    Hacking USB Loader GX

    in sd card mode is it possible to use an emunand on usb? this is a viable setup in other loaders (so it's technically possible although i don't know under what cios), but my preference is to use usb loader gx. my game backups are located in sd:/wbfs and my emunand in usb1:/nands/nand1. if...

    Hacking NUS NANDBuilder for Wii: Fixed NAND creation.

    actually i fixed it with the patched Ohneschanzenegger r106fix. created a new nand using the previous garbage character backup as a template and simply did not format afterwards. *update* ack, it creates a new empty nand with no data. i'm still back to how to reimport the extracted contents.

    Hacking NUS NANDBuilder for Wii: Fixed NAND creation.

    i used an older ver of this tool and just finished setting up a somewhat elaborate nand after flashing it. i pulled a final bootmii backup only to discover the garbage characters after directory names when trying to extract an emunand. i really don't want to re-do all that work (it was a chore...

    Hardware NKit :: Recover to Redump Images :: Shrink and Preserve Wii and GameCube Disc Images as Playable

    I had initial reservations about nkit (.net related), but I have since embraced it as my primary archive format. truth be told I still employ wbfs on a physical console to play most games, but I have everything stored permanently in nkit.gcz as a compromise for ready emulation use. I have read...
