Thanks, but the ModMii site seems to be down...

This is really starting to piss me off how I can't get my Wii to run Wii/GC ISO's from either DVD or HDD. I tried with DVD-r earlier, a friend said to load them with Neogamma r9, it told me my drive is too new for DVD-r and that it's a 20081218 dated drive even though it's PAL release. I took it in to be serviced at one point, but that was nothing to do with the disc drive. >_>

Can anyone tell me what I should do to get it working, please? Any info you need, I can give it. Just please help me get it loading Wii/GC games from a HDD.

If there's no easy way to fix my problem, perhaps there's a way to completely re-do everything. If this is the best/easiest option, what specific guide should I follow?

Hi all! I'm just gonna jump right into my problem.
So I have successfully softmodded my wii v4.3u
I have since tried to get wiiflow working.
Turns out the method i used to softmod my wii required my sd card for gc game backups and i dont have the room for that...also the other features of the advanced menu and what not in wiiflow look awesome.
In attempting to fix this i since had to reformat my external hdd....so i made a first primary fat32 partition and a second primary partition ntsc...evenly split between the 1tb drive.
I'm very new to all this...but from reading around the different guides and forums..it seems i can just reinstall ios's and whatnot i need.
Please, if someone could take the time to guide me through the process of this and having a fully functional wiiflow with the new menu...or point me to a noob modder tutorial it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Wiiexplorer works great. No need to dump the whole thing with CleanRip/DMToolbox.

If you can't load from HDD, it may not necessarily be how your Wii is hacked. Can this HDD be used on the PC? And if you can access it on the PC, then perhaps it is how you hacked your Wii.
If you want a guide to completely and thoroughly redo it, try this one. I have had nothing but success with it.

Thank You! I've used ModMii and my Wii has succesfully been modded. Now however, I'm trying to run games from my external hard drive. It is formatted in NTFS-format, the games I have are in .ISO-format, and I'm using the USB-loader that comes bundled with ModMii. Where/how should I put games on my hard drive? When I run the USB-loader from the Wii, it said it couldn't find any games...

The HDD is a Samsung M3 Portable. All the hacking was done with an SD Card (the 2GB one that came with my 3DS), then I later copied all of the stuff to the USB as I'd rather have everything on the USB

I'll try the guide in a bit. Main reason I hinted at re-doing everything was mainly because I'm thinking I may have screwed up at some point on some things like when it asks for an IOS to reload or whatever. I have no idea what to pick unless the guide specified.

Thanks for the help.

Where/how should I put games on my hard drive?

I need to know this also.

I have a wbfs HD and I see that everyone has moved away from that to fat32. I've pulled all the games onto my pc with WBFS Manager 3.0. They were saved as iso files. Will these files work with usbloadergx? I just need to copy them on? What will split them to 4gb chunks?

Reformat it as Fat32 with 32K clusters. The easiest way to do this on a PC is EaseUS Partition Manager (dunno what the Mac version is). And then it should work. You'll have to re-rip all your games to the hard drive since formatting it will erase all the files on it. Keep a few backups on your computer.

The Wii games only read if they're wbfs. Wii Game Manager/Backup Fusion can split them (and they're both for PC).

I think you want fat32 file system and WBFS games on it.

Tried running a GC game with WiiFlow and it blackscreened. Tried again but with USB loader GX and it said an error message rather than blackscreening. Said I needed either Devolution or Dios Mios (lite) to launch GC games. So now I'd assume I just install DM from this page : https://code.google.com/p/diosmios/wiki/Downloads?tm=2 Which of the two non-lite links would I use? There's Real NAND and NEEK DI versions.

Hi,i have a little problem, i use the cfg loader to play my games, my wii can't enter the wii shop because it isn't updated.So i need to download an update from the wii shop to play MW3, how do i download this file without the wii shop? (i'm aware that the update it's just like a save file so it wouldn't have any problem)

 

[ferocious hobbit]

I have the Wii RVL-101 model. I am was able to install homebrew channel and bootmii, but I can't use other applications like multi-mod manager and priiloader.

Am I SOL? Or is there some way I can interact with these apps/installers without a gamecube remote?

those work fine with an older Wiimote, too. (one that DOESN'T have motion+ built into it.) so it may be hard to find but at least there's SOME option there.

Yeah it looks like you followed that guide perfectly. But I think I was a bit tired as I forgot one thing that would have made this a step shorter.
It shows you have the WiiGator MIOS installed (as it would from that guide) and that's for burned discs (if your Wii's DVD drive supports it). So now, with WiiMod or MMM, you just need to install the DIOSMIOS 2.10 wad (use the REAL NAND version) and then, in USBLGX, set the general options for GC loading for DM (it might be default but I can't recall) and GC loading should be ready to go.

Yeah I realise DM was omitted, I purposely left it out previously just to be slightly more precise, anyway.

As I was going through the guide, all the md5 checksums and everything else went perfectly. Installed DM 2.10. Had a quick look through all the settings and found a GC Loading option. Set it to MIOS (gonna assume this means DIOS MIOS) After attempting to boot WW my Wii just turned off (red power light)

Whilst I was installing DM I read the other options for WiiMod and saw 'Wii System Information', decided to click it out of curiosity and got this.

Not too sure if this looks correct.

Been messing around a bit, decided to try a different USB device. And so far (haven't selected a save file yet) it seems to be working. The DIOS MIOS splash appeared almost as soon as I pressed start in USBloaderGX. I figured there would be no problems with the USB drive I was using. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Samsung-Slimline-Portable-Hard-Drive/dp/B008PABFX8 this one, as it was playing my Wii backups just fine. The other day I was thinking maybe the USB drive was going to sleep when a game was selected even though I selected the drive to never sleep in the settings program supplied by Samsung (Samsung Drive Manager)

FALSE ALARM. Seems the Wii shut down (red light) whilst I was writing this message during the WW intro I let play. *sigh*
