edit: i've tried 3 different verisons of neo gamma, b7 b8 and probably b6 or something like that, i've tried both with IOS249 rev 15 and rev 14, neither works with wii sports resort of new super mario. i've tried in softchip r99, 100 and 101 with both games in 249 rev 14 and 15 in conjunction with 223, 222 and 233 rev 7 and NOTHING works, both games work fine through config usb loader (but again usb loading isnt an option for them, im just setting it up at my house and giving it back to them later. i tested the games in there to make sure they ARE working through something before i test them in disc loaders)

If you can't use NeoGamma, then don't do it. With cIOSrev14 Wii Sports Resort and NSMB works with it. Wii Sports Resort need alternative .dol loading once, as it does on every other loader as well. NSMB requires using the included patch. If you watched the movie for Wii Sports Resort and your NSMB is patched, then both work with SoftChip as well.

yeh i dont know why they dont work with softchip no matter what IOS i choose they either get some ioctl error or the blue screen of death (even with error 02 disabled) and my NSMB is patched. they only work in uloader, gx (disc loading) or config usb loader

what in the world is the point of dvd loading in an app that only loads when a usb device is attached? thats just completely illogical, why put in the effort if no one that can use it, will use it?

um.... whats the name of this program you are trying to use? USB loader GX, right?


if your "friend" is too cheap to buy a USB drive to work with a USB loader, then he cant use it.

okay smartest person ever, instead of being a raging prick, why don't you answer that question? What is the point of DVD loader in USB Loader GX? Who would use it if they can load off of USB? I don't see any conceivable and logical reason for it to be there. And yes it is my FRIEND, i know for some people on the internet it is hard to fathom "friendship" and what it entails, why would i say friend if it was for me? Did someone have a bad day or are you always such an asshole to people looking for guidance?

this may be n00b question but if i format a sandisk cruzer usb to wbfs and then back to fat, do i lose that cruzer gui that the usb comes with or is it safe to format the usb to wbfs and still have the cruzer desktop thing?

I wonder if my Wii disc's will work without a Wii, I mean my DVD player has a slot for it, whats the point of having a DVD player if it can't play wii DVD's.

Is my question so outrageous? Not really, your comparison doesn't even come close to the question i posed, your comparison doesn't even rank up to apples vs oranges, they aren't even on the same planet. I know you were really proud of yourself for that analogy but im willing to be a 5th grader could have done better. Now that your done insulting and belittling people (people with valid questions no less) go back to whatever squalid pathetic life you lead outside of the computer (if you have one)

I hate it when people try make comparisons. Stick to the topic because then it becomes a "well your comparison is flawed because..." It is NOT the same as wanting to play a Wii game in a DVD player.

I hate it too when people make comments on peoples comparisons.

yeh obviously its so simple if there are endless threads about it on this forum and many others. hacking the wii is a trial and error endeavor, and when you have other people with similar problems instead of banging away at it endlessly you pose questions to other people with experience to see if they can help come to a solution. If my question was stupid i would be prepared to be berated. But it wasn't, it was a very valid question and neither of the people heckling me actually gave an answer, instead they rolled their eyes and called me an idiot. Throwing mud and ad hominem attacks aren't a valid way to answer a question, it makes people hurling the insult look juvenile and foolish.

If i phrased the question "why does usb loader gx need a usb drive?" that would be a stupid question. HOWEVER my question was "why have a dvd backup loader in usb loader gx if you NEED a usb drive to run it? If this wasn't a valid question hermes would not have added the ability to load dvd's AND the 2 option to skip to the usb loading timeout screen if it wasn't a valid request and question. Chew on that for a minute.

If you want to have an elitist attitude do it about something that matters. "im better at hacking the wii then you" Wow what an accomplishment! Your parents must be SO proud!

There are a few sad things here, 1) if you really do have a 4 year old, someone as stupid and juvenile as you is breeding. 2) the fact that you dont realize i myself can and have been able to play Wii Sports Resort since its been out so your pathetic attempt to make me jealous or feel stupid isn't working. I've gotten it working in many different ways, just not the ones that i need for my friend, if you are so bored why do you keep coming back to respond?

There is no r882-r884. Do you mean r842-r843? Try deleting all the GX files and start off fresh.

That's the point of the forwarder dol though. There's no need to update because it points to the same place every time. Double check your apps/usbloader_gx folders and, it might sound dumb, but make sure the app is boot.dol and not r8xx.dol.

lol yea that is dumb jk.
the method i do is as follows (posting it to see if its the right way)
using preloaderv0.30r3
when preloader loads up choose install file and choose GXforwarder.dol from the root of the sd card.
it installs
make sure auto boot to installed file is on
turn off *just to make sure
turn on ... wait black screen and nothing happens.


anything wrong with that?lol


my folder looks like this
J:\apps\usbloader_gx
boot.dol
icon.png
meta.xml
rev.txt

hmm the rev text says 841 even though im pretty sure im using r843 cause i installed the r843.wad

Alright, so I have been having a bit of a problem getting this to read my USB External Harddrive.

I have been following this:
QUOTE said:
Online method (Using wifi on the wii)

Get the Trucha bug restorer by wiipower and run it with the HBC. You will see a lot of white text on a black screen. This is how many installers/patchers look like. It has no nice banner and stuff to keep the filesize low.


1) Select IOS36 and press A. Even more text appears, read it if you want. Wait for the text at the bottom to appear and press 1.

2) Choose Downgrade IOS15. Then download from NUS (2 times). Follow instructions on the screen.

3) Now we can use the downgraded IOS15 to restore the Trucha in IOS36. Run TBR again. This time choose IOS15 and again press A then 1 when the text appears.

4) Go into the IOS36 menu. Use these configurations: 36 (this is in what IOS-slot the patched IOS36 will be placed.) YES YES NO (actually you can choose what you want for the last 2 options), then select Install patched IOS36 and press A. Choose Download from NUS once again and follow on screen instructions.

5) Now we have the patched IOS36, we can restore our IOS15 again. Load the TBR one last time. Choose IOS36,... .This time choose restore IOS15. Get the IOS from NUS and let the app finish everything.


We are ready to install our cIOS. I will explain here how to get cIOS38r14 by waninkoko. You can also install another rev of this cIOS (don't go lower than r9) or a rev of IOS222/223 by hermes. All IOS have different uses and bugs. Its up to you to find out what these are.


Get the installer here: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=6531 . Follow all the instructions at the link, but choose IOS36 instead of IOS249 (this is why we have patched IOS36). When you are asked to use wad install or online install, choose online install. You will then have the cIOS needed by the USB loader.

To get it to work.

Every time I try to do step 4, it just fails and says:
net_gethostbyname: -125
and then automatically has this error:

Exception (DS1) occured!
GPR00 800F62V8
etc

31 in all.

Stack Dump and Code Dump.

I don't know what is going on?

I have the USB port hooked into the bottom, but the activity light on the External Hard Drive shows nothing at all. It used to get SOME activity before I started this whole process when I just attempted to load the USB_LoaderGX program.

Any help?

I fixed it by restoring my NAND backup. I can now load the content perfectly fine and the installer works.

However, I am still not able to get the Loader to recognize my Hard Drive. I used WBFS Manager 3.0 and I do have two games on the Hard Drive already, I am not sure why it isn't recognizing it.

I do have a compatible HDD after checking the Device Compatiblity List.
SimpleTech HDD Enclosure 3.5" IDE USB2.0

Is the one I have.

    @BigOnYa I wanted to ask you about your experience with seeing south park. Most of the people a bit younger like my younger brother and cousins that are a few younger than me that saw kids found south park funny because of the curse words, kids at school, that seemed like liking the show on a very basic level.

    I could not quite have a in depth discussion of the show.

    How was it for you? As an adult. What did you find the most interesting part about it. Did you relate to the parents of the kids and their situations. Was it satires, the commentary on society. The references on celebrities' and pop culture.

    I remember seeing the very first episode back in the day, and have watched every episode since. I used to set my VCR to record them even, shows how long ago.

    South Park is great cause they always touch on relavent issues going on today, and make something funny out of it.

    @BigOnYa were you always up to date on the current events and issues of the time or were there issues that you first found out thru south park
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Most of the time yea I knew, I watch and read the news regularly, but sometimes the Hollywood BS stuff, like concerning actors slip by me. I don't follow most Hollywood BS (example: the Kardasians)

    @BigOnYa there were relevant issues before south park was made, that's why i think a south park prequel/spinoff would be great. Randy and his friends in their child hood

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, like them running in high school together, getting into stuff, and how they got hitched and had kids. And how the town of South Park was back then compared to now. That would be cool to see.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @salazarcosplay if they made a prequel, it would still be about current issues, cause it doesn't make sense to make it about stuff that happened 30 years ago that nobody cares about anymore
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's too late
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the older south park episodes about particular issues usually age poorly since the topic is no longer relevant

    an exception is giant douche vs turd sandwich, that's always relevant :P
