Hello, I'm writing asking for help. I have been using wiiflow for about 2 years now. I've run into problems with stack dumps in the past but they usually work again after it reboots. Normal (right?). but now i'm having a persisting problem. I recently moved to a different house. I'm mentioning this because this is the only thing that changed for my wii is it's location. Now i can not get a single wii game to run through usb. every time i load a game, i first get a stack dump, then it reboots (again, this has been a normal thing on my wii. if i want to play a wii game, i know i have to let it crash and reboot, then the second time i can play), and then the second time it goes to a black screen and i have to do a hard reset of the wii. i can't get anything to load. i'm using the same usb stick, i've tried reinstalling wiiflow to my sd card. i'm lost. i don't know where to begin as far as information to get posted on here for analysis but if anyone is willing to help, i would greatly appreciate it.

i've done that with 2 different usb drives...

both of which worked before for this purpose.

I've been actively reading other posts and trying different things since my original post, that was one of the things i tried. also i ran ModMii and updated some things. I'll post an update on syscheck momentarily.

Pimpmywii found some things to update and this is the new syscheck result. Still stack dump/reboot/frozen black screen every time i try to run a wii game from usb. This is with multiple USB sticks at this point. I really have no idea what is going on. i'm going to see if i can fit a wii game on my sd card and see if that eliminates the problem. maybe you are right in that the usb ports are going bad? but the only thing that makes me wonder about that not being correct is that the wii shows me what games are present on the usb sticks. i'm very confused.

Ok, last post on this i suppose before i give up. i don't want to give up but i have no idea what else to do. i can confirm that the USB ports are working because i plugged in a powered HDD and ran a gamecube game from usb. still through the same HDD i can not run any wii games. Also i placed a wii game on my SD card in the wbfs folder, the games are showing up no matter where i place them. i just can not load any of them. they all crash every time. seems like it's a setting or something maybe? maybe something needs updated? I have no idea but it's only the wii games.

tried both fat32 and wbfs file systems. with fat32 i wasn't able to select is as source drive. with wbfs, i can select it as source drive and i'm able to view games that are on the drive but it simply crashes out with stack dump thing or freezes on black screen (hard reset necessary) or simply reboots wiiflow.

Is this a flash drive? And why d2x beta53 alt? It's really flaky and unecessary unless your first USB port is broken and you can't use it.

If you're using a flash drive, don't.

I got it running again by reinstalling the ioses that were recommended to me, basically a fresh start I think. I also bought a Western digital hard drive and formatted to fat32 so that I can use both gc and wii games. I want to thank everyone for their posts and suggestions. Even if I didn't use your advice, thank you for at least trying to help me out. But now I'm good as far as playing is concerned. I have a new issue however. The covers will not download. I have to select them manually and try and download each one. Any idea what is happening here? Everything was transferred with wiibackupmanager and the folders are set up correctly for gc games. I have no idea why I'm having trouble. Wiiflow said it was done but when I get to the game select menu, it shows wii boxes with question marks and similar for gc

Is there a way to download the covers as a pack or do I have to download them individually? I need gc and wii covers. For some reason my Wii will only do a few at a time before pretending to complete the process. If there's not a way to download them as a pack, would anyone be willing to upload them?

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    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 @ 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 @ 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 @ 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 @ 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 @ 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 @ 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
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
