In English please.
Good evening,
I'm sure you can help me. In the image below, with the tab at the top middle highlighted, we have this display. Me, with the same tab, I only have three games displayed, in close-up. I would like my Wii to display the same thing with this tab.
Is it possible without installing themes, perhaps by modifying the settings, that my Wii gives me this display?
For information, I have 89 games.

From what i understand only 3 games show up regardless of what UI layout option you choose, right?
First make sure you're using the latest version of usbloadergx.
On pc, use WiiBackupManager and set it to load the games that're on your usb drive, if they show up there, all of them, check one of the missing ones (that didn't show up on usbloadergx) and check its hash (md5). If it passes that means the game file is good to use. If the game failed the check means it's corrupt, and could be a reason (not saying the reason) why it's not showing.
Now if WiiBackupManager only sees those 3 games too and not all the others, means naming of the game folders isn't correct. You can do it manually or just transfer those files with WiiBackupManager to your usb drive and they'll have the correct naming after.
Whatever usb drive you're using (flash or ext hdd) should atleast make your games appear in USBLoaderGX, however whether all of them will work or not is a separate matter (if you're using a usb flash drive)..
I'd also like to ask you to post a syscheck, you could be missing some softmods for all we know..

no no. All my 89 games are present. It's just that I would like to see two lines of games appear, with this tab.

You want it to look like in the first picture? Well that's not possible currently.
Uh, your could've been a bit better (on your OG post)..

Have you tried clicking the tab again? I know you can cycle through the different views to get what you want. If coughing multiple times on the tab didn't do it, let me know and I will figure it out on mine and let you know.

Time to shoot my shot, I've downloaded and installed usb loader gx through normal means on my Wii U (vWii), followed the procedure and it seems I'm facing a bug. When I select a channel the "Start" and "Settings" buttons just do not exist and it seems like banners for titles (Wii apps or games) are cropped weirdly. The attached image show how it looks.

I have the same issue with my vWii, same sd/hdd on my wii doesn't have any issues. I feel like I asked some ppl about it but either didn't get an answer or I can't locate it.

In any case, the buttons are still there, they're just invisible for some reason, if u click where they should be your games should launch.

Edit: if I get any more info or a better solution I'll share. I'll ask around on discord and see if I learn anything

hello everyone recently modded my wii and got Mario kart as my first game to make sure everything worked, which it did. i proceeded to add more games and the rest of them don’t work through USB loader gx and don’t show up on wiiflow just Mario kart. i tried Mario kart again and I got the same issue of a black screen, I went through custom ios installer again and that seemed to fix Mario kart but none of the other games work I tried a couple youtube videos and nothing seems to work. also when I want to exit from USB loader to the wii menu it stays on a black screen for about 5 minutes before taking me back anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

I often get DSI errors when trying to view Wii channels in the loader, does this happen to anyone else? I hope that doesn't corrupt my SD card.

Yea I've started getting those since upgrading to the latest version. Didn't have them in previous releases.

Other than that I'm happy to see the app getting new updates.

Update: Tested a few hours without my USB HDD attached, just running with the SD apps. Haven't seen the DSI exception so far. So it's something with the USB or maybe a file on it. But I didn't have this before the newer updates.
