    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    Sorry I never thanked you all for your help the other day, but I've been away on a trip for a few weeks and mostly without an Internet connection (yes, it's possible! ). In any case, JoostinOnline, Spongeroberto and PPSainity, I appreciate all of your helpful input! I still don't know why the...

    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    I'm going to check it out too, thanks. I've not been following the scene for a few months now and I haven't played my Wii in a while; just now, while trying to load my USB Loader GX, it says "Games: 0" (I've actually got 150GB worth) and the games won't load. Would you have any idea why? I...

    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    Thanks for the quick reply! 1) I used the Twilight Hack back in the day (about two years ago), and I'm not quite sure what patched IOS that is. I keep trying and it doesn't work... 2) Many thanks for the link! Now the Disc Art for all of the games loads perfectly, but I can't get my old 3D...

    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    Agreed and well put. Sorry for bombarding everyone with questions, but there a few things I'm still unclear about and that are bothering me. Any help would be much appreciated. Provided the time can be found during the busy holiday season! 1) When I try to install cIOSX_rev20b with...

    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    Thanks! I actually discovered Dop-Mii a short while after posting this question, but when I try to update an ios I get an error ("Get -1"). EDIT-> I managed to get the updated IOSs using NUS Downloader and Sonic 4 works fine now. I'd still like to be able to use Dop-Mii to update my IOS from...

    Hacking cIOSX rev19 released

    Sounds good, thanks! EDIT-> For some odd reason, when I try to install cIOSXrev20 into slot 249 with IOS56 as the base like you suggested, I get the error "-116". Any clues?

    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    Sorry for this very basic question (that's why I'm posting in this thread), but how does one update an IOS? I need the following IOSs to get Sonic 4 to work (I've installed the wad and it appears in my system menu, but when I try to access the game it hangs on the black screen).

    Hacking cIOSX rev19 released

    Thanks, will do! So I should definitely go with cIOSXrev20b, not a? What IOS do I have to use as base for the wad manager? Cheers for the tip.

    Hacking 4.3 update question

    Thanks for your quick reply XFlak. I've read some of your posts in other threads about your creation, and I'm quited excited to try it out sometime because of your enthusiasm. The thing is, can it be of any use to me now that my Wii is already softmodded? I have the HBC and several apps and use...

    Hacking cIOSX rev19 released

    I'm on cIOSrev13a at the moment. Is there anything I should be aware of before installing this? Will USB Loader GX and all my VC/Wiiware games work fine if I upgrade to cIOSxrev19? I am aware that installing wads will only work with base 38. Thanks for your help!

    Gaming Sonic 4 coming soon

    Sorry for this very basic question (I'm a noob), but how does one update an IOS? I'm sure I have those IOS installed; I'm running 4.1E, bootmii with boot2, cIOS rev13a, some hacks installed with Startpatch. How can I get the latest versions of the three IOSs?

    Hacking 4.3 update question

    Thank you, this thread was quite helpful in answering questions about updating (and I can finally use the shopping channel again)! Would someone mind explaining in a few words what ModMii and/or dop-mii are exactly? I'm running 4.1E (and not going to update to 4.3 thanks to you guys) and have...

    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    Thanks for your quick reply! I installed two wads, one Region Free and the other NTSC which I then converted to free using Freethewads, so I don't think the region is the issue in my case. I suppose you're right about the ios. I'm having trouble finding out which one I need myself. I'll just...

    Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

    Another question I would like to ask concerns Sonic 4 for VC. I installed the .wad and it appears in my system menu, but when I press the game and try to start it, my screen goes black. Does anyone else have the same problem? I'm running 4.1E.
