Wii 4.3E/U softmod - Using Indiana Jones - Original Adventures

[Keithuk]

the guide says 2gig or less use a smaller sd card

But Nintedo say that v4.0+ can use SDHC Cards up to 32 GB. I use an 8GB SDHC card and it works perfectly.

[Keithuk]

cleaning up environment... Eventhook release failed with code 0
OK.
SD card not present? (-1056964576)
sd card not found (-1056964576)
USBGecko not found
No code found to load, hanging.

I've just had that message when I tried to reinstall HBC. I had boot.elf and bootmini.elf on an 8GB SDHC card along with loads of other apps. I put boot.elf and bootmini.elf on a 2GB card it loaded.

Its strange how 2GB and 8GB card work with certain apps?

I've managed to save my NAND to an SD card. I had to run the HBC installer along with the LEGO Indiana Jones The Original Adventures game. Then run BootMii then prepare card this saved the bootmii folder on the card along with armboot.bin, bootmii.ini and ppcboot.elf. All I need to find out is how to save the NAND back to the my wii 4.3E just in case I brick it?

There is no point in having the BootMii on the HBC menu if you can access it?

when in hbc push the home button then you should be able to access bootmii

Yes I can push the Home button and see Back, About, Launch BootMii, Exit to System Menu and Shutdown. When I Select Launch BootMii the screen just goes blank/black.

I softmodded my 4.3E with Indiana Jones and it worked fine. I updated HackMII and HBC to the latest versions and now it won't run the games from my USB HDD as it did before the update. If I run a game it jumps back to the HBC menu. Any tips

[Keithuk]

I updated HackMII and HBC to the latest versions and now it won't run the games from my USB HDD as it did before the update.

Why did you update HackMII which is HBC if it was working ok?

Which USB Loader did you use and did you have to re wad anything?

[kc57]

Updated as there was a newer version out and trying to ensure up to date. I haven't re-wadded at all. How would I go about that.

[kc57]

sorry forgot to say I am using the USB GX loader that came with the softmod pack

[Keithuk]

Well I use this Homebrew installer 0.8 which is the latest.

I've tried USB Loader GX but when it loads it says in need to use cIOS 222, 249, 250 which should be installed from wads thats why I asked. I'm a but dubious installing cIOS's at the moment.

I have the Configurable USB Loader v68 on the card and that says Waninkoko cIOS 249 is required! Hermes cIOS 222/223 is supported. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

If you put Multi-Mod Manager 13.4 in the apps folder of the SD card and load that. You can select various options from the menu IOS Manager shows you all the IOS numbers and what its used for.

IOS222 - v65280 - STUB - Hermes cIOS or STUB
IOS249 - v65280 - STUB - Wanikoko's cIOS or STUB
IOS250 - v65280 - STUB - Wanikoko's cIOS or STUB

If I update these IOS's will that remove these previous options?

There is WAD Manager in Multi-Mod Manager 13.4 as well.

if you have the homebrew channel all you have to do is install all the wads from this download following the guide it do's it all for you

Ok I've found out how to get BootMii working I Googled for more info. Why the hell they don't give proper instructions when you download hackmii_installer_v0.8 beats me. It appears you have to have the bootmii folder on the SD card that you made when you installed BootMii thats if you selected prepare SD card.

DVDx 3.4, BootMii and Homebrew on 4.3u wii

Then exit HBC and select Launch BootMii it must check there is a valid SD card inserted. Then use the Power button to switch icons and the Reset button to apply.

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZvnX1ny0Cw&feature=related"]BootMii: Demo & Tutorial[/ame] They don't give any instruction on here either.

This saves keys.bin and nand.bin files to the root of the SD card, they need to be there if you ever need to restore the NAND. Now the initial files saves by BootMii installation save in the bootmii folder armboot.bin, bootmii.ini and ppcboot.elf just keep this folder along with the saved NAND files SAFE somewhere.

Is it possible to use a 512mb SD card for this ?

[mark5]

Ok I soft modded my 4.3E a couple of weeks ago and saved the NAND files along with the bootmii folder it made.

I ran md5summer.exe and I used my bootmi folder as it came of my machine. I clicked Verify sums but it came back with 3 errors which were the files in bootmii. I replaced those with the ones from ModPack.zip and they Verified without error.

How come we can't use our own bootmii folder?

I haven't installed all 19 wads yet I'm still trying to get my head around all the procedures and why they are needed.

How come we have to have priiloader loading on bootup I just want to see the Wii desktop when it starts up?

If priiloader is run from inside the apps and all the options have been setup why does it have to run when the Wii boots up doesn't it save the changes to the Wii?

When USB Loader GX is run does that put its own link on the Wii desktop?

Why does this SD card have to stop in the Wii all the time, can't we add additional apps in the app folder? What happens if we forget to put the SD card in will the Wii be unusable or even get bricked?
