This is just a small Front SD ELF loader with a menu, written by Sven Peter, svpe #wiidev@efnet/blitzed, svpe@gmx.net.

There are probably still some bugs so don't blame me if something goes wrong.

Usage

Create an "elf" directory (all letters in lower-case, don't include quotes) on your SD card and put all your ELF files in there. Load the tp-hack-loader.elf with the twilight hack or the trucha-disc-loader.dol with a trucha signed disc.

If you want to compile it yourself you just need to type 'make' in the root directory. Precompiled elf and dol binaries are included.

The miniloader/ is just a quick hack to make this work with trucha discs because the apploader i used didn't seem to support a non-standard entry point. The real loader with the front SD code is in the loader/ directory.

When using the homebrew channel you might need to use the trucha-disc-loader.dol or build the miniloader/miniloader.elf file yourself.

/!\ Wiimote support with wiiuse being pretty unstable, this version is also very unstable. I just created it for those who have no GameCube pad and can't launch different elf without renaming it in 'boot.elf'.

A way to make this work :

• when asked to press 1&2, do it slowly, wait 5 second, re-do it, wait 5 seconds... until the leds switch on
• wait for the sync
• when asked to press A, wait about 10 seconds and then press A
• use up and down to choose the elf file
• wait about 10 seconds, then press A

Mirror of download.

/!\ I have only tested it on few elf files, and with the TP hack.

Have fun !!!

(Also, alternatively when prompted to press 1&2, you may press the red button on the Wii [next to the front SD slot] and on the Wiimote [underneath the battery cover]. Koziasty.)
