Hi, this is my first time posting on these forums and I am having trouble loading back ups with Soft Chip through the Homebrew Channel. When it first started up it showed some error stating that I didn't have an IOS249 present, so I selected to run the program with IOS236 and it loaded with no problem. After that I tried to load my backup disk and got this error: exception error: Ioct1 error (DI_ReadID).

From what I've read, I think my Wii should be able to play backups from dvd -rs, I typed my serial number(It starts with LU66) into that Wii drive site and it says: There is a 100% chance the chipset is Combined GC2-D3 with no drive chip. To my understanding, the Wii hasn't been sent in for repairs (it's my siblings) and was purchased several years back.

I've enabled the trucha bug> followed the Wanin and Hermes' cIOS guide and placed those files on the sd root dir (along with cMIOS-v4 Wiigator) and installed them through MMM Wad Manager>then installed Soft Chip


I was wondering if I was missing something? Do I need to do a custom install of the cIOS 249 to enable Soft Chip to work correctly? Any help would be appreciated

Skip the slot 250 stuff for now, NeoGamma is not using that anyways. At all times, there's only 1 IOS or cIOS running, all others don't matter then.

I also recommend to use the latest NeoGamma, at least for testing until it works. It finally has proper read error codes...

Read the mini FAQ, and just skip the cMIOS and gamecube parts.

Thanks for the quick response, I've been trying to get my SoftMod up and running for the past few days now. I'll try these solutions out and let you guys know the results.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme

    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.

    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
