The current public version of USB Loader GX lacks all of the code necessary to look for and load Wii games from an SD card. GameCube games can be loaded from an SD card though.
I've got the cIOS' installed as well as the Hermes cIOS', but i still can't boot the games. I've tried several formats and settings, but I always crash to the homebrew menu when booting up a game. any clue?
Hey guys, i got this load on my wii for centuryes, and is working well, for wii and game cube games, how can i use a wii u pro controller to game sube games ?where is the syscheck report?
When I try to start a VC or WW game from my emuNand I just get a black screen. Anyone know how I can fix this?
The emuNand is a copy of my internal Nand and is on my SD. It was created with USB Loader GX and the games start there without any problems. But since USB Loader GX is not running properly at the moment, I switched to Configurable USB Loader Mod where I would like to play games from my emuNand too.

I don't know if cfg usb loader supports emunand or not, are you sure that it does?
Anyway, have you tried installing vc/wiiware wads anew once you're in the Emunand, or with Showmiiwads? I suggest trying it.
Also, there's a game compatibility with wiiware on emunand you should be aware of, as not all of them are compatible.
What region is your emunand, and what region are your installed wads? What video cable are you using?
I'd recommend using this modded version of usbloadergx by @blackb0x btw.

Latest Cfg usbloader mod (from modmii) does in fact support emunands and nintendont
The emuNand and VC/WW games have previously worked in USB Loader GX. The emuNand and the Wii are both PAL (EU), the VC/WW Games are Europe, and one is Japanese but patched to English and Region Free. The cables are the original red-white-yellow cables. I already have the USB Loader GX from @blackb0x , but as noted above it does not work properly at the moment.
I have downloaded CFG USB Loader with ModMii and replaced my version with it, and also copied my emuNand from SD to USB. Now when I want to start a VC or WW game I end up in the Homebrew Browser.
When copying I noticed that a few new folders were created on my SD card (import, sys, ticket, title, tmp), and the same now on the USB. It's like CFG USB Loader is trying to create a completely new emuNand. Is it possible that I did not declare the path correctly? I currently have nand_emu_path = usb:/emuNAND set in sd:/usb-loader/config.txt. Should it be nand_emu_path = usb:/emuNAND/? Or any different?
With nand_emu_path = usb:/emuNAND/ I end up back in the homebrew browser again.

In your \apps\usbloader_cfg folder have you put neek2o.dol and mighty.dol in there? I believe they are required for emunand.
I am using that version and that is all I had to do. I just relied on the default path for the NAND dump.

Yeah. I noticed he said he just copied it from ModMii so I was wondering if he copied all the directories/files or just some.
A long long time ago I modded my Wii. So recently I cleaned it (virginize it), mod it again.
Now, I am unable to load my games using CFG loader v70. It says cIOS222 something then will stucks on that screen.
I used d2x v10 for modding.
I am able to use USB Loader GX but I prefer CFG loader as I like to customize my banner. a single banner on CFG.
Any help on how to get CFG loader compatible with IOS58? Thanks

you never need to "clean" the modded, but you did it, reinstall all the cIOS you originally have, the 249, 250, 252, 222, 223, etc.
Thank you for the quick reply.
I figure it out.
I downloaded meta.xml and I use CfgLoaderConfigurator.exe to change the IOS.
Ran into a similar situation earlier this year after modding a 2nd Wii, and at the end of the day when it came down to it, my issue stemmed from user error being that I overlooked a specific instruction from the Wii.guide site. Glad to hear you were able to get things up and running after troubleshooting.
I've just installed the latest cfg loader. Everythings works fine except Emunand.
I have my emunand in usb:/nands/eu_pl (both usb loader gx and wiiflow lite detects it)
I have both mighty.dol and neek2o.dol in loader_usb folder.
However, cfg loader says i have no games in my emunand. What's wrong here?
Incidentally, booting into uneek from cfg loader doesn't work either. Whenever I try, it hangs while it's writing nand files into the root of the usb but that's not what a want (once again, I can access uneek just find from usb loader and wiiflow).

Well, the loader definitely let you choose between Wii, Gamecube and VC games, so I asumed those would be part of an emunand. It also allows emulation saves full, which might be an emunand option? (i don't get the difference between usb and full tbh). Maybe other users have faced a similar issue.
Wii/GC games should work regardless if they're for emunand (Sneek/Uneek) or sysnand, as they both share the same directory. As for VC games, it depends on where you install them, emunand or sysnand.
Again, i'm not sure if CFG loader supports emunands, were you having issues with either usbloadergx and /or Wiiflow Lite, and that's what led you to look for CFG loader?
emunand works very well on both if you haven't tried it..
There's "full" or "partial" save emulation. It's only for Wii saves, it creates saves on your usb or sd instead of on the sysnand. And has nothing to do with the Uneek/Sneek emunand..

I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer -
@
TwoSpikedHands:
Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?

@
Sicklyboy:
@TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one -
@
Sicklyboy:
I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
@Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!

@
TwoSpikedHands:
I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
-
@
TwoSpikedHands:
I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though

@
The Real Jdbye:
@TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway -
@
The Real Jdbye:
and realistically they wouldn't
be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves -

do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files
) -

@The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
