Mini tutorial: move files from one WBFS disk to another

Post by pfi »

Automatically translated from French.

Hello,

Here's a small Windows/DOS script to move all the games from one WBFS partition to another WBFS partition
To put it simply, I extract the game in iso format onto the Windows partition (NTFS), then I write the game onto the other partition. I think this tutorial will soon be outdated....

1) create an empty directory, on a drive with at least 4.5 GB free
2) place the software in this directory
wbfs.exe https://www.mediafire.com/?vvtmcmlyh32
sed.exe https://openetwork.com/sed.exe
tail.exe https://openetwork.com/tail.exe
3) create, with notepad, a text file named: transfert.bat, with the following code:
@REM Done by pfi
@REM sed & tail https://openetwork.com/berk.html
@REM wbfs wbfs windows port build 'delta'. Mod v1.0 by Sorg.

@echo SOURCE and TARGET:
set SOURCE=j
set TARGET=g

@echo off

REM Lists the games on the source
wbfs.exe %SOURCE% l > list.txt 2>&1

REM removes the first line of the file (disk size)
tail +2 list.txt > list2.txt

REM keeps only the game IDs
sed 's/ .*$//' list2.txt > list3.txt

REM for each ID, call the move function
for /F %%i in (list3.txt) do call :mv_iso %%i
goto :EOF

REM move function
:mv_iso
del /F /Q *.iso
wbfs %SOURCE% extract %1
for %%j in (*.iso) do wbfs %TARGEt% add %%j
del /F /Q *.iso
goto :EOF

5) in the transfert.bat file, edit (right-click, edit) the lines
set SOURCE=j
set TARGET=g
with the correct wbfs drives.
SOURCE = the code of the wbfs partition with the games
TARGET = the code of the target wbfs partition

6) run the transfert.bat script

Hi,

A WBFS Manager already does this operation: WBFS Intelligent GUI

Still, nice script!!

Ok, thanks for the link

2nd attempt

1) download WBFS Intelligent GUI https://www.megaupload.com/?d=OUDDAO9X
(source: https://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=149624 )
and extract the archive

2) create, with notepad a text file, which will be named: transfert.bat, with the following code:
@REM Done by pfi
@REM wbfs windows port build 'delta'. Mod v1.5 by flfl

@echo SOURCE and TARGET:
set SOURCE=j
set TARGET=g

@echo off

REM List the games on the source
wbfs.exe %SOURCE% l > list.txt 2>&1

REM for each id, call the move function
for /F %%i in (list.txt) do wbfs %SOURCE% copy %TARGET% %%i

3) in the transfert.bat file, edit (right click, edit) the lines
set SOURCE=j
set TARGET=g
with the right wbfs disks.
SOURCE = the code of the wbfs partition with the games
TARGET = the code of the target wbfs partition

4) run the transfert.bat script

Personally, I find that a GUI is good for one or two games to transfer. This script is perfect for making a full duplicate of a disk.

Edit: With wbfs delta mod1.5 by flfl, the l command no longer shows info on the disk. So you no longer need to delete the first line of the file.
