    Hacking Can you help? Need to create game channels from wbfs files...

    Thanks so much for this SonicMC. I hear you about potentially bricking the wii, that's why I've avoided some of the older guides I found. Think I'll look into what you said about back up / restore and try to learn a bit about that before doing anything else. Thanks so much for your tips on...

    Hacking Black screen issues with some titles only...

    Thanks so much for this. I can see where the problem with the disc update messed things up. I've done everything you said about setting up 249 and 250 in CIOS with the higher revision of 65535 etc. I just have one question: Here you said: Then, inside the USBLoaderGX settings set this ...

    Hacking Black screen issues with some titles only...

    I thought that might be the issue too, but they are all various regions. So for example, from the working titles, there are both PAL and NTSC as far as I am aware. So I don't think the region is the issue. From what I've understood from researching this, I think USB Loader deals with the...
