So I've read around that there's an emuNAND for the Wii. Although I could not find a good or descriptive tutorial for me to understand. Can you link me to a good tutorial or create one? I'm sorry if I'm asking much, I just REALLY want emuNAND. Thanks for any comments! :)

There's something called Sneek which allows you to load a NAND from either USB or SD without affecting your actual console's NAND.

Download ModMii and use the wizard provided to get started.

If you plan to use your own NAND dump (which can be dumped using BootMii), you will need to use either ShowMiiWads or NANDextract to extract it.

Use this! it loads via the Homebrew Channel, it gives you the choice to load from either SD or USB (although, it wouldn't let you choose which emuNAND to load though).

or... you could always to patch the .dol to any wad/channel of your choosing, install and load it via the Wii Menu instead.

Alright, I'll try it. Thanks for helping! :D

Check out this guide I wrote for someone here (https://gbatemp.net/threads/usb-loader-gx.149922/page-1075#post-5929568). The only thing I left out was that I would suggest you create your emunand on your USB drive through the latest version of USB Loader GX (which is r1260). Basically create a folder on your USB drive called "nand" and then go to custom paths in USB Loader GX and select that folder as your emunand path. Then go to features and choose "Dump nand to emunand". When that is done you can then take all your wads and use the wad manager feature in USB Loader GX to install all your wads to your emunand. Then follow the rest of the guide I linked to to get everything working. If you have any questions or need any help let me know.

I finally got wiiware/vc games but with two issues.
@Clutz450
On USB Loader GX V2.0 Rev1268:
1. The game title is some strange code, for example Adventure Island Wiiware is "WTME".
2. The first time the game booted up quickly. the second time it took about 4 minutes.

Maybe you've set that game to boot in neek2o mode. That's not necessary for the majority of games. It's only needed for some n64 vc games and some wiiware (konami rebirth series and a few others)

I didn’t change any settings, and i don’t have neek2o installed. Where can i find these settings so that I can check them?

Don't know, I never used usb loader gx. I just guessed, because all loaders have more or less the same features.
Maybe some gx users can know this

Okay, I asked in another thread, as well. Btw, you're the guy that made the "Rhapsodii Shima" new wiiflow theme? It's fire af, but I don't use wiiflowlite and am using usb loader gx, hence I have taken your theme and am currently implementing some of the imagery into a usb loader gx theme. I will share once complete, it won't be as nice and smooth as yours, but it will at least look similar and pay respect towards your idea :)

Thanks, I'm glad that you liked it. I'm working on a new release, btw. With a reworked settings menu and full support to all the latest wiiflow lite features. Still need to find the time to finish it :unsure:

Hello, I don't know what's wrong? I have a wii console converted by modmii, all defect files installed, appropriate files created for SD and USB
It enters emunand correctly, when I click 1 on the computer, all the games on the USB drive are shown, when I select the game I click A and move to the virtual disk, it doesn't load?? Gamecube games are displayed correctly, what could be wrong?

Your description doesn't make sense, try again plz
OK, the point is that when entering NAND mode in this virtual Wii, there is a disc icon in the upper left corner, when I click on Wiilot 1, a list of games on the USB drive is shown, after selecting the title, I click A and an animation of the loading game disc should appear, there is no nothing, just for Gamecube games the disc appears. I hope I wrote it correctly now, what could be the reason? a year ago it was ok, I did the same thing :)

Yes I wanted to ask about the issues it is known that emunand works with fat32 32kb, I tried before with 64kb but after clicking uneek2o the information shows up and it stops, nothing loads And my question is whether uneek +dl can you use fat 32 32 kb on an SD card and a fat32 64kb usb drive?? Should sd and usb be 32kb 😅🙂

Whatever the default cluster size selected by fat32 gui formatter should be ideal. Usually this is 32k, but sometimes it's different, iirc any deviations are mainly for very small drives though

Bad rips? Emunand missing components for some unlikely reason?

Yes I managed to solve this problem I used the ready-made uneek dl file and now it works 😅🙂
And as for the earlier question, do the sd card and usb disk have to be the same fat32 32kb cluster? Can I format sd 32kb cluster and usb 64kb cluster? Will it be good for emunand to work.
🙂
