Does anyone know to how to create custom xml., cartdisc.png or screenshot.pngs? I want to add descriptions, screenshots and disc images to my movies that I have on wiiflow using mplayerce but I can't figure out how to do so.
Haven't touched my Wii in ages. My Dad has been having trouble with his 300GB Western Digital HDD (Model WDBAAA3200ABK-00) so I bought him a much larger, newer drive because I thought I read that it was compatible. The new one is a 2TB Western Digital My Passport (Model WDBS4B0020BBL-0B). It can't be mounted by MPlayer CE or Configurable USB Loader. I used the same formatting settings despite people saying NTFS wouldn't work because it worked fine with the 300GB drive. I just tried partitioning a FAT32 partition onto the 2TB drive but that one won't mount either.
tl;dr Anyone have luck using this portable HDD with Wii homebrew? Should I take a crack at ModMii to update my Dad's Wii or is it just an incompatible drive?
(Also the old drive works fine. My dad either had a bad cable or his Wii ports were too dirty. I've already spent money on this and want to see if I can get it to work. Plus 300GB isn't much storage anymore.)
I decided to try my own HDD first since I rarely use it but when trying to convert to MBR Easeus just says the operation "failed to complete" and now the entire drive is Unallocated and can't even be formatted.
I'm going to start by saying this worked and thanks for helping me finally get this fixed. I can't guarantee the rest of this isn't going to be pointless.What maker and size drive is it?
Even though it is showing as unallocated is it showing as MBR now? If so the next step is to format it to FAT32 with 32k clusters.
If that is not working and it is a Western Digital HDD go through my last signature link, find the download and use the WD Quick Drive Format software to convert the drive.
I'm going to start by saying this worked and thanks for helping me finally get this fixed. I can't guarantee the rest of this isn't going to be pointless.
Sorry for the delayed response. The drive is a 1TB WD Passport 25E1. A lot happened since posting and I just gave up for a few days. EaseUS Partition Master somehow murdered my drive when I tried the GPT to MBR conversion. Couldn't see it in Windows or diskpart, Easeus could hardly touch it, MiniDisk saw only "Bad Disk," testdisk saw countless bad blocks and Disk Management only produced "cyclic redundancy" errors. EaseUS Data Recovery Wizard found 500GB worth of files which is more than I started with but whatever. My only options were "Surface Test" and "Wipe Data." Surface Test showed 440 bad sectors out of 1953458176. After using Wipe Data, EaseUS was able to get 95% through formatting the drive before failing (instead of failing instantly).
Then I gave up. Then I got a sinus infection.
Then I read your post and the drive "works" again. No errors. No "Bad Disk." No files but I'll live.
tl;dr Thank you, @ca032769
Hello, gbatemp.
If anyone could provide any guidance I would appreciate it. I am having some trouble getting the .nkit conversion program to do much of anything for me. The program runs into an error as soon as I hit "process." Here's the first screen:.
Hello, i am having problems with USBloader gx, the game (the game in question being very light, not even having 1gb) wont load and when i try to load him, the screen turns black and the only way to leave that screen is to pull off the power chord. I too followed Michael MJD's tutorial, did everything step by step, but i got stuck here.
Now, i know there's loads of threads about this same exact issue, but i couldnt really find the proper fix for my problem.
I'm using a usb stick that reads sd/micro sd cards, and im using it along with a 4gb SD card. I dont own and will not own an external HDD, they're expensive as hell. If that's the root of the problem(to which i dont think it is), please tell me what can i do in this case, thank you.

In your first screen, change "recover to iso" to "convert to iso" and try againHello, gbatemp.
If anyone could provide any guidance I would appreciate it. I am having some trouble getting the .nkit conversion program to do much of anything for me. The program runs into an error as soon as I hit "process." Here's the first screen:
Looks good, right? Got the file I want to convert and am using the "Fully Loaded" Nkit setup with all dat and supporting files in place. Then this happens:
It's tricky to understand what I need to correct when all it says is "Error" and nothing else. No information in log or anywhere else in the program to tell me what is the problem. So then I took the same .nkit.gcz file (no game I attempted worked and the shown title is simply being used as an example since it's common) and dragged it on to the "RecoverToISO.exe" file. I got the same results, but at least with slightly more explanation:
"Method not found" and the "System.Array.Empty" info don't really point me in a direction for what I need to address, at least with the knowledge I have. My .net framework should be good enough since I don't get a warning about that when I start the GUI or use anything else. Any thoughts on what I should do to be able to correct the error and convert .nkit.gcz files? Any substantive help would be appreciated and I will offer a token of gratitude to anyone that can help solve the issue.
*Edit: I am running this on 64-bit Windows 7. Does not work even if tried on different computers.
hmmm, dunno, as i only have the .wbfs of the faulty game for now. i will comeback once ive tested another oneLots of games are very small assuming you converted the .ISO to .WBFS format.
Do other games work? Or is it just that game not working?
2 improvements can be made to your syscheck, first you should install priiloader, secondly your hbc is slightly outdated. Neither of these would be the cause of your issue thoughHello, i am having problems with USBloader gx, the game (the game in question being very light, not even having 1gb) wont load and when i try to load him, the screen turns black and the only way to leave that screen is to pull off the power chord.
