So I've been recently trying to mod the vWii of my already modded WiiU so i can play the OG wii sports and wii sports resort, but i can´t get the cIOS to install properly, it always marks my download as failed and idfk what to do, i also tried to manually install my cIOS using ModMii but i also don't know where to place the cIOS so that's also a dead end,
also tried offline installing, no luck either, also switched usb ports,
got different versions of dx2 installer and also made sure to install a vWii version of d2x, again, NO LUCK.
also to add on, usb loader gx DOES recognize my games but crashes after loading, i tried switching ios-es to see if i already had any but nothing, idk if that
helps identify the problem but if it does there's that piece of info.

someone PLEASE help me

i am desperate at this point.

yeah, I'm assuming that the ios used as a base can no longer be downloaded from the installer anyway, considering we can now no longer update the wii the official way. modmii will have the wrong ios for use with the vwii. installing them will brick the vwii. it's fixable, but don't do that.

don't confuse the CIOS for the old wii and the CIOS for the vwii mode of the wii U (these are two different things).

PLEASE FOLLOW THIS GUIDE FOR WII U VWII MODE ==> (insert guide site here)

then post a syscheck report, for control, thank you

what usb media are you using?
Im using a 4GB flash drive that has been formatted to fat32, i tried to follow the guide (again) and still nothing, the downloads keep getting failed, now even the vWii version doesnt show up in the downloads, and i have reinstalled d2x about ten times already, i also got a (net_getbyhostname -6) error show up like ten times.
these cIOS just don't wanna download at this point. (I also made sure to delete old WAD files)

did you put cios d2x in your APPS on your SD?

Is your wii U connected to the net when you install the CIOS d2x?

Recommend ==> FAT32 external hard drive for vwii mode with Y-cable.

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
