I installed riiconnect24 on my v4.1 E wii, the wheather and news channels work perfectly but when I try to load the patched versions of the nintendo channel / voting channel it errors me out... I checked online and I did install the correct wad's but it still doesn't work... please help.
May i ask please which Tutorial or Manual or Guide did you use for Install/Configure RiiConnect24 ?
Can you please tell us your Wii Internet Settings too please ?
Did you also configured WiiConnect24 in the Wii Settings ?
You will now patch your IOS, IOS31 and IOS80. This is required to use the Channels we support to change an RSA key used to sign the files, and contains some patches for Wii Mail. You also will download a patched version of the Everybody Votes Channel.
Download the required files based on your OS. On Windows run RiiConnect24Patcher.bat, on Linux and MacOS run patch.sh.
Follow the instructions it gives you. Upon it finishing [on macOS and Linux, skip for Windows], copy the WAD folder to your SD Card.
You should get the Everybody Votes Channel and Nintendo Channel. It needs to be installed even if you already have the Everybody Votes Channel/Nintendo Channel on your Wii, because you will need a patched WAD you reinstall with.
(If RiiConnect24 Patcher copied everything to the SD Card, you can skip this step) Extract Wii Mod Lite, and then copy it to the apps folder on your SD Card. Do the same for Mail-Patcher.
Put your SD Card in your Wii.
Launch the Homebrew Channel on your Wii.
Launch Wii Mod Lite.
Using the +Control Pad on your Wii Remote, navigate to WAD Manager, and then navigate to the WAD folder.
When IOS31.wad is highlighted, press +, then do the same for IOS80.wad, Everybody Votes Channel and the Nintnedo Channel WAD.
If you get an error saying a title with a higher version is already installed (error -1035), go back to the WAD selection menu and press - on the highlighted Everybody Votes Channel/Nintendo Channel WAD, then try installing it again.
After they are successfully installed, press the HOME Button to exit back to the Homebrew Channel.
Section II - Patching nwc24msg.cfg
You will now patch your nwc24msg.cfg file which is required in order to use Wii Mail.
Launch RiiConnect24 Mail Patcher.
It should only take a few seconds to patch your nwc24msg.cfg. When it’s done, press HOME to exit.
If the previous step failed with an “net_get_status: -24 - Couldn’t request the data: -24” error, please check the internet connection on your Wii.
If you were unable to patch your nwc24msg.cfg correctly, e-mail us at [email protected].
Section III - Connecting
You need to set your DNS in order to get the Forecast and News Channel to point to our servers. This DNS is also useful if you want to play Wiimmfi.
Go to Wii Options.
Go to Wii Settings.
Go to Page 2, then click on Internet.
Go to Connection Settings.
Select your current connection.
Go to Change Settings.
Go to Auto-Obtain DNS (Not IP Address), then select No, then Advanced Settings.
Type in 164.132.44.106 as the primary DNS.
Type in 8.8.8.8 as the secondary DNS (You can also try 1.1.1.1, however it just came out and might cause problems).
Select Confirm, then select Save.
Select OK to perform a connection test.
If the connection test was successful, select No to skip the Wii System Update.
Go to WiiConnect24, then WiiConnect24 again, and make sure it is enabled.
Back on the WiiConnect24 menu, go to Standby Connection and make sure it is enabled.
At Slot Illumination, we recommend you set the disc light to Dim or Bright, but this is optional.
Finally, go to the Internet section, then User Agreements or Agreement/Contact, then Yes.
Please read through this and don’t skip through it. This contains important stuff about RiiConnect24 as a service!
If you get error 107245, then you probably have failed to patch your IOS correctly.
[If you’re getting errors such as a WiiConnect24 and Wii Shop Channel currently not being offered in your country, please go to Wii Settings -> Last Page -> Country and change it to United Kingdom. You will get this error when using a country that we don’t support. Contact us at [email protected] if you need more help.

Or when your player dies, you can say in code, if enemy exists, do nothing, but if enemy does not exist, then create enemy at certain spot. (This would be a pain tho for lots of emeies)
