My original Wii is modded, but for some reason can't play GameCube games anymore natively. Is there a fix to this? I would put the disc into the gamecbue and it will register as one, but it won't actually play it.

If this problem can be fixed, I was also wondering if it could be brought back to stock state similar to a 3DS, but the issue is, it has been homebrewed for a long time, and the attempts for it to be removed have been done, but not 100%.

But I don't have the homebrew channel.
 
Everything is old and needs to be updated. I THINK I should be done with everything, although I hate how confusing they made everything when it originally used to be:

DNS Hacking method
NAND backup
and you're good to go. But now all of this confusing shit happened and all I just want is to fix my Gamecube discs!

So after re-modding my Wii through one of the most weirdest ways of doing it (I never had to use ModMii to mod my PC when the DNS method alone was better), I have all of these WAD files that I am tempted to remove. can I remove them?

I also want to know what Nintendont supports in terms of iso files for gamecube games.

Nintendont supports .iso, .ciso, .gcm and extracted format (folders), as well as Triforce Arcade games.

If you don't like ModMii, you could've used the Manual Setup section in the guide. This is the DNS exploit (click).

I can't see the attachment, it says I don't have permission so I can't see the WADs that you want to delete.

Haha! Wonderful! I don't think I have installed them, but I don't know what the heck all of these are for.

cIOS 248, CIOS 249, cIOS250 and cIOS251 (the first 4 files in the screenshot) are for USB loaders. They allow you to play Wii games from a USB drive

IOS11, IOS20, IOS30, IOS40, IOS50, IOS60 and IOS70 are all IOSes used by System Menus older than 4.3. These gives you extra brick protection in case you install an older System Menu (which you shouldn't do anyways). It's always good to install ModMii's System Menu IOSes. The rest are the latest version of every IOS that the Wii uses to run software (games, channels, etc).
 
Can i transfer my homebrew setup with all the apps and config (i have everything in an usb) to another usb?
I want to transfer my usb setup to another usb with bigger storage for the same Wii without the need to install everything again.
 
Hey guys.

I know, im stupid. My wii is full bricked. Turn it on, straight to black screen. Bootmii via boot2 was unavailable and I think I forgot to install priiloader and just launched the app and got distracted...

I attempted to install another system's nand onto this console, it gave this screen, then upon restart appeared to be bricked. I attempted to do savemiifrii with a ccp to gcn adapter and a taken apart ccp but nothing different happened just same boot to black.

Can anyone help me pls im so lost

So uh... Forecast channel gotten an update that needs the WiiLink Patcher, and I decide to do the same process but nothing worked, and Everybody Votes Channel consistently has a 231000 error but still partially works, The News Channel still works, same thing with the Mii Contest Channel (although idk if it's on my end but there hasn't been any contests for a while now), and the Nintendo Channel still works.

To keep myself updated and stuff and such for the future, what *exactly* do I do?
 
Hello! I can't seem to get my USB and SD card to register at the same time. If my SD card is inserted at all, my external SSD will not register. If I remove the SD card, though, it works completely fine.

Unless I boot into Uneek, in which case the homebrew channel doesn't register any of the apps on my SSD, including USB Loader GX.

Using a 2gb Toshiba SD card.
Verbatim 256gb external SSD.
USB-C Y-Cable.
rev96 uneek+di built using modmii.

EDIT:
insalled the WADs from the initial Homebrewing part of the ModMii guide to my EmuNAND, and no luck.
Furthermore, the console freezes any time it has to restart while in the EmuNAND - such as exiting YAWMM or the Homebrew Channel.

Wii is system 4.3U using 4.3U EmuNAND built with accurate serial number.

Also, how exactly do I configure my system to autoboot into EmuNAND?

It sounds like you're automatically booting into your uneek emunand when the SD card is inserted. And it doesn't have DI - why there's no USB access.

Are you sure you set it up as uneek+di rather than uneek?

If that isn't it, I'm not sure what you mean by "register". A softmodded Wii doesn't have unified device drivers - please be specific about what software/loader/app is seeing the hard drive/sd or not for help with diagnosis.

The built EmuNAND is on the SSD. The "nands" folder on the root of the device contains a subfolder "pl_us," with the EmuNAND inside. There is also a "sneek" folder on the root of the SSD. containing the files di.bin, diconfig.bin, font.bin, kernel.bin, and nandcfg.bin

There's some other files on the SD card having to do with neek2o (armboot.bin in the bootmiineek folder, and kernel.bin in the sneek folder. bootmiineek and sneek folders are both on the root).

All of these files were copied directly from the ModMii "Copy_To_SD/HDD" folders, and have not been touched, rearranged, renamed, tampered, or otherwise interacted with from myself.

I am not booting into EmuNAND by default. In ModMii, I chose the option of Uneek+DI. I would have been happy to try and manually build a version of a Uneek+DI EmuNAND, but I couldn't find much consistently up to date information.

I have an "apps" folder on the roots of both devices (SD card and external SSD), with different homebrew applications.

When the Wii powers on, with both devices connected, it boots into the real NAND. On the real NAND, when I open the Homebrew Channel, it will only show the apps from my SD card, and none from the SSD. The only way I can get the SSD apps to show up is by ejecting the SD card.

From the home menu of the real NAND, I can use an installed channel to boot into the uneek EmuNAND.

From there, when I open the Homebrew Channel, I can see the apps from my SD card. If I remove my SD card like I do on the real NAND, no apps show up on the Homebrew Launcher from my connected SSD.

The issue in my original post, about the console freezing any time it has to restart while in the EmuNAND - such as exiting YAWMM or the Homebrew Channel, still applies.

My issues are: Not being able to access the "apps" folder from both devices at the same time in the Homebrew Channel on real NAND, not autobooting into EmuNAND, not being able to access apps whatsoever on EmuNAND from my SSD, and the freezing issue upon console restart in EmuNAND.
It's a black model "Family Edition" Wii, lacking all the GameCube controller/disc/memcard support.

I might try copying my own dumped and extracted NAND, but I'm not sure what other issues will arise from that. I think I'd only need to copy the sys.cert file, but I could be misremembering.

I hope this clarifies everything, and any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
