It doesn't bother me, it's an alpha!

An alpha version isn't meant to be accessible to a wide audience: it's an internal version. It's the first phase of actual software development after the application has been coded. Generally, a product in alpha test — we commonly use the English term alpha-test — doesn't have all the features planned for the final product, unlike a product in beta test which is supposed to be complete. The alpha therefore lacks certain features, and still contains quite a large number of bugs.

Please don't treat me like an idiot kalidor, I didn't say that.

An alpha version is, as you said: "a first phase of development". So where is the conclusion of that phase then? Where is the stable 3.0?
There isn't one because the new wiiflow devs are messy devs.

Edit: Ah, I might have reworded it after my edit..

Otherwise, am I dreaming or did we move to 3.1 Alpha without a stable 3.0? What kind of way to develop is that? Am I the only one bothered by this?

When will there be a proper stable version?!
Don't tell me that this or that rev is "stable", say instead that it has fewer bugs...

Also, Jiiwah, when you say there isn't much memory on the wii to develop a loader as important as wiiflow... Am I supposed to laugh? The Wii is a next-gen game console! We're not on an nes with 128 KB of RAM and 64 KB of video memory! We can run games like Xenoblade on it. Is it therefore normal that a simple loader with 2 3 animations and loading a few covers into memory overloads the wii's memory? I don't think so and noticing that it's the case is more than worrying...

Ah... It's a long way from the time when Wiiflow was so great (by that I mean: nice and bug-free) and ahead of the other loaders...

Do the wiiflow developers code with a development kit from Nintendo?

No!

Have you seen a bunch of homebrews on wii that run in 3d?

No either...


So, what are they doing?

They use unofficial dev libraries!

And if you believe that the GX or CFG coders reinvented the wheel, I suggest you send a PM to the designer of mighty channel and loader who wanted to make a wiiflow-style coverflow and who eventually gave up the idea last June, this being due to the wii's low memory. (hey does that remind you of something)

Why no stable rev 300?

Well it's new coders who respect migotu's work and who started by making a mod in case migotu came back.

They've moved on to other things...

Soon, you'll be able to ask why there's no Crysis 2 on wii :mrgreen:

Sigh, ah kids these days, you have to explain everything to them...

I'll add to what kalidor said that if you use wiiflow without themes, wiitdb, music, fanart, it works a lot better. And then you'll tell me, so why did they include these options. Well because miigotu thought he was the best coder in the world and did whatever he wanted.

And where did you see that the new coders are messy? I'd say quite the opposite, they created another google code precisely so as not to mess up the official one.
3.0 = nand emu (which for me works perfectly)
3.1 = DML (not tested)

OverjoY and FIX94 won't add any new option until there's a stable version and it takes time to work through after miigotu, his code being peculiar from what I've heard (I don't code, I can't judge)

Originally, there was already a coverflow in wiiflow that worked very well before Miigotu came and messed things up with his stupid options...

Otherwise, CFG uses 3D, themes, wiitdb and music and doesn't crash but here again, I well know that Miigotu messed things up.

Going from 3.0 to 3.1, DML was added. So they favored features over stability.

Otherwise, regarding unofficial libs, fine, but the gap is far too big for it not to be improvable at least a bit, so in any case, the code is far from perfect ;)

Well well another very constructive criticism from you safirion!

Listen, we don't criticize each other's work the way you do!

The Wiiflow coders do their best with what they have!

You love CFG, great, then stay with CFG and don't come bother us with our Wiiflow!

Go play in your sandbox with your shovel and your bucket, make some dust I'm coming.

Great, go give advice to OverJoy, you'll get a warm welcome!

For info, CFG's dev is a professional coder and has a fair amount of coding experience.

Wiiflow uses part of GX's and CFG's code.


But still CFG and GX are visually inferior.

As a former Wiigen writer, I can see you're very objective.

Soon, he'll tell us that sciifii is 100 times better than Modmii :93: :93: :93: :93:

safiron: I don't see what the point of your messages is other than trashing wiiflow. I find your behavior rather sad and ridiculous, well anyway you're still young. We get that you don't like wiiflow, so move along, because if you keep going, you'll end up criticizing even the logo and the name chosen for this loader.

It's not that I dislike WiiFlow. Quite the opposite: it really bugs me to see that the work of hibern and the few other devs who came after him was wrecked by Miigotu and that even today, development still isn't being done as seriously as it should be (even though I agree that OverJoy is much better for the project than Miigotu)...
That's it.

Hello,

Indeed the default.ini file is indeed missing from my folder, but even after downloading it and copying it into the /wiiflow/themes/ folder, nothing changes, still no way to change the display mode.

Regards.

safiron: it bugs me too (and plenty of others) but I have a lot of hope in FIX94 and OverjoY's work.

Gokuchan: my apologies, I didn't give you the right file. With this default.ini it should work a lot better.

I just retested 418, no nunchuk issues, no coverflow issues.

Nand backup ok, however if you get black screens with wiiwares and VCs, you need to set video mode to system.

This version is 95% stable, a good working base for Fix94 and Overjoy

Hello everyone.

On my SD card, I have a copy of my nand that I use with Mighty Channels to launch wads.

Is the latest version of wiiflow capable of launching these wads.

If so, how?

The current version of Wiiflow I'm using is r417.

Thanks!!!

Switch and get 418 and go, of course wiiflow is capable of launching an emulated nand with wiiwares and vcs extracted inside it.

If you get black screens, set the video settings to system.

:100: WiiFlow (Mod 3.0 r159)

INFORMATION
Following Miigotu's return (I won't dwell on the subject), I will no longer follow the official branch of WiiFlow, which for me isn't official anymore.
This topic is now dedicated to WiiFlow-Mod by FIX94 and OverjoY, as well as my themes and french.ini


Changelog
* A large number of bug fixes
* The ability to download the cover of a different country than that of WiiFlow's language, both officially and via custom
* A GameCube game dumper (slightly buggy)
