Now, because I was trying to properly utilize Wiimmfi on my Wii (Emulator), RiiConnect24 was apparently needed in some way.
So I patch it onto MK Wii, and...

...IT DESTROYED THE ISO FILE, which means I have to get a NEW MKWii iso, then patch Wiimmfi onto it! Unless there's a way to unpatch it since I can't open the ISO anymore...

Jesus Christ...

...Either I have a bad ISO or RiiConnect is Crapware.

Nevermind, but it was like that for a while

It's highly recommended that you get a perfect ISO of Mario Kart Wii from a Redump lot and not from some suspicious looking website, make sure the checksum also matches with that too. Alternatively, you can automatically patch Wiimmfi from Priiloader by following this guide: https://wii.guide/wiimmfi.html

Once I get the shit I need to hook that red Wii up (No it's not a Wii Mini it's just a Wii... but Red.) I can file dump it for the NAND file, even though my laptop is a piece of shit that crashes Dolphin every five races.

Your dump was probably not clean. Also, every time you patch game files, something can go wrong. Just copy your files before patching something. That should be basic knowledge.

But yeah, RC24 is the culprit here lol

Number 1 rule of thumb with file modifications: keep a copy of the data you want to edit in case it goes wrong, so you can go back to its previous state.

Shit happens, and only yourself could be blamed for willingly patching your .iso file without taking the necessary precautions beforehand, I'm afraid.
