Starnight theme for Wiiflow USB Loader by Jiiwah[/center]
WiiFlow is an open source usb loader which features a full 3d box, front-and-back "coverflow" interface. When Hibernatus, Wiiflow's designer, completed version 1.1 he left the project and released the source code. Over the last year it has been resumed by Narolez, who has since retired, and picked up by r-win and Miigotu (who currently lead this project).

For me these "glitches" were consistent and very, very annoying.
I've recently reformatted my hd to FAT32 and have seen all loading problems with the latest version of Wiiflow vanish. In fact, it now works as well for me as R25 and seems to load nearly as fast.
My personal recommendation if you're experiencing these types of odd behavior, and you have a WBFS formatted drive, is to reformat to FAT32 and give it a shot.
Wiiflow Fanart Creator
Our good member richardsito has posted information on a couple great little apps which lets you customize your own fanart and video trailers for Wiiflow! These features are limited to current releases of Wiiflow, so if you're still running good ole r25 you'll need to skip out on them or update. But for everyone else, check out:

I wasn't aware of this website until I saw it in a linkback post to this guide. Check it out: It's a whole site on the latest version of Wiiflow complete with instructions, pictures, and other cool info. And guess what? It's maintained by the guys currently spearheading the Wiiflow project.

Anyone who is updating from an earlier revision:-------------------------------------------Quote:
Due to a lot of changes, also in the configuration files, you might experience problems when you upgrade your current version to this new version. In case you experience unexpected behavior, or a code dump, please try to start from fresh.
Requirements and Downloads
To run Wiiflow you will need:
- Homebrew Channel
- At least one of the following: cIOS 222/223/224/249/250 (222 version of Wiiflow recommended)
- SD Card with at least 100MB free (or a FAT32 partition on your USB HDD)
- FAT32/WBFS/NTFS formatted USB HDD (FAT32 recommended)
Latest Downloads
These can always be found on the Google Source downloads page: Downloads - wiiflow - Project Hosting on Google CodeWiiflow 2.1a2 Downloads - Thanks to Krank for the links
Extract the apps folder directly to the root of your device then follow section A or B below to finish the installation.
Follow Section C if you want to store the application's data on your Wii console (older version).
You can also find some forwarders for Wiiflow on Krank and Cile's FAT32 guide.
For a comprehensive list of features/updates see the Changelog at the bottom of this post.Archived Downloads - Includes 5 forwarders and R25-compatible themes
For this archive section I've brought together forwarder channels from the original package, as well as all 25 original themes (plus 7 more not included in the original download) into one .rar file.
V1.1 R25 Full Download (66.19MB) (mirror)Included Files(Abbreviated):
-WiiflowR25_222/boot.dol
-WiiflowR25_249/boot.dol
-Carbonik Channel Forwarder
-Spayrosam Channel Forwarder
-Starnight Channel Forwarder
-Static Channel Forwarder
-Narolez Nforwarder
-32 themes
-------------------------------------------
Installation
**If you experience any issues, check the Troubleshooting Section below and the Readme Files before asking for help**A. Homebrew Channel
Run Wiiflow_222/223/224/259/250 depending on the IOS you want games to load from by default.
Remember to install Hermes cIOS (rev 4/5) if you want to run Wiiflow_222-224.
Default IOS can also be changed anytime in Settings (see section [6]). All application memory is stored on the SD Card or USB HDD using this method.B. Forwarder Channel
Download the R25 Full pack in the archived section above to get the forwarders.
Choose and install a forwarder through Wad Manager using IOS249 (or any trucha-signed IOS). The
forwarder channel will look for and load Wiiflow from an SD Card or a FAT partition on your USB HDD. This
will consume a small amount of memory on the Wii console and install a channel to the system menu.
Once you have installed the necessary wad file, your folder structure must match the list below.
Forwarder looks for these exact paths (in this order):
* SD:\apps\wiiflow\boot.dol
* SD:\wiiflow\boot.dol
* USB:\apps\wiiflow\boot.dol
* USB:\wiiflow\boot.dol
If the forwarder is constantly rebooting to the system menu, you probably performed this step incorrectly.C. System Channel
Download WiiflowR25 Channel Wads.zip
(If you download this file, click here and tell Baboo77 thanks by clicking the Thanks button!)
Select a WAD and extract to ROOT:\wad\, then install with Wad Manager.
System Channels look similar to Forwarder Channels but contain the application's data within a single WAD file.
Installing one of these means you won't need to place the application's boot.dol file on your SD card or USB HDD.[/CODE]

Manually Downloading and Installing Game CoversClick to Open
Game covers can be downloaded online from any site that supplies them. General sizes are 1024x680
or 512x340. The higher the res. the better the image. They need to be in .PNG format and named with
the appropriate 6-digit id code to match the game they go to. For example, New Super Mario Bros. Wii
PAL edition game code is SMNP01. Thus the cover needs to be named - SMNP01.png
Full Covers
- USB:\wiiflow\boxcovers
- SD:\wiiflow\boxcovers
2d Covers
- USB:\wiiflow\covers
- SD:\wiiflow\covers
Exception: If you connect a harddisk with a FAT- and a WBFS-Partition, WiiFlow
will save its files to the FAT-Partition. To avoid this, you should open the
file SD:\wiiflow\wiiflow.ini and add the entry "data_on_usb=no" in the category
[GENERAL]. WiiFlow will ignore FAT-Partitions then. If wiiflow.ini isn't there,
copy the one that has been created on the HDD.
-------------------------------------------
Autobooting from PriiloaderClick to Open
With NForwarderWiiflow.dol in the root directory of your SD Card, power on your console while holding the
reset button to load into Priiloader. Select Load/Install File. Afterwards, navigate to Settings and make the
following changes: "autoboot=Installed File" , "return to=autoboot"
After rebooting, this will automatically load Wiiflow when you power on the console and reboot to Wiiflow when you exit a
game. To get your system menu back after exiting a game, change "return to=system menu".
-------------------------------------------
Adding Custom Music to WiiflowClick to Open
If you want to have some music in WiiFlow, you can save one or more .ogg/.mp3 audio files inside of SD:\wiiflow\music or USB:\wiiflow\music.
WiiFlow will randomly play one of these files each time you start it. If the file is played to the end of it, it will
start over again. If you want WiiFlow to play another file, you need to do a restart by holding the B-button and pressing Home.
-------------------------------------------
TroubleshootingClick to Open
Q. Something strange is happening / Worked before but doesn't now / Black Screen When Loading Wiiflow / Anything Else...
A. Under certain circumstances the config file can get corrupted. Delete wiiflow.ini from ROOT:\wiiflow\ then reboot and reload the program. This
will generate a new config file and hopefully clear up any issues.
Try The Above First Before Asking For Help!!
Q. I'm getting a black screen when I load a certain game(s), how do fix it?
A. You probably have an out-of-date IOS revision. Go here.
Q. The game loads the wrist-strap white screen, but freezes afterwards. What's wrong?
A. It might be a bad dump. Try downloading a different release.
Q. I'm trying to add music files to Wiiflow, but every time I load it either doesn't play or I get a code dump.
A. Larger music files consume more memory from the application. Try using music files < 3MB in size. And again, make sure they're in .OGG format.
Q. I can't download covers online!
A. Wiiflow defaults to wiitdb.com for its cover-downloading. Check that the site isn't experiencing slowdowns. You can always add them manually.
Q. The forwarders aren't working, but I know I set the path right just like it says at the top of the page.
A. You might have an outdated IOS35. Use NUS Downloader to download the latest IOS35, then install with Wad Manager.
Q. I tried deleting a game in WBFS Manager and now none of my games work.
A. Add your games back to the drive and try deleting your game from Wiiflow next time. Also check out ncWBFSTool which is, imho, a superior manager.

To install any of these over your current revision, replace the boot.dol file in \apps\wiiflow\.
R92
Stupid typos screwing up my release zzzz.
R91
I got sick of it, the setting of paths seemed unfriendly on a fresh install, and
the settings seemed illogical.
It will now boot up no matter what and always create a wiiflow.ini if there isnt
one. No problems booting from all SD, there is nothing to edit. It also boots
faster this way.
*wiiflow will now detect your boot.dol and look in the same folder for
wiiflow.ini, if it is not found there it will not look anywhere else, it will be
created there. its that simple.
*language.ini and titles.ini will be read also from the same folder as wiiflow.
It will not look anywhere else.
*Data directories will be created on the same drive your boot.dol is located in
drive:/wiiflow, to have boot.dol on one drive (say SD) and data folders on
another (USB) set data_on_usb=yes.
THE ONLY TIME you need to modify something is if you want data and dol on
seperate drives.
To make your setup work with this just put your ini's in apps/wiiflow and your
data dirs in drive:/wiiflow
and set the paths in wiiflow.ini. I know this seems stupid to change this but we
need static paths and it was creating a massacre on the updater.
