    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    Update: I've got it to work by switching from 50hz to 60hz mode. I don't like doing this, as it looks like shit on my TV. Anyone have any better solutions?

    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    OK so I reinstalled cIOS249, 250 and 251, then tried to boot MKW from ULGX. It crashed to a black screen (predictably) and then my Wii started buzzing through the TV. Now if I launch on IOS 250 (but not 249 or 251) it crashes back to the HBC rather than black screening. Haven't been able to...

    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    Before I go and get it, will the NTSC version run on a PAL Wii? I'm confused, can ULGX launch the game from the disc with the Wiimmfi setting enabled? Or are you referring to Bean's patch thingy? By the way, I had another look at the SysCheck I did before installing cIOS250. What do these...

    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    OK so I tried ripping MKW again with all these settings changed (albeit with an NTFS formatted USB stick) with no luck. So I thought I'd try something different - I ripped Trackmania onto the same USB stick, and amazingly it booted. So my title is wrong, it's just MKW that has problems...

    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    I've already tried that. ULGX won't load any instance of MKW, whether patched, non-patched, or with Wiimmfi turned on in settings. I'll give it another go but I don't think this cIOS update would've changed how ULGX is ripping discs (unless I'm mistaken). If this is just a ULGX/flash drive/ios...

    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    Didn't work, unfortunately. I'm using the bottom USB port (left one) - when the other one is used ULGX won't recognise it. The USB stick (with the ULGX-ripped MKW file on it) can't be read by Windows and therefore I can't use it with Wii Backup Manager, is that normal? I tried formatting the...

    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    Why won't Bean's Wiimmfi patcher app or the CTGP channel work then? All my HBC files are on an SD card. To clarify, I'm not just downloading isos, I'm ripping from a physical game disc with ULGX. Once I rip (whether I've then gone and patched it to connect to Wiimmfi or not) it boots to a...

    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    It has the four GCN controller slots along the top, so I assume it can? I don't have any GCN games to test though. USB Loader GX won't load an unmodified iso off my USB stick (but it will let me burn isos from the physical disc to the storage media). I get the same black screen. I think there's...

    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    Good idea, I didn't think of that - I don't have anything capable of burning discs atm though - think I'd prefer to just buy a new Wii if it's a hardware problem. Is there a way to test if it can run burned discs without burning one and trying it?

    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    Didn't work unfortunately. Formatted SD and put on a fresh HBC boot.elf and a fresh download of the Wiimmfi patcher, still gets stuck on applying main.dol patches. Should I update the Wii and redo the letterbomb exploit/reinstall the HBC? I think I'm on version 4.3, would that even be possible?

    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    Thanks for that. I tried it, then launched MKW with ULGX and got the black screen. Then I tried the CTGP channel and it said my install may be corrupted and to delete /sd/ctgpr/jelly.bin. I did that, the channel loaded, but the game didn't boot (disc drive appears to have stalled error). Is it...

    Hacking Wii no longer boots any modded games (only home menu launcher works)

    Basically, I'm trying to play MKWii on Wiimmfi. I've been using a patched iso launched with USB loader GX for the past few years now with no issues. However, when I tried to launch the game again a few days ago, I got an error about an XML file when launching ULGX that I didn't really pay...
