[...] El equipo quiere que sepáis que la versión 10 será la última actualización durante mucho tiempo, de manera que si tenéis alguna sugerencia sobre que problemas o funcionalidades queréis incorporar os recomiendo que mejor se lo hagáis llegar vía HackMii. [...]

Currently the network transfer code gives up/breaks if you look at it funny. Either allow for retry’s when transfering images or shore up the network code so it does not drop connections all the time.

-Widescreen support
-Adjustable background hue
-Time/date/battery display
-Organizable apps

I think these changes would make the HBC as complete and professional as possible.

Hi,

as mentioned here many times already, I’d really also like to have USB drives accessible for loading additional programs.

And if possible, I’d really enjoy a “css” – like “skinning” customization of the HBC layout, if you could manage that.
I saw that there were a couple requests for changing font size and colors.
Since you can’t fulfill every wish regarding the HBC layout, I think this might be the answer for every single one of these requests….

Thank you for the GREAT work you guys are doing. The Wii alone is alot of fun, but with HBC and all the community efforts it’s one heck of a marvellous machine!!!

You rock!!!!!!!

Yeah, it certainly would be nice for them to post about which features might happen and which will certainly not happen, so that people don’t keep asking for the same things…

Well, I just want to point out two little bugs I found. First of all, when there is a Game Cube memory card in slot b, it shows it as a USB Gecko, yet there are not any features that are inhibited (going on the internet, launching applications, etc.). Secondly, the first time I got queued for an update, the update froze while downloading (not installing) after staying on the update screen for about a minute or so. These were very minor issues I wanted to point out.

Background music. Forget skinning, forget customization, just make/find/commission something to give it a little ambiance.

Hey, I read it all, and I’m not even part of the HBC dev team. It’s something to do when bored.

- Support for multiple languages in the meta.xml format (probably need more complete UTF-8 support to take full advantage of this)
- Standalone DOL version loadable from the Twilight Hack and such (HBC is still useful as a loader even if it isn’t installed as a channel)
