pembo has updated BootMii Configuration Editor to v2.0
Code:
02 July 2009 - v2.0
- Settings Dialog to change editor settings. This can be accessed by pressing the 'HOME' button.
The settings are persisted to the langauges file, so if you change the language/skin, whenever you
load BootMii Configuration Editor, your selected options will be the default
- Internationalisation Supported (Currently English & Spanish Langauges available)
Further langauges can be added by editing the bce_messages.xml file as follows
1. Add a new language/code to the available langauges section near the top of the file
(e.g. to add french add the following line:
<language description="Francais" code="fr" />
to the available section, e.g.:
<available>
<language description="English" code="en" />
<language description="Espanol" code="es" />
<language description="Francais" code="fr" />
</available>
2. For every <entry, add in the french translation using an attribute named the same as the
value specified in the code for the langauge (e.g. fr) for example
<entry code="mm1" en="Video:" es="Modo de Video:" fr="Mode visuel:"/>
Please be careful if you do edit the XML file. A corrupt/non well-formed XML file will result in
a Crash of the Wii and will dump the stack to the screen. Ensure you take a backup of the original
before attempting to make any custom changes.
Currently you can only use characters in the standard ASCII character set, e.g.
[0-9] [a-z] [A-Z]
Some puncation characters may also cause issue. It is recommended that you do not use characters
with any accents/umlauts/etc as this will cause an issue.
If you do create a translation for a new language, please drop by my home page (www.pembo.co.uk) and
let me know. I'll then include it in the next release!
- Skins/Colour Change Available. The application can now be presented in a number of look & feels.
Initially the following skins are available:
* Windows - Windows Installer/DOS like look/feel with a blue background and grey windows
* Console - Black background, white text with other colour text to highlight options/selections
* Inverse Console - White background, black text.
Custom Skins can be added by editing the bce_messages.xml file as follows. Find the <skins element
and within this, select and duplicate a skindetail element,e.g.

maintextcolor="0" maintextcolor2="10" maintitlecolor="11"
maintitlelinecolor="0" mainselectedIndicatorcolor="11"

- Online New Version Checking. When the Editor is loaded, it performs a check to see if the version
running is the latest available version. If a newer version is available, then a message is shown
for a few seconds during startup to indicate this.
This online checking can be disabled if you do not wish BootMii Configuration Editor to check for a
new version or do not have the wii networked.
If you wish to disable this check, amend the check attribute in the following line:
<update check="1" url="http://www.dpembo.ukfsn.org/BCE/release/bce_update.ver" />
check="1" means the online checking is enabled
check="0" means that the online checking will be disabled.
Please be careful if you do edit the XML file. A corrupt/non well-formed XML file will result in
a Crash of the Wii and will dump the stack to the screen. Ensure you take a backup of the original
before attempting to make any custom changes.
