I use Wiiflow WFL and I followed a tutorial to fix Wiiflow from kicking me to the system menu after starting. Then, I booted up Pikmin 2. It works and there have been no problems.
I then tried Super Mario Galaxy with the same settings as Pikmin 2 and I was kicked to the sys menu. I'm booting from an SD card for both. Both have IOS 250 selected. Force Load IOS 250 as well.
I'm new to modding, and i'm using a Wii that had the homebrew channel added a while ago.

Good morning,

your syscheck report looks correct.

do you start your game from the HBC or from the wiiflow forwader channel?

Did you test your games with the default CIOS 249 (all default settings)?

what version of wiiflow are you using?

is this a good SD card and format FAT32?

Thanks for answering! I started my game from the HBC. Default settings send me back to the sys menu.I'm using Wiiflow WFL 5.5.4. My SD card is formatted to Fat32 and everything else works.

Priiloader is the simplest solution to skipping the Wii system menu. It has settings so that exiting software takes you to a specified app, and can autoboot a specified app when the Wii initially starts up.

I don't think you even read any posts. I never said I needed to boot into Wiiflow or the HBC. Plus, I already have Priiloader set up to boot into the HBC.

highly recommend ==> have you used "wii backup manager" to manage your games and place them on your SD card?

do not copy, paste your game directly onto the SD card, it may not work.

I have to ask, what tutorial did you use? Because I'm having the same problem, and if it's caused by whatever was causing yours, then at least I could load some games with it, which would at least be progress...

This is a long shot, but are your Wiiflow configurations stored on an usb, or have you installed it solely on your SD card? Because changing the paths my WiiFlow was using to point to the actual folders fixed my problem.

Even if that's not the case, it might be worth a try to look at the path settings from the WiiFlow settings menu, to see if everything is configured properly.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • 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

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
