Do I need to use this loader if I require simultaneous display of both FAT32 (NGC) and NTFS (Wii games) partitions?
It DOES allow that. I'm not sure if it's the only one, though. CFG might be able to and I know some VERY recent developments in WiiFlow might be able to help with that, too, (even if it is just kinda jerry-rigged)

Hi guys!
Recently I rehacked my wii and now I cannot play black ops or mw3 since it gets stuck on loading screen.
What cios am I missing and can I get them using modmii?

Thank you!

Hey Guys,
I love the simplicity of this loader, thanks for the recent fixes Cyan. I have just compiled 1208 and haven't noticed any issues yet other than certain channels not loading. That seems to be a common thread to all loaders. Has there been anymore consideration towards the tabbed version GUI for this loader?

thanks again

I forgot to ask/post this, are there issues with JAP channels not showing banners. I added a few Japanese region titles to my emunand and they play just fine, but the banner does not show in the banner view mode. Its just the default blank. I did not check in any other loader.

There are/were some JP WW games that I played that wouldn't show correctly on a non-JP system (even with Priiloader region-free ww/vc). I had to use AnyRegionChanger to get some JP WW games to work on a US Wii. Final Fantasy IV: TAY was the hardest to get working right for me.
All my JP games on my US Wii work fine in the loader displaying the banner.

We tested japanese banners and they worked fine.
I didn't test Japanese WiiWare/VC, only banners from Disc based games.


I'm still interested in the tab idea, I don't know when I'll work on it.
Sorry if I did not specify, I was referring to WiiWare. All the Japanese region banners are blank in the channel view mode. they still function, the games work just no banner display. Japanese region disc based games are working just fine, I've got a couple.

Hey does anyone know why when I press play on Windwaker it says "Do you want to copy the game to SD or delete a game on SD?".

Its really got me puzzled. Ive tried updating everything.

You either :

- Use DIOS MIOS Lite (only plays games from SD card, so you need to copy the stored game from USB to SD to launch it) -> Install DIOS MIOS
- Use a version of USBLoaderGX which didn't even know the existence of "launching GameCube games from USB" -> update to r1208

Strange problem here. It usually takes three or so tries to launch a gamecube game. Wii and VC launch no problem, but when I launch any gamecube game, the Wii will shut down, before splash screen. Then I turn the Wii back on, and will repeat the shutdown, or remain on with a black screen. Finally, after the third or forth time, the DIOS MIOS splash screen shows, and from that point on there are no problems.

Have DIOS MIOS 2.6, but the problem also occurred with 2.5.

Thanks in advance

Sounds like it doesn't like your hard drive. To verify this, copy whatever game you have been testing to a USB flash drive and try to load it from there to see if it loads more consistently. If it does, there is nothing you can do about it, other than using a different hard drive.

Hey, Smash Brothers Brawl won't load when using Ocarina codes. Other games work, just not brawl. Is it because it's dual layered, or what?

It would help if you told us wich game you are trying to load.
Also this is probably DIOSMIOS related.
