1) What is better to use Flux paste or solder rods?
2) Is this going to be hard with no previous knowledge or experience?
3) Would you recommend a magnifying lens or no?
4) Where is the best place to position the WiiKey?
5) In what order do I solder (flux> lay wire on chip> then move soldering iron to the flux)?
6) Does it matter if the wires are long, or are shorter wires better?
7) Does RadioShack have the small Philips screwdriver needed to open the Wii?
8) What is the best method of holding the WiiKey in place?
9) Can you rap the electric tape around the bare wire or can the tape not physically touch the bare wire?
10) What are the best type and brand of DVDs to use?
11) What do I do after I soldered the WiiKey?
12) Where can I download these applications and iso's for the required stuff (like 1.9g and config disk)?

--Thanks for the answers

    like i searched all folders
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    are you using haxchi, tiramisu or aroma?
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    no, I'm asking which one of them you are using
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    in that case, there is no such thing as homebrew launcher for aroma
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    you have to launch your homebrews directly from the wii u menu
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    there is a plugin that display them on the wii u menu, pretty sure it is enabled by default
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    so like it doesnt exist
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    yeah
    ?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    it doesn't exist, at least not for aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    ohhhhh
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    on tiramisu you can access it by opening mii maker
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    okay
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    I don't have a wii u anymore to test it myself, but if homebrews are not visible on the wii u menu I think you can press L + R + minus to open the plugin menu, there should be an option called "homebrews on wii u menu" or something similar
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    nope
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    it is L+dpad down+ select
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    but homebrew is appearing in the home menu btw
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    yes, now I remember it
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    then it is working, I also don't like that they did this but it is the only option you have if you are using aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
    i just didint know the homebrew launcher didint exist in aroma
  • crafthp434 @ crafthp434:
