Sorry, but read the rules again. Uploading these files is illegal, but you could describe how to extract the files from the .iso.

I wonder if this method will work for the Sam and Max series of games? I realise it would mean only playing one game at a time, but that wouldn't be a problem.

Perhaps we should edit the compatibility list. I already did it for MoH:H2 Pal

http://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/index.php/USB_Launcher_v1

I have the PAL ISO of MOH:H2 (RM2P69) and haver searched this ISO for the file "game.dol" but it is no where to be found! What file exactly do I extract? I tried "main.dol" in partition 2 - DATA but it didn't work! Any help please?

Open WiiScrubber, then load your MOHH2 ISO.
Click the + on Partittion 1, scroll down to the bottom. It's 7th from the bottom just above gui directory.

Also for anyone else who wants to know what to call the .dol file. Listen!

Open WiiScrubber, then load your ISO, right click "WII DISC" at the top and select "change boot ID"
This will display your 6 digit game ID. Then copy it and then click cancel.
Browse to the .dol file you require then right click and select extract. Paste the Game ID you just copied into the file name and add ".DOL" to the end of it. so would be "RM2P69.DOL" for my version of MOHH2 then save it to your pc or SD dol folder.
Remember to use uppercase caps and not lower case.

COD3 does not work as soon as you start a new game it restarts the wii and frontend.dol seems like the one. there are like 13 dols in that game.

would be nice if someone could make a wii app that does this.
one that extracts the .dol from the disk or usb installed game to the necessary folder and renames it to the titleid seem like that would be very easy to make and simplify this for some ppl it could even be implemented into the loaders.

I don't know why this is so complicated, I simply patched my ISO with iospatcher to 249 and those games works good.

Because some of these games(Metroid Prime 1&2) are nearly unplayable from disc because of the slow reading speed?

Hi everyone.
I don't understand the last step which is to place the 6-digit.dol on a folder I have to create on my usb.
How can I add a folder and the dol although we can't acces to it on windows because it says that usb is not formated.

So, how can I place this file ? And where exactly ?

I've created SD:/alt-dols/ on my SD card's root, but I use the USB key.

If you can help me please.

Ps: I'm french.

Hi Timtris,

yo have to copy the dols to your dol folder on your sdcard

you can change the path of this folder at settings-custom path
unlock your loader before

name the dol like gameid.dol the game id i shown under the cover at the start screen of the loader

turn alternate dol on at settings of the game

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
