    Possible to change system region after softmod?

    Thanks for the confirmation. For now, I'll try with the Japanese OS and if I have issues, I'll check into changing to North America region.

    Possible to change system region after softmod?

    Thanks for the reply, but maybe my explanation wasn't completely clear. For example, I am familiar that with GX Loader you should be able to play games from any region. However, in the past I seemed to have some issues with crashing / games not loading from North America region on a Japanese...

    Possible to change system region after softmod?

    Hi everyone! I just acquired a Wii in Japan that's on firmware version 4.3J. I have no concerns about the standard soft mod process, but I think in the past I had an issue where a Japanese wii using GX Loader was frequently having issues crashing when trying to load NA games, but Japanese would...

    Hardware Homebrew GCN GCHD MK II Causing issues with Swiss Booting.

    I know this is old, but I was having this same exact problem. I thought it was something about the USB-C power conversion I was doing. I tested with a stock GC power supply and had the same problem still. Then I unplugged the GCHD MK-II and plugged in official GC component cables instead and...

    GCN Problem: Intermittent Swiss access with Picoboot + USB-C power

    Well, I just plugged in a stock gamecube power supply and it did boot swiss the first time. That said, it didn't boot swiss after that for about 20 times and went to the default GC menu. Just to be clear, this is using swiss as ipl.dol to boot directly to swiss - no pressing controller buttons...

    GCN Problem: Intermittent Swiss access with Picoboot + USB-C power

    I took a picture of the underside of the board but didn’t see anything unusual. As far as under the caps themselves, they’re smd caps, so I’d have to remove them anyway. If I’d have to remove them, I’d probably just replace them at the same time.

    GCN Problem: Intermittent Swiss access with Picoboot + USB-C power

    So, what I did for the usb-c cable is cut off the connector from the original GC power supply (with several inches of the original power wire attached) and then connected that to the usb-c trigger/female plug. The trigger was set to 12v. Before I plugged it into the console, I did verify I was...

    GCN Problem: Intermittent Swiss access with Picoboot + USB-C power

    I've had my GC modded with a picoboot for quite a while with no issues. I'm using an SD2SP2 loaded with Swiss & games. Normally I leave the default boot option as the Gamecube system menu/disc drive and "A" button to load Swiss at boot. The other day I converted my stock gamecube power adapter...

    Japanese N3DS crashing on select US/ENG games when loading

    I've got a Japanese N3DS that I just recently installed CFW in the original Japanese language. I installed several of my US/ENG 3DS cia's (ripped from my own carts) and discovered 3 of them crash when I load them. Then I learned about the Luma region/language changing app. So I changed the...

    Hacking Run Mocha after installing CBHC?

    I don't have interest in autobooting Mocha so that's fine. I just want to temporarily use it so I can do those specific things. I don't mind running it each time as needed. Which version should I use? I found 4 different ones in the app store: Mocha CFW + FSHax Mocha CFW 0.2 Mocha CFW_fat32 0.2...

    Hacking Run Mocha after installing CBHC?

    As a complete Wii U modding noob, a couple of weeks ago I did the CBHC mod and it worked out great. Everything is going well, but I'm finding there are a couple things I'd like to do that it seems work better with Mocha. 1. Preventing Wii U system updates...

    Homebrew Homebrew launcher + Luma updater crash on Luma v7.0.5 new install

    I used the video below. I should've used something else? Is what I did "reversible" to install something more appropriate?

    Homebrew Homebrew launcher + Luma updater crash on Luma v7.0.5 new install

    First of all, thanks in advance for any advice because this is my first attempt at this so I don't exactly know what I'm doing. Tonight, I installed CFW on my Japanese 11.3.0 firmware New 3DS XL. For the most part, I think it went correctly. After all is said and done, I seem to be getting an...

    Hacking USB Loader GX + VWii problem

    I should say I've been running everything of SD card for now. I discovered on Thursday night the external hard drive I was using with USB Loader GX on my Wii was not being read by the Wii U. Then I learned about requiring a Y adapter so I ordered one off Amazon the other day and it should be...

    Hacking USB Loader GX + VWii problem

    I hadn't gotten around to trying to reset all settings. However, I don't recall seeing an option like that in the Nintendont stand-alone launcher... It's just weird because the problem was happening regardless of if I used USB Loader GX or Nintendont by itself. My system is a North America NTSC...

    Hacking USB Loader GX + VWii problem

    I followed this video exactly for Wii U. I downloaded the vWii cIOS apps and Nintendont from the links below. http://www.mediafire.com/download/n2zl8v5kn288j9d/vWii_cIOS_apps_20131218.zip https://code.google.com/p/nintendon-t/

    Hacking USB Loader GX + VWii problem

    I successfully performed the softmod of adding the homebrew channel to my vwii on my Wii U the other night. I was then able to run the Nintendont app and get my gamecube backups working. I softmodded my Wii before and had USB Loader GX running on that with my Wii and GC games just fine. I...

    Hardware How often do you break the 3d effect?

    I've primarily resorted to turning up the 3D during longer dialog sequences and cutscenes and turning it off the rest of the time. I like the free look now with the controller, but it's a major pain with 3D on.
