Have you tried a different GC controller? Maybe there's some weird short in it or something. Is it official Nintendo made or 3rd party?

It's official, and I have tried 4 different controllers now.
All official.

Try loading the game with wiiflow instead and see if that fixes your issue. I rarely use my GC controller, and I never use it for gaming. If wii flow doesn't fix your issue then it has to be an issue with the cIOS. Try loading the games using a different cIOS or even downgrading your cIOS to a lower version. Thats all I got.

and no, boot2v2 would not be the source of this issue.

I tried loading with wiiflow but wiiflow wouldn't load anything for some reason.
So I went back to CFGUSB to try a different cIOS, the ones I tried were:
222
249
250
All had the same outcome, loaded the game but GC still didn't work.

Then it seems to be an issue with your cIOS if wiiflow isn't working for you for whatever reason, or just try an older version because the newer version seems to have issues.

I downloaded an older version of Wiiflow and it loaded games.
The Wii still wouldn't read the GC controller, except this time the Wii would crash to every other cIOS except 249 and 250

It just seems like there's something I could do, also I just wanna add that whenever I push power to turn off the Wii when it loads a game through gecko/usb/ect that it freezes and I have to hard reset.
It turns off normally when I load it from disc.

Does that give anyone an idea to what to do?

Okay you guys, what if I update through Nintendo to 4.3 and re-hack my Wii with modmii?

If that's a bad idea, I give up and I'll request this to be closed.

^^That sentence didn't really make sense but I'll try my best to understand what you meant.

This will be my third time saying that it sounds like an issue with your cIOS's.

You'd be better off to build a new nand with pune's ohneswartzanegger app instead of updating through nintendo. Not that updating through nintendo will hurt anything, I just highly doubt it will help.

Sorry I was tired when I typed that lol.
Lemme re-phrase:
After I load a game through Gecko or USB loader and then shut off the Wii(after it's loaded and everything) the Wii freezes and will not turn off. (Green light stays on forever)

So what should I do with my cIOSs? I tried updating with Modmii and always get the same outcome.

Also I thought Nintendo would remove the hacks and I could re-install them and it would work.

I don't know the full technical details with what I am about to say, but this may play a small role. With IOS's and cIOS's (and maybe other types of wad files) there are some parts that are shared parts that don't get deleted or overwritten when installing or uninstalling and IOS or cIOS of the same slot and version number.

I'm kinda talking out of my ass with that, but I just remember reading something about that stuff in the past and that might be partly playing a role in your issue. Maybe someone else can clarify it some more.

    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

    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
