Use the wbfsmanager to load existing ISOs onto your USB disk Key.

OK so i decided to write my own Softmod guide since i could not find one that explained everything to get it all working from loading the twilight princess hack to loading up your games and playing them on the Wii.

I have used some information from existing (incomplete) guides since i am a huge fan of not re-inventing the wheel.

Though I am more than happy to give credit where credit is due, so see the bottom of the page for the original guides.

Checking your firmware revision and Twilight Princess game version.

To check the firmware loaded on your Wii, go into Wii Options and clicking on the Wii Settings.

You will need to know this to determine which version of the Twilight Princess hack is needed for your Wii.

Pick the Twilight Princess hack version that corresponds to your firmware version.

Wii Complete Softmod Guide Code On The

Check the version of your Twilight Princess game by checking the code on the disc as per the below picture.

Wii Complete Softmod Guide Zip Should Show

Load on the twilight princess archive with the home brew channel in the root of the SD card (the all in one zip should show you the tree structure - apps go in the apps directory).

You will need to load the correct game save for your version of the game this can be determined by checking the text string which is on the inner circle of the data surface with the ones below.

Dont worry if you load a saved game and it doesnt work youre probably loading the wrong one (i did the first time).

I assume you have played the game The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess at least once correct You need to play at least once to create a save or you cant copy the save from the SD card, also note while creating your first save youll need to NOT change the default character names or the save may not work.

Note: Some people are having problems with the Wii not seeing the save file on the SD card.

If you are experiencing this, try setting the archive bit for the data.bin file in Windows this can be be done from the files properties dialog (right click on it in Windows Explorer and check the box).

Turning off or running some other channel or game will have the System Menu delete the savegame again, and youll have to start over.

If you have the USA version of the game, load the TwilightHack0 or TwilightHack2 version of the game as appropriate (remember you wrote it down).

See this dudes you-tube video for a walk through of the above (slightly different with the loader).

CIOS stands for Custom IOS, im not 100 sure exactly what it is but i think of it like a BIOS Operating system which allows you to run custom applications.

I know you need a specific version for some applications to work.

Within your homebrew channel you should have the cIOSX application ready to run.

Launch the cIOSX application, follow the prompts and MAKE SURE you choose network installation (it should go off to the internet and fetch the latest version).

You will know if it worked correctly if the following USB loaders work.
