Oh yeah, another thing I forgot to mention. I've ran across another problem with 2 games so far (MK Armageddon & Red Steel). You need to patch the ISO to IOS249 before burning, using this.

I've come to the conclusion that I've created a thread of the year candidate.

AWESOME thread and I
![]() A couple minor questions! Okay so I got my Wii all Homebrew'd up, thanks to the file Dave sent me. First things, can I not delete the files off my SD card? I backed up all my GH songs and ish, so wondering if I need to put them on a separate SD or if I can just plop them back on that one. Secondly, in the readme file it said "Now you're ready to get the latest CIOS (v10) " or something, do I need to do that or is what I have fine? And, most stupidly, I guess now that it's done, is there any other steps I need to take before I can start just playing burned ish on it? Also, probably more of a personal preference: Do you find it's better to grab an external HD to run stuff on, or do you find that simply using DVDs is sufficient? As of right right now I have no idea how many games I intend on illegally playing at my leisure, so I don't know. crossrine |

cIOS rev10 is only needed if you intend to play off a usb drive. If you're sticking to discs, it shouldn't be a problem staying with what Dave gave you (rev 7).

And just research the game before burning it, to avoid making errors and building a pile of coasters.

No, you're ready to burn and start playing.

Probably should've just quoted you and replied, instead of turning it into 4 posts.

Sweet, thanks. Also, doing a bit of reading, I guess using PAL versions of games is bad news bigtime? So I should just stick to NTSC or whatever? And even still, if I use NTSC is there a chance of bricking my console?
I think I'm gonna lean towards getting an external hard drive, in which case I should probably update to rev10 then I guess. I don't know. So much to take in all at once! crossrine |

Yeah that's kind of the feeling I was getting from browsing around a bit. I doubt I'll have any issues getting NTSC ISOs, provided my usual assortment of torrent sites don't drop an EGG on my face.
Also, ily (in case you haven't read your rep sheet yet) crossrine |

When installing, I had to select Network Installation for it to work. |

The hardest thing for me was the waiting for that first game to download for me to test everything out.

Yeah I should probably get on that.
![]() Still debating if I wanna buy a hard drive tho. I probably should. Then I can just buy the Arcade 360 and use the same HDD for that, and save money. Yes/no? I don't know. I wonder what I should download first. HMMMMMMM. crossrine |

I'm not seeing where to choose the "Network Installation" option? Are you still in the WAD Manager thing?

You know what, I may have used the cIOS Installer which was in the package Dave sent out. I don't think I could get the .wad to work for me. In fact, I think it was a .dol I downloaded which I had to rename to boot.dol. You'll see Network Installation here

I'm confusing myself now. I'll need to retrace my steps when I did it.

I just did the SUPER SMART WAY and tried anything and it worked. I just used the IOS249, like when I installed the last batch of WADs, and it worked. Nothing seems broken so far.

OKAY
After confusing myself, I figured out what I actually did. 1. I didn't use the wad from that link I sent. I either couldn't get it to work, or I found it after I already upgraded. 2. I downloaded a .dol file from here. 3. I renamed that rev10 installer to boot.dol, and put it into a folder named cIOS rev10 installer, which was put into the apps folder. SD > apps > cIOS rev10 installer > boot.dol file. 4. Went into the Homebrew, select the cIOS rev10 installer folder, then the boot.dol file. 5. Select Network Installation |

Yeah idk, I tried what you just said now, but I don't have an Apps folder or anything on my SD. No idea. Gonna just go with what I have, I think it will work fine.
![]() I am trying to figure out this DVDX thing, it didn't make a channel or anything on my Wii though, and the Back-Up Reader isn't using it or anything. "Hmmm." crossrine |

Savior,
It depends on how you modded you Wii in the first place, I was getting your error until I went onto my current version which has now worked for 4 different Wii's that I'm aware of. |
