This version is great. Installed over 10 games at once ^^

The title of the .wads dosn't matter. Call them whatever you want.
 
ok, i load the zelda twilight princes hack and when i get to this stage

6a) Press 1 & 2 until it detects your wii mote.

the program freezes, i pressed the 1&2 button for over a minute and i got no prompt to press A, what am i doing wrong, anyone help? also when i reset the Wii the white writing was stuck on my TV for a few seconds, even in the wii menu, is this normal?
 
I'd format the SD card you're using, to ensure its FAT16 and not FAT32 (remember to choose FAT16 when formatting it)
 
ah i see, i thought 1.03 alpha has support for fat 32? that is what it says on their wikpedia web page?

edit: yeah it worked first time, and with version 2 wad installer you don't even need to press and hold the 1&2 buttons down, just press the reset button once and it installs.
 
I got everything working except when it said press reset to start installing then i got error said
Opening directory "wad" .... Error! (ret=2)

Super Mario 64 (U) I am using NTSC wii I know Europes and Japans wont work on NTSC.

Thanks
 
Ok so let me get this right, i have gotten the VC games i want to install,

i need to rename the title.wad tio name of the VC game
I then need to format a SD card to FAT16
Make a folder on the SD card called 'WAD'
Copy all VC games i want to install into the WAD folder
Copy Wad-installer.elf & wad-installer.dol to the root of the SD

now what do i need to do?, do i need to build & burn a WAD Installer ISO, run the dvd in the wii with above SD card in and it will install the VC game??

you DONT need the wad-installer.dol

you name the wad-installer.elf = boot.elf
then you use the twilight hack to start the elf file.
 
Ok, so what is all this talk about people needing keys, is it just for people who are trying to dump their won VC games? Also can i use a WAD Installer ISO DVD instead of Zelda, as i dont have this game
 
Question about the multi Wad installing. When I create the folder called WAD, do I then have to create another folder with the name of the WAD I'm stalling within it for each title.wad I want to install?
 
No, just putting the WAD files in the 'WAD' called folder will be enough. You don't have to rename or refolder anything. That's so WAD Installer V1

Yeah but I don't think I can put 5 "title.wad" files into one folder. Unless I can rename them?
