My copy of COD:MWR will not install for some reason. Does it have to do with a bad burn?
Are there any special settings for The Conduit, Guitar Hero: Smash Hits and Guitar Hero 5 to make them playable on GX (I have the music games both running under 222 Rev. 4, but neither will load up, I get a black screen with the Wiimote light on.)?

I stopped using USB Loader GX because I couldn't get Guitar Hero to work.
I use Configurable USB Loader now.

I have the same problem sometimes, bad burn i think. sometime they will rip to HDD ok, but blackscreen. Not the games you mentioned in particular but its worth a try to reburn, or just add the iso thru wbfsman

The thing is they play fine off discs, are there any differences in the games if I add them from a computer? Space is not an issue I just want to know.

For the Conduit I've read it's best to install IOS249 rev19 using IOS57 as the base.

As for Guitar Hero games I couldn't get them to work in USB Loader GX.

I see you don't read.

I mentioned it four posts up.

i have all the games on your list working on USB Loader GX just by following xzxero's guide all guitar hero games are played on 249 with the exception of Guitar Hero 5(222) and Band Hero(223)

Harmor he's talking about COD:MWR not Conduit. Could they just both be bad rips? They played fine from disc when I used NeoGamma, when I copied them over both kind of struggled in certain percentage areas, but eventually finished. If I used WBFS manager could that work for both of them?

My apologies.

I would try a different loader to see if it's USB Loader GX's fault or if it's a bad dump.

Final update on this topic before I let it die. I installed the ISOs of COD:MWR, The Conduit, GH5, and GH Smash Hits via WBFS Manager. (I even reripped my GH Smash Hits using IMGBurn and it worked fine.) All work fine on GX so the DVDs must be bad burns, but somehow still work when loaded through disc based loader.

tl;dr Use WBFS Manager for games that won't install from disc for USB loading.

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon

    Too bad Excite Truck wasn't multi player :(
