• Fixed connecting to the backup server
• Added setting to allow use of secondary server whenever you like

The Homebrew Browser has been upgraded to v0.3.9c. This corrects the issue with the secondary server not working correctly plus you now can use the secondary server whenever you like by changing the “Use secondary server” setting.

31 October 2010 (v0.3.9b)

• Added secondary CodeMii server
• Added a connection test so HBB doesn’t look frozen if it can’t connect to the server

The Homebrew Browser has been upgraded to v0.3.9b. As you may have noticed the CodeMii server has been down for a few days, so I’ve now added a secondary backup server to the Homebrew Browser in case this happens again, downloads and ratings won’t work on the secondary backup server. Also a connection test has been added so you don’t have to wait for the read error -116 to happen and it will retry 3 times for 3 seconds before trying the backup server.

Download HBB v0.3.9b or run HBB on your Wii to update.

Also the secondary CodeMii server can be reached at http://www2.codemii.com

• Really fixed bug with HBB calculating the wrong free space
• Fixed bug when trying to use other repositories apart from CodeMii
• Added setting to enable/disable HBB from checking for updates

The Homebrew Browser has been upgraded to v0.3.9a. Just a quick update, firstly to fix Repository issues and to *really* fix the free space bug hopefully for real this time . Also just a setting has been added to let you choose whether you want to be alerted of Homebrew Browser updates.

• Fixed bug with HBB calculating the wrong free space
• Fixed bug with USB running HBB when HBB wasn’t installed on SD card
• Added support for HBC Themes (go to Settings -> Repo then select HBC Themes and restart HBB)
• Enabled a setting to use Wiimote like GC controller
• Enabled a setting to disable the character in the menu (if he freaks you out!)
• Updated the HBB updated applications window to allow more space
• Raised timeout for homebrew list
• Compiled with devkitPPC 21, libogc SVN and libfat SVN

The Homebrew Browser has been upgraded to v0.3.9. This version was released earlier to deal with IOS58 USB issues, some users have tested this version out and report their USB device mounts fine now and also for HBC Themes support. To access HBC Themes, you’ll need to go to the settings in HBB in page 3 select Use Other Repositories, choose HBC Themes and reboot HBB.

Apart from that just your standard bug fixes, finally fixed that free space calculation for >4GB devices or so I hope. Two more settings have been added, one allows you to use the Wiimote as a GameCube Controller (i.e. sideways & no IR) and the other to disable that guy who’s watching you in the HBB Menu as per a user request.

• Added timeout for Homebrew List download

The Homebrew Browser has been upgraded to v0.3.8. This version includes a few bug fixes, with the ability to play OGG files. Also you should notice some improvement when HBB starts up and it parses the homebrew list. Another very small improvement too (not listed) is when changing categories it should be a little quicker when all the icons are loaded.

Another thing to mention is that the Homebrew Browser Guide, which has been updated showing things more clearly and it has some common problems answered. It will be included with the HBB download from now on.

• Fixed scrolling list issue
• Added ability to not delete folders and not extract files if they exist
• Added ability to select starting category and sorting method
• Re-added mp3 support (add loop.mp3 and it will play it instead of loop.mod)
• Improved scrolling of the list at start up

The Homebrew Browser has been upgraded to v0.3.6 to mainly fix the scrolling list bug but I was also able to add some more things to it as well like the ability to choose the starting category (other than games) and the starting sort method (other than date). I have re-added mp3 support but it might not work properly as I didn’t have much people to test it out.

Also small things like not deleting folders (e.g. /apps/fceu, /fceu/roms, etc) has been added as well as not extracting files if they exist (e.g. /apps/quake/ID1/pak0.pak).

31 August 2009 (v0.3.5)

• Added repositories functionality
• Redid SD/USB mounting method so it keeps trying to at least mount one of these
• Cleaned up the text being printed a bit

The Homebrew Browser has been upgraded to v0.3.5. The main feature is the ability to choose another repository other than the official CodeMii one. There is only a test one for the time being which is hosted at bravenet.com to show that it can be hosted anywhere. I’m working on explaining how the listing file in HBB works here and hope to have it finialised in the next few days.

• Added a check to make sure Wii Network is initialised and active before downloading applications
