I torrented an ISO to see if this works. I unpacked it but it won't unzip (there was a zip in the rar) and I can't just place the zip file in the wbfs folder (even if I did wiiflow wouldn't read it). I was wondering if you or anyone else reading these comments can lend me a hand.
I have WBFSManager 3.0 and when ever I click add to drive the file will not transfer over to the USB side (left side). The USB is in WBFS format and the game is an ISO file. Can some1 help me? Thanks!
So I got everything here, formatted my 4GB SDHC card and put Mario Kart Wii on it. I use USB Loader 1.4 (The one in your other video) and when I put in my SDHC card and run USB Loader 1.4 it keeps giving me the Error: Error: (-1). HELP!!!
when i went into wbfs manager i have to format it BUT when i format it ask warning if u format everything will me gone?? how can i get around that i got a bunch of stuff in my external hardrive
@MultiLelde See, here's the thing. I already bought up games. Would be nice though if I didn't have to use my gamecube which may crap out on me sometime soon here. Then I'll be stuck with a broken Wii that cannot play discs. I can play channels like WiiWare and VC games, just not actual disks. That is why I wanted a way to play gamecube games. Keep everything on one system, rather than swapping out the cables that go from the Wii or GCN to my TV anytime I want to play on the other system.
@Exaskryz Oh, problems like that should be easy to solve, i think nintendo will fix it up for you, like for the many people that had they're wii repaired after black ops messed it up, they all got repaired for free, just call nintendo, and you can find wii's for a cheaper prices than any other major console at pawnshops and gamestop sometimes
@MultiLelde I am not about to ship my Wii off to Nintendo for them to erase my homebrew... Also, a secondary Wii was already purchased after the one I have stopped reading discs. I have gone to college, and my younger brother is keeping the working Wii. Anyway, the odds that a solution to my problem will ever arise are quite slim. There's not enough demand for it, and the Wii mod scene will move on to Wii U.
But, in order to use WBFS manager my HDD needs to be in WBFS format, in which case I can't have the HBC or a usb loader on it. So...how will I open the usb loader?
I formatted my Seagate320Gb external to WBFS format..have 60 games installed by someone else..but when I hook it up to MY own computer, WBFS manager doesnt recognize my hard drive..but its present in My Computer..any suggestions?
My ISO files are the 4GB about so what do I use to compress them and still be able to put them on the SD and play them on the Wii? I know you can I done it before I cant remember now. But ea I just want to know how to compress my ISO game to a smaller size but still be playable?
do i need to have a usb external drive just for my wii? can't i use it for other things, like video and pc files backups? my drive is in NTFS, do i need to format in order to get to WBFS? Thanks ^^
hye dude i did everything right put then on uloader it says to reinsert so i do but then i hit the power button on my usb (ihave WD book estenials usb drive)and the wii disk drive starts flashing blue and nothin happens
hi i have a question when i open wbfs manager and then want to add a game it says
and if i wanna add wii channel i cant click on it and if iclick on browse (for loading a gama onto my usb ) it says it cant read my iso file can you plaese help me with that
i have an issue i loaded a game i did the whole extract thing with different parts and it worked but when i load it to my wii i get this err screen and my wii freezes can you help me with that?
i have a question,i loaded the game onto NeoGamma,changed the region to japan and all,so when i load the game it says "Connetion to WFBS lost" but i formatted it to WFBS
I'm using a seagate freeagent go and it some how stoped working so I plugged it into ny computer and the harddrive started flashing and beeping any help?
yo ive been trying to get my ipod 6G to work as a hard drive for my wii. I got it formatted to FAT32 but wbfs manager says unable to format drive. U know any alternate method i can use to get my ipod to work with my wii? thanks
wen i open WBFS manager its always said : error occurred while loading drive . make sure the drive is not in use or open and that it has formatted to WBFS format , wat shud i do =( ?
@NerdHelpDesk hey can you help me i am woundering if i can use my usb drive to load up all my homebrew channle insted of use my sd card so i can use my sd card as the main drive that hold all the games??
hey can you make a tut for partition a hard drive for wbfs and one for homebrew channel PLEASE IM A NOOB IF YOU CAN DO ONE THAT THAT WOULD BE GREAT!!!!!
whenever i try to load my iso from my folder when i open the folder it doesnt show the iso any where if any body knows how to fix this plz message me how thanks.
@NerdHelpDesk Hey dude. Great videos but I have a problem. I did everything you said and booted up my Resi 4 ISO file onto this program. Hit add to drive. It took about a 5 mins to add it to my drive. A message came up saying something along the lines of "Added to Drive". So everything was fine. Although the game didn't appear on the left (the games on WBFS drive section) even though it said it had added it to the drive.
I found this video extremely helpful as I'm a newb to the wii scene.... I have a question though.
Whenever I play offical game discs, the game fills the entire screen. But when I play games off my microsd chip, on each side of the screen about half an inch is cut off. Is there anyway to fix this? I'd like the game to fill the entire screen the way a real game disc would.
@NerdHelpDesk I am playing the games on a 50 inch Samsung Plasma TV... And it is odd that the games that are on an official disc fill the screen, but isos from a micro sd card won't fill the screen.
Also, I was curious, WBFS shrinks my isos down to about half the size and I wanted to know if video quality is compromised?
@NerdHelpDesk I have it hooked up with AV cables... The original cables that come with the Wii.... I am buying a 500GB hard drive today for games, and I was thinking of getting component cables. I don't see how that could make a difference though. Shouldn't the ISOs be exactly the same as if I stuck the actual disc into the Wii?
@Gwaedhiel i think it might just be the cables, i have a widescreen an just tested it. if you use component cables it formats it correctly. you can get them from gamestop for like 14 bucks
@NerdHelpDesk If it was the cables, wouldn't the official game discs show up the same way the isos do? Regardless, I am still getting some cables today. I am going to Fry's today to buy a harddrive, and I'm going to get some component cables.
@NerdHelpDesk I got the hard drive, and component cables and so far 3 games won't fill the screen.... Harvest Moon Games, and Rune Factory Frontier. Do you have the same issue with these games?
when i play the game on the loader it only plays the how to set up the wii motion plus and when i push return to game it brings me back to the wii channel what should i do to fix this problem
It works with an cd/dvd?
