Need some help! I can get games to load, but only if I boot up usb loader gx without my hard drive being plugged in. If it is plugged in when I try to start up usb loader gx, it freezes up. How can I fix this? Also, Can someone tell me how I can get emulators to play from my hard drive instead of SD card? I have some NDS roms I want to play, but they won't fit on sd card
When I click on the home botton after I insert the sd in the wii I don´t have on the list "launch bootmi". I only have "back" "about" "exit to system menu" and "shutdown".
I don't think it worked for me. I put the second folder into my SD card but I couldn't do the MD5summer thing because I have a Mac. I skipped that step and put in the SD card into the Wii click HomeBrew and then clicked HOME and BootMii & the Wii just freezes on a black screen. HELP PLEASE!
@OmerSAmiri Try a different SD card, it is likely that MMM does not support your SD card, make sure the card is 2Gb or less. Also unplug any GC controllers, Mics, gamegpads, etc...
@789nikkita Your Priiloader install is starting up, press reset and go into settings and change the boot to option to System Menu. If you need help send me an email.
when i go to the priiloader n press A,then launch boot.dol,i get the same thing u get n press pluss,but it doesnt give me errors it gives me a message in yelllow tht sais "ES_identify failed,error4294966279,ios36 not patched with ES_DIVerify?using cios(holding b and then pressing+or-)will propably solve this.NOTE you need CIOS for this.
do you wish to continue?
A=yes B=no homelstart=exit
i choose A or B, it crashes like in the vid but as i follow instructions i go back to normal screen HELP
@RGatman On your Wii you do not have the same bug that mine has with it's IOS, but using the cIOS as it suggested should work fine. Go to the main menu and press "B" then "-" or "+".
@RVLhacks um that happened to me to what main menu?? when i press b it crashes (like its supposed to) but when i turn it off, take out the sd turn it on, and i hold reset it just takes me to the (press a to begin) screen like when u turn your wii on, what do i do??
@a2uploader The channel is just a forwarder, it will load whatever is on the SD card. You can update to the latest version from within the USB Loader GX settings.
I redid everything and it worked... I had forgotten to turn on the ignore standby on the settings, but am I supposed to do shutdown to priiloader or no?
@emokidd446 You want to have shutdown to set to "off", that just tells the Wii what to do when you press the power button. I assume you want to power your Wii off but you can set it to what ever best fits your needs.
@richeyfilms You still have the "bootmii" folder from step one on the root of your SD card, simply replace it with the "bootmii" folder from step two.
Thanks this worked perfect i tried every walkthrough yours finally install priiloader and system menu hacks the download was fast thank u im am definitly subing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@KalebsKlipsUploader Hello fellow mac user! Macs can do this also, but not with MD5summer. Open Terminal (in the Utilities folder).

I've had some trouble- after installing the WADS, the screen got really twitchy when I hit back, and I kept getting back to the 'THIS SOFTWARE BLAH BLAH' screen.. and then I press 1 like it says to and it says the installer can't continue because there's no known vulnerable IOS installed on this Wii.. What do I do? D:>
@herbalface You had already installed the Homebrew Channel and BootMii durning Step 1, right? If you already installed those you are fine. The flickering could be caused if your Wii is PAL (Europe, Australia, Middle East.....) If you need further information/help send me an email: rvlhacks [@] gmail [.] com
@500fartface Turn off your Wii and remove the SD card and restart it you should be back to your System Menu. If you need further help send me an email rvlhacks [@] gmail [.] com
@ctienyou Your SD card should be 2Gb or less if you are having issues try to reformat the SD card to FAT32 and ensure that you have all the files from the Step 2 folder on your SD card. If you still need help send me an email rvlhacks [@] gmail [.] com
I don't understand exactly how the mod steps would be different if BootMii is only installed as an IOS install. Can you be specific? I performed the pre-loader install steps but I cannot get the alternate bootmii menu to display.. It jumps straight to the health warning.. I have a newer Wii. I wanted to get the Mplayer-ce working.. Is that possible?
@jmarkwatts The difference is that if you have boot02 BootMii it will start automatically when you turn on your Wii, with BootMii IOS you must start it your self from the Homebrew Channel. To do this you must open HBC and press the home button on your Wii remote then selecte Launch BootMii and it will start. (To make a backup have the Step 3 files on your SD card). Mplayer-CE will work for loading music and movie FILES, however on newer Wiis you can NOT load DVD movies.
hey sorry to bother you but i just have a few questions does downloading this letterbomb plus these other 19 wads brick your wii and if i may ask what are those 19 wads?
@AJRockRed LetterBomb if used correctly has almost no chance of causing damage to your Wii, the 19 WADs are also very unlikely to cause damage to your Wii if they are installed correctly. The majority of the WADs are cIOS that are used for running backups and other homebrew and there are also three channels (USB Loader GX, NeoGamma, and LoadMii). And should something happen that caused damage to your Wii there are many ways to repair it especially if you installe BootMii boot02 and Priiloader.
@brandonadams1234 I assume this is happening when you are finished with Priiloader, right? If so follow the instructions then instead of pressing System Menu choose BootMIi IOS from there you can start the System Menu. If you are still having issues send me an email at rvlhacks [@] gmail [.] com
@DaPokemonFreak your controller will shut off, this is normal. Try recopying the bootmii folder to your SD card. If your Wii is not NTSC (US, Can, Mex) then the BootMii config file must be set to PAL 50/60.
ok.. i need help. followed everything to the letter. both vids so far. after the wii crashes and you restart it while holding the restart buttton down.. my screen goes grey. take out the card and normal boot, same thing.. plz help
@FlyingMinccinos Not exactly, the MIOS is not in a WAD it is just the MIOS patcher that modifies your installed WAD and adds GC backup loader. Install all 19 wads but do not run MIOS Patcher.
@RVLhacks Thanks I have a newer wii so I have no use for GC Backups, Just USB Loading. So recap, Delete the mios wad and GC Backup launcher wad and proceed with steps like normal?
@RVLhacks I am on a Mac, & I was also thrown off by the "._010S236.wad" the UNIX Systems make lol. Just a suggestion I think that you should put in the description that those files don't need to be installed. Just saying :P
@jessica198624 You have to click on the link in the description, it will take you to MegaUpload. Wait 45 seconds and then click regular download (the black button on the right side). The files you need will then download.
@MegaDUDE450 You might be able to recover your photos with a recovery tool (usually free trials don't work) and I believe that eShop lets you re-download games that you already bought. Good Luck.
@ALEXLION100 Trying to load games off SD cards is a pain, I would highly recommend a USB 2.0 hard drive formatted as WBFS. That will compress the ISOs automatically and does not have the 4Gb file limit like fat. Downfall is that hard drive (or partition) only works with the Wii and WBFS Manager, but once set up it runs quickly and is easy to use. DVD-R only work in old Wiis (Pre 2009 usually) and runs slowly if at all.
RVLhacks, dude you rock, thankyou heaps for the fast response. I took a gamble last night and went ahead anyway and everything seemed to work smoothly so all good :) I have one more question.... I downloaded Mariokart last night, file named Mariokart(Compress).iso , but it wont transfer to my formatted FAT32 SDCard. Its a 32gb micro sd in sd adaptor, I got it cheap off ebay and am thinking maybe that is the reason ? Wont burn to DVDR also. Any advice on the best way to install wii games ?
Hey RVLhacks can you help me please :( Only 19 wads are installing and the other 19 are not, where you describe at 4:10. Have tried many times to no avail, what am I doing wrong ?
@ALEXLION100 You are okay, what happened is I made that version of the modpack on a Unix computer so there is a file like usbloadergxforwarder.wad and a system file that my computer made that is not a real wad file titled ._usbloadergxforwarder.wad, If 19 are installing you are okay as they all installed the Wii is just confused by the meta system files my computer makes. Sorry for the confusion, the older version was made on Windows so there were none of these files in it.
@timmy10100 Are you using a WBFS formatted hard drive with USB Loader GX? The default config that I put should work for most games as long as they are from your region (NTSC-U). If you still have issues try a diffrent game and see if that works.
@olizelda 4.1 WAS better for people who have a modchip in their Wiis as they could more easily bypass region locks, for softmodded Wii's 4.3 is better because it supports USB 2.0 while older versions only support 1.1, also softmods can bypass region locks on any version. And you are correct downgrading is one of the most dangerous things you can do. If your Wii came with 4.2 or 4.3 you should NEVER install any thing lower than what it came with because newer Wiis have different hardware.
also there working fine must just be that certain game but are you okay to go online theres one game MK that i want to go online on but will it be okay to go online?
@timmy10100 You can go online with backups of games you legally own, if a game freezes at the Safety Warning there could be a few different issues. Most likely is that an alt DOL needs to be loaded the first time you run the game, this can be done with NeoGamma. If you need help send me an email at rvlhacks [@] gmail [.] com be sure to mention the game that is having issues. Remember: PIRACY IS ILLEGAL. Play Fair.
ayup i have the hard drive and all the softmodded done and burn the games to the hdd using wbfs loader but when im loading the actual game it goes past the warnings abt connect ur saftey strap and then freezes loading the actual game any advice?
@SuperCodyshaw Where does the Wii get stuck booting, and how many times does the blue disc light flash? Make sure you completely remove the SD card and try holding down the reset button to see if Priiloader installed. If you are still having issues send me an email: rvlhacks [@] gmail [.] com
@ xxzg360xx Bluetooth is nit supported in BootMii so you can not use the Wii remote. Use the power and reset buttons on the front of your Wii. If you get a black screen and are using a PAL Wii there is a config setting to change. Also BootMii is really picky about SD cards, about 25% of cards are unsupported (even name brands like SanDisk or Kingston).
@timmy10100 I recommend WBFS as it seems to nearly always work. FAT16/32 also works okay but has a 4GB file limit. NTFS drives are supported to some degree, however it is not quite as reliable. If you download ISOs it does not matter if they are in a multi-part RAR archive (I recommend 7-Zip to decompress). If you have more questions feel free to send an email.
okay one last question yaknw when youve got all your steps done exsept for the gamecube bit ive got the hard drive and iso i put the iso onto the hard drive simply by drop and drag and then plug into wii and load up usb loader find the same i want and click play ? o do i need to do the wbsf thing ?
can i ask say i do all the instalition steps and that can i then burn wii games and play them or put them on a big external hard driv and play them because i really do not want to have to chip my wii
can i ask say i do all the instalition steps and that can i then burn wii games and play them or put them on a big external hard driv and play them because i really do not want to have to chip my wii please could some one email me back at jumbojet50@hotmail.com < its not a fake i made it when i was little and kept it ever since
@blackcraft2007 Make sure you removed your SD card and try a few times to get the timing right. If it still does not work try reinstalling it from MMM.
@kenneth1110001 I use Multi Mod Manager version 13.2, the current version is 13.4. Since we only use the WAD manager and App launcher it is not necessary to use the latest version.
Dude, your so useful, I've been wanting to do this for so long. The live commentary is awesome! It really does help. The only thing I do write the steps down and help people on chat sights like, xat.com Anyways, thanks. I will be using your videos to help me.

@RVLhacks Thanks. DSHacker14 is good, too. But, your better for letter bomb and wii hacks. Maybe you should give a tutorial for how to hack/cheat any game. I mean I know how to but just to let them.
@kevincobain2000 the version of USB Loader GX in my mod pack does not have a pin set. If you forgot your pin delete the config file from te SD card, that will reset all te settings.
@kdizzly101 Have you tried to manually reconnect the Wii Remote? On the SD card slot press the red button at the same time press the corresponding red button in the remote's battery compartment. You can also use a GameCube controller. If you need additional assistance, email me at rvlhacks [at] gmail [dot] com
@Thndrst0rm さん You have a Wii with System Menu 3.4U, the hacks.ini was designed for a 4.3U Wii. I can send you a multi version hacks_hash.ini and Priiloader 0.6 that is compatible with 3.X Wiis. e-mail me at: rvlhacks@gmail.com and I will send you the files as an attachment.
@ab94a さん I show how to make a NAND backup in the next video "Step 3: Clean SD", but if you do not want to watch it all you have to do is copy the files from part 3 in the download to your SD card replacing the files from step 2.

If the folder IS there and it still does not work that likely means your SD card is not compatible with MINI (the IOS replacement that runs bootmii) and you would need to try a different card.

@herbalface You had already installed the Homebrew Channel and BootMii durning Step 1, right? If you already installed those you are fine. The flickering could be caused if your Wii is PAL (Europe, Australia, Middle East.....) If you need further information/help send me an email: rvlhacks [@] gmail [.] com

Should i take a new sd card ?
RealPoki 4 months ago
@RealPoki I would try the Micro SD in the adapter first, but if it does not work I would try a 2 Gb SD card.
RVLhacks 4 months ago
@500fartface Turn off your Wii and remove the SD card and restart it you should be back to your System Menu. If you need further help send me an email rvlhacks [@] gmail [.] com

@ctienyou Your SD card should be 2Gb or less if you are having issues try to reformat the SD card to FAT32 and ensure that you have all the files from the Step 2 folder on your SD card. If you still need help send me an email rvlhacks [@] gmail [.] com

I don't understand exactly how the mod steps would be different if BootMii is only installed as an IOS install. Can you be specific? I performed the pre-loader install steps but I cannot get the alternate bootmii menu to display.. It jumps straight to the health warning.. I have a newer Wii. I wanted to get the Mplayer-ce working.. Is that possible?
jmarkwatts 4 months ago
@jmarkwatts The difference is that if you have boot02 BootMii it will start automatically when you turn on your Wii, with BootMii IOS you must start it your self from the Homebrew Channel. To do this you must open HBC and press the home button on your Wii remote then selecte Launch BootMii and it will start. (To make a backup have the Step 3 files on your SD card). Mplayer-CE will work for loading music and movie FILES, however on newer Wiis you can NOT load DVD movies.

hey sorry to bother you but i just have a few questions does downloading this letterbomb plus these other 19 wads brick your wii and if i may ask what are those 19 wads?
AJRockRed 4 months ago
@AJRockRed LetterBomb if used correctly has almost no chance of causing damage to your Wii, the 19 WADs are also very unlikely to cause damage to your Wii if they are installed correctly. The majority of the WADs are cIOS that are used for running backups and other homebrew and there are also three channels (USB Loader GX, NeoGamma, and LoadMii). And should something happen that caused damage to your Wii there are many ways to repair it especially if you installe BootMii boot02 and Priiloader.
RVLhacks 4 months ago
@AJRockRed If you want a complete list of what the WADs install send me a message or email and I will list what they each install.

brandonadams1234 5 months ago
@brandonadams1234 I assume this is happening when you are finished with Priiloader, right? If so follow the instructions then instead of pressing System Menu choose BootMIi IOS from there you can start the System Menu. If you are still having issues send me an email at rvlhacks [@] gmail [.] com

@DaPokemonFreak your controller will shut off, this is normal. Try recopying the bootmii folder to your SD card. If your Wii is not NTSC (US, Can, Mex) then the BootMii config file must be set to PAL 50/60.

@RVLhacks ohh thanks
FlyingMinccinos 5 months ago
@FlyingMinccinos Not exactly, the MIOS is not in a WAD it is just the MIOS patcher that modifies your installed WAD and adds GC backup loader. Install all 19 wads but do not run MIOS Patcher.

Good tutorial. But is patching the MIOS Optional, And Is installing GC Back up laucher optional?

@FlyingMinccinos They are both optional. I should add the 19 WAD info as an annotation.....

@RVLhacks Thanks I have a newer wii so I have no use for GC Backups, Just USB Loading. So recap, Delete the mios wad and GC Backup launcher wad and proceed with steps like normal?

MegaDUDE450 5 months ago
@ALEXLION100 Trying to load games off SD cards is a pain, I would highly recommend a USB 2.0 hard drive formatted as WBFS. That will compress the ISOs automatically and does not have the 4Gb file limit like fat. Downfall is that hard drive (or partition) only works with the Wii and WBFS Manager, but once set up it runs quickly and is easy to use. DVD-R only work in old Wiis (Pre 2009 usually) and runs slowly if at all.
RVLhacks 5 months ago
RVLhacks, dude you rock, thankyou heaps for the fast response. I took a gamble last night and went ahead anyway and everything seemed to work smoothly so all good :) I have one more question.... I downloaded Mariokart last night, file named Mariokart(Compress).iso , but it wont transfer to my formatted FAT32 SDCard. Its a 32gb micro sd in sd adaptor, I got it cheap off ebay and am thinking maybe that is the reason ? Wont burn to DVDR also. Any advice on the best way to install wii games ?

RVLhacks 5 months ago
Hey RVLhacks can you help me please :( Only 19 wads are installing and the other 19 are not, where you describe at 4:10. Have tried many times to no avail, what am I doing wrong ?
ALEXLION100 5 months ago
@ALEXLION100 You are okay, what happened is I made that version of the modpack on a Unix computer so there is a file like usbloadergxforwarder.wad and a system file that my computer made that is not a real wad file titled ._usbloadergxforwarder.wad, If 19 are installing you are okay as they all installed the Wii is just confused by the meta system files my computer makes. Sorry for the confusion, the older version was made on Windows so there were none of these files in it.

timmy10100 5 months ago
@timmy10100 Are you using a WBFS formatted hard drive with USB Loader GX? The default config that I put should work for most games as long as they are from your region (NTSC-U). If you still have issues try a diffrent game and see if that works.

one last question how do I downgrade to 4.1? or should i even do that, cause i hear 4.1 is better to use homebrew with? Is their a brick risk?
olizelda 5 months ago
@olizelda 4.1 WAS better for people who have a modchip in their Wiis as they could more easily bypass region locks, for softmodded Wii's 4.3 is better because it supports USB 2.0 while older versions only support 1.1, also softmods can bypass region locks on any version. And you are correct downgrading is one of the most dangerous things you can do. If your Wii came with 4.2 or 4.3 you should NEVER install any thing lower than what it came with because newer Wiis have different hardware.
RVLhacks 5 months ago
also there working fine must just be that certain game but are you okay to go online theres one game MK that i want to go online on but will it be okay to go online?
timmy10100 5 months ago
@timmy10100 You can go online with backups of games you legally own, if a game freezes at the Safety Warning there could be a few different issues. Most likely is that an alt DOL needs to be loaded the first time you run the game, this can be done with NeoGamma. If you need help send me an email at rvlhacks [@] gmail [.] com be sure to mention the game that is having issues. Remember: PIRACY IS ILLEGAL. Play Fair.

RVLhacks 5 months ago
@ xxzg360xx Bluetooth is nit supported in BootMii so you can not use the Wii remote. Use the power and reset buttons on the front of your Wii. If you get a black screen and are using a PAL Wii there is a config setting to change. Also BootMii is really picky about SD cards, about 25% of cards are unsupported (even name brands like SanDisk or Kingston).
RVLhacks 5 months ago
@timmy10100 I recommend WBFS as it seems to nearly always work. FAT16/32 also works okay but has a 4GB file limit. NTFS drives are supported to some degree, however it is not quite as reliable. If you download ISOs it does not matter if they are in a multi-part RAR archive (I recommend 7-Zip to decompress). If you have more questions feel free to send an email.
