Running Homebrew and Emulators on the Wii Console Tutorial

[Tycoon]

So has anyone actually got this to work? It seems alot of had problems.

Also, how do I convert to .dol?

[Karunga]

Can anyone confirm this working?

Even if, I would need a PAL version.

Same concept, yes it works.

I have SNES9x SD version running fine on my Wii, I've been playing Mario World and a few Street Fighter games off and on since the Wii came out. I also have NES SD compatible running as well. No problems here.

the_eternal_dark you said you have this working i was just wondering if you had to use a gamecube controller with this or dose any of the wii controllers work with this?

Wii PAL (uk)
Got the Gecko + SD card 2gb.
Then bought an AR max for GC.
Wii said 'Unable to read disk'
So then bought a AR GC 'wii compatible' sticker on it.
This time it loads up BUT there is NO ADD NEW GAME option in the menu's

So I do not know why the AR MAX GC disk didnt work but codejunkies said it was incompatible?

What version of AR have ppl been using here?

I thought all GC stuff would work on the Wii.

I think they know about the SD method so they have now taken off the ability to ADD NEW GAME as they are selling there own SD Load method called SD Media Launcher (for homebrew) for £29.99.

I have saved and loaded a save state for a Nes rom but the SNES roms save and load, but won't actually load the state. It seems like it's loading then you go back to the game and resumes from where you left it and not the save state. Anyone else have this issue?
Also I could Load any TG16 or SG .DOLs. Has anyone had these issues?

Here are some problems i am having. i hope someone can help me.

AR hardware resets at almost every use so i have re-enter the codes.
can't figure out how to format SD card to FAT 16.
Wii says cannot use device in slot a, where i inserted my gecko.

any help would be great.

I have gotten my Gecko SD adpter, my SD Card, and my Action Replay all ready to go.

I've downloaded a couple of emulators and got them into .dol format
-i've formatted my Sd card to FAT and have the sdloader.bin file placed on my card and the card is patched from the sdpatch.exe file

Now, how do i get the roms to work on the GC/Wii system? I heard i need to put them in .dol format? How do i get the roms to run correctly? I know placement is not a big deal, i justneed a little help, thats all. I'm not an idiot, i did the rest myself and got the WiiCR working.

I have followed the directions and got everything working fine. I am using the method to "inject" the NES files to make them a DOL file. Problem is that with more than 10 files on a SD card, the loading while in SDLOAD takes about a minute to show the list of games. I tried figuring out how to put a NES emulator on the SD card and loading that from SDLOAD instead of a game but can't get it to work. I found an emulator that is already in the DOL file format but when I launch that in SDLOAD all I get is garbage on the screen. Any help? Thanks.
