That is correct for the most part. Not entirely turned off, but the latest update available through the feature is 8xx (not sure of the exact rev)
Hooya, I recommend using the r921 Mod listed above

Is there a way to install cIOS36 rev 9 to the IOS slot 224, as I don't use this slot? I already tried to install the cIOS36 rev 9 wad (with the IOS slot changed to 224), but then Prince of Persia didn't boot at all.
PS: It is to get Prince of Persia working. Already tried a modded r929 (without return_to and dvd patch) but still didn't work. It works with CFG loader, the latest

hi all. I used the -snipped- guide to install usbloader a few days ago on a 4.2u wii and I can't seem to load a saved game when backed to a 160gb fat32 drive. Everything works though including downloading cd titles and backup but when I load the game it just a "black screen" for a few seconds and goes back to homebrew channel with the +1 counter added to the game. I've searched everywhere and can't seem to find some sort of solution. Thanks for any info.
Well GX is still giving me problems seems to only detect my external 50% of the time meanwhile all the other loaders work fine so my next question is how do I safely remove the WAD/GX from my Wii? Whenever I get another external I might go back but for now I'd rather it gone.

Nothing interesting
Just removing of some old and no more used language strings + meta.xml updated...

I've patched the main.dol with a Hex Editor, but only got it working with your modded version
There should be a (game specific) option to disable return_to and the dvd patch...

Figured but I'm new to this stuff so wanted to make sure, thanks. Going to use flow for now until get a new external just for my wii than I'll probably use GX again because I could format that drive into whatever file system I want.
i'm not going to bother updating to the newer gx. anything above rev 916 gives me a black screen.
so i have been using usb loader gx without a hitch for a while now. recently i attempted to play a few newer games and they will just not work. they are fifa world cup, sega all stars racing, kustom mario kart, and mht. the first 3 all get to various stages of their respective intro and then go to a black screen or freeze in some other way. i have tried any number of ios numbers and versions, different versions of usb loader, all with the same result. can anybody shed some light on how i might be able to fix this issue?
My humble summary of how to get Prince of Persia: the Forgotten Sands working with USB Loader GX:
Early posts had three things that needed to happen to make the game work:
- Main.dol had to be extracted, edited as described at http://www.wiihacks.com/wii-games/58969-ho...ds-working.html, and put back
- USB Loader GX had to be rolled back to an early version (somewhere in the 700s I think)
- cIOS38 had to be rolled back to rev9
Now, thanks to D34DL1N3R, the process is simpler.
I'm still running rev 14 and it worked for me too. Hope this is all accurate and it helps.

PoP w/ patched main.dol working with cIOSXrev19 base 37. The only thing I believe to be broken is returning to GX after exiting a game - it will just take you to the main Wii menu instead.
The reason I did this is because the r929 mod still has the "game sound" bug when using cIOSXrev19. Hopefully we will get an official release soon with everything fixed.
There is no longer a need for an ancient cIOS38 or GX. However, the hex editing still needs to happen. I had success extracting mail.dol, editing it, then putting it on the SD card and using it as an alternate dol. This is in the hopes that the smart people here will eventually find a fix that won't need the hex editing.
Armed with the r921m version and the edited dol, the game seems to work.

Not 100% accurate - the use of earlier versions of GX (781 and earlier) plus cIOS rev 9 does NOT require a hex edited main.dol - it runs fine as is.kjwhitcomb said:My humble summary of how to get Prince of Persia: the Forgotten Sands working with USB Loader GX:

Hi developers of the USB gx team.
My name is Zetta_X, but Z will suffice.
All of the newer builds on (not exactly 2 months) since the last 2 months have not worked properly. I remember first downloading I think 923 and USB loader gx would just randomly freeze within the first 5-8 seconds of usage. I have had random speculation to why it had errors, but I got so sick of it freezing in the first 5-8 seconds (keep in mind I was not performing any actions other than moving the cursor around) I couldn't perform the required diagnostics to eliminate any possibilities. I checked this thread and notice people were having a lot of problems with gx and it freezing however they were freezing upon loading a game rather than it randomly freezing. Whether it is the same issue I don't know. It's been almost 2 months since the release of these buggy revs and I haven't even seen a hint that it is being worked on.
I have used USB loader GX for the longest time but it is slowly falling behind in the wii scene compared to other loaders and as long as the problem exists for a relatively significant amount of people, GX may be abandoned by the people who use it.
If there is anything we can do (we as in the developers and the people who use gx) to rectify the issues of GX and get full support of the newer CIOS, please let us know. In the mean time I am using a FAT32 partitioned drive with CIOS rev 17 and Hermes rev 5. I cannot get USB gx to work past rev 921.
Thanks in advance,
Z
