Hacking Wiiware - fine from NAND, black screen/reset from Emunand

snoofly · Dec 9, 2016

Hi community people!

Sorry for the long wall of text but I'm trying to be as clear as possible.

OK, first up, I have tried researching this issue I'm having for hours and tried various combinations etc but to no avail so I'm reaching out for any clear assistance.

Problem I have is running Wiiware channels through Wiiflow installed to my Wiiflow created emunand. This is in vWii mode on my Wiiu.
They simply go immediately to a black screen after a few seconds then either dump me back to Wiiflow or the vWii system menu. I seems a common issue but nothing I've found works for me.
The same WADs I install to the system NAND work fine (but of course space is at a premium so I'm trying to locate them elsewhere).

The steps I have done and tested are as follows:

Wiiflow - extract nand to both USB and SD (testing both alternatives just in case)
Use showmiiwads to first region change to PAL and install to both the nand backups on the PC.
Connect up USB and SD
Wiiflow - reload cache, everything shows as expected.
Then trying to run the game gives me the black screen.

I have tried combinations of Video forcing, Cios 249-251, trying the USB partition and the SD partition. Everytime on a reload cache, everything looks fine depending on the partition used but when trying to run the game get the black screen and return to menu. If I set partition on Wiiflow to NAND, then these work OK as expected but I'm trying to run them off SD or USB emunand.

I've even installed the sig patch for IOS80 thinking it may have been some signing problem.

Included also a syscheck if thats any help.
Credits on Wiiflow Mastermod 4.2.3-r1054 says D2X IOS251 [58] v10.0

I'm sure it's something quite obvious I'm missing but I can't for life of me work it out. I'm not too good with the cIOS stuff so maybe its that but everything else works fine.

Any help greatly appreciated!

BTW - I've come with a temporary workaround for now.
Change region to PAL for all wads (otherwise they give a cannot be used err msg), copy wads to an SD, setup a YAWMM forwarder channel, and install the wads to sysnand with YAWMM as and when wanted.
Not the best but it works. Save files remain on sysnand I think on deleting the channel so that's OK.
Would still value any thoughts on the black screen issue though.

I tried to be clear but seems like I confused with detail.

Basically, black screen when loading Wiiware/wad titles under VWII Wiiflow emulated NAND, whatever cIOS/video etc options I setup. Everything loads fine off the system menu when installed direct to vWii sysnand.

Nothing to do with WiiU stuff/rednand etc. I'm good with all that.
