Hacking Going to hack my first Wii, need help

[haddad]

K its done, 1 question, do I need to do the USB-Loader setup if I am using the games for a Usb Flash Drive?

 

[haddad]

And also I put everything into my sd card, and I went to Wii > Wii Managment > Save Data > Wii > SD Card and I just see empty blocks, why?

 

[fattest]

use the SD card button in the main menu

edit: misread, thought you wanted to load channels off the sd card

 

[XFlak]

no, he's on 3.4 and using bannerbomb v1, he is launching it the correct way, the most likely reason is an incompatible sd card. There are also other varations of bannerbomb v1 u can download, the ModMii guide tells you where to get them for the odd few ppl that the default variation does work right away. But every Wii I've ever tried it on works on the first try, so chances are more likely its the sd card.

K I got the homebrew channel installed and I am in BootMii, I am at the part where it says

Press the power button on the wii 3 times to get to the last option

Its not working, I am still on the first option on the left =(

--NVM I fixed i---

K guy, i need help please. I just finished installing all the wads I needed, and I got to this part

This is a forwarder channel that will load the first file it finds from the following list:

SD:/apps/usbloader/boot.dol
USB:/apps/usbloader/boot.dol
SD:/apps/usb-loader/boot.dol
USB:/apps/usb-loader/boot.dol
SD:/apps/usbloader_cfg/boot.dol
USB:/apps/usbloader_cfg/boot.dol
SD:/apps/WiiFlow/boot.dol
USB:/apps/WiiFlow/boot.dol
SD:/apps/usbloader_gx/boot.dol
USB:/apps/usbloader_gx/boot.dol
Note: IOS58 is required and it can launch files off an SD Card, a FAT32 Hard Drive
and/or an NTFS Hard Drive. It also supports meta.xml arguments and is able to
launch apps with direct hardware access.
You should always have at least one forwarder channel installed on your Wii,
that way, in the event of accidental update, you will be able to rehack your Wii without relying on a disc based exploit

Note: Whenever you install a new System Menu, Priiloader is uninstalled. So be sure to reinstall it afterwards (especially if you do not have bootmii as boot2)

I dont know what that means, do I go to

that will just install a channel that loads the boot.dol in any one of the paths listed (in order)
You can use it to load a usb loader without going through the homebrew channel, and it will also give you an easy way to rehack your wii if you accidentally update

But do I have to do anything here after I install all the wads?????

 

[unnkown95]

i would update to 4.3, rent lego indiana jones then use that guide to mod it it takes 2 minutes literraly

Those wads are shortcuts to the selected homebrew of choice...
Think of it as a shortcut folder in windows.

Edit: modding a wii is really simple, just read thoroughly.

Omg THANK YOU ALL GBATemp and Esspically XFLaX

One more thing, my freind when he loads up his backup games, he has a loader just like CoverFlow, it looks much nicer then the loader that I am using now. How can I get that? And how can I delete the USB Loader I got now?

 

[haddad]

Anyone know how I should install this and remove the old one?

 

[haddad]

Bump..... Help......................

 

[person66]

its called wiiflow, look in the backup loader section, it's stickied

EDIT:

why would he do that? It makes no sense. It's pointless to update to 4.3, all it does is remove bannerbomb. So why would you want to pay to rent a game and use it to hack the wii when it can already be hacked for free?

 

[haddad]

k I dont want that anymore...

Cant I just add image's to the backup wii's I am using now? Cuz currently for all my games, it says "No Image" but I can still click on it.

How do I add an image to each of my games?

 

[person66]

what usb loader are you using, usually in the settings there should be something that lets you download missing covers

I am using the one that came with the ModMii default loader

--EDIT--

I am using the CFG USB Loader and I tried the Download Image option and it says "Error: Invalid PNG Image!"

--EDIT2--

NVM Guys! I fixed it

 

[gloweyjoey]

alternately, you can download the images from wiitdb.com and put them in the covers folder on your SD card.

Glad you fixed it, although you've probably guessed by now USUALLY when it state 'invalid PNG Image' it means that the required picture doesn't exist on the download server (whether it's a 3d/Full cover/front/back etc)

SOMETIMES you may be lucky enough to have a different country with the required picture (say you trying to get the '3D (U)' version but only the '3D (E)' version exists), then you can download it direct from http://wiitdb.com/ ,Rename it to the required character code of the game for the missing one, & save it onto the SD card into the approriate folder

wat is ModMii?

There's a button in the top right corner called "search." How about using that? Or google

People are very confused at hacking first, then once they do they will figure out whats what okay? so show a little help.
