DML - Custom Game Paths

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Have been using the most recent Usb Loader GX and it allows for DML games to be 
in any of the following paths in addition to sd:/games/GAMEID/game.iso:

sd:/games/Some Title [GAMEID]/game.iso (which I'm currently using)
sd:/games/GAMEID_Some_Title/game.iso
sd:/games/whateveryouwant/game.iso

Any chance this could be implemented in this mod as well?  Thanks.

Crashes for me when run with r18.  It's automatically launching with debug 
output, and I can see where it might be having the problem.  It looks like it's 
able to find/list the GC games, but looks like it's also saying they're on 
ntfs:/games, which they're not - they're on sd:/games.  I do have an ntfs 
partition (an external USB drive), but that's only got the wbfs directory with 
Wii games inside.

Try r19.

I try r19 with Luigi's Mansion and it shows up in my list just fine and makes 
the Gamecube sound when I select it but when I go to play it, it resets the 
Wii... I have Wii Sports in the Disc Drive because someone said yo uneeded a 
game in the drive for these things to work... Is that correct? Should I be 
using a Gamecube Disc instead of a Wii disc? Or can this work without a Disc?

Well it loads up now fine, gets all the covers, etc, so sees the games/game 
locations.  When trying to launch any of the GC games though, it code dumps 
after this:

cc load: sd:/usb-loader/covers/cache/xxxxxx.cc
game xxxxxx

stack dump

80a82400 80da70e0 80b86034 80bb88d4
80ab8a4d

(hope that was right)

Thank you!  Tried r20 - detects and loads games from sd:\games just fine now.  
Tested a few and didn't see any problems, everything looks like it's working as 
it should be now.  Thanks, I appreciate it.

Just to be clear, it worked fine loading games from sd:/games/Some Title 
[GAMEID]/game.iso.  I did't try the other formats/paths as that's really all I 
needed.  Thanks again.

hi! sry for posting in this closed issue but i think here it fits best an we 
dont need to start a new one. :)

now to my problem:
some games are not working  if i use a custom path/something else than a 6 
digit id.
some are working fine (eg mario sunshine, luigi) and some aren't (eg f-zero).
then, only the 6 digit id is working. this happens also if i want start the 2nd 
disc of killer 7 (7 digit id: GK7P082)

what happen is always the same: after it starts the drive the wii show me a 
message like "an error occurred. please remove the disc and shutdown the wii. 
read the manual for more information."

the games are working and i tried with other loaders: NeoGamma (r9beta56: finds 
only gamedirectories with 6 digit id) and wiiflow (r418: finds always all but 
cant start always: f-zero with custom path doesn't work, killer 7 disk 2 with 7 
digit id works)

would be nice if you get this working for all games :) and good job so far!
