A new version of Wii Homebrew Launcher is available. I want to thank Cladil for re-designed the interface.

The innovations are as follows:

The graphics have been re-handled by Cladil
The light blue Wii turns in access to the SD card
Suppresstion the string "Restart SD loader"
The font size was reduced to view the names of chains longer
Adding to display mode RGB 60Hz (beta)
Adding a configuration file to set the display settings manually
Ability to customize the interface
Creating a menu accessible by the START key enabling:
-- Back to the menu Wii
-- Turn off the Wii
-- Restarting the loader

A version using the Wiimote is currently under development. However, a major bug making homebrew useless pushed me to put this version (without wiimote) online. Indeed after the initialization of the Wiimote, using Front-SD becomes unstable. A new version with support of the wiimote will be put online as soon as the problem will be resolved. I do not know any time combine long it will take me (no need, therefore let me ask).

is this an elf loader to load through the tp hack or is a channel that installs itself to launch homebrew?

[voltorben]

an elf loader you load through the tp hack

good progress, I can't wait until the wiimote support is ready. I didn't know there was going to be a major hurdle like that. Good luck with it. Please release the source code though.

You can probably package this into a channel if you really wanted, I know people are packaging VC games and SNES emmulators. I wouldn't want it as a channel though, it works fine from the homebrew channel.

Hey dude...i have a question for you. Doesn't the homebrew channel have that 10 min limit ? or is it that a full version without limits has been released ? I just so wanna try out this homebrew channel.

Thanx a lot for the info

Edit: Nevermind....I just checked out Wiibrew, and its still got that 10 min limit.

[monoufo]

yes, there is no official no time limit version. but there is a hacked version with no time limit. It works perfectly fine. Some think it's disrepectful, but I'm using it anways.

I wouldn't say perfectly fine. Yes it does work without the time limit, but the homebrew channel is limited when compaired to the actual TP hack. So tools that run under TP hack will not run under Homebrew Channel.
