Hey, I am using Dios Mios 2.2, which was recently working for me. I was trying to get NMM (No More Memory) to work so I could save Gamecube games to the SD card, well I couldn't get it.

After giving up, I went to just play a Gamecube game via Dios Mios, using the Dios Mios Booter and when I launch the game, it just brings me to my Wii Menu.

So before NMM, it was working, after trying whatever to get NMM working, it does this Wii Menu thing now.

This is what I did to try to get NMM to work:
I installed the NMM Wad that NMM has you download. (It's in the ReadMe File of NMM)

Here is the ReadMe file
NMM v0.2a by crediar
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

NMM is a tool which patches all GameCube Memory Card code to access the
front SD card instead.

This obviously only works on a Wii in GC mode.

It is not allowed to resell, rehost, redistribute or include the files of
this tool in any packages!

Changes
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
0.2a:
-NMM now skips the CARD patches when something is inserted in slot A
-Rewrote the xNEEK-Installation instructions
-Added WAD-Installation instrucions
-Fixed CARDMountAsync
-Fixed CARDCreate
-Fixed CARDOpen
-Fixed CARDGetStat always returning SUCCESS even when entries were
empty
-Fixed a bug in the CARDCreate code which would always create a 512
byte file instead of the real size.
-Fixed a bug that only created a too small stats.bin
-Added a new pattern for CARDProbeEx (SSBM)
-Added CARDFastOpen patch and pattern (SSBM)
-Added CARDGetEncoding patch and pattern (XG3)
-Added CARDGetMemSize patch and pattern (XG3)

0.1a:
-This version already did cache the patches though the readme.txt
said it wouldn't


xNEEK-Installation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Download MIOSv10 from NUS and decrypt it
2. Use FixELF to create the patched MIOS file:
FixELF 0000000c.app nmm.elf 0000008.app
3. Assure that BC is installed to your virtual NAND
4. Navigate to the BC folder on your NAND
/title/00000001/00000100/content/
5. Replace the 00000008.app file with the just created patched MIOS file

Note: "00000008.app" is the name of BC when BCv6 is installed, if using
a different version just replace the larger file!

6a. When using SNEEK or UNEEK without DI, simply insert the game you want
to play and start it through the disc channel

6b. With +DI we sadly have to use a workaround, you must install a GC
game via the DiscEX tool and then select it in the SNEEK menu.
(This will NOT load the selected game from USB!)


WAD-Installation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Download MIOSv10 and BCv6 from NUS and decrypt it
2. Use FixELF to create the patched MIOS file:
FixELF 0000000c.app nmm.elf 0000008.app
3. Replace the 0000008.app file of the BC files
4. Repack the BC contents
5. Use any wad installer to install the wad

Note: NMM can be installed to any IOS slot, you just need a way to load
that IOS slot.

Unstalltion
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Simply get a clean BC wad from NUS and install it.


General Info
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

NMM will not apply any patches when something is inserted in slot A!

NMM outputs some log info via USBGecko and also some parts to /nmm.log.

NMM uses a cache system for the patches. After the first launch of a game
any further launches will be much faster.

NMM emulates the memory card in slot A.


FAQ
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Q: Does this only work with original games?

A: NMM only works with original discs, or anything the drive accepts.
If you have a drivechip installed a copy will work aswell.

Q: What about a version that uses USB?

A: That's sadly not possible due a hardware limitation.
Same reason why DIOS-MIOS was discontinued!

Q: Will I be able to manage the virtual GC memory card in the Wii menu?

A: No.

Q: Where is the source?

A: There won't be any source code, sven gave me a license free version
of his SD/SDHC code.

Q: What about those games that are not working, will they ever work?

A: Usually those games just need a new pattern for some CARD function
that the current patcher misses.

Q: My Wii suddenly switched itself off?!

A: When a fatal error occurs a debug message is sent via USBGecko and
NMM shuts the Wii down.

Q: Why did you make this tool? I can get a GC memcard for 5€/$/Yen!

A: Soley for the challenge of it, I don't care if anyone uses but I
know there are at least a few who will use it, so I release it.

Q: Why don't you want others to rehost your tools?

A: The main reason is to prevent that outdated versions stay online,
another reason is that I don't want to support all those premium
web hosters, if you upload stuff there you help THEM to make money!
And why should they earn money from my(your) work?

Game Compatibility
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here a short list of games I've tested personally so you can verify that
your setup is working.

I'm sure people will set up a real list somewhere online.

Working:
Zelda:WW
Zelda:Four Swords
Mario Kart Double Dash
Super Mario Sunshine
Xtreme G 3 (Hold A to save/load/create)
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4


Not Working:
Super Smash Bro. Melee (freeze on file creation)
Eternal Darkness
F-Zero GX (does work until after the name select)
Timersplitters 2
Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance
Soulcalibur 2

To all who contributed to WiiRd and Dolphin!

The red part is the thing I tried to do but couldn't understand how to do apparently.

So after this whole Return to Wii Menu thing, I started installing things like Miosv10 which made my USB Loader lose the ability to see Gamecube games. So then I installed Dios Mios 2.2which then had me regain the ability to see Gamecube games. So that's cool, except it returns me to the home menu.

I have Google'd the crap out of this and I couldn't find anything. So I decided to ask you guys.
Here is some info:

I am loading games via USB Hard Drive. Which I had working great until this dang NMM thing. (I was trying to get it to work so I could have "2" Gamecube Memory Cards so me and my friend could coop on Sims 2)

Loaders I have been trying:
USB Loader GX
CFG USB Loader
Dios-Mios Booter
WiiFlow

Settings for Dios-Mios Booter:
Boot Method: New (DM 2.1+)
Language: Wii
Video Mode: Auto
Booter Drive Reset: Off
NTSC-J Patch: No
Video Patching: Auto
Cheats: Off
Debugger: Off
Wait for Debugger: Off
NMM: Off
NMM Debugger: Off
Activity LED: Off
Pad Hook: Off
No Disc: Off
Widescreen (DM 2.1+): Off

If you have ANY other questions. PLEASE ask me, I am not new to this stuff, I'll find what you need.(Unless it's about how to install NMM without making your Wii return to the home screen every time you try launching a game via USB)

Thank you very much. At least if no one answers this, I can't say I didn't try.



EDIT:
Actually at first my Wii would just go black screen. Then I used Pimp My Wii and after it updated all my IOSs, then it started returning me to the home screen.

how do you uninstall NMM ?
You don't uninstall a system file, you install another one over it.

NMM is now a setting, not an installed file.

Install a clean BC v6 (it will replace and remove NMM)
install DIOS MIOS (or DIOS MIOS Lite) v2.10
Use a game loader for DIOS MIOS (Lite) and go to the settings, there's a setting called "nmm".

    I haven't been gaming for such a long time. Been mostly busy with sleep, hardware tinkering and checking GBAtemp frequently.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Hope you've had a good morning.

    It's going alright thanks :) I know what you mean with gaming time. It's precious where I can get it these days.

    I think that's why I focus on just enjoying single player experiences that aren't too competitive

    How are you doing?

    There's also this thing where I'm hyperfocused at night and cannot get to sleep.

    That must be rough. Productive I'm sure but hard to balance with daily life

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.

    @Maximumbeans, I had a friend who had a glass chess set for their birthday.
