Thanks, is they're a scrubbing option on this? I didn't see one but was wondering.

Wbfs files are "scrubbed" by definition

I actually saw your post, I already tried doing that and installing stuff but nothing is working. I got rid of all my games anyway because I think they may have been corrupt or something when I unplugged my HDD when it was formatting..


Is they're anything else I can use? you guys never seem to update your links and when I went to try CFG instead the links were all dead.

I tried another syschek anyway as iv'e tried installing more CIOS/iso's so it may be different now, but I can't seem to find the report? I found a report but it seems old and oudated, I also got some sort of error message I can't remember when I looked up the report.


Can you just link me a better loader or something? I am getting really frusterated with USB loader GX and I heard it's kind of a piece of shit anyway now.


Does USB loader GX support cios files?

No idea where you heard USB Loader GX was a "piece of shit". It's quite the contrary, it's probably the most feature complete and visually appealing USB loader and the only one that still receives some support. WiiFlow is good too.

it's just what happens when someone don't understand how something work, compared to using something not working.
that's too bad to not properly learn how to use something and categorize it as bad right away.

I don't say it's bug free, and everything work fine.
I know there's a hdd detection issue, I know gpt has a bug. that's probably the 2 most important issues to make it work better and more straightforward, but he also had the hdd issue with other loaders so it wasn't the loader's problem but his setup. I tried to first fix the setup, then focus on the loader's problem and it was just that : not understanding what to do (cIOS setup, filename path on hdd required by the loader). Of course, expecting programs to use things the way you want is rarely working, you need to first learn the requirement of all the device and software you want to use and follow them.
That's also what happened to my firefox addon, it required a specific browser setup, and users not willing to do it or not following the setup tutorial flagged the addon as not working. I had lot of bad comments and low rating because of that.

Are you sure? it just kinda boggles my mind how big some of these games are and I figure maybe there's a way to just cut out some of the extra junk data they put in to fill the disc.

we are sure, the wbfs is even more than scrubbed.
scrubbing is used to replace unused data with 0xFF, resulting in a same size ISO file, but with better compression rate (.rar gives smaller files)
wbfs completely removes the unused data, like the ciso.

Ah I see ok,thanks.
