Change the title of a .wbfs game under wiiflow or on PC

Good evening,
I hope the title is understandable enough lol.
So here's my problem, I'm trying to change the name of a game displayed by Wiiflow with no success.
Let me explain, I use "wbfs file" to convert my iso to wbfs and I do get my folder with the game's name as well as its ID. In this folder I have my game in .wbfs and a .txt file containing the game's name and its ID. When I launch wiiflow everything works perfectly except that the game's title appears in uppercase and I really don't like that. I figured there must be a way to rename the title. So I renamed the folder and the .wbfs file but that's not where it comes from. Even changing the name in the .txt file that comes with the game doesn't do anything.
I went to look in the Wiiflow directory on my SD card but I don't find anything conclusive.
I hope someone can tell me the procedure to follow because right now I'm going around in circles. :mrgreen:

Thanks.

With wiibackup manager, you should manage it!

Thanks for your reply kalidor, I'll try with the tool you recommend.
You'd really help me a lot if Wii Backup Manager can do it. ;)

So, I still need help because I'm getting nowhere.
I renamed my game with the title I wanted it to have. Wii Backup Manager then created a "disc.info" file, but from what I understood this file is only used to speed up game listing on a fat32 partition. So under Wiiflow I still don't have the title I want for my game.
I noticed there were several options for changing the header of wbfs discs. I assume that option modifies the wbfs file and that's not what I'm looking for. Isn't there simply a file to edit in ":app/wiiflow" or ":/wiiflow" on the SD card?

In wiiflow, go to the download section, the second option lets you download the game titles (wiitdb).

Thanks kalidor, you gave me an important part of the solution. By downloading the "wiitdb" database, I got the creation of several files including "titles.ini" which didn't exist in the ":/wiiflow" directory of my SD card. And apparently without this file, there's no point creating a "custom_titles.ini" file since it's not taken into account.

Thank you so much Nasty, thanks to you I was finally able to rename my game the way I wanted! Your procedure helped me a ton. From the moment the "titles.ini" file is present in the ":/wiiflow" directory, the "custom_titles.ini" file lets you rename freely to your liking.

Thanks again to both of you. :D
