Yeah, I need to get a SD Card reader too.

I wish I could see the expression on people's faces when you hack basic brawl and play with them xD

And,

If you hack Basic Brawl and stay in the waiting room for a few minutes to wait for people to join, would that screw up the Ocarina codes?

I got my SD card reader! Time to start.

Thanks for the advice earlier Falco400.

EDIT: I really need help. I am so confused on how to install the homebrew channel. I went to the site and downloaded them but I really don't know what to do next. It's all confusing with files and stuff. I'm bad at this. Somone explain this pleeeease.

The main problem is that I can't get to the main SD card hub or whatever that I see in all the videos. I'm confused and pissed off. Do I need to format my SD card to Fat16? Will that delete my Brawl snapshots I stored on my SD card?

I'm just so awful at this. The main problem seems to be the fact that I can't get to that SD card ROOT thing. This is so annoying. I can't do anything else until I can get to there.

Somone reply! I really need help.

You need to wipe your SD Card clean, I think.

And danielgordon1sm64, if you play as a giant SSE Colored Lucario in basic brawl, only you will see it, and everyone else won't?

Wow, I need to start playing basic brawl again.

Or if a hacker wants to play with me on some hacked stages, I'm all for it :D

Well at least somone responded....it didn't adress my main concern though. I guess I'll have to put all those Snapshots back on Brawl for now....

Could you still help me?

I can't get to the main hub thing for the SD card I see in the guide videos. I can't get to the ROOT either, whatever that is.
The root is just you opening the SD Card where you see the folder private. Put the HBC files (boot.elf and etc.) in the root (your SD Card, just put them in there, NOT in private) and go into private>wii>title>RZDE and take your Zelda save out and put it onto your desktop. Then put the Twilight Hack Save where your TP save was (make sure you've erased the TP save file before putting the Twilight Hack save file in). Then put your SD Card into your Wii and load up TP. Choose the first save file, walk backwards a bit until you get a black screen and follow the instructions it says to do (press what it tells you to press). Make SURE you don't have any GCN Memory Cards in your Wii.

Oh and you shouldn't have to format your SD Card, as long as it is read and you can write to it (put files in it) you're good.

You're the best man! I had no idea what any of that stuff was.

I have a problem though. When I try to move things to that folder inside "Private" I can't because private doesn't show up when looking where to move it to. How do I make it show up or is there another way of moving it?

Wait, what? You're saying you can access the private folder but, you don't see the other folders inside it?

Wait nevermind. I misread what you said completely and I thought I was supposed to save things like Twilight Hack and .ELF in the private folder (which I couldn't do because when I click save the list of folders I could save it, it doesn't show up)

I can see those fine. So I save Twilight Hack and .ELF to my SD card right? How exactly do I do that? I'm really awful with this stuff, first time using an SD card to be honest.

Okay, just click on the boot.elf and move it (hover it over the SD Card) and let go. Go into your private>wii>title>RZDE and take your TP save out (it should be called "title.bin"). Then, keeping that folder open, trash it and put the Twilight Hack save file into that folder. Once you've done that, let me know and we'll go onto the next step.

God I feel stupid. I put .ELF into the folder named SD card...but that's only a name. I just made it while moving my pictures into a folder. That was dumb...

So where exactly do I find this SD card part I'm supposed to drag it over to?

where you dragged the pictures out of
basicly open it through my computer and then stick it in there
I dragged the pictures out of the private folder, so I DO stick .ELF and Twilight Hack in the private folder? This is getting confusing.

Wait! I think I got it! It's in my computer and it's called removable disk. That's it, right?

No, you don't. Just put the boot.elf next to the private folder. The Twilight Hack goes into where I have told you twice already.

private in wii in title in RZDE. Move your current save file (title.bin) to your desktop.

You know what, I'm just going to give you the tutorial.

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1w-ycJ3Pkc

Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nc2VKEbMDs

DO NOT FORMAT YOUR SD CARD LIKE IT TELLS YOU TO, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO. IGNORE THAT STEP IN THE TUTORIAL.

Sorry for confusing you guys but I can't stress how awful I am at this.

Lol, I fail at this.

I just realized winRAR is my SD card viewer thing...it is right?!?!? So I delete the Data bin file, right?

Edit: So I clicked on Twilight hack in winRAR but it says it's name then "Unexpected end of archive". What now? Do I uninstall it and reinstall it?

-.-...

Okay, move the title.bin (your Zelda save) to your desktop, THEN trash it, DO NOT do anything with the Twilight Hack save file (as in double click it) where your TP save originally was, put the Twilight Hack there. You do not have to open it.

Edit: Ah well, probably should've been smarter and thought about it XD. Well, as long as you watch the tutorial from here on (after you've put the TP hack in the RZDE folder) it's pretty easy.

You didn't need to open the Twilight Hack, just exit out of winRAR. And yes, you copy the Twilight Hack save file to where your TP save was which is under title>RZDE (so, in other words, open the folder called title and then open the folder called RZDE and put the .bin there).

Alright, I was just being curious. It's fine, right? Opening it didn't cause any problems?

I put it in the RZDE folder! I feel like I actually did something right for once with this! What's next? I renamed it Data.bin too. I'm supposed to do that, right?

Okay...so I opened up the Homebrew channel file now and I'm supposed to copy the .ELF, Read me and Wiiload files into the direct root, right? I just want to make sure, where exactly is that?

And going over all of them then right clicking doesn't bring up a copy option. Is is just another a different name because of the program?
