Hacking Best Way to Mod Any Wii: ModMii for Windows: Official Support Thread

[XFlak]

Can u confirm 6.6.3 works for you? And can you provide more info, like a video or screenshot of the issue?

 

[Zorg07]

It's working for me, and where it's crashing things haven't really changed. U sure 6.6.3 was working for you? Your issue seems related to installing neek btw, it should be able to build you an emunand if you choose just that option.

Does this neek2o download link work for you?
http://ufpr.dl.sourceforge.net/project/neek2o/neek2o-rev96.zip

Do you have the zip saved to your ModMii folder? Or ModMii's temp\neek2o folder?

Try manually saving that zip you download from the link above to <ModMii directory>\temp\neek2o\neek2o-rev96.zip and try again

Do you have a <ModMii directory>\temp\7zalog.txt file? What does it say?

If you want to go the extra mile, you could open Support\ModMii.bat and go to around line 24320 and start adding extra lines with just the "pause" command to help determine which line specifically is causing the crash. Testing will go faster if you just run ModMii to install neek and not build neek plus an emunand.

I did what he told me, and it was the same result, the window keeps closing the same, as I showed in my video. In the previous version this did not happen to me.

If you can help me help you that would be great. So if you can answer the questions you skipped that would be a great start.

If you have discord we can chat there. Maybe you would even prefer I remote into your PC and investigate directly, that's cool too if you want

Hi. I upgraded my wii using the syscheck option. However, now I have two Homebrew channel tiles into the home screen. How can I remove one of them? I also have an old forwarder to cfg usb loader, how can it be removed? Many thanks in advance.

Simply go to data management within the Wii's official settings menu, navigate your installed channels, and delete any you don't want

I think I discovered the issue with the help of someone else having similar problems. And it has to do with your Spanish windows setting.

Simple fix, you can manually apply the fix until I push another update

edit and replace:

support\sfk filter -quiet "temp\temp.txt" -rep _*" [Version "__ -rep _"."*__ -rep _"]"__ -write -yes

with:

support\sfk filter -quiet "temp\temp.txt" -rep _*" "__ -rep _"."*__ -rep _"]"__ -write -yes

this line appears twice in Support\ModMii.bat

I confirm that the fix worked for me too. I had the exact same issue of auto closing modmii 7.0.0, I use Brazilian Portuguese Windows settings.

thank you very much!

 

[XFlak]

Awesome, I'll give it a bit more time to see if any other bugs creep up before pushing an update later this month

So far there are 2, the other has to do with French syscheck reports... maybe in the future I need to recruit more testers with non-English set ups!

I don't understand this very well friend, could you explain more in detail. I would really appreciate it, sorry for answering very late. Thank you

Look inside modmii's support folder, inside there is a modmii.bat file, open this is notepad or notepad++ or any text editing program. Then search for the text from the 1st codeblock from my post above, and replace it with the second codeblock. The old line appears twice in modmii.bat, replace both.

If this is too complicated don't worry it won't be too long before I push a bugfix update.

Thank you, thank you very much, I can confirm that it now works on my Windows 11, here is a test video.

i followed the Modmii wizzard, installed it all the way. Reformated my usb harddrive, 1 partition/mbr/fat32. Put on a game with Wii backupmanager. Used different usb loaders, but nothing. They all start with the game info and after hitting start, black screen and eventualy an eject error. End of story

 

[XFlak]

What game? Was it just one? Perhaps it's a bad rip, maybe try ripping one of your original disks.

Which wizard did you use? Perhaps share a Syscheck so we can confirm you followed it properly: https://gbatemp.net/threads/posting-a-system-check.300279/

I assume it's same issue he was having here.

 

[XFlak]

Ah, and it looks like he was provided some decent advice to partition the hdd with fat32 first (or just try 100% fat32) and he abandoned the thread just to repost here but providing even less relevant info this time, lol

Exactly, i posted that here to save you the headache..

 

[impeeza]

even there is a thread about using 4TB disk on Wii which is an advice and tutorial on how to format FAT32 a big disk.

 

[pkers]

So, in the first thread things went wrong totaly due to missunderstanding on my part. But i started again with the Modmii guide, did everything that was advised in the guide, and still nothing.
The first thing you see on this page is the question if it worked, yes or no, and why not and did you leave a reply. And so i did.

@XFlak I have a question because the syscheck report gives me this name, from cios 253 with ios base 58 that has a fakemote, because it doesn't show me as 252, I would like you to help me. Thank you
What could I do to show me the indication as in slot 252, I'm using syscheck modmii edition, is that why?

Edit: I think it's because of the revision that I installed, which was 65535, and from what I understand there is no difference with respect to rev 21011, the operation is the same, only that the older one protects it against official updates, I apologize if it meleste friend.

 

[godreborn]

Does slot really matter? You should be able to use any cios, even individually by game. It's just the default one is 249.

No, these are cios with a fakemote module, they allow you to use ps3 or ps4 controllers in wii games, that's why I put it in other slots when I use it, but don't worry, I already solved my problem, @XFlak doesn't need to help me. Thank you
