Hacking ncWBFSTool

[bastyen]

Hello,

I bought a Wode and I have a lot of game in a ntfs HDD. These games are in .wbi format and I want to put them in .wbfs format on my ntfs HDD.
Do you know if it's possible ?

Sorry for my english... ;-)

Best regards

PS : it is possible to add to this software an option to convert .wbi format to .wbfs format ?

doesnt look like nubecoder's interested in this anymore. Dont even suggest the 'official support' forum for this tool
he hasnt replied to anything posted there since dec 2009..

Issues with FreeAgent Desk™ 1.0-TB USB 2.0 Drive.. no support for using that drive with ncwbfstool. It worked perfectly
for almost a year then suddenly after adding a couple new games, ncwbfstool refuses to 'see' the drive anymore.
earliest version sees the drive ok, but too many options added between that version & latest version that ive grown used too.

hopefully he comes back around to sort it out.

simply enable "Enhanced Drive Detection" from the "Config" tab then it should see the drive again, not to hard to figure out

Wii Backup Manager is better IMHO as its up to date and very stable and doesnt need .NET

enhanced drive detection IS set to on, always has been..

Backed up drive, formatted it with ncWBFSTool and it works UNTIL i hit the 501 game mark.. Then it looses the drive agian!!
Works OK till the 500 mark, but as soon as it goes 501 its gone.

It's a WBFS partition, I take it?

WBFS partitions have a 500 game limit.

Is there any limit for fat32 or just the size of the HD

There's no limit on FAT32. You should use a different tool to manage the drive, though. Wii Backup Manager (gui) or WIT+WWT (powerful command-line tools.)

though the creator of this pc app hasn't been around for about a year
i have to thank him/her because WBFS manager just WASN'T working for me after two weeks of constant fatal error and crash at start up.

I got tired of it and came across this wonderful and cool looking app with its skin mode ahh that's nice.

Alright, I'm having a major issue with this program. I managed to fix my broken partition and format it so that games will work on it again, but when I took all my games off the partition prior to formatting it, something went wrong, and a huge chunk of my games appear in gibberish when I click on "Add Games". Any attempt to add these games gives a "not enough space" error, and all attempts to use other managers has failed.

Thanks in advance.

This manager hasn't been updated in over a year. Use another manager. WiiBackupManager is good, or wit.
