Hacking NOOB PARADISE - ask away

[GameGeek]

When using UNEEK or UNEEK+DI, is there any way to load and use it independently of a SD card, using only a USB driver (ie: being able to place the "Bootmii" folder for UNEEK in the USB drive rather than a SD card)?

 

[zizer]

no you can't (bootmii only sd)

 

[1234turtles]

can you back up wii's nand without bootmii?
if so how

Can you burn Xenoblade Chronicles on a normal DVD?

 

[PsyBlade]

if with normal you mean single layer:
no, it needs double layer unless you remove one of the languages (use search)

what is it with pirates and single layer anyway
two single cost more then one double
and you're bound to produce at least some coasters in trying to fit it
making it cost more in total

Hi,

Can you install darkcorp on 4.3?

ive done all prior to 4.3 which works but never on 4.3

now i have a wii which is 4.3, already hacked but cant install darkcorp,

i tried the regular mode and also the virgin mode of darkcorp

this seems to to just froze the wii , but i can hard reset and get back the wii menu just fine

edit-

nvm i just downgraded to 4.2 and installed darkcorp, i guess i answered my own question....

The pal version has to be burned to a Dual Layer disc. The Japanese version will fit on a normal single layer disc.

use d2x to block iso reloading or
use alt dol loading

 

[DanglinDave]

i use cfg so idk if it has d2x

 

[PsyBlade]

cfg can use d2x-cios fine
just install it (eg using modmii)

 

[DanglinDave]

oh yeah, i have that, but still it doesn't work

 

[retKHAAAN]

oh yeah, i have that, but still it doesn't work

and you've done as was suggested and used block iso reloading or alt dol loading? you've made no mention so far.

 

[DanglinDave]

yes, and it still does not work, i think it might have just been the iso, ill try another

What's a good tool for creating FAT32 partitions with cluster size of 32 KB?

I've tried using:
- Win7's default partition manager. It only allows me to create small FAT32 partitions; when I try making large ones, it won't let me choose any other filesystem than NTFS or exFAT .
- EASEUS Partition Master Pro. It doesn't let me choose the cluster size when creating a FAT32 partition.
- GParted. It doesn't allow me to choose the cluster size at all.

Can I please ask several really stupid questions? I just get Wii today. Mine is black Wii with Wii Remote Plus (and 2 games) on 4.3E. Using letterbomb I already installed Hombrew Channel... But... I really only starting to understand what to do... So... what exactly I need to lunch Wii and Wiiware games? I kind of readed some things about cIOS, Trucha, loaders... But don't truly get it yet. So do I need firstly istall Trucha bug, then cIOS and then loaders? And with using loaders run games from USB? Also... i was not installed BootMe... since I don't really understanded what for is it. So I need it only to make back up of Wii memory, in order to protect it from bricking, right? Its not needed for lunching games? Should I use letterbomb for second time in order to install it, or better just install it from hombrew channel?
With Hombrew Channel I already tried NES, SNES and GBA emulators. All of them started to work, but... NES and SNES hangs after few second after running a game. GBA one is working... but controller and even buttons on Wii itself stoping to work after lunching a game! Whats wrong with them?
Sorry, I know this all is really stupid, but I almoust totally new to Wii hacking...
Newermind... so I was able to run Wii games after all... But now I want to now how to run WiiWare (edit: already lunched WiiWare) and GC games?

Use EASEUS Partition Master Home Edition and don't worry about the cluster size. Make sure the partition is Active and Primary. Use this guide if you get confused.

Thx, I will try this later and report back if I encounter any issues.

I am still wondering on how to use Ocarina codes with Configureable USB Loader and/or for original GC games(running through NeoGamma).

Just decided to hack my wii. I plan to play backups from a SDHC. From what I can tell that will be possible. Is everything I need in modmii? I will probably convert games to wbsf. Here is a sad question, will the wii still load up normally or will I have to configure it to do so. I have had my wii since shortly after launch and have never hacked because it seemed to complicated. I plan to finally do it out of boredom, but do not want to brick it. Thanks in advance for assistance.
