Wouldn't it be possible to do a merged IOS like those in Hermes v4?
e.g. IOS249, base 57 merged with 37
That would bring as fast loading times AND all games out there would work with it. So there wouldn't be any need to switch between different IOSes ever again.
If I had any experience in coding I would start trying to program that right now! Imagine how amazing that would be! The ultimate cIOS that combines all the good in one
It doesn't work that way. There is a reason Hermes ditched the merged IOSes in v5, and that's because it's better that way. The Wii is designed so that you have multiple IOS slots for different IOSes with different feature sets. That's how it's supposed to work, which is why the cIOSes are now doing so as well. If there was "one IOS to rule them all" there would be no IOS slots at all and you would have a much more traditional firmware model. The slots are there for a reason and there is no point in reinventing the wheel. Yes it's confusing if you don't bother to read or understand what you are doing, but if you don't understand what you are doing you probably shouldn't be modding your own console in the first place. Learning + Understanding FTW.

yeah as I said i just copied the info from wiibrew wiki.hetfield said:IOS36 -> required by most homebrew and games = not needed, its already enabled with IOS236
IOS37 -> Required for music games and Monster Hunter Tri, WiiSpeak = until now this was mostly chosen in IOS250
IOS38 -> Enhanced DVD-R support, Microphones incl. hub for 2 mics. = until now standard choice for IOS249
IOS53 -> WiiFit Plus
IOS55 -> WiiSpeak, and several newer games that give error #002 without it
IOS56 -> used by Beatles Rock Band and Super Mario Galazy 2 ??? Super mario galaxy works fine with IOS249rev19[38 and 57]
IOS57 -> Enhanced USB Support, possibly ethernet support
IOS60 -> SDHC Support
IOS61 -> SDHC Support
IOS70 -> SDHC Support
IOS80 -> SDHC Support

It seems for USB loading all you need as a base is 57 and either 37 or 56

Because it is faster, loading SSBB took 20 seconds with 57 as base, and took 25-30 with others as baseTheShadowRunner said:From my testing, there is absolutely NO difference whatsoever, that's why i'm curious as to why this is still being said everywhere.. and thanks for your answer WiiBricker.
Well I never played Dual Layer Games via USB, but I really never noticed any speed differences.moosehunter said:Because it is faster, loading SSBB took 20 seconds with 57 as base, and took 25-30 with others as baseTheShadowRunner said:From my testing, there is absolutely NO difference whatsoever, that's why i'm curious as to why this is still being said everywhere.. and thanks for your answer WiiBricker.
I've also confirmed this with other games
Judging from that post, seems like IOS56 is the best lol.FIX94 said:I also never noticed a difference between IOS38 and IOS57. I tried out every game and every usb loader, but there was no loading speed difference. I'm currently using IOS56 base, because it looks like a newer and great alternative to IOS37.
@moosehunter:
I will test ssbb now

Thanks for your test results, very interesting.Dr. Clipper said:On the speed thing, there is a definite noticeable difference in load times for the Subspace Emissary of Brawl. It is not a myth. I did some tests with rev20 here showing some of my results. It seems 56 is just as fast as 57, and both 37 and 38 are slower.
Thus, my conclusion is that we should start recommending 56 for the 249 slot and forget about the others. It's actually safer to keep 250 as rev19 or earlier as it then remains protected from the current Nintendo updates (the new 250 won't survive as it's version is now 20 rather than 65535).
It will make no huge difference, but IOS56 seems to be stable, MHT and music games are working, and it's a bit faster then the other bases.WiiBricker said:It might be more interesting if other games than SSBB get tested too
