Yeah, it is loading from the SD Card. I copied over the other games (Wii Play) and reset the USB Loader GX Settings. Now, when I hit play on Wii Play, it sends me back to the Homebrew Channel (Whatever the default IOS is, that's what I'm using)
Thank you.:)

And you are using a Flash Drive/USB Stick,correct ?

You can try this Version if you like:

https://gbatemp.net/threads/usb-loader-gx.149922/page-1316#post-8856063

(I use it since November 2019 and I am very satisifed - only Driver San Francisco did not work).

Please backup your Files in the apps/usbloader_gx Folder before you replace them.

My Default Loader Settings:

Video Mode - Disc Default
Dol Video Patch - OFF
480p Pixel Fix Patch - ON (maybe try off)
Sneek Video Patch - OFF
VIDTV Patch - OFF
Aspect Ratio - System Default
Game Language - Console Default
Patch Country Strings - OFF
Ocarina - ON
Private Server - Wiimmfi.de
Loader´s IOS - IOS249
Game´s IOS - IOS249
Quick Boot - OFF
Block IOS Reload - Auto
Return to - USB Loader GX
Nand Saves Emulation - Partial (for the Game Saves on SD Card)
Nand Chan. Emulaton - Partial
Hooktype - None
Wiird Debugger - OFF
Debugger Paused Start - OFF
Channel Launcher - Boot Content


And again my cIOS Installation:

cIOS 249[57] (rev 21, Info: d2x-v10beta52)
cIOS 250[56] (rev 21, Info: d2x-v10beta52)


Thank you and
Good Luck.:)

The

boot.dol
icon.png
and meta.xml
.

in the Folder SD:\apps\usbloader_gx


Nothing more please.:)
You can keep your Settings and Config Files of course.:)
Alright, just replaced the icon.png and meta.xml, but I couldn't find the boot.dol in the new version you sent me so I just stuck with the original one. Thanks!

Here please:
Alright, I copied the file over and used all of your settings (even reinstalled the same cIOSes as you) and it still won't work! Ummm I really have no idea what to do from this point on unless you still have ideas? I'll reattatch my SysCheck for you.

No Chance of an HDD ?

Not really, I have a 64GB SD card which I'm not using at the moment. Do you think I could run games off of that?
I just got rid of my SSD for Windows on my Mac for use with my Wii. I Formatted it as WBFS (that's the only thing I can really do with WitGUI on my Mac) and Just Dance still doesn't want to play despite the other games playing fine.

Hello.:)

I am sorry that this single Game still bothers you.....:(

On the other Side,all other Games work fine.:yay:

If you like you can try

WiiFlow Lite Mod
https://github.com/Fledge68/WiiFlow_Lite

or Configurable USBLoader.
https://wiidatabase.de/downloads/usb-und-disk-loader/configurable-usb-loader-mod/
(use DIREKT DOWNLOAD please)

Both USB Loaders supports Wii Games from SD Card loading.

Thank you and
Good Luck.:).

I solve this problem by simply change its (Just Dance 2020) game language from default to English, than it run fine.
I also try this method on 2019, China, snd Party version.
I hope it can help.

My Wii: Japanese
Game version: Just Dance 2020 us

Hello.:)

Tested with the NTSC Version of Just Dance 2016 and tried it with USBLoader GX v3.0 r1272.

With HDD
and USB Stick -

View attachment 194659


Black Screen with Standard Settings.

Game Settings changed to

Video Mode to NTSC

and
Game Language to ENGLISH

Also please DISABLE the "Nand Emulation" Option (because the Save is getting corrupt every time you start the Game).

After a few Seconds the Health and Safety Screen appears and the Game boots normally.

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
