Hi. Running the game fine here. Started it earlier, watched the intros, got to Link's room, walked a bit outside. Now i went for dinner, started the game again, but it didn't remember my save file, i had to create another one and watch the intro again. Should it have save on its own? Or is there something wrong? I am afraid of playing since I'm not sure it will save my progress... Thanks.

I attempted to update to the v7 cIOS that were included with the game, but I continued to have the problem. None of them were 222, though, so I suppose that would make sense. I'll give 249 a try.

I wasn't able to select the base IOS when I installed them though; a tutorial told me to run the installer under 36, and then do a batch install of all the WADs. Should I have been able to choose the base, or is that automatic?

I am also having the game immediately restart. I just used Pimp my Wii to update everything. How do I install the wad fixes? I really don't even remember how I hacked my wii. I am assuming that I put the wad files in a folder on my SD card and use a different program to install them? Thanks for any help!

I do keep my Wii up to date, did a full Modmii install last month, but I ran SS on cfg USB, and it worked no problem. No alt dol, no nothing. It just worked.

'Yall doing something really wrong.

Well, I just installed the latest CFG and ran that from the homebrew channel and the game booted up no problem and I'm watching the Wii Motion Plus video, and it will hopefully start no problem after the video is done. Wish me luck!
