Hacking USB Loader GX failing to load games from new HDD.

[Maverick Lunar X]

Long time no see everyone.

My old HDD died a while back (was WBFS) and I bought a new one. Formatted this one to NTFS and started throwing the games into the wbfs folder, booted it up and everything looked great. First game I clicked sent me back to the Wii menu (was using the forwarder channel). Tried again from HBC, sent me back to HBC instead. Well I figured it's been a long time since I've updated everything, so I went and used ModMii and did a fresh install of everything, keeping the wii at 4.1, and downloaded version 3.0 of USB Loader GX, as well as got rid of the old config files. Same issue.

I feel like I've skipped a small but crucial step. Any ideas?

Edit: NTSC/US Wii btw, if it helps. All games were NTSC U as well.

Thanks, nice softmod thanks to ModMii of course.
Try installing GX v3.0 for IOS 249 and get IOS249/250 bases 56/57 v9 beta 47 (using modmii if u wish)
some people report better HDD detection using D2x9b so good luck

Pretty sure thats what im using, but I'll double check. As I said, the HDD is pulling up just fine, pretty fast too, but as soon as I try to launch a game it goes bananas.. Thanks for a start, everything has changed a heck of a lot since I last used this wii.

 

[AbdallahTerro]

your IOS 249 and 250 are v8.0 final, I recommend v9beta49Fix - Modmii page 4 type: "beta" press 1

 

[Anon10W1z]

Ur syscheck looks fine, except IOS36 isn't patched...

My b, I was referring to the USB Loader GX version. Installed the newest beta from the google code page, no change.

Would 36 make a difference? I ended up testing with launch titles, still nothing. Worst case scenario I'll reformat to FAT32, but im just not going back to WBFS.

 

[AbdallahTerro]

FAT32 has best compatibility
36 is not the problem here but you can patch it anyway

 

[Maverick Lunar X]

^ Yeah, I'm noticing how many other programs only support FAT32. Still kinda bugs me, I need to solve this

 

[Maverick Lunar X]

Going to try a reformat, 500 GB Fat32. Is there any benefit between 16k clusters and 32k clusters?

edit: went with 32k, working like a champ. still strange that it wouldn't work under NTFS, but I'm just glad to have it working
