USBLoaderGX_r1272_mod_v6.7z

Latest

Yup, I know modmii is a version or 2 behind the latest in terms of usbloader gx and Wiiflow. Already resolved in the beta.

I'm guessing the next update should be ready in late August or September, but I can't promise. What I can say is that it will be worth the wait :)

Hi, I am having issues making the priiloader installer work correctly. I dusted off my previously modded wii and was going through the step by step modmii. The installation screen says IOS58 rev 6176, Priiloader v0.9.1(r0x092658e7).

please wait while we init...

Then I just get a screen that says Press A to exit back to loader, but it hasn't done anything. Also, if I go to load it using the launch tool, it resets out to the main menu.

Any ideas on how to fix this?

This issue is unrelated to ModMii but.. Do you have all the CIOS's installed? post a syscheck.
Is your drive plugged into port 0? Change the option to "port 0" in USBLoaderGX if it's set to port 1 (if you're using y-cable)..
Otherwise, it could be just a corrupted wbfs file, i'd suggest verifying the hash in WiiBackupmanager to make sure it's not corrupted.
Do any other Wii games work for you with this drive? And i assume it's fat32 formated..

I just updated to 6.63 and it immediately says," 'support\sfk' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file". ModMii skin won't load either.

edit: I just uninstalled and downloaded the latest version then reinstalled and it no longer has the error.

BTW, i'm getting this weird behavior of selecting any d2x version I want, but it does not change after some opening/closing of the app. Right now it's stuck in beta53 and doesn't accept me changing it.

What happens if you enter "D" to use the default version of d2x that came bundled with ModMii, it still doesn't change?

Is it possible you are accessing the files ModMii is trying to delete, thus preventing ModMii from deleting them? Inside ModMii's support folder will be a d2x-beta folder (this folder only exists when NOT using the default version of d2x that is bundled with ModMii). When ModMii changes the version of d2x beta it constructs, it updates what's in this d2x-beta folder, or deletes the folder entirely if restoring the default version of d2x.

Used D for default, didn't change. Tried deleting the folder entirely again (which I did before the first wipe) and download one by one again, nothing. It's set to v10-beta52 and won't change. There was something I just noticed: it gives me a message which will stay only for microseconds, so I can't even try to read it or screenshot it. Any chance for a pause interaction there in the future?
Hello XFlak. Coming from this old error. I'm still stuck on v10-beta52, nothing allows me to change it.

Tried changing it from inside Options, nothing. Also tried from Download Page 4, nothing. It's always d2x-v10-beta52.

So far the only "fix" is starting a ModMii folder and download everything from scratch. Works for changing it one time only.

If you need a particular file from my ModMii folder to check, let me know.

Alternatively, I could try forcing it by writing another value into any kind of settings file, if you give me some pointers.

Just thinking another workflow

Current workflow
Exploit -> Bootmii installer
advantage: Simple
disadvantage: may fail if IOS is too old

Another workflow
Exploit -> MMM -> Install IOS 58 -> App Manager -> Bootmii installer
advantage: higher success rate, less chance to take the SD card out and change boot.elf using PC
disadvantage: more steps?

I see the issue now, although I may have messed up the tags and releases order on the d2x github, I will have to try and fix that later.

For now, you can manually solve the issue with 6.6.3 by changing:
support\sfk filter -spat "temp\list.txt" ++"/davebaol/d2x-cios/releases/download/" ++".7z" -!"vwii" -!"uwii" -rep _*"download/"__ -rep _".7z*"__ -rep _"*files/"__ -rep _\x2528_\x28_ -rep _\x2529_\x29_ -rep _\x2520_\x20_ -rep _\x253B_\x3B_ -rep _\x252C_\x2C_ -write -yes>nul
to:
support\sfk filter -spat "temp\list.txt" ++"/davebaol/d2x-cios/releases/tag/" -!"vwii" -!"uwii" -rep _*"tag/"__ -rep _"\x22*"__ -write -yes>nul

and also change:
start %ModMiimin%/wait support\wget --output-document %CurrentcIOS%.zip --no-check-certificate -t 3 "https://github.com/davebaol/d2x-cios/releases/download/%DLcIOS%.7z"
to:
start /min /wait support\wget --output-document %CurrentcIOS%.zip --no-check-certificate -t 3 "https://github.com/davebaol/d2x-cios/releases/download/%DLcIOS%/%DLcIOS%.7z"

Unfortunately only the first page of releases here are listed in ModMii, I don't have time to investigate further right now but will try to eventually

in the meantime, if you extract the contents of a release into ModMii's Support folder it will get picked up

e.g. Support\More-cIOSs\d2x-v1-final\ciosmaps.xml, d2x-beta.bat, etc.

I'll give a try, thanks for the tip. B-)

Just some suggestions

maybe the successfully downloaded file in "temp" folder should be moved to a new folder named "cache"?
some files can be rearranged by folders. (e.g. temp/theme for mym, temp/wad for wad, temp/emu for emulators, temp/app for other homebrew channel app etc)
