So I managed to install my emunand, but I am failing totally at installing wads on it with usbloadegx, I can't even read the error message about it because as soon as it pops up half a second late usbloaderGX shoves into my face a 100% screen.
by "100% screen" you mean the progress bar used for the install wad window?
did you try different wad files? it could be corrupted
or you don't have a full NAND dump on the "EmuNAND Channel" path.
you correctly set the EmuNAND Channel path to nands/pl_us/ in the loader's settings?
if you did, then I don't see what's wrong and don't know why it displays an error.
how did you create the NAND dump?
did you try dumping NAND directly from the loader and use it to install wads?
it happens for all your games?
because maybe your game takes the full disc size so there's nothing to remove.
if not, then maybe there's a bug, but nobody reported it. Well, it's recommended to use 1:1 for most backups, so maybe nobody used that option.
Sorry, I can't help here. It should make smaller ISO, I don't know why it didn't work.
Maybe someone else can confirm or know why it happens?
So I just realized my problem ---- I had two different versions of USB Loader GX here, the r1256 version that I booted from HBC and (unknowingly) the extremely old r1180 version that was installed as a channel WAD to my Wii menu. I kept launching USB Loader GX through one and then the other --- it turns out the reason the dumping wasn't working was because I was using a different USBLGX each time.Actually, I got that problem fixed --- the settings apparently didn't save the first time for some reason because both of the options were set to off --- I turned them both on again and redumped a game and it turned out fine.
Do you by any chance have answers to my other two questions?:
In addition, I am also having a problem with the Forwarder channel --- I installed the WAD from Sourceforge updated on 4-15-2015, but after installing it on my NAND and launching it from the Wii Menu, it turns to a black screen with my Wiimote disconnected. Is there a way to fix this? Am I doing something wrong? (I am also using r1256-r1257 from Sourceforge as well).
Finally, is there by any chance a full channel WAD for the latest revision, or is the latest full channel WAD only for the stable release of v3.0 from years back? Thanks again!
What is switch app? Really, stop using this.I found what the issue is, the switch app seems to grab the Pl_us folder and move all the folders inside that one to the root of the hard drive
Of course you can't install wad to "nothing", you need a copy of your NAND to edit the system files and register the tickets and the titles to that wii NAND copy.I have no idea why, but the folder being empty does not allows to install the games because usbloader GX is searching for an inexistent process.
Don't !No because I have a bootmii dump,
There's nothing from april 15th, but there's one from april 1st.I installed the WAD from Sourceforge updated on 4-15-2015
No.Finally, is there by any chance a full channel WAD for the latest revision
It's ALREADY possible.Also cyan for your next update could you please be so kind to add a simple something? Let us remove the check mark from all, I spent a bit of time classifying my games so I wouldn't have 100+ games all over the place, I kinda wanted to have a category for wii, gc, Arcade, SNES, Sega Genesis, etc. and simply accessing a category to display only and only the games of that category.
Currently that sorta seems impossible.
What you could try, is using the old 3.0 (r1180), (or older v2.3)Nope, nvm. Switching tracks still causes a crash. Actually...clicking the "HBC or Wii Menu" menu button in USBGX will make a different track play, that's weird.
Like I said, I need to make a new installer.
I already "prepared" the files to be used by the installer to download forwarders.
http://svn.code.sf.net/p/usbloadergx/code/branches/updates/
I have to "learn" how to create an installer program.
the current one has lot of unnecessary menus and codes inside its sources.
I started looking at it this summer, but computer crashed, had to reinstall everything (still haven't finish), and I didn't look at it yet.
I should maybe DELETE the installer completely?
what's so hard to extract a zip to SD card to install the loader?
That's all you need. extract a folder...
no installer required to do that, really.

yes, they are, in \files\releases\forwarders folderInstaller or not, it'd be nice if the standard download on Sourceforge included the forwarder WAD.
How can I go about installing IOS16 into slot >230? I tried d2x cIOS installer, but it's only allowing me to choose an IOS number of 37 or greater.Voxel : the loader needs to reload to cIOS to allow reading the ISO from usb instead of disc.
The loader let you choose a slot number to reload to before launching a game, but it forbid all IOS slot under 200 (because they are not cIOS, they wouldn't redirect to USB).
If you want to launch the disc itself, you can try the disc icon in the top bar, but I think it's also reloading to cIOS instead of reloading to the official requested IOS.
what you could do (if the disc launching method also reload to IOS 249) is install the IOS16 in a slot >200 (preferably > 230 or it would think it's a hermes cIOS), and set that slot for that disc, but it will work only from the disc drive not as ISO.
yes, they are, in \files\releases\forwarders folder
Why don't you support it? What could go wrong?d2x installer is used to install cIOS.
what you want to install is an official IOS (not a custom one).
just use a wad manager to install the wad.
There are wad editors to change the target slots, like ShowMiiWads.
But I really don't support doing that, it's just the idea and I thought you knew what you were doing.
If you want to launch disc from the loader, I better adds a "reload to real slot" instead of cIOS.
Okay, I'll be careful and make a bootmii dump, then. Perhaps I could practice it on an emunand?I don't support it because it's not a common practice to install IOS > 200 (same as we don't install cIOS < 200)
if you want to try, you can, but you should do a nand dump first (bootmii nand dump, to be able to restore it in case of issues), as that IOS is not designed to be in another slot and I don't know if there are internal checks on it.
What is switch app? Really, stop using this.
bootmii dump are a single binary file, that's NOT what the loader need to emulate NAND.
You need a file system copy (not a sector dump).
I don't have a crystal ball, sorry.
It's ALREADY possible.
You are just not looking in the correct menu.
