i might like like a idiot saying this but how do u get it to show on the usbloader gx. I put downloaded files into the image folder and put the same files in the image disc floder incase. but i don't see it when i start usbloader gx.
also how do u download the disc covers from that website. all i can download are the covers 4 the boxart.

Yes I've used the twilight hack so I take it that waninkokos 4.0 firmware upgrader should work?

By just using twilight hack doesn't mean that your wii has been softmodded properly, What I would do is downgrade your wii to 3.2 even if it is already on 3.2, because you need the Custom firmware that Waninkoko released. After that by all means go for the custom 4.0. The only reason you need the custom firmware is because What would happen if for any reason you decide you want to go back to your older firmware? then it would be difficult if your firmware isn't modified!!!

Hi mate please don't feel like that. It is ONLY easy when you know how to!!! Anyway this is my folder structure, Try and see if it works for you. Please back up all your stuff and format your card.

Yumraaj - no worries, hope you are feeling better

Seasider - what caddy are you using for your Seagate?

I was thinking of going for either a Western Digital My Book Essential 500GB Western Digital My Book Essential 500GB External USB: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

or Buffalo DriveStation - 500Gb Serial ATA Buffalo DriveStation - 500Gb Serial ATA Hard Drive: Amazon.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

I think the Western digital seems most popular. Currently I have a Westren Digital 250GB drive in a CNM docking caddy but the Wii does not pick this up ;-( Shame..

Sorry for late reply, been away for a few days. At the moment it is not in a caddy, it is connected using a universal hard drive lead from Maplins !! It needs a caddy as it just don't look right having a bare hard drive sat there !!!

also none of the game covers i wanted were on there, but i guess it will work.

When choosing download, it will always ask you which one to download, e.g 3D, Normal or Disc etc...

Yumraaj - So is a case of down grade to 3.2 then use Waninkoko's firmware patch for 3.2 then Waninkoko's firmware for 4.0? Is there an exploit to downgrade to 3.2 somewhere?

Sorry if i'm sounding thick here

okay i just noticed your version of the tiger woods box art. your 1 worked.

so i am guessing the sizes have to be 176x248, while i was putting on 160x225. is there anyway to change these resolution sizes.

if looking for box art try


wii.muntrue.nl am sure you will find all you need

Most of the new loaders now have the option to download them direct through it and put them in the right place. This saves you having to look for them and get the right one for your loader.
