The Latest And Easiest Wii Softmod Yet - letterbomb included (Jan 2012)

[wheelo]

have you tried to format them to FAT32?? or then try FAT

Thanks for the quick reply. I tried with FAT32, FAT16, and the default FAT. I also tried to do a full format instead of quick format. Still not working.
I just read all 6 pages, look like no one has problem with the SD.

 

[wheelo]

No, you are right mate, I don't remember anyone having any trouble with the SD cards. you do know that there are several different versions of Bannerbomb, have you tried another of them? Also, do you have another smaller SD card, possibly in a phone? (a 128, 256MB, perhaps)

I would suggest that any time that I have ever had any trouble with the stage one, it has been a bannerbomb problem, so that is where I would start.

Maybe I am missing a step here. Do I have to install the homebrew channel first for the boot.elf to run? I will try a smaller SD.

 

[wheelo]

No mate, the boot.elf is the way to instal the homebrew channel. I just downloaded the first part and the other versions of bannerbomb aren't there, PM me your email address, and I will send them to you.
what you will do is leave the boot.elf and one of these folders called private, then try until you get the right Banerbomb version.

try renaming the boot.elf to .dol

Wheelo, thank you for the missing files.

Now the channel show up but with the "?". When I click on "start" the channel, nothing happen.
I tried all the versions with boot.elf and boot.dol name. All of them showed up in the channel with the "?".

[brenda789]

Is it true that if you softmod like what i'll be doing in this guide, I cannot play using the disc?

 

[xtripx]

Agreed! Very well written guide, thanks!

Is it true that if you softmod like what i'll be doing in this guide, I cannot play using the disc?

No, you can use discs, but you would need a different channel - like neo gamma or gxloader.
