how do i get them hacks on the preloader 29
copy the hacks for your system menu version and region (found in my previous post) to a txt file. Then rename the txt file to hacks.ini

place it in the root and enable them with preloader.

Updated to 4.1, then I installed preloader. I copy and pasted the 4.1U hacks and when I went into the preloader menu to set the hacks it gives me different errors:

Syntax error: expected EOF at line 10

Too much spaces and maybe a unexpected character. Remove unnecessary chars, or do a copy and paste again from here

As of 4.0, "region free video games" no longer patches the GC game's video mode for some reason. As for the "Region free (SD) Channels", not a clue. All of my non-PAL channels were regionfreed prior to installation.

Hey guys,

I figured out a reason why some people are getting a error that says no hacks were found for your system menu version: you are not using a Windows operating system. Windows, Mac, and Linux all have their own separate way of representing new lines in a text file (in hexadecimal, windows: 0D0A, linux: 0A, mac: 0D). When Preloader is processing the text file, it is only looking for the Windows new lines. You can find a Windows-type hacks.ini for 4.1U here: http://www.mediafire.com/?irfyvu8jlha

For future reference, to convert a text file to the Windows type on Linux, do this (Debian, Ubuntu, and variants):
CODEsudo apt-get install tofrodos
unix2dos
Then will be ready for Windows (and preloader, lol). To reverse it, use the dos2unix command.

For Macs, idk. I don't use Macs haha. But you could probably find a text editor that supports changing the new line type.

Edit: Wow, just after posting this, look what I found on WiiBrew:

Wrong linebreaks

If you are using a Mac or Linux, you will probably have the wrong kind of linebreaks if you just copy this list into a hacks.ini. Preloader needs dos-type linebreaks, so you have to use a tool like unix2dos to change the linebreak format.

Ok - what am I missing ? (apart from a few brain cells for not being able to remember what I did last time).

I have upgraded to 4.1E fine but when I run the preloader boot.dol (through HBC) it just sits there with the warning about turning off the wii if you don't want to continue ?

The Wii has bootmii installed as well if that makes a difference.
