Hello guys,

I got stuck on zelda shad bug. So I tried to change the game save. I changed the usb loader gx save settings to partial trying to dump it to sd, I saw no file changes than I changed to full... The zelda booted but all my controllers do not respond anymore :-/ I restarted the console and no controller is working anymore.

I tried shutting it down, 15s, I tried re-syncing them via 15s at console health screen and controllers red buttons and nothing works.

How can I restore the controllers? Or reset everything?

HI! Many thanks for your fast response.

If I understood well, I will need a GC controller to access homebrew channel and try to revert this issue.
Probably the sync config was trashed or even the emunand, and it can't recover.
I will buy one GC controller and try this approach.
Thanks.

Hello.:)

Yes it is always a good Idea to have a Gamecube Controller at home when you handle around with Homebrew and that stuff.:)

By the way: Do you have PRIILOADER installed ?

What you can try is boot/reset the Wii a few times in a Row.For me it works "sometimes" to get instead the Homebrew Channel into the Wii Menu or the Safety + Health warning Screen (if you DO NOT disabled it in PRILOADER)
Then you also can sync your Wii Motion Controllers.:)

Thank you.:)

Hello.:)

Thank you for your reply and telling us your solution.:yay:
Great to hear now your Wii Controllers works finally.

As bonus you can use your Gamecube Controller also in Mario Kart Wii and many other Applications and VC Games and many more.
That was an absolute good investment.:D

Have fun with it and your Wii.
Thank you.:)

    I just googled and drag and drop seemed to be possible at the time

    idk, but in high school at least, I used my ipod as a portable HDD to store World of Warcraft game files on and play it on the school PCs when I was done with my work each class :lol:

    I finally got a proper torrenting vpn!

    Nice. What VPN? PIA?
  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:
    It's called AirVPN, it was highly recomended by fmhy
  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:
    It supports port forwarding as well!
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Nice. I use privado VPN, got it for free with one of my usenet providers. It sucks, doesn't support port forwarding so I have issues connecting to a lot of peers. But still prefer it over not using one

  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:
    I guess it's better than nothing. What's the advantage of Usenet?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @Plazorn, upsides to usenet - SSL encrypted so no vpn needed, it downloads from the usenet provider's servers and is not peer-to-peer, generally can download as fast as your internet/router/storage can possibly allow, usenet providers in different countries have different takedown policies a la DMCA, and if you have multiple providers you might be able to grab bits and pieces of a file from multiple providers in order to still get stuff that was removed from one (they generally don't remove all parts of the file, just enough to make it non-functional)
    +1
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Downsides is it does cost money, having multiple providers is useful as mentioned above but then you're paying more money, and you need NZB indexers (the usenet parallel to a torrent tracker) and the good ones also usually cost a small amount of money.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Oh yeah, also since it's not P2P there's no ratio to maintain or anything. If you wanna download 5TB a day or whatever, knock yourself out
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I generally prefer usenet over torrents, but I do like having torrents as a fallback option
  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:
    That's really interesting @Sicklyboy , I was always under the impression that usenet was slower than regular internet. Also the fact that you don't need any vpn for it to be secure.
  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:
    It seems like it would be less stressful, because you wouldn't have to worry about piracy trolls as much
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Yeah, like at the end of the day, with the few usenet providers and NZB indexers I'm paying for, I'm probably paying anually what a netflix sub would cost. But netflix doesn't have everything media related I want, let alone other stuff like games and software :D
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    But it's largely set it and forget it
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    On black friday and a bunch of other holidays you can usually find providers doing like $35/year sales on reddit. And the indexers are usually like $15-20 for a year and a half on sale
  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:
    You pay for the convenience at the end of the day
    +1
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I have I think 3 providers I'm currently paying for and 2 indexers. So probably around $110 a year if I had to guess in order to keep that setup going
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    But you certainly don't need to go that deep into it, you can do very well with a single provider and single indexer
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Yeah the convenience factor is unbeatable imo. Worth it to me
  • Plazorn @ Plazorn:
    thanks @Sicklyboy, Usenet makes more sense to me now.
