This currupted my SNES9x channel. (The latest one, the one with a logo and everything...shame...that was my most used channel.)

1.- Format your SDCard on a FAT32 format. It must be a 2Gb or less usb and no SHDC
2.- Install the Twilight Hack used to run simple homebrews (I won't explain this. Google it)
3.- Place the boot.elf file on the root of your recent formated SDCard and place it on your Wii
4.- Your Zelda: Twilight Princess and run the hack as you were running any other homebrew.
5.- This will load the the boot.elf of the homebrew channel installer, reset your wii and woala, your new homebrew channel will be installed and ready to run more homebrew

I would upload a video showing how it's done, but I don't have any good cam to do so, only my $#@!ty 1mb cel cam which only takes like 15 secs of video

Only use FAT32 if you're using 0.1alpha3b version of the Twilight Princess hack and only use that if 0.1alpha3a doesn't work.

I tried two versions of the Super Nintendo emulator: Snes9x GX front version 5 and version 6.

When I try to load a rom fron the front SD in both versions it gives me a message stating "/roms doesn't exist", and then it crashes.

Anyone having similar problems?

Ive had this channel loaded for two days and it works fantastic, but everytime I try and run GC Linux it freezes during loading. Any suggestion. Also Ive seen some question about NES emulator and Ive tried them all. The best currently is fceu_rev23_test2.rar You can download it from the tehskeen froums. It has rom loading from the front SD with out need of SD gecko also save state to sd and full wiimote and nunchuck compatability. The only problem with it is some times mostly right after wiimote sinc it displayes wierd color bars, but if you press home on the wiimote they disappear.

I'm still having the same problem, even though I tried formatting my card as both FAT and FAT32 as someone suggested. Any more ideas?

are you using the correct version of the twilight hack? you need to make sure you use version "a" for Fat and version "b" for Fat32. If that isnt your problem try using the offical panasonic SD formating tool. There is a link to it from the wiibrew twilight hack page. After that your problem may be do to your specific SD card. Not all cards work. It cant be over 2GB. Ive got three cards that work two I formated with the panasonic formating tool to Fat and the third i had to format to FAT with the Panasonic tool first and then format it Fat32 with windows. I hope you get it working

SNES9X 1.43 WiiMote Edition 0.1.1a won't load, when reach 100% the screen stay in a dark shade and Wii freezes. Still, version 1.43 works perfectly.... but I want my classic controler support!!!!

isn't there a way to change the text that is showing in playing history...?
So the Wii and also Nintendo will think you played e.g. Zelda or that you were using the mii channel or something?

BIG BIG THANKS to the BRILLIANT coders who made this one!!! It was the easiest thing to install and looks and sounds beautiful! What a difference it is to not have to load and reload Gecko carts, Datel discs and retaining the sleek look of the Wii with memory card panels closed, and best of all, I can play Zelda again by erasing the hack and restoring my original save file!

Is there a way to customize the order of the homebrew list in the channel, say if you want Sega first, nintendo 2nd, etc?

My sincerest thanks to you all! I can't wait to see the emulator menus say "Reload HBC" etc!

Neopop and NeoGeo CD Redux- everyone will soon be looking at you the way grandparents glare at their unmarried kids to make more grandchildren...

What a fun place to be! DCEMU rocks!!
