Hacking Can't play on my SD card?

[odja]

I know that my Wii is dead, my question is: How properly install IOS60 or CIOS60?

 

[kevenka]

hmm, not sure if there is a proper way except wadmanager

I know that my Wii is dead, my question is: How properly install IOS60 or CIOS60?

Run dop-IOS, scroll to IOS60, install the most recent version of IOS60 and say yes to patching the sig hash check.

Edit: If you have preloader installed beforehand, then this may corrupt your system menu, but fixing it is just a matter of reinstalling preloader.

 

[odja]

YES!!
Dear nabster92 this is my fault!! I don't do it :dop-IOS that i need before i try "repair". I panic when i see bad boot screen on WII, and i don't reinstal Preloader..Thanks Very Much!!!

Hi, I have another error that just poped up =(
Sometimes, when I try to load my games (such as my super nintendo games) it says this channel cannot be played ,or something like that, but does anyone know why?
Please and thanks for all you wii wizards

 

[Bladexdsl]

when that happens it means your playing a region game not supported on your wii like pal on ntsc. you need to use a program called: freethewads to make it region free. hope you know how to use dos

 

[kevenka]

Thanks Blade! I didn't know that... I thought pal meant play all region... But whatever >.<
Thanks again! I'll look that up and check how to use it. Thanks again!

arghhh, been experimenting with freethewads and it doesn't seem to work on some game files (Mainly, the ones I can't play. Here's a pic of what happens to one of the ones I tried to free:

As always, every input has been appreciated! I feel like I am almost done trying to get these wads to work...Just a bit more work. Please help! and thanks!

rename the wad to something like crystal.wad

type freethewads.exe etc crystal.wad

Just want to ask, and not open the own topic, when i update to 4,1 and use the cios 60 can i install a wad onto the wii, then coppy the chanel to the sd card. And after that uninstall the wad anbd still play it from the sd?

NO, if the channel is on the SD uninstall is not possible

 

[minos55]

so if i copy it to the sd it still has to stay on the wii? Where is the point in the sd menu then if you still have to have it on the wii and use the space on the wii for it?

 

[kevenka]

need some punctuation marks to make that sentence to make more sense, but I think you shouldn't "copy" but rather "move" it if you want to get it off the wii and into the SD card and vice versa

(P.S. I also tried the renaming thing and it doesn't work

I am so confused...) It just says "cannot open file freethewads"... Do you think I got an outdated freethewads exe program?) It works on some...but not all...

 

[kevenka]

HAha, nice grammer fixation. If you want to get it off the SD, I suppose you can probably delete it from the wii channel. Then move it from the SD card into the wii and then delete the file to completely get rid of it.
Also, I was able to get it to work! The freethewads! I looked up a different set of instructions and downloaded the one on gbatemp. It told me to drag it instead of typing so...that may have helped or it could've have just better a better version of the patch. Either way, I am a happy man. Thanks everyone for your kind help!

Now my last experiment is....will I have to delete and reinstall all my wads... =(

sorry for my english

I meant if i for example move my instaled wad from the wii to the sd, will that free up the room that the wad took on the wii?
