Greetings, all. I've been struggling for a while to get WiiFlow to run games and at this point I don't know where the issue could be. I've tried following countless tutorials, even doing a SysCheck and running it through ModMii. A friend of mine has successfully been able to run the .wbfs files that I'm trying out, so I don't think that those are the issue. I can't post links on account of this account being new, but the problem I get is exactly the same as the one in the video Play Wii Games from SD Card in 2021 - Wii Soft Modding - Install Homebrew - d2x cIOs - WiiFlow by Retro Nerd at around 12:42, and despite following the tutorial I could not solve it. The files are correctly located in a folder named wbfs at the root of my SD, and I've made sure to format it to FAT32 (and in fact most other apps installed on my SD are working fine). Here are the SysCheck results before and after following the ModMii procedure: Thanks very much in advance for anybody who is able to help me solve it P.S: The main tutorials that I followed were Ultimate USB Loader GX Guide 2021+ (Play ISO Backups) by AntonRetro and How to Play Downloaded Wii Games from SD Card! [Wii & Wiiu] (WiiFlow Tutorial 2023) by FunkyScott47, in case it is of any help to know. I tried to get GX working first but WiiFlow is better due to my USB drive not working correctly.

To preface, I was one of the people that tried to help Rii Shop in January. However, it didn't work out. The code was a mess and did not work properly, the beta was released prior to making downloads properly work, and it made press headlines too...

What it says on the title. I want to extract the Metal Gear 2 rom from the VC WAD I have, but after unpacking and trying all the files in blueMSX, none of them seem to boot on it/be like a MSX rom. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong, if I need a special program, or it's just that they can't be extracted at the moment.

Any help or info would be great.

EDIT: Nevermind. Figured out how to do it!

For extract the rom file of MSX/MSX2 Wii VC WADs, you need to extract the WAD with a WAD unpacker tool, then extract the 00000005.app file with an U8 Tool and you'll get the rom, as described here:

* SLOT1.ROM is the rom if it is a MSX game
* MEGAROM.ROM is the rom if it is a MSX2 game
