Didn't understand it all. No SMS-speak please thanks ;)

I was looking at your profile... either you should update it or you should update your wii with ciosrev14 which is essential for usbloaders to work better.

there's no pack but you can download the covers one by one in full HQ FR or otherwise full HQ EN

Code: Select all

https://wiitdb.com/wiitdb/artwork/coverfullHQ/{loc}/{gameid6}.png
replace {loc} with FR and {gameid} with the game's id ^^ all in uppercase

example for the game r49p01=New Play Control: Donkey Kong Jungle Beat

or you can install 3.2E with a downgrade tutorial, except that in your case, given your firmware, you'll actually be doing an upgrade.
As for cios249, I'd advise you to replace rev10 with rev14, but to be sure of getting a clean version, on the installer's 2nd page, choose ios36 rather than the cios249 used by default.

Ok I saw there are several tutorials for downgrading, in my case upgrading my wii
which one would you recommend.

What's the best firmware and cios currently for loaders (wiiflow)

Thanks again

The firmware doesn't really matter for the loaders. On the other hand, cios249 rev14 installed as described just above and hermes's cios 222 and 223 installed as indicated on the topic's first page are essential. cios 202 is useful for other homebrews like Mplayer CE, WiiXplorer, etc... so might as well install it too.

Either way, for the firmware it's 3.2 or 4.1. the difference mainly comes down to your needs: 4.1 if you have wii sports resort or need to transfer channels (wad) to the SD to free up your wii's nand which is full. otherwise you can stay on 3.2

Good evening everyone,
For obiwanfranck as Oops pointed out, firmware 4.1 will let you store and launch your channels from the SD or SDHC card. Note that on 3.2, if you have an SDHC card you won't be able to copy your game saves onto it. You'll only be able to on a regular SD.
So if you're on 3.2 and want to save games, have Wiiware and Virtual Console games, your NAND risks filling up quickly.
For these reasons I'd recommend 4.1E.
For the CIOS: like Oops said: CIOS 249 rev 14 by Waninkoko, and CIOS 222/223 rev 4 by Hermes.
For the choice of TUTORIAL I'd recommend at first that you look toward one for a preloader or a bootmii, that will save you in case of a problem.
Wishing you good luck.

Wiiflow 1.0C

hibern just released a 1.0C version, open beta test for everyone. 1.0C doesn't bring anything new. hibern noticed that his environment got corrupted once again. When you're out of luck... you're out of luck. I'm not making a 1.0C pack tonight.

You can get the themes further down, they're still valid.

- for those who have more than rare bugs, like error rates of 7 to 9 times out of 10
- for those who have poor detection of their hdd
start by cleanly reinstalling cios249 as follows:
  1. download cios249 rev14

  2. Launch the cios installer rev14 but at the start, on the 2nd page, it offers you a choice of which ios will be used for the installation. Do not choose ios249, using left or right on the wiimote, look for ios36 then confirm to install.
  3. If you made a mistake somewhere, start over at step 1. This is very important.
  4. Test wiiflow v1.1 again please, thanks
What's new from hibern:
  • bug fix with cios 222/223 rev4. Hermes had included a bad version of the ehcmodule in the uloader 3.0B sources
  • fixed the lag when selecting the alternate dol
  • Fixed the corruption of my coding environment which may have caused the random black screen bug, but it's unlikely. and it's for this bug that I need your help.
  • added automatic anti-fix to avoid a black screen bug in certain cases for people who still haven't understood that they absolutely needed to install cios249 in rev14 for a better experience with wiiflow and, at the same time, with other loaders too.
  • No other changes
  • If you have certain problems launching certain games, it might not be caused by wiiflow even if it only happens with wiiflow. Bugs have been reported if rev14 is installed from rev13a/b. The solution is to reinstall rev14 by selecting ios36. Several installation tests have been done to confirm this.
  • I'm asking you to test as many games as possible and report bugs as quickly as possible. Looking into the causes of this black screen bug took me an enormous amount of time and I can't afford to keep doing it. I know it's not as fun as discovering new features, but I hope you'll test as many games and settings as possible.
    Thanks
You can also dive into the hermes cios installer 3.0 rev4

Created by a Frenchman - Hibern (Hibernatus) - this USBLoader is without a doubt the most beautiful of them all. However, it was neglected by some of you because it cruelly lacked certain features. Today, after several weeks of testing, in which Jiiwah and I took part, we're pleased to offer you this little gem.[/align]

CHANGELOG

Edit: For those who had the beta version, you absolutely must delete the "cache" folder that's in the SD:/wiiflow/ folder, then relaunch wiiflow v1.0

Edit bis: If you have an hdd with a fat/fat32 partition and you still want to keep the wiiflow folder on your SD to have easier access to covers, themes and other ".ini" files. You need to have the wiiflow.ini file on your SD in the wiiflow folder and add or edit the following line in [GENERAL]:

Code: Select all

data_on_usb=no


- 2 dols, primarily using cIOS 249 and 222. (for loading the wbfs partition)
- Alt-dol selection directly on the ISO.
- Compatible ISO launching via cIOS 249, 222, 223, 250.
- ocarina support
- parental control
- Works as a channel, on SD or HDD but also via Preloader.
- Storage of covers, themes and .ini files. On HDD or SD in the wiiflow folder. HDD by default if a FAT partition exists (option changeable).
- Priority download of covers matching your console's language. With exclusive full FR HQ cover 1024x680 for France (Thanks to Benjay and Wiitdb) then LQ 512x240 fr and if not found: LQ eng. Flat covers (one side) if the full cover doesn't exist.
- Download of 100% French titles.
- Random playback of OGG audio files in the wiiflow/music/ folder
- Multi-language.
- Compatible with themes with sound.
- And another exclusive - a real killer feature - that I'll let you discover on the first click on a cover.
I'm surely forgetting some...

1.1 Installing WiiFlow
------------------------------
You can install WiiFlow either on your SD card or on your hard drive. Each method has
advantages and disadvantages: if you install it on your SD card, you'll need the
SD card to run WiiFlow. You should always leave the SD card in your
Wii and it shouldn't be write-protected, otherwise WiiFlow won't work properly.
It's preferable to install WiiFlow on your hard drive, but you'll need a FAT partition
for it and a second WBFS partition for your Wii games. If you only have a
WBFS partition, you'll need to repartition your hard drive. This will delete all your Wii games
installed. So I'll explain both methods now:

1.2 Installing WiiFlow on an SD card
-----------------------------------------------
Just copy the contents of the archive to the root of your SD card. You should
get the following path:
SD:/wiiflow/language.ini
WiiFlow will save all settings and files in the SD:/wiiflow/ directory.
Exception: if you connect a hard drive with FAT and WBFS partitions, WiiFlow
will save its files on the FAT partition. To avoid this, you need to open the
SD:/wiiflow/wiiflow.ini file and add the line "data_on_usb = no" in the
[GENERAL] category. WiiFlow will ignore the FAT partition. If wiiflow.ini isn't there, copy the one
that was created on the hard drive.

1.3 Installing WiiFlow on a hard drive
------------------------------------------------
You need to divide your hard drive into at least two partitions to install
WiiFlow on one of them. One is the WBFS partition which contains all the Wii games
and the other is a FAT16 or FAT32 partition and contains WiiFlow's data.
(If you only have a WBFS partition on your hard drive, you'll need to reformat it
into two parts. The first in FAT and the second in WBFS. You will lose
all the games already installed.)
Once you've got that, just copy the contents of the archive onto your
external hard drive. You should get the following path:
USB:/wiiflow/language.ini
WiiFlow will save all settings and files in the USB:/wiiflow/ directory.
Exception: if you put an SD card with the entry "data_on_usb = no" in wiiflow.ini
into your Wii, WiiFlow will use the SD folder and not the one on your hard drive.

1.4 Starting WiiFlow
-----------------------
You can launch WiiFlow by running the boot.dol from the archive. WiiFlow starts
from anywhere. It doesn't care about the current directory. It will work in the
directory where you installed it (SD:/wiiflow or USB:/wiiflow). But I'll
explain a few options for starting WiiFlow:
1.4.1) Starting WiiFlow via the Homebrew Channel
You need to save the "boot.dol" file in the SD:/apps/wiiflow/ directory so that
the Homebrew Channel can find it. The meta.xml and icon.png files also belong in 
this directory, but they aren't required to run it.
1.4.2) Starting WiiFlow via a WiiFlow channel
If you have a WiiFlow channel (not a forwarder), the boot.dol is already inside
and it will be launched. There's no need to save it anywhere else.
You can install one of these channels with the help of a WAD-Manager.
1.4.3) Starting WiiFlow via a Forwarder channel
A forwarder is a channel that runs a specific file in a specific directory.
So you need to rename the boot.dol and place it in the folder the
forwarder looks for so it can find it. Ask the forwarder's author which folder is needed.
1.4.4) Starting WiiFlow via Preloader
Rename boot.dol to WiiFlow.dol and save it to the root of your SD card. Now
start Preloader and select "Load/Install File" then select "WiiFlow.dol".
After a short while the file is installed and you can automatically start
WiiFlow when your Wii boots up.



2.1 to 2.7 not translated (sorry)
---------------------------------------
!!! I skipped translating these points because WiiFlow should be!!!
!!! self-explanatory. I'll do it later to avoid delaying the release.!!!



3.1 Playing background music
--------------------------------
If you want to listen to music in WiiFlow, you can copy one or more
audio files into /wiiflow/music/. WiiFlow plays one of these files in random order each
time you start it. When the music reaches its end, it will start again.
If you want WiiFlow to play another file, you need to restart while holding
the B button and pressing Home. WiiFlow only plays OGG files and is not
compatible with the MP3 format, but there are free converters.

3.2) Installing themes
-------------------------------
You can change WiiFlow's appearance by installing an additional theme. You can
either download a theme or create one yourself. To install a theme, just copy it
into the /wiiflow/themes/ directory. A theme consists of an ini file and a directory,
which contains the images and fonts. You just need to check that both have the same name
(for example the file "/wiiflow/themes/pear.ini" belongs to the directory
"/wiiflow/themes/pear/" and to all the files inside it).
After copying the ini file and its directory, you can choose this theme in the settings.

3.3) WiiFlow graphic settings (main screen and game selection screen)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This feature was made to help theme designers even though all this
may seem a bit complicated. You can customize WiiFlow by clicking on
"Adjust Coverflow" in the settings on page 2/6. You can move the
covers, the camera and much more with it. You can even set
the swaying of the covers. I won't explain the various functions here.
Just try it yourself. At the top of the screen, you'll find
a few buttons. On the left edge, they're reserved for changing the current view.
In the middle, you can switch between the different functions and on the right edge
are the buttons to save or to exit without saving your changes.
The settings themselves are on the bottom of the screen. You can copy everything by holding
down the B button and pressing 1. Now you can move to another viewpoint,
hold the B button again and press 2 to "paste". Your changes
will be saved inside the ini file that belongs to the theme. While you're
adjusting a setting, press B to speed up (so press B + A instead
of pressing only A when you click the button).

3.4 Configuring the ini file
-----------------------------------
WiiFlow will create the /wiiflow/wiiflow.ini file the first time it runs. It will save
all the settings inside it. You can open and edit this file with your PC,
but the default Windows editor "notepad" can't display it correctly. So you need to
use Wordpad on Windows (and avoid any text formatting) or a better text editor
like Notepad++. I'm only going to explain the settings you can't find
inside WiiFlow. All settings must be inside the [GENERAL] category:

data_on_usb = no: WiiFlow will ignore the FAT partition on your hard drive and
use the SD card instead (as explained during installation).
compress_cache = no: This is a useless zlib compression of cache covers.
Just ignore this setting and leave it on "no".
cover_buffer = 120: The maximum number of covers stored in memory. 120 is a good
value for a resolution of 512x512 pixels or 1024x1024 pixels per cover.
keep_png = yes: WiiFlow only works with covers that are in the cache folder.
Here, you can force WiiFlow to delete the png file, after a cache file has been created.
max_fsaa = 5: Maximum anti-aliasing (here: 5x). This would be the limit set in each theme
and a value above five is rarely fast enough for WiiFlow. So the anti-aliasing
applied is the minimum between this value and the one found in the theme's description.
url_flat_covers =...: Here you can enter the URLs for the cover faces.
url_full_covers =...: Same as above, but for full covers (front and back).

You can enter more URLs here by separating them with the "|" character. WiiFlow uses the
variables you want to use to specify the cover search. Use either {gameid4} or
{gameid6} to indicate the game ID (with 4 or 6 letters). Use {loc} to indicate the country code
(as used on wiitdb) and {region} for the game region (as used on wiiboxart).
Translation by google... nah just kidding... By my buddy Jiiwah with 2 i's :93:

FAQ:
Spoiler
So let's go over a few questions that have been asked about wiiflow:

* Question: What is cIOS250?

# Answer from Hibern: "cIOS 250 is a backup of 249 which was installed with rev10 I believe. 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 be useful. Of course cIOS250 has to be installed for it to work."

* Question: In the game-specific options, page 3, there's a video mode patch with several options: normal, all, more, 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 you want. This means that when the game itself changes the video mode, it will actually apply ours instead. The different tolerance levels are meant to avoid making too drastic 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)
- More: replaces a video mode if it has the same mode (progressive/interlaced)
- All: replaces everything without testing. You need to have chosen PAL50, PAL60 or NTSC in the video mode for this 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 above all even dumber!
Oops, I should have removed that option. Especially since I didn't copy-paste the new one, I rewrote it in a simpler way.
"

* Question: The must-have for the next version, if someone who's in touch with hibern could mention it to him:
A small 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 afterwards if people don't like it, you just have to go remove it in our wiiflow's options :)

(Also, a while back I wanted a loader like this, I'd posted a topic about it xD)

# Answer: "Regarding game animations, I thought usbloader gx had always wanted to do it, but it seems they haven't made any progress at all.
I was tempted to do it myself since 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 just to do the same thing worse, it's not worth it.
In wiiflow I would have displayed animated icons projected onto "covers" (so flat covers with a 4:3 ratio and animated).
But I'm not sure it would be as practical as the game boxes, and I simply have other things to do.


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

# Answer from Hibern: "No usb loader integrates the new cheat system. The first to do it will probably be neogamma, which failed on a first attempt."

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

# Answer: "Ocarina should work as before, but I modified 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 activate ocarina, I disable code that's needed for online play (and maybe a few other small things). This is to avoid encouraging cheating. So, for cheating you need to use another loader. Another thing: if a game crashes with ocarina activated, I really don't care, I can't take a bug report into account when I'm not sure of the game's integrity."

"So here's my answer to all the questions about ocarina:
- Wiiflow is a loader intended for simple people who are happy just playing games normally. This kind of cheating ruins all the magic by giving the impression of playing a game still in development in debug mode. Making it 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 everyone who uses wiiflow the means to ruin games.
"

"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 must be
named after the game's ID.
"

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

:shock: Whoa! He's very hard on ocarina users. I approve 100% because for those who, like me, love online play and one day found themselves facing a guy with infinite ammo, "deadly" special 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/

Hi everyone, for my part wiiflow runs 70+ games flawlessly, I'm going to test more, the only one that didn't work is mortal Kombat Armageddon black screen

another thing, a small suggestion regarding wiiflow, it would be nice if it could manage several wbfs partitions like uloader does, having a 500Go drive partitioned into 2 wbfs, Uloader is the only one that can switch from one partition to the other otherwise Wiiflow is the best loader

thanks again for this loader

ps: I'll keep you posted if I have other games that cause problems

Hello everyone,

so, I've been using Wiiflow1.0c for a little while and I'm more than happy with it.

I have a small problem with Brave a Warrior's Tale. Systematic black screen. I tried lots of different things in the config (002, block ios...) and nothing works...

For info, I use Cios 249 rev14, 3.2E.

Does anyone have a solution? Thanks

Try 1.0D and otherwise try reinstalling the iso because for me it works very well with the default settings and on every version of Wiiflow I've been able to test.
