Cool I took you post out of quotes to respond easier
when I say "neek" I'm speaking about the neek environment (both neek AND neek2o, which is just neek v2.0, it's still neek)
I am familiar I remember when crediar made it. It was Sneek, SD only. Then came UNEEK USB only then NEEK2o for ver 2.. I donated to crediar lol.
Very few titles need neek(2o), because most other games are working fine from an "emuNAND".
it's like neek, you install the wad to that nand, but the loader boot the channels without launching neek or that emuNAND image. It just redirects the installed channel and savegame as if they were installed on real NAND.
That is what I thought. Fix94 had the bones of that working last I was in the scene. I was very involved at the time..
are you sure ?
If it's because you need bootmii to boot into neek2o, then USBLoaderGX can boot it without bootmii.
Last I knew.. yes. I tried lots of methods BITD.. Bootmii to launch was the standard. I used some Neek stuff through wiiflow but that was young at the time..
an outdated one.
probably missing titles, probably wrong entries not really needing neek.

AhhI would love to see an updated list of just the ones that don't work so I can install them immediately..
you create 2 emuNAND,
on NAND1 you install ALL the games (the working one AND the non working one).
on NAND2 you install the non working game, which will be used by neek2o only.
set USBLoaderGX to display NAND1 path, so you see all your installed games.
for all the working games on nand1, use "emuNAND Full" mode, which will launch the games from sysNAND.
for the game not working with "full", set them to "neek" and change the path in the individual game settings (game > option > nand path).
Sweet. I understand..
The idea is to keep the "neek2o emuNAND" very small, with very few games, to increase its boot time. no need to install 400 games on this one, just the 20-30 problematic ones. install the 900+ working games on the other one which doesn't slow down at game launch.
Sounds easy enough
Some users just install working games on nand1 and non working games on nand2, then they go to USBLoader's setting to change the currently displayed nand folder to keep a "small and fast booting" neek2o nand.
But if you use the trick to install the game twice and set a different path individually per game, you don't need to switch path in the loader's settings anymore and you get to see all your game at once.
Nice tip. Probably worth the extra space. Hope can get all the Rockband DLC up and running again as well... couple thousand songs IIRC. All the guitar hero and rockband games songs in rockband 2. Just because that was the drum kit I had,,
Well I have a lot of work ahead of me. Looks like 16 hours until my old 1TB is copied over. I have a y-cable. I hope this all goes to plan. I'll let you know how it goes. push comes to shove I remove a chunk of games and migrate to the 2TB my PS4 has attached to it. Thanks again for all the information.
BTW.. I will make an updated list of all NEEK only games for the future readers. As soon as I can..

Since you're the man.. any way to sync a wii remote WITHOUT the sync button on the console? it's physically missing on my old wii.(I have 2) I had to take off the face plate and short the contacts in the past..
