WARNING! WARNING!!!

Do not attempt to install too many VC games in 1 shot! Insure you have enough space on your Wii b4 attempting to install all the VC releases ! Your wii will become corrupt, in a sense that it wont boot properly! No System Memory left!!! You must in this case format ur wii completely!

ok, iv been here for a while but i havnt been on the forums for ages so im kinda behind on what WAD is. anything to go by? from what iv read at the moment it allows you to install VC games on your wii (confirm that for me?) and then play them. im not entirely sure if you require the twilight hack. if you do, do your really need twilight princess? as im all out of discs and im hoping you dont need it. any help?

Yeah but I don't think I can put 5 "title.wad" files into one folder. Unless I can rename them?
If you're using installer v2 you can call the .wad files anything you like.

Yep, same thing happens to me. I haven't been able to get some of the other emu loaders to work through the homebrew channel either.

I was talking with some guys, and one of them said Nintendo can easily find out about these VC games you install. He said they would also ban your Wii from going online.

Can anyone back this up, or was he just trying to scare me out of it? >.>

No one knows for sure if they know or if they will ban it's all speculations right now.

Ah

Well I guess I'll hold off on installing VC games until they know for sure (or deleting the Internet settings would work I suppose)

Well, disabling internet does not stop wii system software update. Nintendo can force system software update in newer DVD games to update Wii firmware to a version that checks for invalid tickets. Once system sw determines there are "corruptions" it could display fatal error and stop booting. Just need to be careful of all types of Wii system firmware update.

What if the wad was repacked with your own personal ticket? Would that stop them from discovering that it is fake?

can someone please help me understand this the entire VC thing is crazy right now.

I own an NTSC hardware modded Wii. I have all my WAD files I want.

How do I go about getting them on and installed onto my Wii? I have read 5 different threads with all kinds of advise that seems outdated or plain does not work from Trica signatures, to Homebrew installers to Twiligiht Hacks. Can someone tell me the easiest way to install these?

I have Wad installer 2 downloaded as well but it seems I need some kind of boot disk and I tried to make a trica signature one but it always 100% of the time says corrupt data when opening an ISO.

SO Im lost and confused and pissed right now that I can not find a nuts to bolt thread on doing this today with modern tools. Im not dumb either but can you guys please help a brother out.

only discovered this site today thanks to a friend. and followed this guide using Wad installer 2.

I must say, this is absolutely genius. All the effort to write the code and just get it working so sweetly.

Thank you!

Hi All,

Can someone PLEASE HELP ME on this!

I upped the WAD file to my SD card, installed the VC successfully on my WII.

When I removed the SD card and inserted it back into my PC, My PC says my SD card needs to be formatted.
I tried to format the SD card but it fails each time and I cannot read my SD card from my PC now.

Anyone know how to make it readable agian please?

Im using Windows Vista.

Thanks.
