We were all waiting for it, Crediar finally published it.
Here is the new DIOS MIOS that will allow you to run your GameCube games from a USB device.
The USB device must be formatted in FAT32 with cluster sizes of 32KB maximum on an active primary partition.

Features:
Fast loading from a USB device
Loads compressed or uncompressed Gamecube ISOs
Loads Gamecube discs
Emulates memory cards (NoMoreMemory)
Cheat codes support
USBGecko debugging
Configuration of different parameters
Reset / power off (R + Z + Start) (R + Z + B + D-Pad Down)
Support for Real-NAND and Emu-NAND
Screenshots in-game (R + Z on the 4th controller)
Support for two-disc games

What DIOS MIOS doesn't do:
Play games from the SD, you need DML for that.
Play games on burned discs
Audio playback via disc audio streaming
The cafe

Crazy though! usb making a comeback!! yeehaw!

Post by **MickeyBlue** » Sun 24 Jun 2012 13:43

Well I'm going to test V2 with USB to see what happens, WiiGX say this

Only the latest version of DML Booter (developed by FIX94) is suited for now.

Well after testing with only DML Booter, it's not great

it didn't recognize my games on USB (empty list) I reinstalled r59 (full list) reinstalled V2 (I see my list of games) so either the games don't launch or it launches the GameCube game that's in the drive :s (that's fishy right?) maybe it's because my hard drive isn't in max 32K clusters.

I tried everything properly on usb key
with wiiflow 505 (link below) it does find the games, but doesn't launch them!!

yep Sunday update!!! thx

Post by **MickeyBlue** » Sun 24 Jun 2012 19:12

Re V2 Update 2 works wonderfully for me now with the few games I have on my hard drive

I just changed one thing in the options
Before launching the game, press B button to enter the options
Then select "boot methode <<< new >>>"
Press the R button to go to page 3
Then check if "No Disc Patch" is set to <<< on >>>
Go back to the game list by pressing B and launch your game

For me it works so I don't know why it wouldn't for you, keep us posted.

And after doing that, even if I set it to Off my games work, weird but I'm too happy about it.

Finally one more compatible game (for me) Mega Man Anniversary Collection ^^ does Mario Power Tennis work for you? I get a Fatal Error message .... mem1.

Post by **actarus1973** » Fri 29 Jun 2012 14:47

DIOS MIOS v2.0 *Update 3c*

changelog

Fixed the Muppet error
Fixed some video stuff in GCLoader

I haven't had time to test MickeyBlue

Post by **MickeyBlue** » Fri 29 Jun 2012 14:51

OK I'm going to test with the 3d (no not gamecube games in 3D) lol, or else I'll wait for the 4 ^^ but thanks anyway

Edit: Mario Power Tennis still doesn't work with 3c, there you go.

DIOS MIOS v2.0 *Update 4*

Post by **MickeyBlue** » Sun 1 Jul 2012 14:53

I have a question, I tried the NMM option but it doesn't work with all games (ex: Megaman Collection) it stays stuck at loading the card in slot A, but is there a trick to make it work properly? or transfer a save from the GC memory card to the SD card.

Post by **Ayatus** » Sun 1 Jul 2012 14:55

Some games are not NMM compatible.

Post by **MickeyBlue** » Sun 1 Jul 2012 14:58

Ok, thanks.

Post by **flowlapache** » Sun 1 Jul 2012 19:20

I bet! adding a whole usb support to something that doesn't have any, that must be quite something!! to think that so many years after preloader it's come to this, it's really beautiful!! who would have thought a super new awesome thing on wii in 2012

Post by **MickeyBlue** » Mon 2 Jul 2012 09:48

Still no Mario Power Tennis for me whether in PAL or NTSC, SD or USB

yet it's stated as compatible on the compatibility lists

https://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/DIOS_MIOS ... ility_List
https://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/DIOS_MIOS ... ity_List#A

EDIT: Mario Power Tennis (USA) works with Dios Mios Lite r58 and Dios Mios V2 Update 4
but still not on USB with Dios Mios V2 Update 4

A question is it possible to have both Dios Mios Lite r58 and Dios Mios V2 Update 4 coexist, in order to have more compatibility?

Post by **MickeyBlue** » Mon 2 Jul 2012 18:54

Ah too lazy

well I'll wait for the other updates then, thanks.

Post by **Ayatus** » Sun 8 Jul 2012 14:46

Update DIOS MIOS v2.0 *Update 5*

Post by **MickeyBlue** » Sun 8 Jul 2012 16:35

Thanks for this news, well personally I still can't get Mario Power Tennis PAL Version to run.

Post by **Ayatus** » Sun 8 Jul 2012 19:05

Mario Power Tennis PAL Version works fine for me with a particular little setting.

With DIOS-MIOS Booter: Video Mode => PAL60
With WiiFLow in the game settings: Video Mode => 480i PAL

Post by **MickeyBlue** » Sun 8 Jul 2012 19:36

Ok, I really don't understand what's going on, it still shows "Fatal error entrypoint is not within MEM1!" and that's with any video config, so I have DIOS MIOS 2 Update 5 and DIOS MIOS Booter r27 and the latest USB Loader GX to date.

Post by **Ayatus** » Sun 8 Jul 2012 19:43

A bit of reading.

https://code.google.com/p/diosmios/wiki ... n_MEM1!%22

Basically, redo your dump.

Post by **MickeyBlue** » Sun 8 Jul 2012 19:51

Ok, thank you

I'll test it and edit my message once I've done it and if it works.

Edit: there you go, so I redid a dump of my original game, same problem, and yet it works when I launch it from the drive, so I ran the iso through Gamecube ISO Tool and now it works, so my original game works in the drive but is no longer good for making a dump, thank you for helping me

Post by **flowlapache** » Sun 8 Jul 2012 20:37

thanks. By the way for DM fans, which backup format do you prefer? iso? gcm? raw or shrunk? Is GCRex essential or do you also get good results with a 1:1 iso (made with clean rip for example).

And I was wondering if the loaders (wiiflow especially) could use the dios mios installed in sneek's emulated nand? in order to be able to play multigame discs while keeping a cmios since dios mios can't read multidiscs. thanks for your insight;)

Post by **Ayatus** » Sun 8 Jul 2012 21:09

Personally I use the isos compressed with discEX.
I see no point in using GCRex, the extracted files will take up more disk space with 32 or 64k clusters.
No possibility to play GC games on emulated nand with WiiFlow as far as I know.
