Aight heres the dealeo. Had a friend who i had set up with softmii, who then accidentally upgraded to 3.4.

I brought the wii back down to 3.2, got cioscorp back on, stupidly ran hack remover which removed hack.ini, re-ran preloader installer however, when i go to system hacks under preloader it gives me "hack.ini not found" error (cant remember exact words as im working right now).

Wondering how i can go about getting hack.ini back on, in order to do sys menu hacks under preloader.

Everything works fine, however i just want to make sure i have disc update blocking on.

Put a new hacks.ini into the root of your SD card and boot into the preloader menu. The hacks.ini in the root of your SD card will always overwrite the older one in nand.

What happens if you put a hacks.ini not supported by your machine's region? Will it brick? I need to install 0.29 on a 4.0J machine. Will it work without a hacks.ini?
