I am trying to figure out why the Ocarina cheats don't work. I do a search for cheats in the game (for example, animal crossing), the cheats come up, I select the cheats, save the GCT file to the SD card, choose ON for the Ocarina cheats, load the game, but the cheats don't work.

Can someone help?

So this being the 'dummies' thread, get ready for a n0ob question, which I didn't bother to search for in the numerous LARGE topics, that would only generate hits not seeing my needs.

How do I load .iso games from a HDD with ntfs filesystem with (the latest) Configurable USB Loader.
According to the USB loader wiki, it should be possible.

Thanks for any or and all (usefull) replies !!

sorry for being blunt here, but as a dummy, I have no idea what most of the features mean.

and if this is meant to help people out on choosing which loader to use; wouldn't it be better if is in a chart format so people can compare?

because I am completely overwhelm by the sheer information provided and when I am done reading through it, I couldn't get the answer I was looking for; which one am I going to use?

I have a WD Elements 640GB formatted as FAT32 and loaded about 15 games. I can see and play the games using both cfgLoader 53a-fat and USB loader GX. My problem is that i constantly get audio stutters.

I was told by Dr. Clipper in cfg thread that it is probably spin down, but i don't think that is the problem. It's my understanding that spindown occurs after 10-15 min of no drive access and usually causes the games to crash. I have never had a game crash even after playing for hours or leaving it paused for 20+ min.

I get audio stutters with a screeching noise during the opening of Twilight Princess as soon as Link starts riding Epona behind the Title...thats less than 5 minutes after loading, so could it really be spindown? Strangely if a fmv cinematic is playing such as opening of Mario Kart or Little King's Story audio is fine, but in game every few minutes it skips and at the same moment the wii disk drive flashes. And all other games will have an audio skip every few minutes and if there is spoken dialoge it lags behing the video so it is both frustrating and annoying. Please help.

This is amazing! I've been hooked all day since i found this thread, loading from discs is soooo 1999! Running CFG on a portable WD 250gb FAT32, transferring all my games now! This will definitely make me play more Wii as well, thank you so much!

Hello,
Is there a WBFS management system that optimizes disk space? the one i'm using now, WBFS manager, deletes things but in some cases, doesn't actually remove the deleted files. I mean, the files are gone, but there is no more free space. so there's some fragmentation, or deleted files still allocating space.

Anything out there that works better than this? I'm losing gigs.

Thanks
Laser

Hi Laser,
Just switch to FAT32 and use WiiFlow. With FAT32 you can defrag your HDD using Windows.
Please, read it here: WiiFloWiki - Using a hard drive

Hi RGadelha,
Thanks for the suggestion. I did end up doing something similar, but with an NTFS partition.
Thanks for the suggestion though.

No problem, you're welcome.

Just a reminder, Wii cannot write to an NTFS partition but I think you know that already.

Have fun!

I don't know whether to congratulate you on using the search button, or blame you for missing out all the stickied threads in this thread section.

Anyhow...when comparing loaders, you may want to take a look at this chart. It may not be completely up to date, but it sure beats this thread (no offense to Big Moe, of course. But it's just that a lot has happened since this thread was made and last updated).

The short answer would be "either CFG or wiiflow is fine".
