Feedback Homebrew Homebrew game Black screen when opening MKWII after installing it as WAD on vWii

[AymericFR]

You were using the vWii mode to run the kart game as i understand, but the game doesnt load in usbloadergx as a wbfs in your usb drive and you got a black screen. (seems like a vWii cios problem, as some games run with cios 249 and other with cios 250).

Then
a) you installed a Wad (?) into the virtual wii and again the game fails to load?... or
b) you installed the Wii U downloadable retrocompatible version of the game into the console memory and fails to load?
-------------------------------
or
Try another "legally obained" backup from some other site and copy the game in your vWii usb drive using the "wii backup manager" and change the cios runing it in the usbloader gx options for that game.
or
Try another "legally obtained" downloadable Wii U version for the game and install it in your Wii U usb drive with wupinstaller.
-----------------------
Note: Wii U usb drive must and is totally different from Wii/vWii usb drive
Note2: vWii cios are totally different from normal Wii cios, NEVER install or mix from each other or you will brick the Wii/vWii

I however knew where I had to install cios 249, 250 and 251. Unfortunately nothing had changed. There is also no way to convert a wbfs file to WAD quite easily and all my channels installed thanks to the WAD installation work like News channel, apart from Wiilink patcher which refuses to install all the channels presented for no reason. I was able to install MKWII on the wiiu menu version but useless because it is not possible to take advantage of the online mode by using either a patch or a specific dns

Ok i think i understand your problem, but first try to use another translator, one like https://www.deepl.com/translator because is hard to comunicate concepts when someone is not native with the forum language.

On the subject:
1.- Format again your usb drive (in this case the 4GB one you are using on vWii) in Fat32 with 32 cluster size.
2.- Use wii backup manager to copy the game to the drive.
3.- Start the Wii U in vWii mode or change from Wii U to vWii menu.
4.- Now In the Vwii mode, connect the pendrive on the top usb connector in the back of your Wii U console.
4*.- That is the only conector the Vwii accept for usb drives, no other one.
4**.- Dont use the front usb conectors or the bottom one from the back because they arent recognized in Vwii.
5.- Open your favorite game loader and load the game with the apropiated cios.
6.- When you are done, return to the vWii main menu and unplug the usb drive.
7.- Change to Wii U mode now.
7*.- if you keep the usb drive on Wii U side ,it will be formated to a Wii U device and it will be useless on Vwii again.
-----------------------------------------------

For the Wad problem, the first and most important is to not install dubious WADs in the console or you can corrupt the vWii nand or worse, you can brick it. (Even worse if you are using a real wii too).

I could sugest you to delete the mk Wad you installed but at this point i dont know if that solution could have consecuences in corrupting your Vwii nand, so i leave to others to give you better advice on that matter.

Ok I will try to do that this week. The problem therefore is that I could not take advantage of the riiconnect24 (and even wimmfi) if I have to go back to Wiiu mode if my game is installed in this menu.
