[wedredwed000]

OK, I Loaded the first file just fine. Then when I try to load the second file such as in the video, I start up homebrew channel, press home button and select "Launch BootMii". Then words appear and begin to flash like in a bad iso but eventually I get a WAD menu. I press A as instructed, then it does nothing and disconnects my controller and Then prevents me from reconnecting it. Could I please get some help?

[Rubenacht]

Does this also work for Wii 4.2 E ?

[thedeftonesnet]

i got an error creating custom iso during the 3rd step should i try installing an older revision?

[thedeftonesnet]

on step 4 you say to make sure its ios249 but there is no ios 249 in the files should i add it from step 2?

[tk0192]

WAD Manager on link 1 is v1.4. In the picture on the video, the manager is v1.5

[LENTOXG]

@tk0192 its jus a picture , any version will work

[tk0192]

before Link 2 it said to format, but so far nothing bad has happened (at 3:32).

When I uninstalled the WAD, it said it was still there to be uninstalled.

[LENTOXG]

[tk0192]

@LENTOXG Alrighty. Thanks for the fast reply! :D

[ZiozoneEmperor]

what's the probabillity of my wii getting "briked"?

[LENTOXG]

@ZiozoneEmperor 5%

[MadcowRodin]

at the second step i get:

[+] Mounted device please wait... OK!

[+] Retreving file list... ERROR! (ret = -1)

What did i do wrong?

I'm stuck now :(

[bigpns4u2day]

@MadcowRodin

did you figure out what to do? im stuck here also

[MadcowRodin]

@bigpns4u2day i figured it out but it took a massive amount of tutorials.

maybe you have the trucha bug still on your wii. (google for a tutorial mede by hermes)

and then it worked.

but still i got problems with the cios installer so i deleted the stub ioses and i got everything by a tutorial of hermes and installed cios 222 and 249 by Waninkoko. Then i did discover that i use wrong dvd's, so i used a hdd, formated it with the WBFS Manager and i now play games with the usb function of NGamma

[MadcowRodin]

@bigpns4u2day Hope it works. ;)

[linktriforcemaster1]

[MatthewFarmer47]

Hey man I like the video and the music is awesome, but I cannot even get past the first link. Like when the video is at 33 seconds mine has different things on it. Like under "apps" it doesn't even have firmware update. I tried it anyway and it just said error when I tried to use the SD card with whatever link 1 gave me.

-thanks

[HawCowr]

[wherbjr35]

Props to LENTOXG, another success story...just played backup of SMG2 using neogamma

[LENTOXG]

@wherbjr35 you r best 2 b playing on usb loader wiv a usb hardrive it is much better n it dont crashes when you play a game

[wherbjr35]

Nevermind, sorry for that.....I made it through steps 1-4, and have now loaded the final step onto SD card...so far so good....probably just a little nervous before, all good now...

[wherbjr35]

I am stuck on install BootMii thru HBC part. I was able to install the HBC and DVDx, per step 1. I began step 2, but when I went 2 install BootMii, it is not an option in HBC. Was BootMii supposed to be installed during step 1, too? During the step 1 install, I was not able to install BootMii b/c only the SD card method was available. The video warns not to do the SD method, and even though I only selected install, it stil said an SD card was needed, so I cancelled that portion.

[tacomeistro]

need help i softmodded my wii that i got a month before it came out. i burn games on dvd-r and it plays but in the middle of the game it says it cant read disk and it does this for every game i burn

[LENTOXG]

@tacomeistro u best start 2 use a usb hardrive for your games and start loading your game on usb loader channel its better , n u neva gt an error

[ravingking]
