Homebrew usb loader gx is not reading my usb and wiiflow isn't either

[tredI9100]

Good Morning.



- Your USBLoader GX Version/Revision please ?
- Your USBLoader GX Loader´s IOS (58 or 249) please ?
- Your Games/ISOs/wbfs Files are ok ? Maybe you have made them "lighter" too much ?
- Your cIOS 249 / 250 Setup please ? Maybe a sysCheck can help.


Thank you.

Or perhaps a broken SD card?

good morning and sorry for the late response i went to sleep since it was almost 3 am where i live
yes i did try to change it to 56 and 57
and i've been using port 0 this whole time as well
i'll go ahead and reinstall the homebrew channel in a moment
and i'm sure my sd card isn't broken

Hello,

given your syscheck report, the HBC is on IOS 061, it should be on IOS 058.

You can put your HBC on the ios 058 by following this procedure:

get Hackmii install v1.2 here == < https://bootmii.org/download/ , put Hackmii install in your APPS on your SD card

Launch the HomeBrew Channel then launch "Hackmii installer v1.2"
and do Charge.

Then you will have to wait for the appearance of the "1" it can take between 20 seconds and 30 seconds, be patient.

Then we will tell you what can be installed on your wii, you just have to press "A"

Then you will see at the top of the list "install the Homebrew Channel" and "uninstall the homebrew channel"

Go to "uninstall the homebrew channel" and press "A" then once uninstalled, press "A" again to continue.

Then you will see that the phrase "uninstall the homebrew channel" has disappeared, so do not quit the installer and reinstall the HBC by clicking on "install the homebrew channel" and always validate "A" to reinstall it.

Once installed, all you have to do is exit and you'll be back on the HomeBrew Channel.
By pressing "Home" on the wiimote, you will then have this at the top right.

1.1.2
IOS58 v24.32

No chance to try an other HDD ?
Did you have also checked your Game ISO´s/WBFS Files ?

 

[Felix12332]

i don't have another hdd but i could get one

and no what should i check about the iso/wbfs files

Did you maybe tried WiiFLow Mod ?
https://github.com/Fledge68/WiiFlow_Lite
If your Games works there,then your HDD and Games are ok and you maybe use that Loader instead.

If not:

Did you maybe tried "Downloads" from other Sources ?
Did you have checked your WiiBackup Manager Settings if they are correct ?

Thank you.

 

[Felix12332]

is there anything specific i should do about the settings

and i'll try the loader you sent me

Only compare the Wii Backup Manager Settings with them from here please:
https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-split-brawl.484822/#post-7592791

go to settings > General tab >
- Choose "Remove update partition" if not already set to that option. (required for Smash Bros!)

go to settings > FAT32/NTFS tab >
enable these options:
- select Folder layout : "Store files in separated sub-folders".
- Select Naming style : Title_[ID] pattern.
- Select Split to 4GB. (default, but in case you changed it, restore that option to 4GB)
- Enable "Automatically update storage convention on partition mount" option.

go to settings > Drives >
Check all your internal drives letters.
example, C: is your internal computer's HDD partition, you don't want to install Wii games to that hard drive, so hide it from the program.

go to settings > Startup >
If you want auto-mount of folders and HDD partition at program's launch.
I'd suggest to only auto-mount folders located on your computer, not HDD's partition as you might run the program without your hdd plugged or partition letter could be different if you have different USB devices plugged.

go to settings > Titles >
- enable "Use Wiitdb titles.txt" option.
- Select your language in "Title language" drop drown menu.
- click "Download titles.txt" button.
- enable "Use wiitdb for file and folders name" option.
- DO NOT enable other renaming options!! dangerous ! It can corrupt your games and drives.

Save the settings.
Go to main window and mount your drive ! done ! everything is renamed automatically.

Thank you.

Good to hear GameCube Games are working.

Can you please plug your HDD on the PC and look to the Folder Structure please ?
You can use the Windows Explorer.

On the Root from your HDD there should be the Folder "wbfs".

Inside should be the Game Folders with the Structure like this:
New Super Mario Bros. Wii [SMNE01] <-this is the GameID and should be different for every other Game,of course.

And inside should be the .wbfs File like
SMNE01.wbfs <- also GameID

Can you tell me the Size(s) from your some of your wbfs Files please ?


Thank you.

 

[Felix12332]

folder name is Mario Kart Wii [RMCE01] inside is a file named RMCE01.wbfs and it weighs 2.61 gb aside from that in the main wbfs folder where the folder referenced before is there is a text file called disc.info

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

its the only game i have on the hdd at the moment

Ok,everything seems good for that.

So,Time for the Checklist again (please compare):

Your older HDD is formatted with FAT32
(GameCube Games are working)

Wiiflow sends you back
USBLoader GX (that Version from blackb0x) Game Black Screen
Loader´s IOS 58
Game IOS 249
emuNAND Saves disabled

The HDD is plugged to Port 0.
Your cIOS Setup is now corrected to 249[56] (rev 65535 Info: d2x-v10beta52)

Game seems to be correct transferred.

EDIT: Possible Solution found on Page 4
@Cyan - Maybe some Ideas left please ?



Maybe time to try 2 -3 more (downloaded) Games ?


Thank you.

No worries,I live here....

 

[Felix12332]

hello sorry for the late response
i did tell you my internet was really slow anyways it didn't work again, i'm still getting a black screen after launching the game in usb loader

 

[Felix12332]

i checked some youtube videos on how to fix it but none of them really worked so

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

two of the videos i saw were changing the video mode

i attempted doing so but it didn't work either

Good Morning.

That was also my Thought.
But then I saw you have a NTSC Wii (sysCheck) and your Mario Kart Wii was also the NTSC Version.
So I presume you only use NTSC Games.

You can try to delete the USBLoader GX Config File.
It should be in

SD Card:\apps\usbloader_gx\GXGlobal.cfg

Maybe also the
SD Card:\apps\usbloader_gx\GXGameSettings.cfg

After Re-Boot the Loader has the Standard Settings.
You maybe have to set the Loader´s IOS to 58 and Game IOS to 249 and disable emuNAND Saves again.

Good Luck
Thank you.
