You are on 4.2, the E stands for European, it doesn't mean its a newer versionruimoura said:I'm just asking because the title says, clearly, "Modify any Wii 4.2 & below" ... mine is not 4.2, is 4.2E. Don't take me wrong, i'm just trying to clarify if it really is for all 4.2 ...
Anyway, thanks for your answer.
we didnt release our own, check the mediafire link, its the exact same one.xflak40 said:@ longtom1
that's what the complete soft mod guide is for, lol
da_letter_a wrote one for 4.1 and 4.2 all regions, then the complete softmod guide released theirs which is for 4.X all regions. Other than those two sources, I don't think a universal hacks.ini can be found elsewhere... so yea, i guess if it were on wiibrew we would have slightly less newbs asking the same Qs
just region free loading wii games from the disc channel using a modchip or cIOSCorp.longtom1 said:why don't they just make a universal hacks.ini for download from wiibrew for all regions and firmwares as it would stop all noobs asking for different versions of the hacks.ini
cuz crediar will delete it, ive tried before
QUOTE(tommitek @ Nov 24 2009, 11:18 AM) again, can i ask. what are the benefits of having 4.2 over 4.1?
do i need 4.2 to play some of the newer games or something?
if there is no benefit to it then perhaps its best if i go back to 4.1 so that preloader can enable region free wii games and region free channels
is there no way i can use preloader .29 on a 4.2 machine, thus enabling the hacks for region free i am after? or am i just starting to mash things up now?
DOH!xflak40 said:your wii froze when accessing the sd card menu because you still had bannerbomb saved on your sd card
its all gravy guyxflak40 said:Ohhhh, I could've sworn I checked... my bad
But Da_Letter_A's thread says its for 4.1 and 4.2 all regions, and the complete softmod guide says its for 4.X systems of any region (I assumed this also included 4.0)
So does this hacks.ini file work on 4.0/4.1/4.2 or just 4.1/4.2 (doesn't really affect me as I'm on 4.2 anyways, I'm just curious)
Lastly, xzxero it sounds as if there are many people who are not getting an autoreply email from you to get the required files. I personally don't need the files, but I am curious if this has been resolved.
Is Priiloader recommended over 0.30? If so, do I install it over 0.30 like with 0.29 or would I have uninstall both version first?xflak40 said:either install priiloader, or preloader 0.29 JODI (it's not installing because you don't have a patched system menu IOS, which is IOS60 on 4.1... Preloader 0.29 JODI still patches IOS60 on the fly, and priiloader doesn't require the system menu IOS to be patched) If you desperately want preloader 0.30 then install priiloader 0.29 JODI, then update it afterwards using preloader 0.30
preloader .30 and priiloader will overwrite a previous preloader .29 installationtheclear said:hi, i wanna update to 4.2 on my pal Wii, i just want to know something before i screw up again,... """ Updating your Wii
Run WAD Manager 1.5 from The Homebrew Channel.
When it opens choose IOS36. (it is probably already set to that)
Press A to leave NAND emulator disabled.
Press A to open from SD slot.
Scroll down the list to find & install:
*Really important stuff here! Do not skip or alter steps in any way!*
IOS70-64-v6687.wad
& System Menu-NUS-v481.wad [NTSC-J = v480; PAL = v482]
Then proceed to install the remaining 25 IOS files & Shopping Channel-NUS-v18.wad
*End.*
By the END im supposed TO TURN OFF THE WII and take the SD card and put the Modify 4.2 files or just TAKE THE SD card ,erase , put the (MODIFY 4.2) files AND CONTINUE WITH THE MODIFY 4.2 ???????? i want to install USB loader but seems that i need IOS 222, 223, 250 which i DON'T have installed on my 3.4E. Thanxxx for ur answer
well it says, advance to the modify 4.2 section.
in the modify 4.2 section it tells you to run bannerbomb so you would have to turn off your wii.

Too bad. You're gonna be missing out.DarkBahamut7 said:I have decided against moding my Wii because It's the only one I have and even though the chances are very slim,
I'm just afraid that I may someday run into a brick. So, I'm just going to wait till I get another Wii some day.
Thank you all once again for your help, the tutorials are great and easy to follow.
