Trying to load wii games from usb loader gx forwarder crashes back to wii menu, loading from homebrew channel and then gx crashes to homebrew channel. Wii games are in wbfs format on a usb stick. Loading gamecube games by dios mios still works from usb loader gx. I have the exact same setup on another wii that still works. Playing wii discs still works fine. I was told the wii performed some kind of update after switching wifi networks.

What's the best course of action? Reinstall usb loader gx? Its weird that it loads gamecube games and shows all the wii games normally but can't load them. I've searched for others encountering this scenario but haven't found any.

Wii games depend on IOS
GameCube games depend on MIOS, that's why they are still working. you probably updated the IOS to official files but MIOS wasn't touch.

Reinstall the cIOS :
- Using modmii choose option to re-softmod,
or
- Using the d2x cIOS installer if you know which cIOS you need

yeah, they are incorrect :P

The correct one are:
Slot 249 : d2x cIOS based on IOS 56
Slot 250 : d2x cIOS based on IOS 57

Try v10 beta52 first.
v10 Beta 53 has more HDD compatibility but less EmuNAND compatibility.
v8 (instead of v10) is also a good alternative.


If USBLoaderGX is working but Wiiflow is not working, try reseting the settings in Wiiflow (It's now stored on the Wii, it should be in data management. go to Wii System menu > Data management > Save, and delete wiiflow save data)

oh that makes a lot of sense. I figured they reset when i swapped out the wiiflow folders on the sd, but if its stored on the wii then that might be the trick.

Sorry to bump this but just to let anyone who might be helped, finally got access to the wii again and reinstalling cios via d2x installer fixed the issue.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
