hey guys, ive been looking for a simple straight forward guide on how to get stuff going, i saw this on another site n wanted to ask here if its any gd and if its up to date etc
(was probably taken from here to begin with =P)
How It works:: Well the Wii System Menu currently runs on IOS30 (for all those who understand IOS). Homebrew runs on IOS35, and basically what you are going to do today is to install a Custom IOS36 into IOS249 (Won't effect your wii)
Also make sure that the Internet24 is disabled as this can automatically update your wii and may undo all the hard work you have done
Okay, lets begin.
You need:
Homebrew Channel
SD Card
Computer With DVD-R Burner
DVD-Rs (The higher quality the better)
Wii (Duh)
ImgBurn
Original copy of zelda
Link below for apps
STEP 1 Set the files
1. Copy the CONTENTS of the folder Copy the CONTENTS to ROOT to the ROOT of the SD Card
2. There is an ImgBurn Installer there if you want it
STEP 2 Install cIOS36 Rev7
In this step we install cIOS36 Rev7
Step 1: Open the Homebrew Channel
Step 2: Click on the App labeled "Apps/cIOS Rev7/boot.dol" and then click Load
Step 3: Read the Disclaimer and Agree or Disagree
Step 4: Select WAD INSTALL
Step 5: Once it is done, select the option to restart your Wii
Step 6: You're done!
STEP 3 Install DVDx
Any DVDx installed must be uninstalled before preceding.
Step 1: Open The Homebrew Channel
Step 2: Select the app labeled "Apps/DVDx/boot.dol", and hit load
2a. Select "Advanced Install"
2b. For IOS, select 249 (IOS249) (You have to use the D-Pad to select 249)
2c. Hit Install
Your Done Installing DVDx
STEP 4 Install Backup Loader 0.3
In this step you will install a Channel called the Backup Launcher 0.3 GAMMA Channel
Step 1: Open The Homebrew Channel
Step 2: Select the app labeled "Apps/WADManager1.3/boot.dol", and hit load
Step 3: Read the Disclaimer and Agree or Disagree
Step 4: Hit A
Step 5: Select Backup Launcher 0.3 Gamma:
NOTE: ONLY NTSC HAS BEEN TESTED; IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A NON-WORKING CHANNEL, DELETE IT AND INSTALL THE CORRECT ONE
NTSC - US Wiis
PAL - European, African and some Asian Wiis
JAP - Japanese and some Asian Wiis
RegionFrii - Region Free (Works on any Wii)
Step 6: Hit A when it asks you if you're sure you want to install it
It will Install and bring you back to the list
Step 7: Hit the Home button to restart your Wii
You should have a new channel...The Backup Launcher 0.3 Gamma Channel
STEP 5 Make and Run Games
I will teach you how to make and run games
if you have an iso that is 4.37GB it is UNPATCHED (1:1) and if it is 3.99GB it is PATCHED.
Bakcup Launcher works better with unpatched games than it does with patched ones
The DVD Read Error is because the disc is not good, you need to be burning to medium to good quality DVD-R Discs. (Notice the dvd-R. NO DVD+Rs)
If you have an Iso you should burn it on to a DVD-R at 2x-4x, but the loader runs at 3x, so 3x is perfect if you can burn at 3x. A great FREE burning program is ImgBurn for PCs and you can use the built in Disk Utility for Macs
All you have to do then is stick it in your wii and hit launch game
