You can also check how to install or update manually here: http://code.google.com/p/usbloader-gui/wiki/Installation
We are sorry for the inconvenience.
New:
- Added a new Layout: Channel grid mode! Channel grid displays games as channels and plays banner animations like the real Wii System Menu.
Channel grid mode and banner animation requires AHBPROT flags to load resource files directly from your Wii.

Where gamepath can be anything you want inside the configure path in the custom path settings.

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

*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 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
*Changed the category prompts to the new list mode
*Improved B-Button scrolling
*Fixed horizontal text scrolling

*Fixed booting games by argument (headless id) (Issue 1930)
*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.
*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)
