I'm using the sr_corsario's method as well and I can't get it to work....

Copied 1 wad to PC:\batch\wads\
Ran the file: PC:\batch\Forwarder me.bat
Choose 2 (for Wiiware)
Choose 2 (For wad mode)
Used Wiiscrubber to replace the boot.dol in PC:\batch\Forwarders\Wiiware\isos\GAMEID.iso with PC:\batch\Forwarders\Wiiware\isos\GAMEID_main.dol
Copied PC:\batch\Forwarders\Wiiware\FARE.dol to SD:\Forwarders\Wiiware\FARE.dol
Used WBFS Manager 3.0 to copy the PC:\batch\Forwarders\Wiiware\isos\GAMEID.iso to the USB HDD(WBFS formatted)
On the Wii: Ran Homebrew Channel and started WiiFlow 1.1
Selected the game and the Wii freezes at the "Please Wait" message

Then I noticed there is a file: PC:\batch\dols&iso&idlist\3force.dol
Which device/folder should I copy this file to?

Am I missing anything else? Do I need to do any steps in the first post or not?

Thanks!

 

[sr_corsario]

Oks... I will do a tutorial when i get some time ...

However... chrishallowell do it properlly.
Is it that wiware game working with "original" triiforce? do you have that wad extracted into your nand dump?

 

[chrishallowell]

Yes, sorry, I left those steps out... But yes, I can use Triiforce(on the FAT USB HDD) via homebrew to run the wad in the NAND enu(on the FAT USB HDD). I'm on firmware 4.1U with CIOS 249 and 222/223, homebrew 1.0.6 and WiiFlow 1.1.

Used Simple FS Dumper on the Wii to get a NAND dump on SD card
Copied the 8 folders of the NAND dump from the SD card to the USB FAT HDD
Used Showmiiwads to copy a wad file to the NAND
Installed Triiforce on the USB FAT HDD
Ran Triiforce via homebrew and ran the wad in the NAND on the USB FAT HDD (This works)
Copied the wad to PC:\batch\wads\
Ran the file: PC:\batch\Forwarder me.bat
Choose 2 (for Wiiware)
Choose 2 (For wad mode)
Used Wiiscrubber to replace the boot.dol in PC:\batch\Forwarders\Wiiware\isos\GAMEID.iso with PC:\batch\Forwarders\Wiiware\isos\GAMEID_main.dol
Copied PC:\batch\Forwarders\Wiiware\FARE.dol to SD:\Forwarders\Wiiware\FARE.dol
Used WBFS Manager 3.0 to copy the PC:\batch\Forwarders\Wiiware\isos\GAMEID.iso to the USB HDD(WBFS formatted)

Here could be the problem.

Copied PC:\batch\Forwarders\Wiiware\FARE.dol to SD:\Forwarders\Wiiware\FARE.dol

Its supposed wiiware game Id form is Wxxx, not Fxxx

Wich game is it?

 

[chrishallowell]

Gradius NTSC-U.wad (VC - Nintendo), but I thought I read that it didn't matter which type of game was put into the wads folder. I thought it was just for organizing.

 

[sr_corsario]

Well xD its supposed it looks for Id in a certein location... but it could fail xD Try with "list mode"

Any way, i will have a look Gradius

 

[chrishallowell]

I just reread the last few pages and I noticed there was a "new batch" release. I was using the older one, not sure if that has something to do with it or not.
Tonight, I'll try a few other games using the "new batch" release. I'll try and narrow it down too.

Thanks sr_corsario!

 

[sr_corsario]

oks, thats the problem

 

[chrishallowell]

Yes, that was the problem. It works great now! Thanks for your help.

 

[giantpune]

ok- another shameless plug here...


why not compile these with my libstub. it can be found in the usbloader GX source code. it allows to load and change the "return to". so whatever ap you are forwarding to will load and act just like it was loaded from HBC. but when you tell that app to return to the loader it came from, you can have it load whatever title your usb loader is.

so use CFG loader, load the forwarder for ATD or whatever, when you exit ATD, it will go back to CFG loader.

 

[pintamicerca]

thanks a lot for this tutorial

 

[laurozza]

The WiiXplorer ISO forwarder doesn't work for me...give me code dumps...tried different video settings...
Someone got it working?

I'm trying to load my Mario 64.iso fowarder on my usb key...... and the game is on SDHC card.

it works with triforce mrc but I'm getting this error via Wiiflow.

is it possible to change the emplacement the game is loading? I think the fowarder is trying to load from Real Nand...

jeez I've been trying to make it work for like 3 hours and I always get the same error..... where the hell I need to put my games? they're in the sd root.... in title.

is it possible that these forwarders aren't SDHC compatible?
