just homebrewed my friend's wii and it turns out you don't need the twilight hack for homebrew channel anymore. it didn't even work on his version 3.4U so I went with this BootMii installer or something which worked fine.

Wow, way to be a jerk. Can't believe anyone would want help from you with that attitude.

If anyone wants to soft mod their Wii, give me or Dave Youell (if he still wants to help) a PM, and we/I will help you out. I'll also help you install some other things that I needed that wasn't in the basic package.

I'd rather people be angry at me for not helping them, than be angry at me because I was part of what caused them to brick their wii and lose all their save files.

And if people who I don't really know are too lazy to google something, do they really deserve help? I mean at least show that you put some effort in, the PMs I got were people saying "i have no idea about anything, can you do it all for me?"

In fairness, it took me 5 evening of searching to find a softmod that worked with 4.0E I tried at least 5 different ways of modding things, messing about with IOS versions and fuck knows what else.

I've got a step by step plan that cane be done in 10 minutes now, and that was built by scratch

Because you have to take a different approach with each version of the firmware, it's a bit harsh going nuts at everyone.

I do agree that people coming back at you for bricking it isn't cool though, I knew the risk when I was doing this.

I am finding some games don't work though, which is annoying

Well no, I take that back. The only one that didn't work was Resort (J), but I gave up because it's coming out in a few days anyways and I'm buying it.

I'm hoping it's just a burning issue, but the following flat out won't play and come up with a 0002 failure:

Punch Out
The Conduit
Madworld
Boom Blox Bash Party

--

I have been overworking my PC trying to produce all of these, so I'm hoping that it's just because there was something up with the burning

--

Oh also I know there is a known issue on Sam And Max Season 1. It won't play any of the episode's at all and just resets the machine, appears to happen with all versions.

The way I used to avoid the 002 error, was by launching the game from a channel with the 002 fix built in. But now, I just fix the error on the ISO itself, before burning. I can run the games just fine now on the Back Up channel.

This video shows how to fix the 002 and has links to the software you need.

Thanks mate

I'll have a proper look into all that later when I'm home

So there's basically 2 programmes that will look into the ISO file and I need to change some of the .dol info and then re-burn?

Seems easy enough

Ok, as this is turning into a thread for all Q and A

With the homebrew Wads

I don't currently have any Roms or loaders

Do i have to run them all off an SD card or could they be run of a DVD with loads of them on there

Also, are there any decent sites for roms and the loaders, or is this more of a torrent thing

I don't get a green screen, I get the blue screen 0002 error

What are you using to burn the discs, have other ones worked?

I'll have to double check, but I know that I've been downloading Pal and NTSC games, maybe all those failures were NTSC versions, I'll have to double check

Right. One program (Wii Scrubber) will let you dissect the ISO to extract the main.dol (where the 002 is), and the second program (Generic Wii Patcher) will open that main.dol and look for and fix the 002 error. You then go back into Wii Scrubber (which you should still have open) and replace that infected main.dol with the new and improved 002 free main.dol. May sound complicated, but it's cake work really.

I make sure to check every ISO I download now, so I don't have to worry about which channel to play it from.

You explained that quite well mate.

Seems simple enough

One app is designed to breakdown the file where I find the dol

The other app fixes the dol

I just replace the Dol using the first app

Does that app then remake the ISO or do I have to burn it in a different way?

I'm sure you already know, but another reminder, don't ever update your Wii with a different region game.

Not really, you just save it and go. Takes like less than a second to save. You then burn it using that original ISO (it doesn't make a new one).

I want to do this

Yeah, I want to get into using a USB drive. I have a spare 250gb one collecting dust. I just don't know where to start, because there's like 432151 ways to do it. (feels like it newayz)

Can't you just use the Gamma launcher for that?

Doing so will brick your Wii. If you play different region games, I'd recommend using brickblocker on the ISO before burning, which will remove those updates and eliminate the chance of it happening. I only download and play NTSC games, so I don't have to worry with it.

By brick, I assume you mean totally fuck it?

Mines not currently connected to the web and I have no aspirations to, does that mean I'm amune to this happening then? Unless a disc has a software update on it (like Mario kart Wii and Zelda?) Then I need to avoid like the plague.

Do any of these new games with the motion plus need updates? I'm just safer sticking to Pal versions aint I?

So if a Wii were to brick, how would one fix that? Is it possible to?

Yep, by brick I mean it turns into a bright white expensive paperweight. I think there might be a way to unbrick it, but that's something I know zero about. (and don't really wanna go down that road)

The only thing I know of involving new games and updates, is that Resort has a problem that if you play a VC/WiiWare game off a SD card, then go to play Resort, it'll make you watch the 3 minute Motion+ video again. 4.1 fixes that problem. I don't play anything off a SD card, so I'm not worrying with the update. I just hope the update isn't on the disc and requires it to play. (I'm actually buying it).

As far as sticking with PAL, I would do it, but only because I/we are pretty novice with this kind of stuff and don't wanna fuck anything up.

Agreed

I think I might actually have already used some NTSC games un-wittingly, I'll just stick with the Pal ones. I'll stick with what I know and avoid what I don't know.

I'm sure Nintendo are thinking about ways to stop this happening. I would imagine alot of new games will require new firmware for things to work. I don't really have an interest in Sports Resort, but I'll be interested to see how it works out. I don't use my SD card for anything about saving stuff, as I don't need it for the back up loader and that's mainly what I use it for,

Thanks for the help today, been enlightening, hopefully this will help anyone else who want to do it and has quesitons

Ok So I downloaded the Genesis Plus Emulator and around 800 games for it.
Now the only way I csn load the emulator is by loading the channels off the SD from the settings.
How do I put the emulator into the homebrew channel?

Success!! (kinda)


Successfully installed the CoverFloader stuff and got my HDD set up. Had to do some things that took awhile for me to figure out how to do, which wasn't on the how to. I think I need a new HDD, because it took 2 hours to copy over 1 game. SO, here is where the kinda part comes in. CoverFloader will boot up just fine, it'll even show me the game I have installed. However, maybe it's the game itself (Cruis'n), I will get into the main menu and hit circuit, and it'll freeze.

I'm trying to test out installing a game to the HDD (it only works with real games), but so far since typing this post, it hasn't moved from 0%. Maybe it froze again. I'm gonna reboot and start over.

Reset it and tried again. So far so good. Wii Sports seems to be installing fine right now. Will post the results.


-fuck it i don't know what to do

It supposedly installed correctly, yet it doesn't show in the game list and the light in my HDD goes out. I have to restart the Wii, and the game is gone. I even tried again using Wii Play and the same shit happened. Only the one game I transferred from the computer (Cruis'n) is there. I don't know what to do. I'm currently burning a copy of Cruis'n to see if it replicates the freezing. I think I'm done messing with this. I'm lucky enough as it is being able to download and play games for free. No need to fuck anything up by adding extras I don't really need. Besides, I like having physical copies of the shit because then I can look on the shelf and know what I have and want to play.

If anyone wants to know how to set up everything, send me a PM or something and give me time to write it out. Maybe you'll have better luck. Afterall, it could just be my shitty ass Black Friday budget USB drive from 4 years ago.

I dunno.

I messed with it again, using a different game. This time, I used Super Paper Mario. Seems to work perfectly. Weird thing is that it took like 1/4 the time to transfer to the USB drive than that other game did. It's like it chooses when it wants to use USB 2.0 or 1.1.Played the disc of Cruis'n, although it doesn't freeze, it's a horrible horrible game. Very choppy and shit. Could be a bad rip. Who knows.

I guess I cannot transfer any retail games over, since it still fucks up, but I'm going to transfer the ISO's that I haven't deleted yet onto it. Probably take overnight to do.

Yeah, I'm just going to give up though. It took overnight just to transfer 2 games over. I need a new hard drive.
