Also i tried a kingston an a sandisk sd card.

And in the first installer i saw that boot2 was not supported for my wii only ios (did not yet install it), is there really no way to use ios without a gamecube controller ?

help plaese.........;
Format the SD Card to FAT32 (do not use quick format). Since you have HBC installed you no longer need bannerbomb or Hackmii on the SD Card so leave them off. Just trasnfer the SoftmodPack to the SD Card. Then try again.

And for the 100th time YOU NEED A GAMECUBE CONTROLER IF YOU INSTALL BOOTMII AS IOS TO NAVIGATE!

Sorry about the gamecube thing :) couldnt stop myself from asking as the modding scene changes every day.

I already formatted the sd card on fat32 (no quickformat).
Now im doing it again and i will place only the softmadpack like you said.
Again, the same result a freeze after selecting ios35 and pressing A.
Thnx for the help so far but Heeeeeeeeelp.
Edit: i was thinking if its really a problem with the sd card because i dont even direct it to sd as the source simply select ios 35 press A and the it freezes ??
Edit 2 : in the mean time i used 3 different sd cards on 2 different laptop 6 times the same result ??????

Tell me plaese to set things straight i installed hbc succesfull and downgraded my wii to what now for the moment ?? Custom3.5 ?? so i can understand better what im doing.

Who the hell is general failure and why is he reading my disk ????

second, Some .isos that doesn't work with usb loader gx works at neogamma but I wanna launch the game from usb laoder gx and not from neogamma.

third, My SSBB iso. doesn't work anymore, I get a white screen green font error 002 wether usbloader gx or neogamma. I get this error after mario wins over kirby.

After donwloading hack_mii, you should rename the .elf into boot.elf and insert it in your SD. then on your Wii, you should go into data mngment, "channels", then click the SD card tab.

It should say that "no sd card is inserted". Since you shouldn't insert it first. If you're prompted so, then that is the only time you should insert the card and it will quickly prompt you to load boot.elf? and see "bannerbomb" icon on the background just very quick.

I got the homebrew channel then i went into DowngradeIOS35, hit that and then i got error message -116 which means internet i believe, so i re connected to my internet and then tried again but it said : "failed to add title, maybe you have already run this".
I have already run this but got an error so i need to redo it?
How can i bypass the error?

Thanks in advance

I have gone through almost this entire thread to educate myself before diving in. I have a original wiikey installed and has been working fine until recently I got semibricked with a PAL update disc (totally my bad) I have a NTSC wii. First time in 3 years the wrong disc got me. Anyways, I installed the HBC last night everything went smoothly, Everytime I try and run regionfree or anything like that (attempting to downgrade my firmware or reset it to proper region) so I can access the settings to setup wifi then update to 4.0
Is this even possible at this point
All I want to do at this point like I said is get my wifi back up and running which means I need to downgrade my firmware, correct?
Thanks in advance

Larry,

How can I mod my Wii to send it to space? Had to say that after reading all the posts, loved that response. All I want to know is over the course of the topic I have read the SD card going from Fat 16 to Fat 32 formatting. As of today downloading the stuff needed to do an offline Mod which format should I do? And then the contents of the SD file should they be all dragged onto the SD card or just the SD file itself? And if I mess up and install the homebrew channel or enter a worng item by mistake and screw up with the directions is it a problem to start all over again from the top and will it just re-write itself? Thanks and you have to have the patience of Mother Theresa.

decided to take the plunge and update from 4.0 to 4.1

Surprisingly everything still worked after the update, with the exception of Gamecube backups. Just reinstalled CMIOS, and now they play fine too.

What exactly does the ios60patched.wad do? I've yet to reinstall it, and everything is working so far. Is it absolutely necessary to reinstall ios60patched.wad?

Thanks

Hey Larry.

I'm a bit of a wii newb, although i've been reading every post on this forum, and a lot of the heebie jeebie.

I am confused about where to start.

I have Nintendo Wii LU64 with 4.0U firmware, that much is right.

It says "Install LU64 Wii fix here" and I downloaded it and then just didnt know what to do. I read the install but Im confused about what to do.

My nintendo wii is 3 months old and I don't have Hackmii or anything at all on it. I have no HBC, and i dont know what most of the things mean and im trying to avoid killing my wii.

Can you just tell me what to do, like click this and install, click this and install, i have an SD card so i can do that, i'm just waiting to hear back from you as 2 people referenced this guide yet im not sure if i should use it cause of the LU64 fix thinga t the top.. or where that comes into play.

Let me know, thanks! (KEOUGH09@hotmail.com)

Hi every one...new to this modding

I followed the guide and it worked np...but I downloaded a game ice age 3 and the game will play but with limited to no sound.

Could this be a bad burn maybe?

I have the 4.1u and LU36 starting serial

Also what is the homebrew channel for....I launch the game using the newogammer channel

Thanks

Please don't ask game questions in this thread. This is for softmoding and softmodding questions should be asked only.

@shepsawy

I have no idea what could be wrong. if it worked fine after the softmod then I would assume the softmod installed properly. You have some other issue if it started acting funny.

Did you install Bootmii before performing the softmod or after the softmod?

Hi

Thanks for this awesome guide. I'm a newbie and it has all worked for me. My wii was purchsed new 2 weeks ago.

I am now playing games through the USB launcher, however i have an original copy of Grand Slam Tennis. When i try to play this it says it needs to install a software update.

If i install this update fron the disc will it affect the softmods (from this thread) i have done to my wii?

Your help is appreciated

cheers

@uk83

as Larry just said, try not to ask game specific questions.

My guess:

Game updates vary a lot among different games. And I thought usb/disc launchers have automatic update skip.

Best try would remove the update from the iso and try to run, although some games need IOSs with new features/versions.

Google the game and check that.

Hi,

The game is an original game (DVD) and i'm launching through the disc channel.

As updates might effect the softmod thats why i placed it in this forum, as updates can be on any original wii games purchased from the shops.

What i'm trying toi ask is if i run the original game through the standard disc channel, the software update it asks me to apply, will it affect the softmod?

cheers

To know that you need to know what specific updates the game contains. Some games updates IOSs that will not affect softmods, but I guess some can update important IOSs that the softmod need (like ios60).


Again, check which update the game has: either by googling its name or using a app(I believe that there is Wii and PC versions) that dumps the update part of the DVD.

If it updates IOS not patched/modified by the softmod I guess it would be ok, otherwise you would have to re-softmod the wii.

Evening all,

I finally updated my softmodded 3.4 wii with homebrew and cios v9 to 4.1
I ran the ios60 patch fine, this went through no problems.
I have a problem updating my wii to cios v14

when updating i got the following error

install error ret -2011

strange thing is that after this error is said install complete??? I'm guessing the install didnt complete due to the above error.
Any ideas on how to fix this error or has the v14 cios gone through fine?

thanks
