• USB Loader GX 2.3



    USB Loader GX 2.3 released. This new public release includes some new features, changed, and fixed features. See below for more info and download links.

    New:
    - Added the possibility to use the internal Wii System Menu font (thanks to giantpune and r-win).
    - Added proper message to install progress bar to show when install is really finished.
    - Added a GUI option for Play count display.
    - Added "Remember Unlock" option in parental control menu to set whether the lock should always be enabled on launch if a password is set.
    - Added Priiloader override on returning to Wii System Menu.
    - Added different hooktype and wiird debugger (Thanks to GeckoOS for the sources).
    - Added NAND emulation to redirect Wii NAND access to SD or USB. Default NandEmu path set to sd:/nand/ (Requires d2x cIOS v7 alpha or later).
    * Partial emulation: Load and save the game saves to the NandEmu path instead of the Wii internal memory.
    The Mii, Wiimote configuration and Wii settings are loaded from the real Wii.
    * Full emulation: Load everything from the NandEmu path instead of the Wii internal memory.
    Attention: if you play on someone else's Wii, you'll need to use your own Wiimote and network might not work.
    - Added a NAND extract feature. You can extract everything or enter a path to a directory or file which to extract.
    - Added a save game extraction menu to extract all save games at once from real NAND to NandEmu path.
    - Added a per game save game extraction to NandEmu path.
    - Added a per game NandEmu, Hooktype, WiirdDebugger setting.
    - Added possibility for network re-init (Wifi-Button in Homebrew Launcher).

    Changes:
    - Using new app_booter for homebrew booting (see WiiXplorer changelog).
    - Reload back to entry IOS when starting homebrew instead of starting it in cIOS.
    - Removed limit of .csv and .txt game list creation.
    - Entered characters for the password field are now hidden.
    - Improved detection of not existing cheat txt files.
    - Forwarder: Centered the background image and corrected the aspect ratio.

    Fixes:
    - Fixed META.XML format.
    - Disabled try to mount of drive when no disc is inserted.
    - Fixed issue with file browser not jumping back to first directory entry on directory change.

      You need to manually update it and change the config files. HERE is a guide to do it correctly.

      i just updated usb loader GX today.. everything works fine but for some reason, my play counts are all at 0. i know it's not a big deal but i was wondering how i can get my old play count back. i know that info is stored, or used to be, on the SD card because i've taken my SD to other people's wiis and saw my playcount, i hope its as easy as moving a file to the proper directory, but i wouldn't know where to start.

      If you did a fresh install then you probably can't.

      Does anybody know if there are known issues with the emu nand. The problem I'm having is that only some of my backups will load if I select emu nand (partial) I think it is since installing darkcorp 1.1 but can't be sure as both were installed within a few hours of each other. I was getting an error message but now just get black screen. I know the the backups in question can load to an emu nand as I have had them working with emu on uloader for a while now but would like to use gx as it looks better and can use fat 32.

      Darkcorps could be a big factor but not 100% sure on that.
      Darkcorps messes with all your ios'... Which can cause a lot of different problems when trying to get thing to run.

      I kind of thought that and had dc 1.0 installed and seemed ok but as we all know tin tin wouldn't play so installed 1.1 and it seems to have gone haywire since then. Good thing is I do nand backup before installing the new dc so may just reinstall nand. I will let you know what happens

      Is your wii boot2? If you did a nand backup and bootmii was installed as a ios then its dangerous to re install the nand.

      There is a guide on here to remove darkcorps if the above applies.

      Yeah it's ok mate bootmii is boot 2 but I might consider removing darkcorp with the installer as there's an uninstall on that. Problem is if I do that tin tin won't work again. Do you have any ideas on how to get that to run without freezing

      Using the instalker isnt the best idea... It will leave ur wii with outdated ios and korean ios, which are useless

      I've just put the old nand back in then updated to gx 2.3 and d2x v7 cios wad pack and am still getting the same results where only some games will load when emu nand selected. Any help would be much appreciated. Ta.

      Well, let's see the result of your restored NAND. Do a SysCheck as described here and post your results to this thread...

      The wiiware and virtual console games loading from emulated nand is targeted for next release.

      For those who asked the question....

      Ok here you go

      Spoiler

      can I just add that the games are being run from a wbfs partition and emu nand is on a fat32 partition both on same hdd all custom paths have been altered correctly as some games i.e tiger woods 12 will load when it is set for game save in partial nand emu. Also all games will load through gx when emu nand is set to off.
      Thanks again.
