This will add the USB Loader to your homebew channel. -

You can also install a a channel forwarder to start the loader directly from the system menu. (Note: alternatively, a USB FAT partition can be used to store configuration and covers) Useful links: ------------Step-by-step installation instructions for Wii Homebrew and Cfg: http://gwht.wikidot.com The forwarder can be downloaded from here: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=147638&st=5745&p=2420653&#entry2420653 And installed with the WAD Manager. Game cover images can be downloaded from here: http://wiitdb.com Updated titles.txt can found here: http://wiitdb.com/titles.txt Default File locations: --------------config file: sd:/usb-loader/config.txt settings file: sd:/usb-loader/settings.cfg background image:sd:/usb-loader/background.png covers: 2d: sd:/usb-loader/covers/2d/*.png 3d: sd:/usb-loader/covers/3d/*.png disc: sd:/usb-loader/covers/disc/*.png full (and HQ): sd:/usb-loader/covers/full/*.png cache: sd:/usb-loader/covers/cache/*.ccc titles file: sd:/usb-loader/titles.txt themes: sd:/usb-loader/themes/THEME_NAME/theme.txt theme preview: sd:/usp-loader/themes/*.jpg ocarina cheat codes are searched in: sd:/usb-loader/codes/*.gct sd:/data/gecko/codes/*.gct sd:/codes/*.gct ocarina TXT cheat codes use the locations: Downloaded to: sd:/usb-loader/codes/*.txt Saved .gct to: sd:/usb-loader/codes/*.gct wiitdb: play history: .wip files: .bca files: .wdm files: sd:/usb-loader/wiitdb.zip sd:/usb-loader/playstats.txt sd:/usb-loader/GAMEID.wip sd:/usb-loader/GAMEID.bca sd:/usb-loader/GAMEID.wdm

Games on FAT/NTFS : usb:/wbfs/GAMEID.wbfs or: usb:/wbfs/TITLE [GAMEID].wbfs or: usb:/wbfs/GAMEID_TITLE/GAMEID.wbfs or: usb:/wbfs/TITLE [GAMEID]/GAMEID.wbfs (or sd:/ instead of usb:/)

These are default locations, background and covers are configurable. If config file is not found in sd:/usb-loader, then it is searched in: sd:/apps/USBLoader/config.txt (or whichever directory is used to start from homebrew channel) and if found, the base path is set to that location. Besides the global config file sd:/usb-loader/config.txt, also the config.txt in the apps directory is used, which by default is: sd:/apps/USBLoader/config.txt but depends from where the loader has been started from the homebrew channel. Another way to specify a config file is by using the wiiload utility from a PC, which allows additional arguments: C:\> wiiload usbloader.dol config21.txt which will load sd:/usb-loader/config21.txt And you can also pass config options directly: C:\> wiiload usbloader.dol video=ntsc So you can have different configurations depending on where it is started from. This can be useful so you can configure the loader started from forwarder to be simple/childproff, while if started from homebrew channel to include the installation and removal options. To achieve this, copy sd:/apps/USBLoader/ to sd:/apps/USBLoader_admin and then set simple=1 in sd:/apps/USBLoader/config.txt and edit (or delete) sd:/apps/USBLoader_admin/meta.xml to show a different name. USB FAT for config and covers: -----------------------------SD card is first searched for config.txt, if not found then USB HDD with a FAT partition is mounted as usb:/ and searched, for config.txt. in that case, all the paths mentioned above will be searched on usb:/ instead of sd:/ Advantage of using USB FAT for config and covers is faster loading of covers. (Usually USB HDD devices are faster than SD cards) If you want to load the application from SD card but use USB for config and covers, then copy everything in inSDroot to your USB FAT partition, but only the inSDroot/apps directory to SD card and delete sd:/apps/USBLoader/config.txt and sd:/usb-loader/config.txt. Note: To create 2 partitions on SD or USB thumb drives you have to use special tools like gparted: http://gparted.sourceforge.net/ Create 2 primary partitions, format both as FAT32 and then inside the loader re-format the SECOND partition to WBFS. Suggested partitions size if 200MB for config & covers and the rest for WBFS. Note: If you have problems accessing the fat partition make sure it is marked 'active' in the windows partition editor (or if you use gparted, mark the partition with the 'boot' flag) Limitations: - USB FAT is mounted only if config.txt is not found on SD. Themes: ------Another way to customize the loader is by using Themes.

A theme is defined by creating a config file in the location: sd:/usb-loader/themes/THEME_NAME/theme.txt And the background images: sd:/usb-loader/themes/THEME_NAME/background.png sd:/usb-loader/themes/THEME_NAME/background_wide.png The options that can be used in theme.txt are described below, basically only options that define the looks are accepted, everything else is ignored in theme.txt. Background image (background.png or specified with background option) for a theme will be searched first in the theme directory (sd:/usb-loader/themes/THEME_NAME/) and if not found it will be searched in the base directory (sd:/usb-loader/) Other themable gui resources: favorite.png pointer.png hourglass.png font_uni.png (new type 512 letters unicode) font.png (old type 128 letters ascii) font_clock.png window.png, page.png button.png, radio.png, checkbox.png Same search method as for the background image applies to these files. There are some example files in: usb-loader/resources, but note that the program does not search in that location, they need to be copied to the base or theme directory to be used. Background overlay support: additional images can be supplied that will be overlaid over the background: - bg_overlay.png or bg_overlay_w.png for console background - bg_gui_over.png or bg_gui_over_w.png for gui background If *_w.png variant is not found then the normal is used. If a theme is used then the overlay files are searched only in theme directories , not in base directories. Auto-scaling of background image: Since version 41 background width can be larger than 640 and will be either - scaled if widescreen - cropped if not widescreen down to 640x480. Note: height must still be 480. GUI buttons, icons and windows theme images: button images: button.png, radio.png, checkbox.png window images: window.png, page.png States: button images can contain a single button image or multiple images for different states: - normal, flash, hover, press, press hover, inactive Any number of buttons can be present, if some are missing then the normal state + coloring and effects are used to generate the missing state. A button width:height must be 2:1, so that the number of states can be calculated: num = height * 2 / width Scaling: a button is divided to 3 areas horizontally: 1/4 1/2 1/4 the first and last are scale proportionally while the middle is streched as much as requir ed. Round buttons only use the first and last parts. Similarily a window image is divided also to 3 areas vertically and same rules a pply. The image width and height must be divisible by 4.

GUI Mode: --------By default console mode is started. To switch to GUI mode, press B in main screen. While in GUI mode, the following buttons are used by default (they can be remapp ed): button A : start selected game button B : return to console mode button LEFT/RIGHT (Grid): previous/next page button LEFT/RIGHT (Coverflow) : rotate to next cover - hold down for fast ro tate. button UP/Down (Grid) : switch number of rows (1-3) button UP (Coverflow) : flip center cover to its back/front button DOWN : change gui styles (grid -> flow -> flow-z -> coverflow 3d -> e tc) button 1, +, - : options, install, remove button 2: favorites game list button HOME : exit The background image in GUI mode can be changed with the file: sd:/usb-loader/themes/Theme_Name/bg_gui.png or sd:/usb-loader/bg_gui.png Downloading covers -----------------Covers can be downloaded for all games at once or on a per-game basis. To download the covers for all games go to Global Options screen, move to "<Download All Covers>" and press button RIGHT or LEFT. There is a difference between LEFT and RIGHT buttons: - button RIGHT will download all MISSING covers. - button LEFT will download ALL covers, even the ones that are already present. To download the covers for the current selected game, go to Game Options screen, move to "Cover Image:" option and press RIGHT or LEFT. The same difference betwe en RIGHT and LEFT buttons apply here as with download all covers. The way how the covers are downloaded can be further customized with config opti ons download_* and url_*. See the documentation on these options below in the Config file section. Parental Control and Unlocking Admin Functionality -------------------------------------------------If the loader is configured with restricted functionality it can be unlocked with a password - a "secret" wiimote button combination. Restricted functionalit y means any of the options: "simple" or "disable_*" or "hide_game" are set, which is usually used for "Parental Control". When admin mode is unlocked it will allow you to access all the previously locked functionality. In addition: when unlocked, any games that are hidden with the hide_game option will be displayed. To access the unlock screen, hold the 1 button down for 5 seconds and the screen will appear. After you see the text "Enter Code:", press the wiimote buttons in the correct order. If you were successful, the word SUCCESS will appear

on the screen. Otherwise the word LOCKED! will appear. The unlock screen has a 30 second timeout limit so if an incorrect (or no) password is entered, it will automatically lock. To set the lock back on with the original settings intact, hold the 1 button for 5 seconds and the lock will automatically turn on. When the lo ader is started, the lock will always be enabled. This functionality is controlled by the option: admin_unlock = [1], 0. By default it is enabled. To disable the ability to unlock admin mode set the option to: admin_unlock = 0 The default admin unlock password is: BUDAH12 To change it, use the config option: unlock_password = [BUDAH12] The password length is limited to 10 characters. Do NOT use quotes around the password - just type what you want it to be. E.g. unlock_password = 12UDAB The following are the button to letter mappings for the password: D-Pad Up: U D-Pad Down: D D-Pad Right: R D-Pad Left: L B button: B A Button: A Minus button: M Plus button: P Home button: H 1 button: 1 2 button: 2 To hide certain games, use the the Game Options screen and toggle the "Hide Game " setting. This allows you to set which games are hidden when the admin mode is L OCKED. In order to see this option, admin_unlock must be enabled (which it is by defaul t) AND the admin mode must be in an unlocked state! - NOTE: this functionality completely replaces the hide_game option in config.tx t, but they CAN be used together. Any games currently listed in hide_game will be shown when unlocked, but will ALWAYS be marked as hidden by default in Game Options and cannot be changed to unhidden unless they are removed from config.txt - NOTE 2: An easy way to convert all your games in hide_game to this new functio nality is to start the loader with your hide_game still in config.txt and then go i nto Game Options in any game (you may have to unlock admin lock first) and chang e something and save it. All your hide_game entries will automatically be save d. Then you can remove the hide_game entry completely from config.txt. Various Controllers Button Mapping: There are 17 possible buttons, listed here with the controller mappings. ----------------------------------------------------------BUTTON WIIMOTE CLASSIC GC GUITAR NUNCHUK -----------------------------------------------------------

Theme options: ============== background = [background.png] wbackground = [background_wide.png] file to use for the background image. file can be an absolute path (like sd:/somedir/myimage.png) if the specified background is not an absolute path it is searched in theme directory (sd:/usb-loader/themes/THEME_NAME/) and in default directory (sd:/usb-loader) background_base = [background.png] wbackground_base = [background_wide.png] base background image over which the bg_overlay* files are overlaid. actually this option is the same as normal background option

If X and/or Y is set to -1, the Cover X and/or Y position is used. Either W or H (or both) should be set to zero to maintain the correct aspect ratios. If both are set to zero, the Cover width is used and the height is scaled accordingly. home = [reboot], exit, hbc, screenshot, priiloader, wii_menu, <magic word>, <channel ID> What to do when an exit button (typically home) is pressed in the menus Also changes the operation of button_H in the gui and game list. <magic word> is a 4 letter magic word for Priiloader <Channel ID> is a 4 letter channel ID in upper case to launch If home=screenshot then home has to be held for 1 second to make a screensho otherwise it will exit to HBC buttons=[options_1], options_B, original (change button controls layout in the gui and game list.) The button layout "options_1" is: button B - GUI mode button 1 - options menu The button layout "options_B" is: button B - options menu button 1 - GUI mode The button layout "original" is obsolete, but is: button 1 - options menu button B - nothing

Previously the entire FAT table had to be scanned to get the free space which could take up to a couple of minutes. This was also the reason the option hide_hddinfo=1 is set so that by default the free space is not displayed . * Added a way to manually scan and sync the free space in fsinfo. Go to global options / partition selection and press 2 Then all FAT filesystems will be shown and the free space for each By confirming with A the free space will be scanned again. If the scanned free space mathces fsinfo OK is displayed otherwise the correct free space, which is then stored to fsinfo. It is enough to do this once, after that the fsinfo should be kept in sync. (but using some other homebrew to write/delete data from FAT will make the info unsynced again, until all other apps are upgraded with the new libfat as well) * Minor change to usbstorage mem allocation (back to v63) (in case it fixes problems with v64 that were not in v63) 17-01-2011 cfg v64 (release) * Minor cosmetic fix in http error reporting

Downloading 2d covers will save to /usb-loader/covers/2d only if it exists, otherwise /usb-loader/covers is used - same as before.

22-02-2010 cfg v53b3 (beta3) * Fixed crash with cios222 v5 (happened with this combination: normal cfg.dol with options: ios=222-mload & partition=wbfs) * Fixed update progress ... notification 21-02-2010 cfg v53b2 (beta2) * More fixes for handling of corrupted cover images (usptactical) * Minor translation updates 20-02-2010 cfg v53b (beta) * Better handling of corrupted cover images - they should not crash the loader anymore and will be renamed to filename.bad (usptactical) * Japanese / Chinese translation and wiitdb support (oggzee) A new font file is required for this: unifont.dat * Removed ISFS from playlog (Clipper) * Scroll option screens if the console size is too small (Clipper) * Removed wiiboxart from URLs. (Clipper) * print cover download url and progress (oggzee) * force fat freespace update when installing (oggzee) 16-02-2010 cfg v53a (alpha) * cIOS 222/223/224 v5 support Note: only use 222 for loader, 223 and 224 will freeze if used for loader, however 223/224 work fine for games. That means, don't put ios=223-mload in config.txt, but it's ok if it is set for a specific game in options screen. * New option value for ios: 224-mload * Support for HDDs with 4k sectors (WBFS partition only) * Fixed option: home=hbc 13-02-2010 cfg v52 (release) * Left/Right hold repeat in console * GUI displays messages for sort, profile and theme switch. * Minor cleanups 12-02-2010 cfg v52b5 (beta5) * Fixed handling of multiline strings in .lang files * Minor translation updates 11-02-2010 cfg v52b4 (beta4) * New actions for buttons: sort (switch sort type), filter (filter menu) (Clipp er) * Button actions sort, profile and theme will display a message in the console (Clipper) * Holding any of the buttons in button_other in the GUI will work for menu_unlo ck (Clipper) * Fixed: title length 3 from folder names * Fixed: WiiTDB update crash * Handle &amp; etc. in wiitdb titles * fat_install_dir = 3 will use layout: /wbfs/Title [ID].wbfs * new option: fs_install_layout is an alias for fat_install_dir * Minor cleanups

09-02-2010 cfg v52b3 (beta3) * Button remapping options (Dr. Clipper) See below for information. * Previous home option is now a theme option with overrides * Reversion of boot disc to cIOS method (for real this time) * Fix for switching between NTFS partitions (oggzee) * Various translation and menu alignment fixes (oggzee) * Support for new filenames on FAT/NTFS: (oggzee) /wbfs/TITLE [GAMEID].wbfs or /wbfs/TITLE [GAMEID].iso * option: db_ignore_titles = [0], 1 Set this option to ignore titles from the database About button remapping: Firstly, the guitar default mappings have changed slightly. The new mappings are as follows: RED = A; GREEN = B; YELLOW = X; BLUE = Y; ORANGE = Z. Each of the following buttons can now have its own action: B, -, +, 1, 2, Home, X, Y, Z, C, L & R. These actions are valid for the console game list and the GUI mode only. For options that affect the menus, see below. The new options for this type of mapping are all theme options with config.txt overrides and are as follows: option: button_B = [gui], <other actions> button_- = [main_menu], <other actions> button_+ = [install], <other actions> button_H = [reboot], <other actions> button_1 = [options], <other actions> button_2 = [favorites], <other actions> button_X = A, B, 1, [2], H, -, +, <action> button_Y = A, B, [1], 2, H, -, +, <action> button_Z = A, [B], 1, 2, H, -, +, <action> button_C = [A], B, 1, 2, H, -, +, <action> button_L = A, B, 1, 2, H, [-], +, <action> button_R = A, B, 1, 2, H, -, [+], <action> These buttons can be mapped to any of the following actions: nothing # does nothing options # access game options gui # switch to/from GUI reboot # reboot to system menu exit # exit to launching app hbc # exit to HBC screenshot # take a screenshot install # install a game remove # remove a game main_menu # access main menu global_ops # access global options menu favorites # toggle favorites view boot_game # boot a game from the drive boot_disc # boot a game from disc theme # switch to next theme profile # switch to next profile unlock # access the unlock password dialog immediately As shown, X, Y, Z, C, L & R can also be optionally targetted to emulate one of the buttons on the Wiimote (A, B, 1, 2, -, +, Home). If used this way, this emulation will also work in menus. As stated, the other options allow you to select the default

action in the game list and GUI mode only. The menus can be remapped by specifying which buttons affect which commands. These options take a commas separated list of button names from the following list: B, 1, 2, -, M, Minus, +, P, Plus, H, Home, X, Y, Z, C, L, R The following are the mappable commands. All the options are theme options with overrides in config.txt. option: button_cancel = [B], <comma separated list of buttons> Set which button(s) will act as the back button in menus option: button_exit = [Home], <comma separated list of buttons> Set which button(s) will perform the 'home' action in menus option: button_other = [1], <comma separated list of buttons> Set which button(s) will perform the other or alternate action in menus This covers switching between options and global options, choosing to download BCA during install, choosing to ignore meta.xml during upgrade etc . option: button_save = [2], <comma separated list of buttons> Set which button(s) will perform the save action in menus EXAMPLES: To switch buttons B & 1 around so that 1 operates as GUI while B operates as back: button_B = options button_1 = gui button_other = B button_cancel = 1 To make both the L and R buttons on a GameCube controller operate as back buttons in the menus in addition to B: button_cancel = B, L, R Plug in the Classic controller and you can have any twelve different actions available at once (with A being boot_game): button_B = gui button_1 = options button_2 = favorites button_- = profile button_+ = theme button_H = exit button_L = remove button_R = install button_X = main_menu button_Y = global_ops button_Z = boot_disc 06-02-2010 cfg v52b2 (beta2) * File custom-titles.txt in the base directory is searched for game titles. * Titles are extracted from wiitdb.zip but can be overridden with either titles file. * The titles precedence (highest to lowest) is as follows: - custom-titles.txt - titles.txt - wiitdb.zip - directory name (FAT & NTFS only) - game image * When saving global options, the saved settings are listed.

* Console color fixes (Dr. Clipper) * Play time logging to message board (marc_max & Dr. Clipper) When enabled, this option will put the correct title and play time into the Wii Message Board log and will also be read by the Nintendo Channel. However, this will usually fail if you skip the Wii Menu via BootMii or Priiloader autoboot. * option: write_playlog = [0],1 Note, it is disabled by default as this fix changes your Wii's NAND and cannot be used via autoboot methods. 31-01-2010 cfg v52b (beta) * Gamecube disc loading Just like Wii discs, only original discs supported! * Wii disc loading now uses the disc specified IOS. This should increase game compatibility. * Console font outline and shadow fix by Dr. Clipper * Many translatable strings have been improved. * Cover URLs updated 23-01-2010 cfg v52a2 (alpha 2) * Fixed options. option: language_path has been removed. The path is now fixed at /usb-loader/languages/ option: language has been changed to translation to prevent conflicts with the game language setting. option: translation = [AUTO], EN, custom, etc 23-01-2010 cfg v52a (alpha) * Translation files now supported. option: language_path = path to language files Default: USBLOADER_PATH/languages option: language = filename without extension Default: Current the wii language from the following list JA, EN, DE, FR, ES, IT, NL, ZH, ZH, KO * Fixed crash issue if booting from disc failed * Database can now be named wiitdb.zip. The old naming scheme is still supported however. 17-01-2010 cfg v51 (release) * New Sort: last play date option: sort = play_date * Removed empty line from game list when showing database info * Secondary sort using titles added. Lists should be consistent when there are matching values now 13-01-2010 cfg v51b3 (beta3) * Fixed the ambiguity with the game dir layouts (ID_TITLE or TITLE [ID]) * fat_install_dir = 2 will use the new layout (TITLE [ID]) when installing * Removed redundant options from main menu. * Cleaned up the sort and filter menus. Improved sort menu. Ascending / descending options for current sort are remembered. * Color of database info now changed. * Install and disc boot menus will show [?] cover before a disc is read, and game cover for disc if found. 11-01-2010 cfg v51b2 (beta2) * More bug fixes

Loader no longer crashes when trying to sort or filter without a database. Accented characters now show up in the synopsis. Display of synopsis cleaned up and improved. Entities now converted in the synopsis. (&quot;, etc) Main menu will respect the disable_options configuration. sort=play_count now works properly without reloading the game list. 10-01-2010 cfg v51b (beta) * Minor bug fixes Loader will not wait for a button press in the event a database is not found. Disc boot menu will show the proper database information. * Changed db_url option and db_language option slightly option: db_url = [http://wiitdb.com/wiitdb.zip?LANG={DBL}] {DBL} will be replaced by the db_language value option: db_language = [AUTO], EN, JA, German, etc * option: "-asc" is no longer necessary to specify a sort as ascending. * db_show_info no longer hides the hdd info or footer in the console. * Added more game directory layouts: (by oggzee) /wbfs/TITLE_[GAMEID]/GAMEID.wbfs /wbfs/TITLE [GAMEID]/GAMEID.wbfs /wbfs/TITLE[GAMEID]/GAMEID.wbfs When loading games from FAT or NTFS * Added {PUB} to cover url options. {PUB} will be replaced by the last two characters of the ID (the publisher) This can be used to do things like forcing NTSC covers for PAL games by replacing {CC} with US and {ID6} with {ID3}E{PUB} 09-01-2010 cfg v51a (alpha) (gannon) * Wiitdb support. Can be downloaded inside the loader on the global options screen. * Enhanced nunchuk support: C mapped to A, Z mapped to B * Filtering of games based on certain criteria * Sorting of games based on certain criteria * Gameplay history * Disc Loading * New: Main menu accessible by pressing - or going to the global options screen. Disc loading, sorting, filtering, and more options are located here. * option: db_url = [http://wiitdb.com/wiitdb.zip?LANG={db_language}] URL to download database from. * option: db_language = [Console Language], EN, JA, German, etc Language to use for the database. If invalid or not able to be displayed by the loader this will default to English. Both country codes (EN) and languages (English) are valid. * option: db_show_info = [1], 0 Show info loaded from the database. * option: write_playstats = [1], 0 Write to the play history file. * option: sort = [title-asc], etc Change the default sorting method. Default is Title Ascending. Valid sort options: "title" => "players" => "online_players"=> "publisher" => "developer" => Title Number of Players Number of Online Players Publisher Developer

=> Release Date => Play Count => Install Date (This will only work with FAT or NTFS drives) To use ascending add "-asc" to the option. ie: sort = players-asc To use descending add "-desc" to the option. ie: sort = players-desc 21-12-2009 cfg v50c (bugfix) * Fixed starting games from SD Card with FAT or NTFS 16-12-2009 cfg v50 (release) * Optimizations for highly fragmented files (either fat or ntfs) 15-12-2009 cfg v50b2 (beta2) * Fixed crash when using flat /wbfs file layout without subdirectories * Fixed crashes when starting HBC forwarder discs And added safety checks of memory regions when loading disc * Raised number of fragments limit to 20000 * Properly identify dual-layer iso * Removed obsolete ehcmodules for IOS 222 revisions 2 and 3 External ehcmodules for these versions are still supported * Use the new ehcmodule with fat/ntfs support also for wbfs (but still uses wbfs mode for wbfs partition) Can be overriden using an external ehcmodule4 External module for fat/wbfs has been renamed from ehcmodule_fat.elf to ehcmodule_frag.elf * In case the new fragments method fails for any reason for FAT it will fallback to the old method * Other cleanups 14-12-2009 cfg v50b (beta) * .iso files on NTFS support The file name layout is the same as for .wbfs files: /wbfs/gameid.iso or /wbfs/gameid_title/gameid.iso * Fixes and cleanups for NTFS support (fixed ntfs getf -1 error) * option: partition=ntfs1 accepted About NTFS support: FAT support in ehcmodule has been rewritten with a new generic wii disc emulation system that is: - light weight / zero overhead - filesystem independent - fileformat independent It works by supplying the ehcmodule with a list of sector fragments that specify the location of data using direct sector addressing. To see the list of fragments one can use debug=1 and they will be printed out before starting the game. The number of fragments if limited to 5000, that number is also the max theoretical number of fragments on a wbfs partition (actually 4600, for a dual layer disc with a 2mb wbfs block size). In normal conditions the number of fragments should be a lot lower most commonly

"release" "play_count" "install"

just a single big block. Fragments are used to describe both physical address on hdd and virtual adress on wii disc so if a .wbfs file is used the list will be composed of 3 fragments - disc header, update partition and game partition. libntfs however doesn't seem stable enough for write access at the moment, so the ntfs partition is mounted read-only meaning install and remove can't be done from inside the loader for now. Credits: WiiPower for libntfs modification which returns the list of fragments. 12-12-2009 cfg v50a (alpha) * Fix for PeppaPig (from NeoGamma by WiiPower) * Fixes and cleanups for NTFS 10-12-2009 cfg v50x (experimental) * Rewritten FAT support in ehcmodule with a generic system * NTFS support * Improved gui speed with large number of games (most noticable in grid, flow and flow-z gui styles) * Print on the intro screen if the ios is reloaded a second time (in case the setting from config.txt is different from default) * The -fat version 'simple' option does not change 'hide_hddinfo' * Changed WBFS ERROR: read error while installing a game to a WARNING. Note: the read error check has been introduced in v47, all previous versions including the original loader 1.5 and all other loaders silently ignore it. * Changed default value of install_partition=only_game To avoid errors caused by modchips when trying to copy the update partition. * Minor cosmetic changes to cover download when trying different urls. 08-12-2009 cfg v49 (release) * * * * Fixed install game on SD/FAT Override [w]covers_size theme option with config.txt simple=x will always set hide_hddinfo when using -fat version Only one "#GAMEID" string inside binary - for direct starting

07-12-2009 cfg v49b2 (beta2) * Improved speed of loading game list when using FAT and /wbfs/id_title/ subdir s * Changed default: fat_install_dir=1 * When downloading titles.txt and wii region is JA or KO force EN in titles_url {CC} * Allow specifying alt_dol=name (on disc) when using direct start * Accept GAMEID without # as argument for direct start (RHAP01 instead of #RHAP 01) * Override some theme options in base config.txt. The options that can be overriden are those that don't have a major effect on the theme looks and layout: - hide_header - hide_hddinfo - hide_footer - buttons - simple - cover_style - cursor - menu_plus

- gui_text_* - gui_text2_* - gui_title_top * Save cfg loader version when saving gamelist.txt 03-12-2009 cfg v49b (beta) * Added BCA dump to file from install menu (Press + to install and then press 1 to dump BCA) 01-12-2009 cfg v49a (alpha) * Games on SDHC with IOS 222/223 for both FAT or WBFS partition * Games in subdirs on FAT: /wbfs/GAMEID_TITLE/GAMEID.wbfs option: fat_install_dir = [0], 1 * Rename old boot.dol to boot.dol.bak when upgrading * If the loader is used to start a game directly (from a channel created with crap or similar tools) and option: intro=0 is specified then no intro and no progress is displayed while the game is being loaded * Support for .wip game patches (by WiiPower) Loaded from: sd:/usb-loader/GAMEID.wip (text format) * Support for BCA data (by Hermes) Loaded from: sd:/usb-loader/GAMEID.bca (binary data of size 64 bytes) (updated dip plugin from uloader 3.2) * option: disable_nsmb_patch=[0],1 will disable the builtin nsmb patches (in case someone wants to use/test the external .wip patch or .bca data) * Enable WiiRD if usb gecko is connected and ocarina is enabled even if not codes are found (by Rfrf) * Ocarina url fix: /R/ID6 instead of /ID1/ID6 (for SNM*) 21-11-2009 cfg v48 (release) * External ehcmodule improvements (by WiiZ) * Fixed titles.txt with custom game ids (proper ID6 lookup) 20-11-2009 cfg v48b2 (beta2) * * * * * * * * * FAT loading speed optimisations Support for 4gb .wbfs files on FAT - fixed the 2gb limit Changed the default split size when installing to 4gb-32kb Option: fat_split_size = [4], 2 Benchmark mode with debug = 8 and start or install a game Allow space in profile name, so the names must be separated by a comma (,) Raised max favorites to 100 Removed obsolete cover sites: gateflorida.com, awiibit.com Cleanups

16-11-2009 cfg v48b (beta) * NSMB NTSC patch * Make updating meta.xml optional by pressing button 1 in the online update screen to skip it. * Specifying titles url allows the use of {CC} tag for the country code. changed default: titles_url = http://wiitdb.com/titles.txt?LANG={CC} * Presing button A on global options screen works too (same as right) 15-11-2009 cfg v48a (alpha)

* Profiles - aka multiple favorite groups option: profile_names = [default], name2, name3,... (max profiles:10, max profile name length: 16) Profiles can be added, removed and reordered with this option. But if you want to rename it, you will need to change the profile name also in settings.cfg otherwise it will be considered as a new name and the old one will be forgotten next time you save settings. Profiles can be switched in the global options screen. Changing a game favorite setting is done as usual in the game options screen. option: profile = name will specify the default profile to use saving global settings will also save which profile is used * Minor fix to favorites switching in console mode * Update /apps/.../meta.xml when downloading an update. So that the correct version is visible in HBC * Added 'Update titles.txt' to global options screen. option: titles_url = [http://wiitdb.com/titles.txt] Can be changed to a localized version like this: titles_url = http://wiitdb.com/titles.txt?LANG=FR 14-11-2009 cfg v47 (release) * Minor coverflow fixes * Cleanups 12-11-2009 cfg v47b3 (beta3) * Support for guitar controller in the loader (by gannon) * More banner sound fixes (opening.bnr case) * Changed the default value of the option: hide_hddinfo=1 But only for the -fat variant, because checking the disc free space on fat takes a few moments. * 4GB partition offset fixes * Increased the updates list length to 8 * Minor coverflow fixes 09-11-2009 cfg v47b2 (beta2) * NSMB main.dol patch by WiiPower * minor coverflow gui fixes 09-11-2009 cfg v47b (beta) * GC and classic controller and nunchuk joystick support (by gannon) * option: install_partitions = 1:1 disable scrubbing when installing, except for the last 256kb which are stil scrubbed because of the wbfs block size not aligned to wii disc size * Fixed banner sounds with games that have upper case OPENING.BNR (Thanks to RolloS60 from wiicoverflow) * Cleanups 06-11-2009 cfg v47a (alpha) * Better compatibility with weird WBFS partition setups: - WBFS on RAW disk device, without a partition table With such a setup the partition table will look like this: P# Size(GB) Type Mount Used ----------------------------RAW 500.00 WBFS1 [USED] - WBFS on EXTENDED partition. Normally a filesystem should reside on either a primary or logical partition, never on

an extended partition. Extended is just a container of logical partitions. However older version allowed this setup and so the support for it is back. The partition table will look like: P# Size(GB) Type Mount Used ----------------------------P#1 500.00 EXTEND/WBFS1 [USED] And the loader will also let you fix the partition table by pressing 1, which will change the partition type from EXTEND to a known data type (0x0b, which is also used for fat) 01-11-2009 cfg v46 (release) * Support for direct launching of games from fat (Useful for game channel launching, using loadstructor or similar tool) To specify direct loading from fat, the parameter has to be in form: #GAMEIDX Where X is 0-3 for wbfs and 4-9 for fat partitions (4 means first fat partiti on) * Automatically switch to ios222 in case ios249 is used for starting games from fat * Only allow IOS 222 and 223 in game options if fat partition is selected * Improved drawing speed in some coverflow gui modes * Cleanups 30-10-2009 cfg v46b (beta) * * * * Added option: partition = [WBFS1], ..., WBFS4, FAT1, ..., FAT9, ask Saving global settings will also save current selected partition Increased fat cache size in IOS module Load FAT module in IOS early in case config has: ios=222-mload (or ios=223-mload) and partition=FAT* So that IOS does not need to be reloaded another time before starting the game from a FAT partition * Added indication in global options if [FAT] module is loaded in IOS * Cleanups 26-10-2009 cfg v46a2 (alpha2) * Faster loading of game list from a fat partition - should be instant now. The only thing that has a slight delay is showing the hdd free space in console mode game list (if it is enabled) * Create game info file after installing on a FAT partition named: usb:/wbfs/GAMEID_TITLE.txt This makes it easier to tell the titles of installed games when using a filesystem explorer * Rephrased the warning message when no WBFS partition found * Allow to select partition if no wbfs partition is found and disable_format is on. * Minor cleanups in partition selection 25-10-2009 cfg v46a (alpha) * Loading games from a FAT32 partitions. The game file has to be located and named like this: usb:/wbfs/GAMEID.wbfs 16-10-2009 cfg v45 (release) * full package, no code changes 12-10-2009 cfg v45b2 (beta2)

* Fixed multiple WBFS partition support for drives larger than 1TB * Fixed "DVD in drive check" by patching the game (thanks giantpune) (only if IOS249 before rev12 or IOS222/223) 12-10-2009 cfg v45b (beta) * * * * * * * * * Updated ehcmodule for IOS222-mload from uLoader 3.1 Fixed disable_format option Show game info in options screen while scanning for alt.dols More IOS related warning notes: (thanks WiiPower) cIOS before rev14: possible 001 error source on new games (Wii Fit Plus) cIOS before rev13: need a disc in the drive cIOS before rev10: no sd/sdhc support cIOS before rev9: no usb support Changed the default for: download_id_len = [6] Changed IOS order - moved *-yal after *-mload Show version on intro screen Partition selection screen improvements The usual minor cleanups

11-10-2009 cfg v45a (alpha) * Multiple WBFS partitions support (from uLoader) Limitation: max 4 WBFS partitions on same drive supported by ios 222/223 * Print game size, dual-layer and wbfs free space in install screen * Save gamelist.txt when saving settings in global options screen * option: home = hbc will exit to Homebrew Channel (thanks to giantpune) (similar to home = exit, but might work better with forwarders) * Stability fixes: - Corrupted cover images should no longer crash the loader - Fixed hdd spin down/up at startup for some drive models (since v43, tnx Narol ez) - Don't print error if opening.bnr not found - mp3 playing stability fixes (fixes stuttering and slowdowns in rare occasions ) - fixed the few notes of music between banner sound and game start - minor cleanups * Added CIOS related warning notices: (thanks Clipper) - CIOS249 rev13 : unsupported "return to menu" to exit game - CIOS249 rev14 : unsupported dual layer (start, install) - CIOS249 : unsupported multiple WBFS - CIOS222 : unsupported SDHC WBFS * New intro screen (by Milcoi) 01-10-2009 cfg v44 (release) * * * * Full package Updated resources/fonts* with unicode and clock fonts Updated titles.txt (from wiitdb.com) Added localized resources/titles-XX.txt (EN, FR, DE, ES, IT, NL, PT)

* More banner sound fixes all 3 audio formats are implemented, so the few rare games that previously didn't play should work now. * Clock font can be changed with font_clock.png (either from theme or base dir) 27-09-2009 cfg v44b3 (beta3) * Banner sound fixes 27-09-2009 cfg v44b2 (beta2) * Play banner sound in the game start confirmation screen * option: clock_style=[24],12,12am,0 26-09-2009 cfg v44b (beta) * Updated ehcmodule for CIOS 222/223 rev4 to uloader 3.0C * Fixed ios argument from forwarder * Option: sort_ignore=A,An,The (sort_ignore=0 for old sort method) * Show clock in GUI mode if wiimote doesn't point at screen for 5 seconds * Skip gui transition at start * changed default: gui_text_outline=FF * Minor unicode fixes 22-09-2009 cfg v44a (alpha) * Improved coverflow gui mode: - better transitions between modes and console - fluid movement of covers * Latin unicode support for titles.txt (EN,ES,FR,DE,PT,IT) (not supported: Japanese, Korean or Chinese) New font name: font_uni.png (can be created with the Confugrator) Localized titles.txt can be downloaded from: http://wiitdb.com/titles.txt?LANG=FR * parse cmd line for ios=... before ios reload (used by forwarders) * Changed message for device init error to: Make sure USB port 0 is used! (The one nearest to the edge) * Scale intro to fullscreen in 576i mode 16-09-2009 cfg v43 (release) * minor code cleanups 13-09-2009 cfg v43b (beta) * * Improved antialiasing in coverflow (sharper) Reorganized game options screen: Allow to change saved options Unsaved changes are private per-game, not global Moved alt.dol selection to options menu

* Minor gui fixes: style switching, screen scale glitch 09-09-2009 cfg v42c (bugfix) * Fixed green bar when loading game with a different cios (222...) 08-09-2009 cfg v42 (release) * Fixed scrolling glitch in options screen with themes that have small console size * Modified intro screen (based on Milcoi design) * Moved larger themes to a separate package 07-09-2009 cfg v42b2 (beta2) * Fixed coverflow antialiasing in PAL 576i (50Hz) mode * Fixed occasional flashing in options screen * Intro screen (thanks to Milcoi) 03-09-2009 cfg v42b (beta) * Antialiasing in CoverFlow GUI modes. Can be tuned with option: gui_antialias = [4] {0-4} * cios 222/223 rev4 support: - using new dip_plugin and ehcmodule from uloader 3.0B - external ehcmodule for rev4 has to be named: ehcmodule4.elf - note: rev2&3 modules are still integrated and used appropriately. * Changed url tag CC value for portugal/brasil from PO to PT * Removed obsolete options: cover_url_*_wide, download_wide * Show 6 letter ID in game options screen * Better support for custom games in titles.txt - use full 6 letter IDs if available, otherwise 4 letter IDs still work same as before. Note: 6 letter ID in titles.txt was supported before but just 4 were used. * Show a note in the global options screen if there are multiple config.txt files used (one in base and another in apps/... dir) * Fixed occasional crash with the combination of options: video = game, video_patch = all * Minor fixes (thanks to wiimm) 01-09-2009 cfg v42a (alpha) * Ability to force progressive mode: (from NeoGamma) - Split 'patch' video mode to a separate option: video_patch = [0], 1, all - 'video_patch = all' will force all modes to the selected video mode. This will also force progressive / interlaced mode, depending on what is configured in wii settings. This can be used for example to force progressive mode if the game will otherwise use interlaced mode (MPT) - The equivalent of the old video = patch is now: video = system video_patch = 1 This will patch NTSC -> PAL modes if console is PAL and PAL -> NTSC modes if console is NTSC This will not change interlaced / progressive mode * Allow wiird to work if ocarina is enabled and no codes are found. 21-08-2009 cfg v41 (release)

* Fixed minor glitch with resized overlays * Increased hide game limit to 500 * Updated all themes in the package to use overlays (while still being backward compatible) * New themes included: (all using overlays) - NXE_transparent by Blue-K - Nature 3D by DonTlaloc - Black Cat by Milcoi 18-08-2009 cfg v41b (beta) * Streamlined steps in game install screen * Fixed green screen before starting game (from cloader) 17-08-2009 cfg v41a (alpha) * Improved theming: * Background overlay support additional images can be supplied that will be overlaid over the background: - bg_overlay.png or bg_overlay_w.png for console background - bg_gui_over.png or bg_gui_over_w.png for gui background If *_w.png variant is not found then the normal is used. New options: - background_base - wbackground_base - background_gui - wbackground_gui Used to specify the background base over which the overlays are applied. * background width can be larger than 640 and will be either - scaled if widescreen - cropped if not widescreen down to 640x480. Note: height must still be 480. * Option layout no longer re-sets the covers_size and wcovers_size So that a cover_style or [w]cover_size in front of layout works as expected. 09-08-2009 cfg v40 (release) * Increased timeout for entering password to 30 seconds * Renamed option admin_lock to admin_unlock as that better describes what it does - it allows you to unlock admin functionality * Fixed option unlock_password 08-08-2009 cfg v40b3 (beta3) * uLoader cIOS 222/223 rev3 support both rev2 and rev3 are supported ehcmodule for rev2 is updated to uloader 2.5 ehcmodule for rev3 is from uloader 2.8D external ehcmodule for rev2 has to be named: ehcmodule.elf external ehcmodule for rev3 has to be named: ehcmodule3.elf

* Minor GUI speed optimizations of rendering and cover loading * Admin unlock by password * Hide games from settings screen

* Added new config option (admin_lock = 0,[1]) for admin locking (i.e. Parental Mode). When this setting is enabled, it will allow all screens normally locked by th e simple or disable_* settings to be unlocked via a "secret" wiimote button com bination. In addition: when unlocked, any covers that are hidden with the hide_game opt ion will be displayed. To access the unlock screen, hold the 1 button down for 5-10 s econds and the screen will appear. After you see the text "Enter Code:", press the wiimote buttons in the correct order. If you were successful, the word SUCCESS will appear on the screen. Otherwise the word LOCKED! will appear. The unlock screen ha s a 15 second timeout limit so if an incorrect (or no) password is entered, it will automatically lock. To set the lock back on with the original settings intac t, hold the 1 button for 5-10 seconds and the lock will automatically turn on. When the loader is started, the lock will always be enabled, so there is no need to manually set the lock before you let the kiddies play. :) - NOTE: this option is enabled by default. * Added new config option (unlock_password = [BUDAH12]) to allow a custom butto n combination to be used for the admin_lock password. - NOTE: The password length is limited to 10 characters. Do NOT use quotes a round the password - just type what you want it to be. E.g. unlock_password = 12UDA B - The following are the button mappings for the password: D-Pad Up: U D-Pad Down: D D-Pad Right: R D-Pad Left: L B button: B A Button: A Minus button: M Plus button: P Home button: H 1 button: 1 2 button: 2 * Automatically hide uLoader's CFG entry, so hide_game=__CF is no longer needed . * Added new option on the Game Options screen called "Hide Game". This allows you to set which games are hidden when the admin lock is LOCKED. In order to see this option, admin_lock must be enabled (which it is by default) AND the admin loc k must be in an unlocked state! - NOTE: this functionality completely replaces the hide_game option, but they CAN be used together. Any games currently listed in hide_game will ALWAYS be m arked as hidden by default in Game Options and cannot be unhidden until they are removed

from hide_game. - NOTE 2: An easy way to convert all your games in hide_game to this new func tionality is to start the loader with your hide_game still in config.txt and then go into Game Options in any game (you may have to unlock admin lock first) and chan ge something and save it. All your hide_game entries will automatically be sa ved. Then you can remove the hide_game entry completely from config.txt. 06-08-2009 cfg v39c (bugfix) * Changed cheats url to: geckocodes.org * Fixed SD card access in games * GUI page number alignment 06-08-2009 cfg v39 (release) * * Fixed running games from SDHC GUI Text improvments: Fixed gui_text_color=black gui_text_outline and gui_text_shadow accept black and white too
