So let's go over a few questions that were asked about wiiflow:

* Question: What is cIOS250?

# Hibern's answer: "cIOS 250 is a backup of the 249 that was installed with rev10 I think. A tester asked me for it. At most if an old game works better with rev10 than with 14 (super smash bros brawl?) this option might possibly be useful. Of course cIOS250 must be installed for it to work."

* Question: In the game-specific options, page 3, there's a video mode patch with several choices: normal, all, plus, none... What is its function?

# Answer: The video mode patch consists of searching the game's dol for the video mode descriptions, and replacing them with the mode we want. That means that when the game itself changes the video mode it will actually apply ours. The different tolerance levels are meant to avoid making too abrupt a replacement, like replacing 576i with 480p:
- Normal: replaces a video mode if it has the same resolution (number of lines) and the same mode (progressive/interlaced)
- Plus: replaces a video mode if it has the same mode (progressive/interlaced)
- All: replaces everything with no check. You need to have chosen PAL50, PAL60 or NTSC in the video mode for it to take effect (Default and Auto Patch are ignored).


"And actually it's the same thing as the video mode patch but with automatic mode selection, and especially even more dumb!
Oops, I should have removed that option. Especially since the new one, I didn't copy-paste it, I rewrote it more simply.
"

* Question: The must-have for the next version, if someone who's in contact with hibern could mention it to him:
A little video animation when you click on a cover (And the video is in the background, but you can still see the cover and the "Play" button)

And afterward if people don't like it, well you just remove it in our wiiflow's options :)

(Plus a long time ago I wanted a loader like this, I had posted a topic about it xD)

# Answer: "Regarding game animation, I thought usbloader gx had always wanted to do it, but it looks like they haven't made any progress on it at all.
I was tempted to do it myself because it's not complicated, but I don't like unfinished work, and it would have taken me too much time.
There's already a very well made interface that reads channels perfectly, and that can launch games from a USB hard drive, it's called System Menu. lol
If it's to do the same thing but worse, it's not worth it.
In wiiflow I would have displayed the animated icons projected onto "covers" (so flat covers with 4:3 proportions and animated).
But I'm not sure it would be as practical as game boxes, and I simply have other things to do.


* Question: "Otherwise does the built-in Ocarina version support the new code types?
(For example the one to counter error 20102 lol)"

# Hibern's answer: "No usb loader integrates the new cheat system. The first to do it will maybe be neogamma which botched a first attempt."

* Question: Wiiflow and ocarina: does it Work? And how?

# Answer: "Ocarina should work like before, but I changed how it works so it interferes as little as possible with loading the game. I tested it on a game and it still worked. The only thing that changed is that when you enable ocarina I disable code that's necessary for online play (and maybe a few other small things). This is to not encourage cheating. So, for cheating you need to use another loader. Another thing: if a game crashes and ocarina is enabled I really don't care, I can't take into account a bug report when I'm not sure of the game's integrity."

"Alright so here's my answer to all the questions about ocarina:
- Wiiflow is a loader meant for simple people who are happy just playing games normally. This kind of cheating spoils all the magic by giving the impression of playing in debug mode a game that's still in development. Making that too easy is like integrating a spoiler download into a media player.
- For tinkerers who need ocarina, I think they need a specialized loader, rather than giving the means to spoil the games to everyone who would use wiiflow.
"

"To use ocarina in wiiflow you need to use software that
converts a TXT into a GCT, and copy the GCT into /codes/. A GCT is named
after the game's ID.
"

end ----------------------------------

:shock: Wow! He's really hard on ocarina users. I fully approve because for those who, like me, love online play and one day found themselves facing a guy with infinite ammo, special "killer" weapons at will and on top of that full armor... well I say:
:62:

When he says "in /codes/" I assume sd or usb:/code/

Aww... My little animation :(

In the background it would have been perfect but oh well

Thanks!


PS: As for the system menu I don't like it too loaded

Good evening all
I got it, the video is more than tempting.

But a small question before switching completely.

Do Wii Sport Resort, Guitar Hero 5, Rock Band Beatles and especially Metroid Trilogy work with WiiFlow???

If so, I'm ditching Usb Loader GX right away.

Best regards

Except for Rock Band Beatles which I don't know, everything works. But I think Rock Band Beatles works like guitar 5, with cios223.

Hi
Small feedback from me, really nice this loader :bravo:

only 3 games don't work for me...

rayman raving rabbids 2
Metal slug Anto
sega superstars Tennis

I wonder if the files aren't corrupted on my HDD... with NeoGamma I also get error codes (1254) yet I'm sure I've already launched them through usb loader... I'm going to try re-ripping my dvds onto my hdd :?
in all 3 cases I didn't have the "cherry" when clicking on the cover
oh and one last little thing the Metroid Corruption from the trilogy no way either... at least 1 and 2 work perfectly but 3 with or without the dvd in the drive nada :evil: ,
well I have Metroid Prime Corruption so np.

Personally I'm keeping GX for their activity on GBAtemp and the frequent updates....

and thanks Hibernatus :bravo:

You must have a problem because rayman raving rabbids 2 and sega superstars Tennis work really well for me.
However I don't have Metal slug Anto but there's no reason it wouldn't work.
A corruption of the iso on your pc or of the iso on the wbfs partition is a strong possibility.

:93: If you have metroid prime trilogy in DVD5 version that means there's only 1 and 2 so there's no way you'd be able to launch 3 :roll:

well if that happens to you, you'll know what to do :98:
thanks for the quick reply Oops.
OT/
Well anyway for MP3 it's not the end of the world since I have it in Dvd5 but it bugs me not to find :evil: . does it launch fine for you? (for me black screen, wiimote lit up, and the HDD flatlined :mrgreen: )

Ahhh I thought you had a dvd5 version of MPT (a mod where the 3rd title isn't included).

Which cios do you use to launch the 3rd game? which installer version did you use? which option did you choose during installation?

- cios 222 installed with rev 3 of Hermes and configured by default.
with the error002 fix On
what's weird is that 1 and 2 launch with no problem...
I made my backup with the original dvd and not via usb loader.
there you go otherwise I'm on 3.2 with rev14

Clearly something's off and clearly wiiflow isn't to blame because it works really well for me. Try dumping the iso onto your wbfs partition again.

Perfect
Talk about a waste of time...well I'm not going to dump with GX anymore, or maybe it's my drive acting up I don't know :?
Thanks for your help Oops
PS: Metal slug and the rabbids work perfectly too :bravo:

So for me GX in .dol and WiiFlow as channel
