I'm having a little difficulty with the installation of the cIOS38 and the MIOS patcher. When I select the cIOS38 installer and attempt to run it with the first IOS selection that is given (IOS249), it just remains on the same screen without progressing to the next portion that asks me where to run the installation from (WAD or Network), and my Wiimote shuts off so I'm forced to restart my Wii.

And when I click on the MIOS patcher, the screen goes black, and nothing happens.

I downloaded the files on MuraRengan's OP to put onto my SD card, then put the SD card into my Wii to install the two necessary programs, and that's the point I'm stuck at right now.

Can anyone help me out please? ^.^;

umm, make sure u run it through homebrew? Have internet access? You might possibly need to downgrade. Check the front page. U need to use a gamecube controller to work them also. Most of this info is on the front page, or links to info on it.

Ok I got a little further in gathering all of the correct files, but I'm still running into the same issue of a black screen when I click on either the GC backup launcher, CMIOS installer rev3, or the CMIOS patcher applications on my Homebrew channel, which leaves me with no option but to restart the Wii.

I'm also running into the same issue I had before when I run the cIOS38 rev17 application (I click A when it's set to IOS249 and it freezes before getting to the next step of allowing me to choose between a network installation or an offline wad installation).

Sorry if my questions become tiresome/annoying, I'm just becoming lost on this stuff...but I really want to play a texture/audio hacked copy of Melee. ^.^;

Hmm...I wonder if the structure of my SD card may be the problem. Can anyone give me a proper layout of how my SD card is supposed to look starting at the root, so that I can make sure I have every single necessary file and where they need to be? Thanks so much in advance. :)

i helped a friend doing this, he did the installation offline and hadnt downloaded the correct files before, so when it tried network installation it failed and restarted, and afterwards he just got black screeen just like you. To solve it i told him to uninstall homebrew and reinstall it, then install the correct files and it worked just fine after that.

I've got everything working up until I reach the Backup Launcher screen where I'm given a few different options for video modes. However, it's not accepting any input from my GC controller, even though it accepts the disc fine and I've done everything according to the guide so far. I've tried using different GC controllers, trying to control from different slots, etc. but nothing works. Can anyone shed some light on this?

It is in the Player 1 slot. I've also tried in the 2,3 and 4, it still won't accept input...

EDIT: I turned my Wii upside-down, and for some reason it accepted input this time. However, I pressed B and the screen went green for a split second, and then my console reset <__<

I figured out I need to unplug and replug the SD card into the Wii after I launch it for input to work, but now my problem is with the screen turning green and resetting the Wii the moment I press B. It also stops accepting input if I press anything other than B for the first input. It could possibly be freezing. Can anyone help me?

I have a bunch of .tga files I want to put onto my Melee disc. Is there a tutorial on how to do so?
read the first post..

and the game won't read random files that are on there, only ones that parts of the code tell it to, so you have to replace a file instead of just inserting it, or it won't work. [if that's what you meant]

1) they're executed in your command line.
2) get dspadpcm
3) command line
4) you prob don't have all the required files

The question should've been like this: where do .tga files go to? Apparently .dat's but I'm uninformed as to which ones. ;_;

Gonna roam Youtube.

p.s sorry for being dumb

something is not well with your disc, it sounds.

i've been using the cheapest burnable dvds i can find
dvd-rs or dvd+rs both work
