hakchi2 CE v1.2.3


This is v1.2.3 of hakchi2 CE. This is a maintenance release to fix bugs and regressions. As always, if you encounter any bugs, please feel free to open an issue on Github and we'll try to address it as we can.

DISCLAIMER


hakchi2 CE by @TeamShinkansen and hakchi scripts from @madmonkey1907 have always been experimental software: USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Additions


  • new user-friendly dialog when waiting for the NES/SNES Mini to reboot
  • new message of the day dialog that prompts important information that can be updated anytime (only show once per message, no nagging)
  • new technical information dialog accessible through Help > Technical information
  • new upload dialog with speed, estimated time remaining and filename display
  • split upload and export tasks in smaller sub-tasks (smoother progress and generally safer approach)
  • updated hakchi scripts
    • major revision
    • improvements for network mode compatibility
    • built-in recovery functions (faster installs)
  • add clovershell fallback options for compatibility reasons
  • safer dump/flash advanced operations
  • smarter exception/errors dialogs (might help debugging). most information that was previously only available in debug build should be available in release build (through the technical information dialog and when encountering errors)
  • reinstated dump original kernel (legacy) in Kernel > Advanced menu. this is only useful to go back to previous versions, but it has been restored for backwards compatibility
  • network mode detection should be a bit faster with this release

Bugfixes


  • fixed missing icon (and C8 on mini) when using non-standard names for games (i.e. CLV-Z-DOOM_HAKCHI)
  • fixed update failing (write error) when clicking yes on update prompt
  • increased timeouts on stats reading from the mini when calculating free/used space (MemoryStats)
  • fixed double log display on Memboot custom kernel
  • improved memboot (kernel operations, updates, etc.) process
  • fixed improper resizing of folder images (was forcing 204x204 even on snes games collections), now 228x204 for snes games collections
  • reorder main update tasks to avoid race conditions that sometimes made title bar to display update required when it was not the case (might fix other issues as well)
  • fixed small bug in new custom backgrounds hmod
  • fixed external saves detection when using custom backgrounds hmod
  • more error detection and display
  • hopefully less issues with autoupdater as it won't cause elevation anymore. if you have issues with it, either reinstall from scratch, or use portable mode, this should work better. also allows dismissing the dialog for a week when not wanting to update right away
