Make path to wiitdb.xml configurable #327

Closed eku closed 1 year ago

eku commented 1 year ago

Various homebrews use the GamesTDB's wiitdb.xml, each a copy.

apps/SaveGame_Manager_GX/wiitdb.xml
apps/usbloader_gx/wiitdb.xml
wiiflow/settings/wiitdb.xml

Therefore, it would be nice if each homebrew could make the path to the file configurable so that only one file exists. WFL could make a start. It is sufficient to read the path from apps/wiiflow/wiiflow_lite.ini. You would have to edit the file for lack of GUI support, but that would be fine.

nice suggestion. shouldn't be hard to add. and i will. but honestly it isn't a very big file and with today's large hard drives and sd cards you really shouldn't have to worry about the free space. 29.6mb x 3 = 90mb (roughly) of a 4gb+ SD card. but it does keep you from having to update/download it for every app. but ill add it to the paths config menu.

but ill add it to the paths config menu.

Does it mean that themes have to be adapted? Who's gonna to make this?

Fledge68 commented 1 year ago

I'll do it. with my recent theme changing commits it makes it easy to add new options to wiiflow without themes having to be modified,
