*2 cents*

Downloaded this release, extracted IOS38, installed IOS38, burn disc (untouched), load disc in Disc Channel, start and it works.

3.2U Wii and Wiikey v1.

*/2 cent*

Interesting, I've got a 3.2U and Wiikey v1 also, extracted the update using WUSE, installed the IOS38 wad and AC still wants to update my wii :-\ could I be missing another IOS that's needed?

Hopefully I can figure this stuff out, I've been away for a while and I'm not too up-to-date on installing IOS/cIOS's etc.

I also turn on update blocker (not sure the exact name) on the Wiikey v1 config disc. Maybe you need to turn it on.

Has anyone tried a full iso (unscrubbed)by goomba on 3.4U with wiikey1.9x ..I'm getting a black screen ..anyway to get around this.. all my previous backup games and wiiware works after 3.4u except animal crossing. please help.

We are talking about the game data size and thats what Animal Crossing has: 16MB of useful data. Animal Crossing Wii (Scrubbed) has 442MB when compressed and 4,37GB when it's not. Animal Crossing GC (wiped) has 16MB when compressed and 1,36GB when it's not. So, whats the difference? It's really that simple...

You can't talk about the compressed size as the "real" size. The real size is obviously the wiped game uncompressed.

If I got the Goomba release (the 4gb one), is it same to update? I have a US Wii on firmware 3.2U.

yeah i think that's because you're trying to connect a pal game card of ac to a ntsc copy of ac:cf and i think it's been said that the pal game will only work with the pal copy

Hope someone can help me here.

I have a PAL Wii fitted with a Winja running 3.2e (just downgraded from 3.4 using this http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=118...p;#entry1583601 - The 3.1-3.4 Twilight/Downgrade/Gamma Tutorial, All in one).

I have an NTSC iso of AC which I have run through regionfrii & brick blocker.

I can start the game using gamma o.3 launcher but after a few second it say 'the disc cannot be read'.

I have installed all the IOS's in the tutorial, even down to the 'You can also optionally install IOS38, as in some cases it is needed to run Animal Crossing' - but it still won't work.

Any clues?

Thanks.

Hey could you PM me telling how you sorted it? I tried the same method as you and cannot get it to work.

Ahhh, this is the thread I was looking for. All the info right in here.

I'm using the Wiikey...so if I want to get the game working without running the update (which would brick my wii?) I just follow this guide?. Hope it works.

Saw the microphone for the game at Gamestop and it was like 30 bucks or something crazy...I'll just type out all my messages in that case. Even though it's a pretty big pain

 

[ropeadope]

Sorry to bump this again but I've been reading more and am still a bit confused.

Should I just do the update that is required to run animal crossing? Nothing bad will happen? I'm using the Wiikey, should I turn on some brickblock feature or something? Thanks.

 

[JPH]

Working fine on my Wiikey.

Ahh...haven't played my Wii in so long and this game is definitely a good game to start playing.
It seems so different, though, as I feel Animal Crossing truly belongs on the Nintendo DS rather than the Wii or the Gamecube.

I'll hook up with some of you Tempers later and we can visit each other's town and do activities and such.

I'm just now installing the homebrew channel on my 3.2 Wiikey chipped PAL Wii.

Just making sure, for following the instructions here (http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Updating_IOS_by_hand) when it says "Move IOS38-64-v###.wad from the root into the wad folder" what numbers should those #'s be?

 

[Mic_128]

Anyone know?

With Animal Crossing the CycloDS doesnt, because Animal crossing doesnt use Wii Conectivity it uses DS Download Play to transer to the Wii, and you need the original game for it to work, and it also has to be from the same region, which means that EUR DS version will not work with this release.

cyclo ds supports 100% download play also who says everyone is using a europe version of the game? i have the american version.

i would have thought it uses wii to ds connectivity like Pokemon battle revolution as it uses the same features and functions, what makes you think different?

Animal Crossing is old which means that it doesnt support Wii Connectivity, so connecting to the Wii has to be done through Download Play.

Actually it is NOT possible because FC's don't recreate the format of an actual gamecart they emulate it and store it in .nds files which means when you run the little "Moving Van" program it's supposed to go into the predetermined file structure that is on the original card but not on your FC.

Ergo, the transfer of files from DS to Wii is inherently impossible with the standard flashcard unless you know how to or own a card that can be reconfigged to run like the ACTUAL card with the SAME file structure, you're going to have to start all over again and won't be able to move.

Sorry
