Hacking cIOSCORP v3.5 Release!

[urherenow]

by the way... Medieval Games works just fine. The tester(s) must have had a bad burn or dump or something. I used a dump from ProCiSiON
US version on a US Wii.

read the readme...it needs cios249.

 

[kurosaki00]

ooh thank you

Installed cioscorp v3.4 with a 256 mb SD card. Is 1 gb SD card really necessary?

 

[urherenow]

the zipped file is like 59MB. If it fits on your SD card unzipped then you should be ok.

 

[Whats85]

See no problems because files are about 60 mb. But reading the readme it says:

What is needed (other than this package):
- A Nintendo Wii (to modify)
- A non-SDHC Card with heaps of free space (preferably a blank 1GB
or 2GB card)
- Ability to run Wii homebrew (e.g. Homebrew Channel installed)
- waninkoko's cIOS249 installed, to run the installer

Have no reason to install 3.5 now since all my games are working. I'll give it a try when necessary.

will this work with me still being on Sysmenu 3.2? sorry for the n00b question

 

[Skizzo]

Is it necessary to do a complete install if there are only a few particular games I want to be able to run from the disc channel? Is a partial install even possible?

most definitely possible.

all cioscorp is a modified IOS's
you can install individual IOS's with WAD manager, just get them out of the cioscorp folder.

find what IOS is used by the game you want to play and what IOS your running System menu is running on.
for example, super smash bros brawl runs off IOS36.
if im on 4.2, i would just install the cIOS70 that comes with cioscorp so the system menu can read the backup, then install the cIOS36 that comes so the games can function.

Thanks xzxero. I hadn't grabbed the package before asking, but now that I've got it, I see what you mean. I'm thinking of finally trying out some of the DLC for the 'guitar games'. I know the readme talks about RawkSD but do you know if this will allow me to use any of the DLC stuff, which also requires the game to be loaded from the disc channel, or is that fall into the same category as RawkSD? I'm still on 3.3U (v2 I believe but I'm not positive - how do I determine that?).

I have a softmodded wii with 4.2 fw on a PAL console, I've ofc installed bootmii, used trucha bug restorer and installed HBC.
I have cIOS38 rev14 installed.

If I've understood everything correctly, the only thing I have to do is to install this package?
Or do I have to remove anything or take any special precautions before attempting to install this?

I just want to be on the safe side since I bought my wii a week ago and bootmii refused to install on boot2.

Yes, it will. Since there are no stub IOS's used.

First of all if you can't have Bootmii as Boot 2 at least put it as an IOS, with that also install Preloader. However the readme at the start says you must install CIOSCORP before installing 4.2x as a wad file, so I'm not particularly sure if you can install CIOSCORP, with a 4.2x Firmware...

you can install it on 4.2
it justs says to install it before on region changed korean wii's to prevent to #003 error

hey thx! you will probs hate me but just for future reference (cue the n00b question) what do you mean with stub IOS's not being used?

If I have yet to upgrade to 4.2, should I upgrade first then install cIOSCORP 3.5, or will installing cIOSCORP 3.5 essentially upgrade me to 4.2? Thanks in advance

Oh, right, I have installed bootmii as IOS, forgot to mention that.
And you beat me to it xzxero, I interpreted the readme as the 4.2x wad install only necessary on region changed wiis aswell.
I just wanted confirmation on my assumptions ^^

I'll install preloader, make a nand dump and give it a go later on then

Thanks for the help.
