USBloader Ultimate Edition v7.4

Post by kyno »

Automatically translated from French.

Image unavailable (removed by its host) But what is it? USBLoader Ultimate Edition is a homebrew created by WiiShizzza, kwiirk, Hungyip84, fishears, nIxx, usptactical, Sorg, WiiPower, Forsaekn and others ^^ which is based on the USBloader v1.5 by Waninkoko, which allows reading backups from the USB ports of the Wii ( not SD !!). It notably adds cheat code support, language selection, etc... This version is open source so everyone can modify it to improve it. You must have the CIOS Rev10 MANDATORY You can download skins HERE
How to use it? Installation:
Rename the .dol file to boot.dol and place the downloaded files in /apps/usbloader/

Using the homebrew:
All the buttons are explained in the homebrew ;)

Adding isos that you already have on your computer and that have already been modified to be read with the USBLoader:
1) Your ISOs must be on the formatted hard drive
2) In the title.txt file, you must add [your game's title ID] = [your game's name]:

Example:
RFNP = Wii Fit
RHAP = Wii Play
RSPP = Wii Sports
RMGP = Super Mario Galaxy

If you don't know your game's title id, go to https://wiird.l0nk.org/wp/15
You can also choose the order in which your games appear:

Example:
RFNP = Wii Fit = 4
RHAP = Wii Play = 1
RSPP = Wii Sports = 2
RMGP = Super Mario Galaxy = 3

In this case, the order of appearance in the homebrew is therefore Wii Play, Wii Sports, Super Mario Galaxy and Wii Fit.

"Simple" mode:
Image unavailable (removed by its host)
To switch to "simple" mode, add this to the config.txt file:

Code: Select all

console_coords=40,71,340,290
console_color=7,15
covers_coords=446,109
New features:
- Added 2 new options: wconsole_coords and wcovers_coords. These are the same as console_coords et covers_coords but these work for Widescreen mode.
- Fixed a few bugs
- Re-encoding of some that may cause a few bugs
- Something else... (I don't know what xD)

A slightly stupid question :oops: , do we still need to stay on cIOS Rev 10 or can we stay on Rev 9? because I'm still running Rev 9 and Wiishizzza's Loader (but one of its early versions with covers), thanks.

you'll find one here > skin ultimate 7.X < click on skin at the top.
You'll also find mine, themed after naruto, but it's a version for 16:9 screens. You'll need to adjust the coordinates in the config.txt file
example: (w for 16:9 screen coordinates)

console_coords = 40,71,340,290
covers_coords = 446,109
wconsole_coords = 40,71,340,290
wcovers_coords = 482,110

These coordinates are complicated but once you get a feel for it you learn pretty fast and I had to try several times to succeed ^^

I wouldn't say complicated... but despite that I messed up the first time because I started from the bottom left when it's actually top left. It made sense to me because the coordinates were X,Y and placed on a coordinate axis, well that gives bottom left. Starting from the top right, actually you should say: X coordinate, -y :ugeek:

To change skins https://usob.cjb.net/ click on skins at the top, download the one you want.
Extract it on your SD card in: "apps/usbloader/"

For the covers of each game either:

-If you have internet on your wii, do: config "B" and "1" on the wiimote, to download them automatically :).
-If you don't have internet, create a folder "images" at the root of the SD card, rename each image with the game's ID in ".png"

Example for mario kart: RMCP01.png

Otherwise, does anyone know if there's a channel for this ultimate edition? Thanks.

otherwise set up the config.txt file with:

download = 1

the covers download will happen automatically

ps:
covers= 1 ... of course ;)

Small, slightly stupid question...
I installed this version of Wiishizza not long ago, but I haven't really looked into all its functions etc...
Hence this small question:

Where do you place the config.txt and title.txt file? :D

You need to place the config.txt and title.txt file in the boot.dol folder
that is: SD:\APPS\usbloder\
If you placed it in that folder of course.

Automatically translated from French.

In the earlier versions these 2 files absolutely had to be in SD:\APPS\usbloder\. I pointed out to them that this prevented having several versions. So now config.txt and titles.txt simply need to be with the boot.dol. It doesn't matter which folder. This lets you create several versions, a kid version where the settings and (un)installation are disabled and a "full" version for yourself.

as for the features we have:

auto detection 4:3 16:9 (remove the "widescreen" line to activate auto, 0 for 4:3, 1 for 16:9)
50hz, 60hz detection with the option to force it in the settings.

parental control on several levels in the titles.txt file
ex:
GameID = name I want to display = 0,1 or 2

that's it for the main ones...

What's the point of adding the ID? It's so we can play directly (well you get it!), it's pointless if you have to add it manually (am I wrong maybe?)

are you talking about the titles.txt file? It's used to display the game name however you want without changing the game's name in the iso.

Ok thanks!

Wait... Is formatting mandatory?

" Add isos that you already have on your computer and that are already modified to be read with the USBLoader:
1)Place the ISOs in /apps/usbloader/ "

If it doesn't read memory cards, why put the ISO in apps? And is it mandatory to format the USB key?

AND how come I can't download this theme on https://usob.cjb.net/

( This one and others: https://www.usob.pandorasims.net/backs/op.png ) Do I just need to click on it right? For me it just enlarges the image!

Nope well then, for the image ^^
you right click on the image, save as ==> you go into your SD card/image/ and there, you save it under the name BG.png, normally, it'll ask you if you want to overwrite the image that already has that name, or something like that ^^ and you say yes!

But if you go on the site, normally it asks you to download the image....

For the ISOs no, I was wrong, you need to put it in the formatted HD ^^' :oops:

Ah that's why! Wouldn't you happen to know a good Tuto? Because I read the comments and some say that for the skins you need to put them in apps, then usbloader... I don't understand anymore! And how come I have the "Simple Version"?


I'll still have plenty of questions ^^
