after running modmii, u should have an "apps" folder on your sd card; if it's not there, then nothing will be listed in the HBC. Also, if u have a USB HDD plugged into the wii at the same time, make sure the HBC is trying to read the SD card, not the HDD, either change the HBC settings by hitting 1 while in the HBC, or just remove your HDD from the Wii entirely so only SD card apps will be listed.

u might have a copy_to_sd folder after running modmii (if u didn't specify a different location, like SD:), u should copy the contents of that folder to your sd card. If when running modmii, and files were missing or invalid, u should continue using ModMii until u have ALL the files it says u need before proceeding to use your modmii guide on your wii itself

so even though modmii said files were invalid or missing u decided to try continuing on with your guide anyways? not a smart move

if IOSs\cIOSs or other ninty files are missing, just keep trying, the issue is ninty servers being down and it's most likely just temporary

if apps are failing to download (eg. mmm) then u should apply the ModMiifix.bat I linked to a day or 2 ago earlier in this thread

XFlak, suggestion, before I forget. You should make an option in ModMii t have it download absolutely everything possible to complete the temp folder. I know that can kinda already be done, but just to add in that feature would be freaking awesome.

I'm trying to build Neek2o folders (ModMii 6.1.5, Neek2o rev88), but I get this error message:

"Some files required for neek2o installation
are missing. Aborting neek2o installation,
check your internet connection then try again."

My internet connection is OK.

did u apply the temporary ModMiiFix.bat? If not, see the first post of this thread

Did it all, installed and then used the patch but bootmii.org... failed: No such file or directory. Retrying and it stays like that.

Is there no way to upload a full temp folder as it has been pointed out in this topic?

I've been trying to get modwii to work and the installer can't download the following files:
  • Multi-Mod Manager (MMM) v13.4
  • HackMii Installer
  • BootMii SD Files
  • IOS236 Installer v5 Mod
  • Priiloader v0.7 (236 Mod)
Other downloads works just fine.

Is there a mirror link I could get those? Or maybe a single zip file. Thanks in advance!

ps: tried with and without first page fix.bat

You have to actually run the fix, not just download it and place it somewhere.

Yes, I'm aware of that...... didn't work either way.

Wget fails to connect to one source (bootmii org/download), seems that either the links are down or I'm having some firewall issues. Thats why I'm requesting some help.

Wii came with 4.3u installed. Just trying to get HBC and USBLoader up and running. Unfortunately I don't have any games, at least none physical.

Same thing here with the same files, must be the server.

EDIT: Actually after a couple tries, only this are not working:
HackMii Installer: Missing
BootMii SD Files: Missing
* 2 of 63 file(s) are Invalid, Missing or were Not Updated properly

Yeah I'm getting the same thing right now, HackMii and BootMii fail to download.

The Wget window shows:
