Did you read and follow Cyan's detailed posts?
You can't just put any iso anywhere and expect it to work.
If you did, can you give more details like where you put the iso and how it is named? Is your HDD being recognized at all?

yes but Cyan never told me how to put the .iso on HDD. He only made a reference which I've tried with that WiiBackupManager_Build78.

you are a little bad faith, because I did, and I provided all you needed.
I told you you can use Wii backup manager with the option to not keep iso format on NTFS, and I explained which option you had to change in the program in case you want to convert .iso to wbfs but don't want to split wbfs in multiple parts. There's literally an option named "use ISO on NTFS drives", what is so much complicated to understand that you couldn't find without me telling you to "click on the empty white square box in the front of that line of text"? (hey, you can't even find where the options are located? don't tell me you want us to come to your house to click the word "options..." for you).

I also told you can put the file manually on your HDD using your computer's file explorer if you don't want to use WiiBackupManager, and I provided the full list of compatible paths you could choose from.
just read, put a little bit of will and time to understand what you read, and do things accordingly. that's really not hard as long as you even try. if you can't understand, I'd suggest to stop trying to hack any console, it's dangerous and you can make things worse by not following what you are told or asked.


you'll notice that you still haven't answered the question he asked and that we are all waiting for :
Where did you put your ISO ?
which path and filename did you choose?
is your HDD recognized by USBLoaderGX?
Since your first post, you are always saying things are not working and expecting us to (magically

) know what you did and find a solution.


personally, I still don't understand why you chose to use the .iso format, when it's so much easier to go with FAT32 and wbfs conversion.
but, it's your choice. the loader is compatible with iso, so you can use it if you want, I don't restrict or forbid that from the loader. it's just waste of free space on the drive, but VERY easy to setup in WiiBackupManager.

That's what you've told me "You can use Wii Backup Manager to put the file on NTFS, or just copy it manually with your file explorer. You can set the option in the program to not convert the ISO to wbfs, and not split the file in multiple 4GB parts if you don't want to split but still use .wbfs format too.
the advantage is that the program will know the "GameID6" and will rename the file and/or folder for you.
if you don't want to use that program, you can find the ID here :
http://www.gametdb.com/Wii"

I do not find any option called "You can set the option in the program to not convert the ISO to wbf" I didn't find any. And "just copy it manually with your file explorer" is not working.

please, help yourself and stop trying to hack your console.
either you really don't understand, or you force yourself to appear more stupid than you are by acting like it's my fault you can't find the option. if you can't make a difference between the option name, and a grammatical sentence explaining you that an option exists to do what you want (option which like I said can't be more explanatory by itself, only if you took the time to even look), just don't hack the console yourself, ask someone else to do it for you.
you are stubborn and not listening nor answering our questions.
I will let other people help you, if they still want to.

Good luck.

You could tell me exactly the option and the steps but you like to make people feel bad. You could tell : put the .iso on the ROOT of the HDD, open the program, go in Settings -> ... do that and that's all. But you don't know how to do it or you just like to post.

Jesus, stop being stupid. This topic is all over this forum many times and there are instructions for WBM.

1. Load Wii Backup Manager, go into settings, find option to split games at 4GB and turn it on.
2. Select "Drive 1" tab and pick the drive you want your Wii games on. It will prompt you to make a wbfs folder if there isn't one.
3. Select "Files" tab and browse to the file or folder you want to copy.
4. Go to Select>Items not on drive 1.
5. Click Transfer>Drive 1.
6. Done.

If you want to do Gamecube games you have to do it manually. The disc images go in /games/ rather than /wbfs/ and the follow the same format:
/games/Game Name [TITLEID]/game.iso (or disc2.iso for second disc)

Nobody is trying to make you feel bad. You just want everyone to tell you exactly what to do without looking for yourself first.

You can use Wii Backup Manager to put the file on NTFS, or just copy it manually with your file explorer. You can set the option in the program to not convert the ISO to wbfs, and not split the file in multiple 4GB parts if you don't want to split but still use .wbfs format too.

and you still insisted not to answer my questions...
Anyway, I am out.

Just tell me where to put the .iso. The .iso name is Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Thank you dude is working it's creating a wbsf folder then a Super Smash Bros. Brawl [RSBE01] subfolder and after the RSBE01.iso same dimension as the original .iso. Much appreciated mate you explained very well.

    @K3Nv2, afaik yeah but I also don't think that it runs on home grade routers like openwrt/dd-wrt does. OPNsense runs on full-on x86 PC hardware
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Sadly openwrt seems to be dying for support unless it's just. Anew name
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Like made by the same devs different architecture
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    idk, I mean it had a new release back in March https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/releases
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Not sure how recent hardware it supports though
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I mean for 1st party routers iirc linksys use to support it
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    ahhhh that I have no idea
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    pretty cool though if so
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Or from what ive heard ways to set custom imgs for 1st party routers so locked down now days
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    OPNsense VM and specs and specs of system it's running on. https://imgur.com/a/S9wgGUD
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I've turned more features on in OPNsense lately and it's getting kind of high on RAM usage, I see. Probably bump that up to 4GB soon
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I wanna make a 8core router with support for 20gbps doesn't even sound that silly lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I only have 1 gig internet but internally I have 10 gig connectivity for everything on my lan lol

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    silly shit
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    eventually this desktop is going to act as a server too, just for the hell of it. Because this PC is WAY fucking overkill for how little I use it.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    And once I do that, my desktop OS that I interact with is just going to be a virtual machine and use GPU passthrough to connect everything
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Send it to me ffs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    No because it's my desktop lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
