You can have multiple versions of java installed and an old one selected by Windows to use. Rather than going through the java control panel applet and manually removing all versions just go into "programs and features" and uninstall everything that says java. Then download java and install it

Looks like that did it. I deleted all of the JREs but I forgot a had a Dev environment installed. You had ONE job, stupid java control panel

Sometimes you may want to install a game to NAND if it does not work on USB (or vice-versa).


Try preparing your SD card again as a new version of Nintendont might have been published.
Also, if possible, try with another sd card just to make sure the current one is not causing problems, which is sometimes the case.

The file is at the root of the sd card.
Can you send to me your current config file?
Here is the config

Dumb question, I've been trying to get gamecube injections to work, some have worked fine, such as Mario Kart Double Dash and some others, but often times I either get a black screen with a console freeze, or the console shuts off after loading into vWii with no information given. Really want to play Melee. I tried loading the .iso into /games/ as well and running Nintendont on the vWii and it still refuses to run. Same thing with Eternal Darkness, Zelda: Four Swords Adventures, and Kirby's Air Ride.
Hey guys.
I tried to find the solution to what happens on my Wii U, I could not, even using the search in this topic and in others.

I can not run the injected NGC games. I had a first problem when trying to inject using the wi-fi RECodeV-X game, at 99% the application was in a loading state and nothing happened until the Wii U stopped responding, even showing the screen "connected" with the USB Helper.
I did the method of installing it directly on the SD, then use the WUP installer. Okay, installed.
But every game of NGC (after that I did test with others) he throws me to the black screen, shows the Wii logo, then restart the Wii U (NAND). I'm using Mocha and already tried installing nintendont, but it never started.
What am I doing wrong?
I have no idea if I skipped any step. I just installed the HBC, so I started the mocha. Other VCs work perfectly.

Thank you!
Unfortunately I have seen other people with the same issue but afaik as I know it's related to Nintendont itself so there isn't much I can do.
Are you using an external hard drive by the way?

Here is the config
So you nincfg is indeed different from the USB Helper one.
Try with this instead :

No it's not possible to do that on the Wii U unfortunately. The dashboard in the picture is the USB Helper Game Mode but that only works on desktop.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Then I delete it then what? I'm having the same error on Paint.net when I used it before AND when installing the discord app, I HAVE THE SAME ERROR.
Does the issue persist even when it's completely deleted?
There is a bug I would like to report. For pokemon xd gale of darkness and mario sunshine there have been times when I know for certain I pressed save and the game says it saved, but when I turn off my wii u and come back to play again, my progress wasnt saved and my game is back to the last saved state I started on before. It doesn't always do this, its actually kinda rare. It only happened 4 times but its really annoying when it does because even if you save multiple times it can still never actually save.
That's probably a Nintendont issue, try reporting it to the devs.

.

Yeah, I'm using an external hard drive. I've reported it to them in there, they got me to delete my nincnfg.bin and had autogenerate one and now I can play isos off of my SD card but all of my injections now fail. Going to switch to the config you provided and see if they work again.

Nope, the injects fail now, completely. Hooray.

Hey hikari06 not sure if this is also a nintendont bug, but just incase, I'll mention it to you here. Sometimes when playing with the gamepad on a injected GC game, the A button switches to the X button. Like the button used to select or jump or whatever the A button is supposed to do in the game, it becomes the x button instead. Must be some kind of button mapping error I really don't know. I'm guessing its a nintendont error not anything to do with usb helper but I'd just like to mention it to you. Thanks for all your hard work HHikari06 bro. once a again YOU THE MAN

Yeah this is also because of Nintendont.
I think I read somewhere that pressing minus can switch the layout, can you try this?

Nintendon't sometimes counts gamepads, and wii remote w/ classic controller (pro) as bluetooth controllers which makes their controls act like xbox controllers

An update on my issue with WUP installer Y Mod, I wiped the SD card and just copied Nintendont, and Homebrew channel, and it showed those rather than just one option but when installing it just threw error MCP_InstallGetInfo, so I googled the error and saw people recommending WUP Installer GX2 so I tried that and it all worked again!

yep, I am installing everything at an 500gb USB external drive.

I tried the following: I hacked the vWii on the NAND and tested the nintendont over there, ran and opened every time.
When I try to open vWii through MOCHA, it does not work, it generates an error message.
The nintendont fowarder I installed on Mocha, also does not work.

About nintendont, what do you recommend? About the games, if I stop using the mocha and switch to another CFW will this new one be able to read the USB games that have already been installed?

I see that would explain it. Hopefully this will be fixed at some point cause it did happen to me while while testing too.

Well the thing is we're still not sure why it does not work on some systems. Some have pointed out hdd incompatibilities but even when installing on NAND it didn't work.
Personally I have tried it on 5.5.1 and 5.5.2 with Mocha and CBHC and it worked without any issue every time.
I am afraid until the Nintendont devs figure this out you might be out of luck.
You can always try using the latest version of Nintendont which will be installed when you click on 'Prepare my SD' but I'm not sure it will help.

Hi, nice Programm

I habe a big Problem

Alle my NGC infected Games nincfg.bin missing

What can i do
Did you use the "Prepare my SD" button on the injection tool? You must prepare your SD before using Nintendont.

So it's super weird. Sometimes my gamecube injections work, and at other times they all just freeze the Wii U on the black screen after booting up vWii. I really don't understand. I think I change my ninconfig to autoload, play a game through nintendont on vWii and then delete that games save file and I manage to get the injects to run? It's a super weird fix.

Hey @Hikari06

I know I'm kinda behind the times here, but I finally decided to download this program lol

Problem is I can't seem to load it. Every time I try to open it it gives me a crash dump telling me it's timed out after loading 0%

Edit: Looks like this, if you need it:

Not sure if this has been reported, but I downloaded and tried to install "Just Dance 2018" twice and both times got " Installation Failed Confirm complete WUP files are in the folder" when I tried to install on wii u using WUP Installer GX2.
