game partitions.
Note: You can activate multiple game partitions support in the Loader Settings. When it is active, all games from all partitions will be listed in the game list. Partitions can be mixed up as you wish wbfs/fat/ntfs/ext. When the multiple partitions feature is activated than the partition in "Game/Install Partition" setting is taken for new game installation. Also the free space amount will be shown from that game installation partition. This will be clickable in the future listing all partitions with their sizes.
*Fixed issue with crashing carousel when switching from empty game list to none empty list.
*Added download for Full HQ & LQ Covers. When both are checked HQ Covers are prioritized.
*Added support for Full HQ & LQ Covers:
Full covers are currently used only in the GameInfo Screen (Press 2). The Box can be rotated in there with the Nunchuck. When the box is clicked it will jump to the midlle of the screen. Here it can be rotated with Nunchuck & Wiimote D-Pad. Also it can be zoomed in/out with the PLUS or MINUS buttons. Zoomed in covers are currently cut off when going too far into the screen because the axis had to be layed to the middle to keep the symmetry. Don't report issues about that. It's known. Another use of full covers might follow with a new layout if we think of something nice ;).
*Added support for different box colors. Box colors are taken from WiiTDB so if you get a wrong color complain at WiiTDB :P.
*Added initial source for support for virtual sector size other than 512 bytes per sector on wbfs partitions. This still doesn't work (not tested) and will still cause many code dumps because of some unfinished things. So don't use it yet.
*New ehcmodule for Hermes IOS versions. This gives a big boost in compatibility to usb drives using Hermes cIOSes. Now many drives should work with it. Hermes cIOSes have now probably the best compatibility to usb devices. (big thanks to rodries here) (more to come ;))
*Fixed weird last random character at game info text
*Reload background/cursor/... on theme apply after download
*Added connection check function for URLs (like a PING)
*Added timeout on trying to connect to the theme download hoster
*Fixed redundant characters on search bar when both upper and lower case exist in a search
*Created a checkbox class with them
*Changed the prompt window to a class
*Changed cover download to a checkbox selection of what you want to download. Changed discart download option to only switch between what is prioritized (original/customs)
*Fixed a little alignment issue of the progressbar
*Reverted the change for check disc in drive. Some drives couldn't handle it in IOS58 mode :\.
*Changed playcount from an 8 bit to a 32 bit counter (got 8bit by mistake) which limited it to 255
*a few little optimisations
*Added missing switch for parental control option (caused the next option to be switched)
*Changed GetGameCFG to return default cfg if none is set
*Fixed little bug preventing the automatic alt dol feature to work
*Reworked almost everything about alternate DOL loading (I am wondering how loading from SD/USB even worked)
*Added new Option "Default" for alternate DOL which is now the default settings. This setting will select the alternate DOL automatically for games like Red Steel 1 because this alt. DOL is always needed to play the game. On games where the alt dol option is not needed the option "Default" = "OFF". This is just an attempt to make this option more automatic. Games like Metroid Prime (the only game right now) will have a prompt on game start where you choose between 1, 2 or 3 on this option because this game always requires either of these.
*Small source cleanups/fixes
*Resolve for Issue 1766 - You can now delete everything belonging to a game on deleting the game (covers/cheats/text codes...)
*Added dotted limit to the window prompt title text
*Changed to update disc drive status only 1 time per second in the main menu (instead of every ~100ns)
*Removed global "locked games" for per game lock option which is not really useful anyway since you have to save in the game the lock status
*Removed a few unused setting variables
*Updated some language files
*WiiMote desync problem fixed
*Removed "free space warning prompt" on fat32 partitions now
*Changed default free space option to ON
*Remove id button on other layouts than list view
*Moved carousel arrow position to theme file
*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.
WARNING: If you select to use IOS58 and you don't have IOS58 installed, the loader will be really really slow.
*Fixed reseting of Theme/Fonts when pressing the SD Card button. It is now reloading it instead.
