use wad manager 1.5 the one your using is really old.

Also ret-1 error could mean an incompatible sd card or the the files are not correct on your sd card(your wad folder not named properly)

it should be named wad not wads

the sd card is compatible....otherwise i wouldnt be able to run wad manager in the first place right? Regardless I've used this card to install wads over the past year so i know its fine, ill try wad manager 1.5 though and let you know how it works. Thanks for the quick response.



Whoa hey, 1.5 is asking me to select an ios , ive never had to do that with wad manager....do i use 249?

Hi :0)

I am trying to install wads using wad lan manager 1.5. if i use ios249 it freezes and i have to reset my wii. if i use any other ios it goes through the motions but then i get ticket error -2010.

My wii is on system menu 4.2e
Drivekey is on and installed (set to block all updates)??
HBC 1.06 is installed
Gecko 1.9 installed (due to some games not loading from disc channel since 4.2e update)

Are the wads not installing because of the drivekey blocking all updates? or is it that since the update my ios's have been stubbed?

What are the simple steps to get this working pls?

thank you :0)

I also ran signcheck if this helps?

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.

    I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So that version is semi rare
