I have a couple games that do not work, but i heard that maybe some of them could be fixed with hermes, or using a different cios. So, can anyone give me a list of what games on wii need what cios? Like cios 249, 250, or something else.

D2x v8-final base 57 should play the vast majority of games, generally this is installed to slot 249. If it doesn't work try the same but with base 56, generally installed to slot 250. And if that doesn't work try 222,223 or 224. All 5 of which modmii would have u install as recommended (I don't recall specific versions for 222-224, they're all hermes and I know 223 is a mix of bases 37+38,anyway the ones that modmii recommends)

Oh, and note that d2x v8-final is pretty much the same as v10 beta 52 (and beta53 is buggy)

Good news! the games work! all but one started to work after i got the new cios! Afterwords, i figured that the game i was having trouble with was a bad dump, as all others either worked with 249, or 250. So, i guess i will be making a new dump of that.

I've got my Wii setup with a 2tb HDD with over 750 Wii games.. only ciso I use is d2x ciso beta 52 (base 56 & 57)
All games work so far. But I found just dance 2017 works with Wii flow not usbloadergx. So it might not be a ciso problem.
And if your play off region games then you may need to change your display settings from pal to NTSC or vis versa

Saying "249" or "250" or "222" is not right, as you can install anything in all these slots.
what's important is the "base" and "version".

Most game will work fine with "d2x v8 base57"
only some game will require specific and different base (and you install it where YOU want).

So, I'm pretty sure that list is more what you asked for :
https://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/Wii_cIOS_base_Compatibility_List#Confirmed

And for Channels on emuNAND:
https://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/Wii_cIOS_EmuNAND_Compatibility_List



And if you don't understand what I'm talking about, and you want to learn more about slot and base, I recommend this one :

I wrote another guide, but this one seems to be liked by a lot of users for its simplicity to understand.

Thanks a lot! This "wii" be very helpful for it. While the game compativatity is useful, this will help a lot more. Though, i already know iOS bases and stuff.
Since my cousins play just dance, i guess i install the base iOS 57 to the iOS 249. What about the other games though?
Also, what about the cios d2x v10 r52? There are a lot of guides that use this one. Your the only that i have seen who recommended v8?

You can use both Versions.They are "the same"....technically.
Cyan gives you Links where it is explained.:)

Thank you.:)

Oof. ok. thanks.
There are maybe some Wii/USB Device (mainly USB Sticks and their Relatives...) "Configuration/Setups",it can happen there,some Games works with v8 and gives a Black Screen/Throwback to the Homebrew Channel with v10.

There is no List on which Circumstances this happens....
Some have better Experience with v8 (with their Setup),some with v10.:)
