One 'dumb' question. Am I safe in just doing a fresh format in FAT32 and wiping the 'private' folder or should I copy that to a temp folder and replace it after formatting to FAT32. Card is currently FAT so I need to format regardless. Thanks in advance.

you can start as many times as you wants, the private folder includes installed games and some data, you can simply use any SD card [2gb or less] and sometimes higher, and start the guide, the private folder is not neede,d if you dont have anything on the wii that is primordial, then just format it as fat32 and start the guide.

Does it come with any apps? Such as USBLoaderGX or RetroArch?

No as i dont see the point of it, since currently the idea of this is softmodding it, v5 was planned to include links to such repos / directories, but not many people want or ask for that, so so far is still on the horizon.

Success! Now I assume all I have to do is use modmii to download USB loaders and whatnot.

For whatever reason your letterbomb implementation was failing to make the pink exploit letter show up. The letterbomb site still worked though. 4.1U Wii.

Wildbrand is was released later than Letterbomb, so it should do the work, maybe a bad configuration on your side_ easily more than 200 wii´s softmodded with this, and every single one worked.

Bad configuration in what way? I followed what you said and no exploit was occurring.

Wrong Date on your Wii, Wrong Mac Address? there are several factors. the Exploit its generated to be 1 days or the next day to the current one, if your wii is not synced with the exact time, then this will happen ;D

Date and Time.

I checked date/mac several times - these items are also needed for the letterbomb site (which worked). I was not being incompetent. The exploit was just failing to trigger.

Try a different SD card maybe? Letterbomb is finicky about them. A plain 2GB SD (not SDHC/XC) is the best to use.

I've modded over a dozen Wiis. On a couple of them it didn't show up for me either. All I did, beside getting mad, was try checking the messages the next day and it showed up as it should have originally after install on the day prior. Weird, almost like it had to wait 24hrs for the time on the Wii to cycle.

So I've been trying for a little while it's my first time doing this but I am getting the same error in regards to wilbrand.exe however I can download the file manually and have done so but I'm stuck as to what to do next.

 

[ScarletDreamz]

Seem like an error from a change in GITHUB, ill try to fix it when i have time, in the meanwhile, you can download wilbrand.exe from the adress that the error provides, and put it aside with the .exe

I should fix it in the next release.

Oddly enough if I download it and put it in with the exe it tries to download it anyway gives the error and deletes the file.

Running into the same problem. Went to mod a Wii this morning and having the same error regarding the wiibrand.exe as mentioned above.

 

[ScarletDreamz]

I see, thats it due to wilbrand being forzable to download, let me try to fix it. thing is im at work and ddont got the source here, will try to improvise.

 

[ScarletDreamz]

Yeah, the error is that github does not let downloads like this anymore, so will have to host wilbrand.exe on another website.

 

[Memnoch9299]

Can you do that when you have time or is that something the original author of wiibrand will have to do?

 

[ScarletDreamz]

i can do it once i'm at home.
