If I post a screenshot here will FIX94 see it? (is he French?)

I discovered another problem while writing my tutorial for using a Loader on Mac OS X:

After a few battles on the command line with the terminal, I finally managed to format a disk to WBFS under Mountain Lion!

I then transferred a game, Wiiflow properly detects my partition, detects my game, it reads the banner etc... and when I launch the game, Wiiflow simply restarts my vWii and I end up on the desktop...

Any idea?

@Fix94 is German, if you post your screenshot here, you'll need to describe your problem in English.
Even then and unless you strongly push him to come here, it's unlikely you'll get an answer.

It's relevant enough that you write your tutorial from an official version, but that seems more debatable regarding bug reports.
It's likely that these bugs have already been fixed in the version currently under development.

The vWii being different from the Wii, it's therefore worth setting up a test protocol to determine whether the issue comes from WiiFlow, the d2x, the vWii or the transfer tools for Mac OS X.
  • Did you test on the Wii?
  • Did you test with another version of d2x?
  • Did you test with another game?
  • Etc...

Thanks for this answer.

Indeed I'll have to proceed by elimination. This game works perfectly when I transfer it to my disk in FAT32. So already it's not coming from the iso.

I'm on vWii, and I no longer have a classic Wii.
So I only have one (or maybe 2) possible choices for the d2x cIOS. (from memory I'm on alt53 v10 then)

I'm going to test formatting my disk to WBFS under windows in a virtual machine, then transfer the game to see if it's coming from the Mac tools.

If same problem, then it will certainly be from the Wiiflow rev.

The tutorial I'm writing (on Wii Addict) for Mac OS X doesn't take into account which loader you use. It only deals with the FAT32/NTFS/WBFS formatting part.

If I notice that the problem comes from wiiflow, on which thread can I inform FIX94?

Weird thing since I updated Wiiflow, Super Mario Galaxy (the 1st one) no longer shows up.
I redid the iso, to be sure, but nothing changes.

Has anyone already had a problem like this?

The forwarder channel does its job very well. Making a channel could bring you bugs. Nothing more

I say IOS250 like IOS58 it's the same... I'm not too skilled at that... :oops:
It's just so it's easier for my daughter...
Click on the channel rather than going into the homebrew channel...
That's it... Just for that... ;)

Careful to properly choose one for the Wii and not the vWii!
I took the forwarders from the first page...
In my case: "StarNight-FIX94v14b-forwarder-DWFA.wad"
I took Wiiflow 4.1 r436
I assembled them with CustomizeMii in IOS58...
And black screen when I click start...?
But Wiiflow 4.1 r436 does start fine through HBC...

WiiFlow doesn't like being put into a channel, it prefers forwarders.
In short, you have no choice. Also, there's no point putting it into a channel.

Quite the stubborn one this guy. ^^'

The forwarder channel (the one you took from the first page) installs it without modifying it. It will launch wiiflow which is in apps just like hbc does but... without going through hbc. Happy end

With Wiiflow 3.1 r663 it worked perfectly... that's why I was asking but I'll do it that way then... :mrgreen:

So I put "StarNight-FIX94v14b-forwarder-DWFA.wad"
And WiiFlow 4.1 r436 in my SD
And it runs perfectly...
Just that now when I launch a game I get a white progress bar at the bottom of the screen before the game launches... Which I didn't have with 3.1 r663... Is that normal...?

Another question...
I got a console on 4.3E where I installed the HACK just like mine without issues...
I cloned my hard drive without issues...
When I launch Wiiflow I see the games and when I launch one I also get the white progress bar but it stays stuck at the start and I can't do anything except restart the console...
But when I plug in my hard drive the console works..?
My hard drive is USB 2.0...
The other hard drive is USB 3.0... Could that be the cause...?
Any idea...?
Thanks in advance...

The loading bar, that's normal.

USB 3.0 HDDs seem to not get along well with the wii.

No Loader can solve this problem...?

Or maybe he's just lucky... :p

That can indeed come from the cIOS but it's more often a hardware compatibility issue and that regardless of the loader and its version.

It's all the more annoying since USB 3 is tending to become the standard as a commercial product.

So I installed "cIOSX d2x v10 beta r52"
And the 3.0 hard drive works in both consoles...
I was still on "cIOSX d2x v8" that was surely the issue...
Thanks anyway for the info... ;)

there's no reason for USB3 drives not to work, the usb3 standard requires 100% compatibility with usb2
I just installed a samsung M3 usb3 drive (HX-M500TCB/G), all compact and all black, that goes great with the black wii

Regarding wiiflow 4.1.1 it can't have been tested much because it sees all the wbfs partitions on all my drives as empty
if I try to dump a disk, at the end it causes a huge crash and it still doesn't see anything

back to 4.1 and everything works

It's not a matter of compatibility with usb2 or usb3, it's a matter of compatibility with the controller.

Replacement of the forwarders that were causing issues with WiiFlow 4.1.1 and addition of Bootmii-Forwader-Loader-DWFA for those who have Bootmii installed as boot2.
