Hacking DIOS MIOS (Lite)

[kirbymaster101]

Do we always must "patch" the games using DiscEx or can we simply put the iso file under the games folder?

You can rename it to game.iso and put it in /games/GAMEID/game.iso

However DiscEx-c can compress games, and GCReEx -x can make them run faster

how do you use gcReex-x to make them run faster and is the sys folder useless then

Never mind

EDIT: So this does work with the other USB slot right? (Port 1)

Download GCReEX, extract it, put your iso in the same folder as it, open a command prompt in that window, type "GCReEx.exe -x " without the quotes or carrots

All the folders are needed i believe. It makes it faster because they are aligned to 64k which allows for faster reads.

Does the prompt keep closing on you? I've always done it this way (on Windows 7):
1. Find the folder that gcreex is located in.
2. Hold shift, and right-click the folder. Click "open command window here" and the prompt will open.
3. The file location should be there. All you need to do now is type in this:

gcreex.exe -x GAME.iso

GAME.iso is whatever game file you have. So for example, Sonic Adventure DX might be:

gcreex.exe -x h-sadx.gcm

If it's a gcm, just type gcm instead of iso. Press enter and the files will extract themselves.

So USB Loader GX 3.0 is asking me if I want to copy my gamecube game to SD why the hell would I want it to do that when I have DIOS MIOS 2.0.wad installed not the lite version! seriously what the heck am I doing wrong? I get the DIOS MIOS screen to show up fine but it comes up with some apploader error! any one lend me some time to help me figure this out real quick! Thanks. Also the Wii will ask me for a disc when as far as I knew the whole point to using DIOS MIOS 2.0 was to run the games from the Hard Drive not the disc!


The Error Message I get when the Dios Mios screen pops up is: "Fatal Loader App Size is Zero"

uhm because 3.0 was made before Dios mios was release, why the hell would they let you do something that wasnt possible at the time? Download the latest svn version from Cyan a few pages back, then set your path to usb in custom paths, then it will work.

Cmd doesnt support spaces right, so I would have to rename all my isos

I get a "fatal error apploader size is zero!" error while trying to run SSBM.
Does anyone know what's going on?

Also the Wii will ask me for a disc when as far as I knew the whole point to using DIOS MIOS 2.0 was to run the games from the Hard Drive not the disc!


The Error Message I get when the Dios Mios screen pops up is: "Fatal Loader App Size is Zero"

To fix the "Fatal error apploader size is zero!", just put a game in the drive

And loading from USB has nothing to do with "not having a disc inserted". just do what it asked you, insert one and profit USB loading.

What do I do after I use GCReEx. I got a root and sys folder

Drag the GAMEID folder to your "games" folder on your hdd. Basically the same as a DiscEX folder.

Don't change the GAMEID. Everything in the root and sys folders are exactly the same as in the iso. The difference is that all the files are now extracted. When you run gcreex, you should get two results: the original iso/gcm file should still be there, and you now have a GAMEID folder. The GAMEID folder is dragged to your "games" folder on the hdd. When you use DM(L) booter, the games display without their GAMEIDs and instead use their original titles.

Thank you so much for answering my questions but CAN I change the GAMEID if I want to? Like will changing the gameid make programs like usblaoder gx not read them or something?

Also is compatibilty the same with DIOS MIOS?
