BIG MOE · Apr 15, 2009

I'm pretty sure with the great and fast process of the work that has been done on the USB Loader Since the release day by Waninkoko triggered many talented Coders and Programmers to look forward to add their finger print on a slice or two of the pie <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> .

-Image downloading .
-Added config option (ocarina, video, language, savesettings, entrylines, download)
-For ocarina, video, language, the loader would use the saved settings if saved settings are detected.
-savesettings is the option to save the (ocarina, video and language) settings into the game.
-entrylines is the number of entry lines displayed on the screen.
-download = 0 would disable the download boxart feature. download = 1 would turn it on (default is off)
The image reload bug should also be fixed in this version. Please let us know if it works .
-Now savings would be saved to SD card instead (in the same directory as your boot.dol) (Thanks for oggzee's work)
-Now the loader would load config.txt and titles.txt from the boot.dol directory instead of (SD:/apps/usbloader), so you can have multiple loaders with different config.
-Added config option "max_characters". Default is set to "max_characters = 37", this option allow you to edit the number of characters being displayed per line.

Here's a very Beta version of my hacked 1.1 usb loader with only a couple simple mods:
- childproof (no game loads, no game deletes, no drive formatting)
- displays game images from the SD card
- displays background image from the SD card
Notes:
- This was just a proof-of-concept and for my son to see the images since he can't read yet.
- This will currently (probably) only work off the SD card
- Images are placed in the images directory ( currently NOT in the SD root, so it should be /apps/[whatever]/images/ with the boot.dol under /apps/[whatever]/)
- Images should be 160x225, but they will display if larger (but not recommended).
- Images must be named with the diskId IN CAPS! E.g. RMGE01.png NOT rmge01.png and NOT RMGE01.PNG
- blank.png is used to blank out the previous image before loading the next. I suppose I could have just reloaded the background, but whatever.
- noimage.png is displayed if you don't currently have an image for the game.
- background.png is the background image
- There are no other hacks to this (e.g. NTSC/PAL)
- I will probably stop using this when the next project is released.
- Images go in root as always in folder images and background in there too name bg.png.
-I change how the loader mounts to sd in usb-loader.c. Also I made the menu.c unmount the sd when a game is selected to boot.
For Ocarina I didn't found the codes when I made the changes. So I made fst.c mount the sd after you chose the game and then unmount if it doesn't find codes or if you select to applied the codes to unmount after the codes ha been loaded.

Ok guys this should fix pretty much all issues including vista 64 bit support and the infamous error 9.
Before you use this understand that it is mostly UNTESTED because I've been away for personal reasons. There could be bugs... don't complain if you find one, just report it.
The new version supports advanced "templates" for using custom dols, so in theory all these dol hacks floating around should work BUT I insist that we convert them into proper templates.

I have taken the lads (Kosaic and maddoc ) images and written a quick PHP page (im in work so cant do too much) and ill start to fill in the blanks as we go and later ill add an upload page , but i think if this is kept up to date it may help others going forward.

Anyone requesting new covers please supply ....

You will get the game id by loading it from some the USB loaders and some of the PC tools also show it.

<a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?hwwomymtzgg" target="_blank">Click Here To Download NTSC Wads Pack 2 (M-Z) </a>

Here is a compilation of wads made from every NTSC wad/banner I could get ahold of. More will be added as they become available.

These all use Waninkoko's USB loader 1.1 code, modded by joda and run silent...so if you can run Waninkoko's USB loader then you can run this without any additional cIOSs. This also means the "date bug" is fixed in all of them. The last 4 letters in the WAD's filename are the channel ID they install as. They are all uploaded rar'ed to prevent you from being able to install a corrupted wad download.
EDIT - Note on 1.4 USB Loader update: Since the changes in USB Loader 1.4 primarily affect the interface and options available there and not the actual loading of a game on a same-region console, there is no reason that any of these channels need to be changed nor is there even a reason to build new channels using 1.4. The only thing that would cause need of a new wad would be for those that cannot load due to IOS conflict and that has not been resolved yet. When it is, new channels will be available. Video mode forcing is beyond the scope of what I'm attempting as stated at the bottom of the post.
Please note that while these channels are here, not all the games load properly using this code. Please check the USB Loader compatibility wiki here at gbatemp. I have heard tales of people being able to edit the boot.dol in some of the game discs and get them to work but I've no idea about that kind of magick and wizardry.

nice work. this looks useful if kept updated.

zorglub07 · Apr 16, 2009

Thanks for this initiative, I hope it will bring a little order, it was much needed!
maybe there is too much green/colors though, and not enough black/caps/bold?

I have a request, please link to the titles.txt topic:
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=148687

and the wiki, which will always be the most up to date version if people contribute :

LORD BIG MOE! you know what sounds good? yanking out that slow SD reader, replacing the zif-to-cf cable (or whatever ribbon is used, i know nothing about the wii sorry guys) with a 0.3mm to 0.2mm zif cable to a solid state drive, and get speeds faster than a north-east brazillian monkey. ahhh this brings me back to the Doctor V64 days. You have a detailed spec sheet for the wii by any chance? im bored.
