Wii Soft-Mod Information

Instead of "Some Wiis can't read DVD-R" you should put newer Wii's can't play DVD-R otherwise people with older Wii's would be confused if they can or cannot.
Great guide thoughAlso, lol at FileTrip and GBAtemp links :P

Ja and for ones like myself that has a Wii below LU7306 and still cannot play dvd-r for whatever reason and a solution if any.

Semi-fixed.Added why you can't newer Wiis can't play/read DVD-R discs.

If I were to update my wii after I softmodded it, will it get bricked?I have system menu 4.2U
and all I have is the HBC with a few Emulators

Replying to #24

It may. :\
It's a 50/50 chance though.Do you have BootMii as boot2?
If not, then I wouldn't update your Wii.What is the update for?

Replying to #25

Oh thanks for the info (but it wasn't meant for me though)When I have my Wii hardmodded, and I update, can I still use it or is it bricked?I have BootMii as Boot2, on my SD card.Just curious.

Replying to #26

Boot2 on your SD card? ???Are you using the nand emulation program called sneek?The BootMii installs itself as Boot2, but if you can't it installs as an IOS.If it has a chip, then it may brick, but I don't know if they will detect it or not.

I have BootMii on a SD card...when I leave it in, it gives a screen with 4 icons.Remember the PM I send you about deleting BootMii from my SD card?And IDK what sneek is...

Replying to #28

Ok. So you have BootMii.
Don't delete it. :P I need to reinstall my BootMii acutally... ::)

Replying to #29

Need my copy?

Replying to #30

It won't make a difference.I can't make BootMii as boot2. Only as an IOS and nothing can change that until they release a new version of BootMii that is able to install itself as boot2. :(

Replying to #31

Ah...well, as long as my Wii works I'm happy xD
Blow me in technical details and I will start asking things...so don't do that.

is there anyway to install bootmii without it starting up before the Wii menu

Replying to #33

Yeah.Just change the settings in BootMii.I don't have that problem as mine is installed as an IOS.

Replying to #34

What icon?It was really handy if they put a DESCRIPTION by the icons =.="
ARGH... By now my Wii is backing something up...

Replying to #35

Wahaha! You went to settings and did the green arrow no? :PThat's the NAND dumper option. I need to make a section on how to use BootMii.

IF anyone cares, I can now verify that you can play back up DVD-Rs if you burn then off at x4 using ImgBurn onto a Sony brand DVD-R took a days worth of updating and reinstalling shit (mostly thanks to Pimp my Wii and Darkcorp and of course ace :P), but in the end it was worth it. Hopefully in the next few days I will be able to test if Game Cube works as it was an ongoing problem for me since I first soft modded it.[EDIT]
Game cube works as well, same procedure as burning Wii. (About damn time too, I was starting to think I messed something up during the soft modding)So now I can play Wii games from DVD-R and HDD and Game Cube games off DVD-R

Yes I did, and my SD was almost full.BUT HOW...

What did you do!? if you backed up your NAND on the SD card you can copy it over to your PC in a safe place. then delete it off your SD card....but of that's not what your going on about then disregard this and just pretend I am laughing for no reason at all.

Replying to #39

Yes I did back it up to my SD...it was over 500 MB.And I did delete it. No copy's.
Don't want my Wii's memory stuffed on my PC. It's his memory, not her.
