Ok these are the instructions I am going to follow....I have never attempted this before. My questions are
1] Is there a better (easier) way to do this?
2] Does it matter what version my Wii is etc?
3] How would I go about changing the backup loader screen?
The zip file I have seems to have everything I need inside the Put onto SD Card folder are the following folders+files..
Any help or tips would be GREATLY appreciated!
What you need :
***************
1. Nintendo Wii with wii controller and nunchuck.
2. Legends of Zelda Original Game
3. SD Memory Card (any size)
4. Shop Channel update (part of the rar)
5. Homebrew Installer (part of the rar)
6. IMGBurn or Nero
Brief:
******
Everything that you need is contained in this Zip - put the whole lot onto an SD card and we can move on from there.
Since this is a beta some games still wont work - check for compatibility on the thread.-
Stage 1 : Install homebrew Channel
**********************************
1. Start up the Wii with legends of Zelda and save a game.
2. Put the Homebrew installer onto an SD Card by unzipping it to the root
3. Quit the game and go to Wii Menu - Wii OPtions - Data Management - Save Data - Wii and delete the Zelda Saved File.
4. Click the SD card tab at the top and select the EUR file (for Europe) or US (for US) and when asked to copy to the wii system memory select Yes
5. Go back to the zelda game and start it - and select the saved game Twilight Hack.
6. Talk to the man by pressing A - and wait for an install screen
7. Click Accept (1 button) to all of the menus
8. Upon returning to the Wii menu , you will have Homebrew Installed (may need a hard reboot at this stage)
Stage one complete !
Info :
The homebrew channel includes a few games like Tetris, Doom , Quake and a few more and has a Homebrew browser for anyone who wants more homebrew applications.
I have also recently included the Wii MPLayer that lets you listen to streaming audio with your wii ... not classy looking but it works well. mplayerwii.conf is where you find the stations.
Stage 2 : Install the rest
**************************
1. Go to the Homebrew Channel and select safe update 3.3u - this will update the wii with the recent nintendo releases and save you headaches in the future (Thanks tona)
2. In the homebrew channel select cIOS Installer and install that - all files required are also in the zip so it should be quick (Thanks WiiGator)
3. Select number 6 - WAD manager and install the BackupLoaderChannel0.3.wad file (Thanks Tgames)
4. Burn your ISO to disc (no need to patch them with this version) and get ready to play games.
