Use Configurable USB Loader instead. Way cleaner and better.

Code:
# change the inode titles of all discs of all wbfs drives
wwt settitle -A +=%T --wbfs --test

# change the inode and ISO titlesall of discs of all wbfs drives
wwt settitle -A +=%T --wbfs --test

# change titles of ISO files in the given directory
wit settitle source_dir +=%T --test

# remove --test to leave testmode
# WINDOWS: It is easer to say -E$ and use $T instead of %T

The names are from WiiTDB.

There's no need to switch your USB Loader, because it is teh best >D Anyway, click any game then when the "disc channel" pops up (this is where there's a disc spinning) you click on top of the game's title then you can change it from there. Yeah, it's pretty stupid how Wii Sports is named Sports Pack Revolution -.-

Alternatively, you can open up WBFS manager then load up your hdd, then right-click a game and press rename.

Hope I helped ^^

thanks i'll try that disc rename method. i run fat32 hd so wbfs manager probably doesnt apply unfortunately. someone should make a little prog that takes titles.txt and renames games correctly!

i dont have a wbfs partition so i cant use wbfs manager.

i tried the renaming on the disc in game, but after i type in the name i have no way of "entering" so i click ok and it reverts to normal.

You can try Wii Game manager or Wii Backup manager
Both are WBFS managers with FAT/NTFS support

update your WiiTDB.zip

Correct. Just enable WiiTDB tiles options and it will display all the correct names.

It even displays them in the correct formatting without issues.

Correction: WiiTDB just updates the database that you see when you press the "B" button to see the game info. The game info is basically what you would see if you were to turn over a regular retail game.

Did anyone figure this out please? I renamed everything manually (Wii and Gamecube - 467 titles) from within USBloader GX and they all got reset :( I then renamed them all again in Wii Backup manager and - same - they got reset somehow. It's driving me insane. lol. Is there not an xml or text file we can edit manually or a way to force it to keep the altered titles?
