i will post my current questions here to avoid creating thread spam

1 how do i make the nintendon't games show up on wiiflow
i wanna make them appear with covers in the loader to make it look cool and to save time from opening and closing the launcher to enter another

i know it should be possible cause wiiflow has a button for gamecube and an option to chose default gamecube launcher

i try to change the path by the wiiflow app but says the folder is empty, how do i manually edit the path by PC, in what file those are stored

addtional info:
all of my games are converted to nkit.iso format to save space
nintendon't is able to read them perfectly

also
2 another questions is there any way i can use wii u pro controller with wii games launched by wiiflow (in a vwii) i know you could play with gamepad some wii ""virtual console"" games donwloaded from the wii u eshop before it closed , mainly those that suppoerted wii pro controllers

3 can i use SWITCH pro controller and ps4 dualshock controllers for nintendon't i know bloopair applies, temporal patches for other controllers but i don't know if they carry on to nintendon't and can i use wii remote + pro controllers for nintendon't?

4 how can i do a syscheck on a wii u v wii since when i open the app it crashes and i must unplug the console, it works on the old wii but not on wii u's vwii

5 should i always try to force wiiflow to run games with cios 251 (vwii 11beta ciosbase 58) i tried to make mario tennis (wii) and skyward sword (wii) run with auto ios in wiiflow and crashed but when i forced them to cios 251 they ran perfectly is there any reason to use another cios instead of this one to run games

6 I've heard that you can remove the update partitions to save size on the wbfs since that only contains the useless update that
It worked for rune factory mini copters( shovelware but fun) and wiiplay,

7 Why some games don't run and just crash , donkey kong barrel blast exicte truck , wii music and rayman origins for example crash on trying to run them could it be cause i removed the update partition of those (i have the backup of the original unedited files but i haven't tried to run them)

8 Also what is the visual difference
Of setting deflicker OFF (extended) instead of off (safe) , deflicker off has
I heard That there were some games that break ,
Which are those games maybe the games i tried to run that crashed were cause i set the deflicker off extended

9 can i apply the online patches to games run by wbfs files on wiiflow or only to those run by CDs?

Im currently playing on a wii u's vwii mode by hdmi cable and in widescren mode (yeah i managed to make it work)

At first i didn't knew that you actually could play wii games on fullscreen, but looks awesome compared to having those black lines that in the side that for some reason gave me anxiety

How time flies i remember when i played wii games on those old square CRT tvs

From memory i think you may be having issues due to a setting within wiiflow, how your games are placed on your harddrive or your chosen file type.

If its the first I think theres a setting that asks you to choose your game source.
If you have games on SD card and on a hard drive like my set up you need to have both selected.

Game cube games should be in a folder labeled games on root of harddrive.

If some games for gamecube are not showing up in wiiflow its likly due to what file format they are in.
Not sure if this can be done with gamecube or not but I added file types to my playstation emulator plugin file thats in the plugins folder of wiiflow.
This made the games that are of a different file type show in wiiflow.

In regards to games covers you can download covers for gamecube and wii from within wiiflow if my memory serves me correctly.

This is if you are using a wii. I have no experience with wii emulation or the wii u.

Also you can use a ps4 controller with the wii to play most systems but you need to buy a Bluetooth adaptor that goes in the gamecube controller slots.

Sorry if this doesn't cover everything you have asked but hopefully this helps in some way.
