I am trying to set my computer up so it is always broadcasting my NDS files, instead of having to select it every time.
I know that you can use WMBFront to load multiple files, but it there a way to have it in a continuous loop?
Any info would be great, thanks ;)

I use WMB Server for something like that.
But I'd like to know if I can use a kiosk mode of Wifime, too? I made a bat file which executes the wmb app as long as you close it, but you have to press enter everytime after downloding.

thats the thing, I would like something that just braodcasts over and over, so if i have anyone over or if I myself just want to flip open the ds I could get this stuff anytime ( kinda like a very big virtual flashcart )
I know I could just put it all on my EZFA but then it isnt being fair to my guests ;)

Easy hack, use recursion. broadcast.bat:
Code: |
C:\WiFiMe\wmb.exe -data "Test;TableHockey;Polarium"
broadcast.bat |
Modify the data parameter as necessary. unrequited suggested this method a month ago.

Won't that eventually crash the shell? While they made a lot of improvements in the processing capabilities of the Win2k/WinXP command shell, it's not exactly a robust environment.

You can quite easily make a batch file to loop wmb.exe using a label and a goto statement, but why can't you get WMBFront to do more than three ROMs? The problem is probably because of the buffer limit I have on the files you can select, but putting them in the data directory will mean it won't need to add the full path, so the buffer is less likely to fill up. I have fixed that bug for the next release.
For now put the ROMs in the data directory, browse the directory and select all the .nds files you want to broadcast. Put a tick next to Kiosk Mode click Upload button and it will loop over.

Use goto, which has been in command prompt since at least DOS 6.
Code: |
@echo off
:loop
C:\WiFiMe\wmb.exe -data "Test;TableHockey;Polarium"
goto loop
|
