I believe it's because of a limitation where SGM cannot copy from SD to Wii NAND unless there is already an existing savegame in Wii NAND. i.e SGM cannot create from scratch a savegame file in NAND, it can only overwrite an existing one.
This is a pretty big limitation, and someone please correct me if I'm wrong about this, or please suggest an alternative savegame manager that does not have this limitation.
I notice a lot of bugs with SGM beta version which make me scared it's going to corrupt something
edit: it seems writing to Wii NAND is risky business, so probably safer not to be creating new data in there.
I guess SGM is more useful for backing up your saves in case your Wii has a hardware failure. Then on your replacement Wii you would at least have the ability of restoring them, albeit painstakingly. But the process of backing them up to SD is fast (batch copy) so it's still very nice to have I guess

Hey guys I have 2 problems with savegame manager gx.
Problem 1: Whenever I have a USB device in my Wii while loading up the application, I get stuck at initializing system, but the moment I take out the USB it unfreezes and loads into the menu. On a side note, I tried the WAD version to see if that would work, but it takes me back to the system menu after a few seconds. Don't know if it's a cIOS problem, but I have the latest version of cIOS 249. I tried turning on use IOS 58 from the SaveGame Manager Gx settings, but that also doesn't work because of problem 2.
Problem 2: The app won't save any of my settings. I have to set custom paths each time I boot it up to reroute to my SD card from USB 8 because it's unable to automatically detect my SD card for some reason. This application is very useful and its hard to find an alternative, but an update to fix some of the quirks would be greatly appreciated(yes I am using rev 127).

I installed d2x cIOS following this guide, and formatted my USB drive using Wii Backup Manager, and it works for me.
Might be worth running SysCheck to confirm you have those exact 3 cIOS's installed.
My USB stick got corrupted the other day and I had to reformat it again, since then SaveGame Manager GX Beta always freezes on "Loading cIOS249". If I unplug the stick SaveGame Manager GX Beta starts without problems, with the stick plugged in it always freezes at "Loading cIOS249".
I have SaveGame Manager GX Beta from here, on the credits page it says Rev76 IOS249 (Rev6553[the rest is cut off by the screen] and (d2x v10beta52 base5[the rest is cut off by the screen]. I installed cIOS following wiki.guide maybe two months ago.

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.

@Psionic Roshambo, The Wii U gamepads are tied to the console's region, so its impossible to find a cheap gamepad that supports your model. -

S @ salazarcosplay:@Xdqwerty I like how the game had the middle ages 1000AD, the dark ages 600AD.It was great seeing the post robot apocalypse 2300 like Terminator and enter the matrix. some of mad max and fallout. 2300ad though it could had used more elements instead of just a generic ai uprising. It was a great idea for their judgement day to be 1999 Y2K.
-great additions if they would have made an expansion or dlc in my opinion would be finding out humans trapped in a matrix -
a follower having a cyborg character living tissue over metal endoskelleton like terminator, and the synths from fallout -
S @ salazarcosplay:4After Zeal fell it would have been good to see more ancient eras. Perhaps Sumeria based in one area, then Egypt based in another area, Greek based in another area, then roman based in another area before the middle ages.---------
----between 1000ad and 1999 is a big gap they should have had the age of revolution like the american and French Revolution
then the cowboyy era in one area of map and the Industrial revolution/age of enlightmentthen a ww1 and ww2 and a cold war era -
S @ salazarcosplay:they could have added 75,000 bc like assassins creed. zeal was already establish in 12, 000 bc , soething before the kindom rose
