Hi guys, my cousin gave me his wii with preloaded games on hard drive, and has a wiiflow loader.. while checking out some of the games, i noticed MH tri is ot working, i did some digging around the net and it states that changing the IOS will do the trick but when i set it to 222 or 223 nothing happned, i googled more and states that Wiiflow 2.1 runs a stable MH tri.. but my problem is how to update the Wiiflow, my bro and i did a stupid thing, we though if we DL the 2.1 file for wiiflow and copy paste it to the folder in my HD everything will be upgraded but nothing change, hehehe we assumed to much, we though it will be like upgrading the DS, anyway is there a step by step guide? By the way my Wii CHannels are DISC CHANNEL, WIIFLOW, MII, FORECAST, PHOTO CHANNEL, and SHOPPING CHANNEL only. and my WIi is 4.2U korean to eng converted wii. thanks.
It doesn't have to be in 222 or 223. I have base 37 in 247, base 57 in 248 and base 56 in 249. You can use Wani's rev 20b installer (not tried 21 yet) to achieve this. Also, have you tried Wiiflow 2.2? I think current rev is 304, has a few fixes whcih should help you along
thanks for the kind reply, but honestly speaking, i dont know what are revs, IOS. how do i put revs? and recently i found out that mario galaxy is not working on my 1.1 wiiflow, bummer. ive been reading for almost a day, and still i cant get the geist of it. sorry

One day is not enough reading and gathering information. Take at least 4-5 days googling & read the sticky topics as somebody said, and keep on asking questions, one at a time, and you´ll start to understand.
There are a lot of noob-guides around the internet.
I am also a noob, but have been reading a lot lately. People have also been very helpful here, and now I am able to (un)install wads & backup loaders on my own. I have not updated my cios´s via ModMii yet, I have been a little afraid of this as I see people getting problems when they do it. As somebody said on this forum: if it ain´t broken, don´t fix it.

True, but this guy has a problem that does need fixing. Some cIOS's don't necessarily provide you with what you need which is why there are many many opinions on which is 'best'. Updating cIOS and Wiiflow isn't a massive problem, a few detailed instructions and he should be sorted. Some hands-on experience will give him the boost he needs, soon all will become clear

The quote "if it ait broken........" was aimed at my current situation, not at his. Just an advice for him to take one step forward at a time. =)
And it´s true that some hands-on experience will give him the needed boost. That is why I encouraged him to continue asking questions.
One thing that helped me in the past days, is to always uninstall(via wadmanager)/clean up as much as possible, before performing any operations. Starting from scratch makes it also easier following guides.
Totally agree with the uninstalling of wads via wad manager. Although, this can be dangerous for 'noobs' (hate that word) as I know a few people who deleted system menus this way. They thought it was deleting off the SD card (trying to avoid doing it via another app or PC)
thanks to sir bazamuffin(with the cool fulgor logo) and sir siliconmessiah, both ur advices are very helpfull and i will continue to search for possible fixes, if i can update my PSP and DS i can update this. hehehe, sir bazamuffin is right, with all you're advices ive can get ideas and sort out searches through forums. thanks a lot ill buzz you guys for udpates

yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done -

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer

Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one

Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version

TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -
