Configurable USB Loader - Nintendo Wii.

Here is a You tube clip of what the Configurable USB Loader can do and what it looks like.




Before you can install this loader, you must have these installed already:-

The Homebrew Channel - which I presume you have if you are reading this.
IOS 236.
Hermes' IOS222/223.

How to install IOS 236

Installation procedure

1. Remove all GameCube memory cards.
* This step is very important. Do not ignore it .
2. your Wii needs to be connected to the Internet
3. Unzip the IOS236 Installer zip file and copy the IOS236 directory and its contents to sd:/apps.
* You should now have an sd:/apps/IOS236/boot.dol file among others.
4. Run IOS236 Installer from the Homebrew Channel.
5. Read the startup messages then press 1
6. Choose "Download IOS from NUS" with the D-pad.
7. Confirm your choice with the A button
8. When prompted, push A to continue the installation
9. Read about what Step 2 entails and push the appropriate button
* One would hope that you would be pushing "B" as this is a tutorial for non-pirates that want to use USB Loaders responsibly.
10. Push any button to exit when complete.

How To Install Hermes' IOS222/223

Installation procedure

1. Remove all GameCube memory cards and controllers.
* This step is very important. Do not ignore it .
2. UnRAR apps.rar to the root of the SD card
3. Start HomeBrew Channel and start the cIOS 222 Installer
4. Read the warning message and push A
5. Select IOS236 to perform the install with D-pad left/right and push A
* If you don't have IOS236, then pay more attention to the "What you should install first" section above.
6. Select to Install Custom IOS 222 and push A
7. Select IOS38 merged with IOS37 and push A
8. Wait for download and installation to complete
* If installation fails, try reinstalling IOS236
9. Start HomeBrew Channel and start the cIOS 222 Installer again
10. Select IOS236 to perform the install again
11. Select to Install Custom IOS 223 and push A
12. Select IOS38 merged with IOS60 and push A
* IOS223 gives you an alternative option for merged IOS in this way. It is exactly the same as IOS222 otherwise.
* Experiment with other merges or not merging at all if neither of the options provided here work for you.

Next you can format your SD card.

Put this download onto your SD card, open the Homebrew Channel, then select "Configurable Loader" and you are all set.

As an optional extra, you can install a Forwarder, which looks like a channel on the Wii System Menu. This means you can select this and the Wii opens the CFG Loader without having to open the Homebrew Channel.

To Do this Download This and put it on the root of your SD card, you will be told that there already is a folder called "apps", Blah, Blah , Blah Select "yes". Put the Sd back in the Wii. open the Homebrew channel and select "Wad Manager".read the disclaimer, then press "A". Select IOS 249 as the IOS version to use (this should already be selected), press "A". Press "A". Press "A". Press "A". On the next screen, ensure that "select action: <install wad>" is selected, then press "A". Wad Manager then Goes off and does what it does. "hit any button to continue", then press "B" then press the "Home" button and you are back in the HomeBrew Channel. exit to System Menu and you now have the Configurable USB Loader Channel.

Also i read that if i want to play the game (In the instruction booklet) i have to have the most up-to-date softwear and since my wii is 4.2 i dont know what to do, it also said if i dont accept the update and i have unregistered softwear it will make my wii inoperable

Just wanted to make sure this would be marked as a new message because i know editing my old post doesnt push it to be able to be noticed by others

genesis, that is not correct, you don't need the latest firmware, i am only on 4.1 and can play it, what do you mean by w/e? sorry i didn't get back sooner, i just didn't notice the post. you say you tried to back it up, what exactly do you mean by that?

wheelo

By backing it up i mean putting it on a External USB harddrive Through both of the channels you sent me.

also w/e means what ever

there should be no problem putting the game onto the hard drive. have you formatted it to WBFS? is there anything else on the hard drive? if it is formatted, all youshould have to do is 1 put the game into the Wii, 2. open the usb loader channel, then 3. press the "+" button and it should load it.
when you try this, what is happening on the screen? give me as much info as possible and it will help me pinpoint the problem

Well while i am using the USB Loader enclosed above, Before i can even install the game it says "NOTE: You are using CIOS249 rev14:it has known problems with dual layer games. It is highly reccomended that you use a different IOS or revision for installation/playback of this game."

genesis go to the wii section and get rev 17 and that will work,sorry to butt in wheelo

cIOS38 rev 17 Nintendo Wii you mean from here?

~installed, Now trying to back the game on my Removable Harddrive USB

~Back-up in progress waiting for completion
