Re: Can't Download through Homebrew Browser

It downloads fine, and then extracts fine, but then it says something about not finding a boot.elf or something. Help?
Same here, at some point I will probably manually copy it from my pc.

Same here. It will run just fine if you extract it manually. Though it's using the ELF format so the forwarder channel won't work.

Why did it change to ELF?

Report the HBB problems to the HBB author, which would be teknecal, who lurks at the wiibrew.org forums.

I switched to elf because its way easier to work with. dol files are just binaries in another container format, only used by Nintendo. All the toolchain utilities use the elf standard.

If you updated ScummVM, and now you have boot.dol and boot.elf, just remove the older boot.dol. For the forwarder: check its thread on this forum.
