Has someone found a link to this "mysterious" pre-compiled WadManager for 4.0??

I search all over the forum & the only thing i've found is THIS which i don't think is the right thing...


It doesnt do what you think it does, you still need CIOS installed

The thing which drives me crazy/angry is all these guys coming & saying they succeeded in doing "this" or "that" WITHOUT ANY link or direction, knowing it will help so many other people!...




Anyway.....

Its true as the old version would not work with 4.0e and sdhc.
I saw this new version tried it and its working with a sdhc 8gb card 100% perfect.
pm me your email and i will send to you.

Cheers

hi, i wanted to know when rev8 of ios is installed what does the homebrew browser says as a custom ios loaded when you enter its in-menu by pressing the house button on the wiimote. isn't this the best way to be sure you have rev8 installed?

I updated officially (had cIOS 36_rev8 installed, HBC, GeckoOS, Softchip also) and they all stayed working, and the wii is 4.0E now which is great

I have a wiikey 2 also btw

BUT, this guide did the one missing thing for me - let me play nonlegit .wad games on the SD card, and for that it's done an awesome thing.

Well done!

I have followed this guide and upgraded through method 1 to 4.0U. When I tried out the SD channel launching, it turned out that I can only launch wiiware games but not any vc games. The vc games I have tried are: zelda ocarina of time, mario kart 64, earthbound (may have been a hacked wad, can't remember). The wiiware games that did worked for me are: Bomberman Blast & Pokemon Ranch.

my wi specs are:
-CIOS rev 8 installed
-IOS60 installed through alternative way since I was stuck on 15/15 during installation, but kongsnutz guided me through this with a an alternative method.
-1st gen wiikey

any help is appreciated, since there's many vc games I want to try but couldn't because of memory limitations.

EDIT: to be clear, the vc games didn't boot and the wii returned to the title screen without any message. Only wiiware games worked so far.

thats what IOS60 was for.............its all working however.........you cannot load wads from another country on your wii.

try downloading a VC wad from your region and then try..............the ones that dont work you can use freethewads to patch to your region.

you probably used preloader/starfall/cioscorp on an old FW to launch these before but 4.0 cant yet...................so patch them or make sure to download ones from your region
