Savegame emulation broken in wiiflow version 4.0.3 #141

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Updated wiiflow from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3
2. Tried to load channel from sd nand
3. Tried to load wii disc game from usb

What is the expected output? What happend instead?
Instead of loading the game or channel, the wiimote turns off and wiiflow gets 
stuck on a black screen (no codedump, wii needs hard reset)

What version of the product are you using? Which d2x cIOS version?
Wiiflow 4.0.3 d2x 8 final 56/57
Channels on sd nand
Disc games on usb

Please provide any additional information below.
I tried to load channels off my nand and realised none would load no matter 
what I tried. I thought at first it was problem with nand or nandflow.
Then I checked normal games which had been working perfectly on 4.0.2, these 
games on usb (wbfs disc games) also would not load and I got same results 
(Blackscreen, wiimote off, hard reset needed)
I turned savegame emulation off and the games on usb will load but only if 
savegame emulation is off... I cannot get any channels on sd nand to load 
though. Hope you can help me.

Hey, you made sure this NAND got the cert.sys? Check that please, if its 
missing then use my extractor which you can find on the downloads page and try 
it again. If it still doesn't work, enable SD logging by opening your 
wiiflow.ini and setting "sd_write_log" to "yes", you can find it in the [DEBUG] 
section. A wiiflow.log will be created on your SD card root, post that here 
then.

Ok further testing completed...

The emunand I had been using with 4.0.2 savegame emulation (Bootmii Wii Nand) 
does have cert.sys but I extracted another using your tool and replacing the 
one I made with Bootmii dump to see if it would make any difference.

First I tried again to load a wii game with savegame emulation enabled.. failed 
as above.
And then after hard reset and reloading wiiflow I tried a channel in 
nandflow... same as above.

I have tried savegame, partial and full setting but all failed.

After this I enabled sd log and loaded wiiflow once again, noticed the covers 
had started to currupt before it codedumped without me being able to even 
attempt to load game/channel... attached is the log which was created at this 
stage, I hope you can help see what I am doing wrong or find something you can 
FIX94.

Thanks a lot

The log didnt help, may retry it to create the log.

I don't know why but wiiflow is code dumping at startup after I deleted the 
cache hoping it would fix the corrupting covers then crash which had started 
happenin after enabling sd log, another log attached.

I'll try to get a log of loading game/channels soon.

I also noticed from the logs I have now,  it lists default data directory 
sd:\wiiflow instead of the directory specified in my wiiflow.ini

Then it may also doesnt use the emu nand you want? Maybe you somewhere have 
another ini? And maybe you didnt enable data_on_usb if you use it from usb?

Ok back after trying a few more things...

I mentioned the log says data directory is sd:\wiiflow but this is other issue 
http://code.google.com/p/open-wiiflow-mod/issues/detail?id=102

It uses the emunand at least in nandflow, I know because in nandflow my 
channels are detected.

I checked and have my .ini in the wiiflow/apps folder...
So I decided to start from new and deleted all wiiflow stuff, unplugged usb 
disc, and loaded wiiflow to create new settings and .ini etc. I am just using 
default locations now, sd:\wiiflow and sd:\wiiflow\nandemu
I get covers, channels show, everything is fine until I try to enable nand 
emulation (tried full) and then got blackscreen etc

data_on_usb is always no, my data is on sd.

Wanted to update you on where I am, so far I just cannot use savegame emu or 
stuff which uses savegame emu like load channel off emunand. If I left savegame 
emulation off I think I will be able to play wii games, problems with wiiflow 
freeze and codedumping is only after I enable the emulation. 
Is it a conflict only for data on sd users I wonder?
I will again try to get things loading again and attempt to get a decent sd log.

More testing...fresh install, default paths on sd \wiiflow etc (data_on_usb=no) 
and once setup used wiiflow to extract fresh nand in nand [nand] flow settings 
(to default sd:\wiiflow\nandemu)
Wiiflow 4.0.3 switches to nand [sd] flow, reads emunand and displays all 
channels but still can not load any channels (blackscreen, crash, hardreset)
I know it still sees savegame data on emunand as checking game settings the 
"flash save" option is displayed for the games I had saves for from 4.0.2 on 
the emunand I used. It is noticably good and seems very stable version until I 
enable nand emulation of any kind in games [usb] (savegame, partial or full) 
but this then breaks it for me.
I know if I leave savegame emulation off I can load wii disc games successfully.
Now I noticed as soon as I enable sd log, wiiflow becomes very unstable, 
codedump starting up afterwards.

Summary:

savegame emulation + partial/full nand emulation not working off SD (4.0.3)
(savegame emulation only but not partial/full nand emulation was working off SD 
previously (4.0.2))

4.0.2/4.0.3 versions blackscreen/freeze when u try to load channels off nand 
[sd]

enabling sd log causes a codedump either before wiiflow loads or shortly 
afterwards.
