Region Change any Wii to 4.1, USA, Euro, Jap, KOR

Region Change any Wii to 4.1
USA, Euro, Jap, and Korean

Works with all wiis
Works with 4.2 wiis also, even the black ones.

Warning 4.3 wii, if you follow a guide other than my guide to softmod your wii, you need to remove the stubbed ios70. This is very important, simply install cIOS70-v6174.zip with a wadmanger



Requirments-
1 wii needing another region
Needs cIOS
Read- Softmod ANY wii if needed
Works with wanikoko's cIOS r14, r17, and base 38 cIOS
Does not work with base 57 cIOS.
IOS236 is installed in Step-3 of the above Softmod guide.


Wii Shop Channel users- If you use the wii shop channel and intend to change the region, you must first go into the wii shop and delete your shop account prior to the region change. If you do not wish to delete your shop account you can not change the region of the shop channel, in this case leave the shop channel setting set to your current region in ARC mod6. If you do not delete the shop acount, you will be unable to access it following the region change of the shop settings.



Download:
For online install-
ARCmod06.zip

For offline install-
ARC_mod06_offline4.1_all.part1.rar
ARC_mod06_offline4.1_all.part2.rar
password is QK.Mod
Extract the 2 part rar to sd:\
Your card should look like-
sd:\ios\update41 (needed for offline install)
sd:\apps\ARCmod06_Offline\boot.dol

Load HBC- launch ARCmod06_Offline
Select ios236- press A (or ios249 r14, r17 or if base 38 was used)
Read the WARNING- press 1

ARC mod has two parts-
Edit Region Settings:
This lets you change individual settings
and
System Menu 4.1 Installer:
This lets you set all settings to USA, Europe, Japan, or Korea.
And installs System Menu 4.1 for that region.

Online and offline install is supported.
ARC mod defaults to offline install if sd:\ios is present.

Use the wiimote, go down to-"system menu 4.1 installer"
Select "System Menu Region"
Change the region to USA, Europe, Japan, or Korea
Go down to "Auto set from System Menu Region" -Press A
"WARNING: AREA: SysMenu MISMATCH!" will appear above- this is normal

Go down to "Install System Menu 4.1" -Press A

WARNING: This could Brick your wii

WARNING: If you loss power, or pull the plug, your wii will probably brick

WARNING: Modchip users will need to reconfigure the region settings of their modchip, otherwise disks will not load from the disk channel.
