Are there any alternative Gecko OS forwarders for vWii? The one available (with the gecko animal animation and there Bob Marley music) crashes the Wii U if you happen to switch to it using left or right on the system menu.

If the forwarder's ID starts with one of these letter E, F, J, L, M, N, P, Q and maybe X, use a Wad editor to change the TitleID, and it will launch in 16:9 (otehrwise it will run in 4:3), without the need to go to HBC [Note by Cyan].

Is it safe to use CustomizeMii 3.11 to do this, just by opening the forwarder wad via source button, selecting options tab, changing the title id field from, say, FCEU to ACEU and then saving the wad? I don't want to mess up my vWii setup over a forwarder channel... but loading in 4:3 sucks.

Yes, its safe! Just make sure you are not using a SYSTEM ID you are good to go to using W...

does no one have a working gensplus gx forwarder that works for vWii on SD?

I use these and they work in 16:9, and they are also compatible with 3TB drives.

I need help guys. I need a WiiMC and Wii64 vWii forwarder that works with 3TB drives. I'm using Mastershoes V14 wads that work perfectly fine on a 3TB for a Wii, but they do not work at all once converted to vWii with Convert2vWii. Can anybody help? I really need these forwarders working for a 3TB drive.

I designed this GameCube channel forwarder for USB GX vWii quite a few months ago but I'm only getting around to sharing this now as I've had a few requests on YouTube to do so.

As I use USB GX for accessing my GCN collection I wanted to have a GameCube channel forwarder for this purpose. I looked around online and all the GCN styled forwarders I could find featured questionable graphic design combined with naff animations, they also all had issues with the 'official' GameCube intro - ie far too choppy, low res or either just froze my Wii U vWii - which isn't ideal. As I'm a graphic designer by trade I decided to put a little effort in and knocked up one for myself.

I used CustomizeMii and the USB GX-UNEO vWii as the base WAD so credit goes to the guys who designed those and obviously credit goes to Nintendo for the GCN logo, sound and animation.

Guys, some help with something very simple actually:
How do I change a forwarder from launching in 16:9 to launching in 4:3? I want to "convert" the retroarch forwarder to launch in 4:3 (by the way, can somebody confirm if it is indeed launching in 16:9 before I try to solve something that is working? :)
Thanks.

I don't suppose anyone could re-upload these files? I'd just about kill for a working gensplus forwarder...
