any chance of a guide for this? been out of the loop for a long time now...cheers

Download DIOS MIOS 2.0 wad from code.google.com/p/diosmios
Install WAD with a WAD Manager
put gamecube ISOs on USB in usb:/games/GAMEID/game.iso
 
After selecting the game and few clicks from DVD drive DM logo shows and after a second or two i get following messages (depending on a loader):
Fatal error apploader size is zero! - DML booter SVN r24
(*unreadable on my TV*) al error app_entry is not within apploader (*some more unreadable text*) - rest that I've tried

I am unable to format either USB HDD or Pendrive under Windows (Vista) to FAT32 32kb only to FAT32 Default cluster size if anyone could tell me how I'll be greatful.


/Edit - Found sollution, formatting the USB HDD to FAT32 32kb cluster helped (previously it was FAT32 64kb - didn't work). Pendrive couldn't have been formatted to FAT32 32kb only to FAT32 16kb - also didn't work. Error MSG could just say "Wrong cluster size - should be 32kb" instead of "apploader size".
 
I tried this DIOS MIOS 2.0.wad and i get black screens when i boot a game from USB...however SD works fine like it always did,kinda weird i dont know whats wrong :(
 
DM: Latest (2.0 Update 2)
Loader: DM Booter rev23 rev24, USB Loader GX rev1191, CFG USB Loader Mod
HDD: Toshiba USB 2.0 320gb FAT32 (works fine with Wii games), default cluster size
Pendrive: SanDisk Cruiser 2GB FAT32 (works fine with Wii games), default cluster size
Game: Harry Potter & Sorcerer's Stone (NTSC) (worked fine with DML 1.5 and previous)

After selecting the game and few clicks from DVD drive DM logo shows and after a second or two i get following messages (depending on a loader):
Fatal error apploader size is zero! - DML booter SVN r24
(*unreadable on my TV*) al error app_entry is not within apploader (*some more unreadable text*)

I am unable to format either USB HDD or Pendrive under Windows (Vista) to FAT32 32kb only to FAT32 Default cluster size if anyone could tell me how I'll be greatful.

/Edit - Out of curiosity I tried to run the same game from SD on DM 2.0 2 and I got the same message.

Yes 1) dont use vista lol
2) download easus partition mananger, its free, it'll do the job
 
Wow! now I can replace my WODE! :lol: THANKS Crediar!!!!! I will try this later!

btw... why is this not front paged? all these shitty rumors about the WiiU being "x10 better than X console" goes to the front page news, but not this one? :glare:

Wii backup manager allows you to format to FAT32 and select 32kb cluster size.

Does anyone else have a green bar at the bottom of Super Mario Sunshine with the latest DM revision?
 
So far I've tested:

Twilight Princess - Audio and Graphics all play fine no problems to report!
Wind Waker - Audio and Graphics all play fine no problems to report!
Super Mario Sunshine Audio and Graphics all play fine no problems to report other than the cut scenes seem pixelated like some one turned the resolution down lol I may just need to mess with the video settings! :P
Mario Golf - Audio and Graphics all play fine no problems to report!
Mario Kart Double Dash - It Runs Perfectly no problems to report! (Just Added!)

I have a ton of GCN games so I'll report back soon!
 
So the originally planned DIOS MIOS has finally been released huh? Im still using a WBFS formatted hard drive as I find no reason to format to FAT32 as of yet.

Do the Loaders like GX and CFG support the original DM
Dude WBFS is USELESS as the hard drive format. fat32 u can do anything on it. Put programs, movies, homebrew apps and plus wii and gamecube games. Even a guide:
http://gbatemp.net/t...-fat32-or-ntfs/

I'll get around to formatting when I have the time
 
Can't get it to work for me, it's completely breaking gamecube playback.

Wii is on 4.1E

Installed the wad like I would any other, but cannot get it to work.

Dios mios booter. Does not see the games at all, only have the option for boot dvd.
Usb loader GX, sees the games, but asks to copy to SD
Completely breaks gamecube playback. Wii is chipped, trying to launch either and original or copied cube game, they show in disc channel, black screen when booted with a single flash of the dvd light. Component or RGB scart the same results. Reinstall Rvl-mios v10, gamecube games work fine from disc channel.
 
super mario sunshine has a green bar at the bottom of the screen..luigis mansion works. Paper mario just black screens. Gonna go back to dml for now
 
Mario Sunshine gives me a small green bar at the bottom of the screen too, I imagine messing with the Video Settings may fix that tho. :)

Does the Map fix for Wind Waker work with DM? I haven't got the game to test. Thanks
