Hey guys, just modded my wii, it has usbloadergx and nintendont, and my wii wbfs show up fine and play fine, but my gamecube isos don't show up in usbloader or nintendont, if i put them in the wbfs folder instead of the games folder they show up as wii games but can't be played, but when i have them in the games folder i can't find them anywhere. I know i must have done something wrong, but no idea what. Can anyone help??

Are they loose in the "games" folder? They should be sorted into subfolders with the game ID. Ensure you have this set up correctly.
Here's an example:
Here's an example:
My games are in individual folders that has the game id as name, and the game is just named game.iso
But what does the '' first partition'' thing mean?
And how do i go about it, could be my problem i guess
Everything is on one usb drive formattet to fat32

If it's not partitioned and you only have 1, then you should be fine.
If you're using a USB drive, those tend to be more finicky to work with the Wii iirc, so it may just be incompatible? Can't say for sure. Try using a different USB port and/or USB drive if you can.
I thought when the wii games worked that meant it was compatible, but i am gonna try using a micro sd in a usb adaptor and see if it makes any difference, thanks so much!!
Would i be better off using a 1tb internal hdd in a enclosure with sata to usb cable?
I don't know for sure, so take it with a grain of salt.
Portable hard drive with a Y-splitter USB cable would be best, yes. You can sometimes get away without using a Y-split USB cable, but using one is better since it'll ensure sufficient power since the USB ports don't give very reliable power.
Y splitter is the cable with one end goint into the hdd and then 2 usb's on the other end right?
And then i put the usbs in both ports on the wii?
Make sure to your ISO is named correctly if you have file extensions hidden in windows then you might of named it to game.iso.iso and it will not show up in usb loader gx or nintendont rename your ISO to just game
Gonna try this as soon as i get home, might have been the problem all along!

Simple mistake to make. You're not an idiot. Glad it was something simple; I didn't even think of it.
I am not very good with computers, but i am learning 😂

Some wii games come in RVZ format, what do i do with them?
RVZ format is specifically meant for use with Dolphin emulator. Best option is to find a WBFS or ISO of the game instead of bothering with RVZ... if your intention is to play on a console.
Edit: If you really want to, you can convert RVZ back to ISO using Dolphin. Here are the official instructions:
This is possible because the RVZ format, despite compressing the game data, is lossless.

I just dislike that they don't let me choose the voices before the game starts. Happened with botw as well, had to change to japanese and restart. -
