Ok, I sorted it all out but my title.wad file is only 4Kb (doing Super Mario Galaxy) does this appear to be the correct filesize for such a thing?
Nope. Did you have the common-key.bin in both folders?


Yeah I have common-key.bin in both Folder 1 & Folder 2. This guide seems simple but even I can fuck it up lol I don't know what the hell went wrong..
Are they hidden by any chance?

If not, just retry!

when trying to run VC I GET THIS ERROR VC.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
You don't run Vc.exe. Run cmd.exe and write vc out.wad

You need to unhidden them. Otherwise VC would not work properly

Just use the wad posted in the topic - it has the text already deleted. Or, just open the 00000001.app in hex editor and fill with the spaces "Booting [gamexxxxxxx]..."

Holy crap I'm ignant, I forgot to unhide those files... /facepalm

Anyways, my end result of Super Mario Galaxy came out to be 978Kb and it installed fine on my Wii, but when I go to run it from the Channel it just says "Press any button to restart Wii" and it just restarts my Wii. What did I do wrong?

Are you sure you have a Super Mario Galaxy iso on the HDD? And with the exact same ID you wrote in hex editor?

I do have it on the HDD, I'm just not sure which ID it uses. How would one go about finding out the ID of a game?

Use one of wbfs gui's, they should show the ID of the game.

It's funny, in other threads, people think that the channel wads themselves contain the entire game, rather than linking to the game on the HDD using a modified USB Loader 1.1, those posts always make me chuckle.

I'm trying to make a Sonic and the secret rings channel, everything is fine until 'vc out.wad' at which point it falls down, complaining 'can't open title.tmd!'

I'm using your tools and wad and have unhidden everything. I'd love to get this working as i've got loads of PAL games i can make channels for. Any advice would be appreciated, cheers.

Once again, thanks for this guide, I've gotten it down where I don't even need to look at your guide anymore, and I've already made 6 channels.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
