I'm thinking of buying a 1tb drive today for dios mios. Can I partition the drive as a full 1tb or do I have to break it up? Thanks.

Oh ok thanks. I had read that wii hdds had to be broken up into 500gb partitions. I'm gonna format the full 1tb into fat 32 32kb clusters.

Using WiiFlow Mod r506, IOS249 base 56 v6, and Dios Mios v2.0. External HDD is a Samsung Spinpoint M2 320gb. Wii game in the disc drive.

Working:
Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
Resident Evil 1
Resident Evil 2
Resident Evil 3: Nemesis
Resident Evil 4
Resident Evil: Code Veronica
Super Mario Sunshine
Super Monkey Ball 2
Super Smash Bros. Melee
The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
Viewtiful Joe
Wave Race: Blue Storm (No music during races, works in the audio options)
Battalion Wars
F-Zero GX
Kirby Air Ride
Mario Kart: Double Dash!
Mario Party 4
Mario Party 7
Metroid Prime (Must be run uncompressed)
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (Must be run uncompressed)

Not Working:
Metroid Prime (Hangs at Dios Mios screen)
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (Hangs at Dios Mios screen)

I also left Super Mario Sunshine paused for 20 minutes and had no problems. I think I remember reading that some hard drives have a feature called spindown and that if you download their software you might be able to turn it off.

Can someone confirm that the "Final_Fantasy_Crystal_Chronicles_PAL_MULTI_GCN-CUBESOFT" release is not working on the current version? It's listed as working without issues on the Compatibility List and yet I'm Black Screen'ing no matter what I do. Oh, and while I'm here...

Phantasy Star Online I & II Plus [NTSC] - NOT WORKING (Grey screen on boot)
Star Wars: Rouge Squadron 3 - Rebel Strike [PAL] - Perfect
I can confirm "Final_Fantasy_Crystal_Chronicles_PAL_MULTI_GCN-CUBESOFT" release doesn't work.
But Instead "Final_Fantasy_PAL_MULTi5_NGC_WORKING_iNTERNAL_For_Wii-OneUp" release loads just fine!

It's happening the same thing with me.

I can only load GC games using usb loader gx and cfg loader.
Usb loader gx ftw anyway!

I figured out why after reading the .nfo - CUBESOFT's release is trimmed while iNTERNAL is a full rip, that's where the incompatibility stems from. Thanks for the tip-off, I'll look around for the iNTERNAL release.

By the way,

Can someone explain how to load cheats?
I've tried it on both dios-mios loader and cfg usb loader but they don't seem to activate.

Dios Mios 2.0 compatibility list:
(All games launched with DML Booter r22 on real nand. All games are NTSC using component cables.)

You're doing something wrong. The controller is locked during loading times. If your USB drive is slow you will get slow loading times. I would try formatting to 32k clusters if you haven't already. Sonic adventure 2 battle worked great for me, i just had to let it load

The game actually loads and continues to work despite my lack of input, so that can't be true. The only thing that doesn't work is my controller (Which is in proper working order). So loading time isn't my issue.


Did you ever get this issue resolved? I'm having the same problem. Games are loaded, but I can't press start to actually get farther than the start screens

Thanks for posting. I've had the same problem with MP2. Are you using the NTSC versions?

You must run them uncompressed, I have edited my post. They are NTSC but all the PAL games I have tried to run can be fixed by forcing ntsc.

I don't think we need a poll. just few comments will do :)
High chance the first one will be used for the dark channel
;)

Not sure about Prime, but Prime 2: Echoes PAL works perfectly fine, including the Multiplayer part. Make sure that your releases are not trimmed.

By the way, when listing issues, do mention the region.
