EDIT:
Ok I've done by myself with d2x installer and CIOSMAPS.xml.... it's easier than I expected

Just one question, are xml comments supported in CIOSMAPS.xml?
Initially I got a code dump after pressing A in the welcome screen.
However after removing comments and changing modules extension from .APP to .app everything worked.

bug noted

Ok guys good news.
Finally rodries and me have managed to get a new ehci module using interrupts.
U-Sing 2 is working perfectly and hopefully all problematic games are now lag free.
Expect a new beta soon.

Oh, currently only d2x installer can be used to install the upcoming cios.
ModMii needs to be updated in order to apply the new patch for IRQ 4.

By chance is this "new ehci module using interrupts" the same as that in Rodries' MOD of Herme's cIOS2XX v5.1E? Or will Rodries be releasing an updated version of the Herme's cIOS MOD as well? I think XFlax may want to know that too, as he is adding Rodries MOD of Herme's cIOS into ModMii.

I'm pretty sure that they are NOT the same.. (atleast not yet)

Bad dump maybe? Mine works fine with default settings.

What Loader/cIOS version are you using?

Maybe you have the DVD5 custom dump without Metroid Prime 3. This game should be DL.

@davebaol

Does the improvement on the ehci module mean increased compatibility with usb hard disks that were not compatible with prior versions of this cios?

@codeZer0:

yes...run installer twice....

...you must have (re)modded a while ago or used an outdated version of modmii to have ended up with d2xv4....either way, the d2x installer will remedy that with v6.

Hermes 223 v4 is better than v5 (which is why modmii uses it) ...the [75] is really a merged [37+38]...so nothing to concern yourself with there.

with d2x-v6 in 249[56] and 250[57], you shouldn't need anything in the 245-248 slots....some guides have them...but you have pretty much all the compatibility you need with 249/250

Click to expand...

Actually, I used ModMii last night... and once again this morning to verify that things were the way they should be. It is up to date... but yea, after the IOS installs, it still is only giving me d2x v4. Thankfully, the installer now provided allowed me to update to d2x v6

mmm, it should not do that, the latest modmii version supports v6 as a standard...try deleting the files in the temp folder and the d2x-beta folder.

No, I'll give you ciosmaps.xml and modules

Currently d2x installer is the only way I have to install the new cios so I've already modified the xml

BTW are xml comments supported in ciosmaps.xml?
It seems they doesn't work but maybe I'm wrong.

I would suggest using WiiMod (v2.6) with AHBPROT to extract an IOS or a channel
to a WAD.

Click to expand...

you can with this tools extract your channel from nand ?

This is Any Title Manager option

Click to expand...

Of course. You can try yourself.
http://gbatemp.net/t272321-wii-mod-v1-0?

Can the WAD's extracted with WiiMod be installed on a different Wii or only on the Wii it was extracted from?

I have to check the xml to see if you failed

Dragbe said he will check for the comments bug in xml

Would you like to test the new cios d2x v7alpha1?
Join us on cfg usbloader irc channel.
This is an alpha release and no sources are provided so I can't post it here.

These are the tests that I'd like to see:
all the bases, HDDs compatibility, various games especially the musical ones, nand emulation, ios reload block, wiiflow cover issue (I suspect that this issue is back again) and dvd dump on different file systems

Hi davebaol... great work. Have you add new features to nand emulation ?

these Cioses are causing me a lot of issues with my new hard drive toshiba canvio 2.5" usb 3.0 750GB (4k sector)
after launching the loader from homebrew channel or from the forwarder on wii's main menu, the canvio is detected and the program "freezes" (on startup screen)
this drive works fine with waninkoko and hermes cioses

also the d2x are working fine with my "old" western digital passport 2.5" usb 2.0 250GB drive, so it has to be a 4k sector issue

my favorite loader is cfg usb loader (tried different versions), but happens the same when using usb loader gx

puma303 · Jul 7, 2011

what are you speaking? new v7 alpha1 or d2x v6 ????

NutNut · Jul 7, 2011

Someone gave me the v7alpha1 but the ciosmap.xml is not correct

I believe your HDD is 512B sector size, not 4K.
In fact AFAIK waninkoko cios doesn't support 4K sector size.
And usually HDDs lower than 2TB have 512B per sector.

Also your issue is likely due to USB 3.0 which is not officially supported by any cios out there.

Finally give v7alpha1 a chance and let me know.

Did d2x work for you?

Yes, I had an issue with the official cios and d2x fixed it

Yes, but everything was already working for me with the official cios

No, and I posted what goes wrong

No, and I won't report what goes wrong because I am a troll
