NOTICE: I just updated the instructable, if there are any errors, tell me. I will be editing my instructables for the next week or so. The first version of this instructable was extremely outdated and the DVDs were really annoying. In this version, you will be loading ISOs from you SD Card, USB Stick, or USB HDD. - I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR WII OR WHAT YOU DECIDE TO DO WITH IT. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES TO YOUR CONSOLE OR ACCESSORIES Ace - If your gonna add to the instructable please use proper capitalization, grammar, line spacing, etc. Each step has an outline of what needs to be written there.

The outline can be erased once you finish writing that step What you Need: Separate SD Card -or- USB Stick -or- USB HDD Homebrew Enabled Wii (go to enable it for homebrew) Computer with SD Card Reader. ** Please note that you will probably not need a 4.7 gigabyte storage device to hold one game. This may come as a shock to those of you who have messed around with ISOs for awhile, but a game like Wii Play is only 0.09 gigabytes. No I didn't mess up the decimal. The extra stuff that makes the ISO 4.7 gigabytes is sheared off and you get a cISO, or a compressed ISO.

Wii Sports is only 0.3 gigabytes. Other games with more textures and story play are bigger, like Metroid Prime 3, which is 4.1 gigs.

Supersmash Brothers Brawl is 6.4 gigabytes because the disc is dual layered. If you use a WBFS manager to copy over your ISOs you will see an 'estimated size'. I saw this size and almost fainted lol. My prediction of 25 games for 80 gigabytes of space shot up to 50+. I'm telling you this so you dont go overboard shopping for a 32 gigabyte flashdrive.

If you have one of the older ipods with alot of free space, say about 10 gigabytes (you can do this with less, but i like 10 gigs), you could partition it off and store the cISO wii games on the Ipod itself! I will discuss this further in step 5.

** Step 2: Preparing the SD Card. Download ---1a. Unzip CoverFloader-v1.2.zip ---1b. Copy the CoverFloader folder into the SD://apps/ folder 2. Download ---2a. Unzip It ---2b. Copy the Cios Rev 14 folder into the SD://apps/ folder 3.

Download ---3a. Unzip It ---3b. Rename WAD-Manager_v1.4.dol to boot.dol ---3c. Make a folder in the apps folder on your SD card called WADManager ---3d. Copy boot.dol to this WADManager folder 4. If you Have no internet Connection on your wii, download ---4a. Copy IOS38-64-v3610.wad to the root of your SD card Step 3: Installing CIOS36 Rev 10.

Open up your homebrew channel and launch the cIOS36 rev 14 installer. You press A to accept the agreement and then use left and right to choose your installation method. I would reccomend Network, but there are the inevitable few who do not have their wii hooked up to wireless internet.

You will need to get the IOS38-64-v3610 wad from the download link in step 2 and it should already be in the root of the sd card. Select wad installation if you have no internet access. Once the program is finished, restart the wii. This is optional if you are using the CoverFloader1.2-Forwarder.wad file, but it is still recommended. If you are using the CoverFloader1.2.wad this is absolutely necessary. Open up the Homebrew Channels and select the WADManager/boot.dol application.

Accept the Agreement 3. Select 'SD Card' as Storage Device 4. Hit plus (+) on the wiimote next to the proper CoverFloader WAD File 5. Select Install ---5a. It will install and send you back to the same screen 6.

Hit Home (House Picture) on your wiimote to restart the wii Step 5: Preparing ISO Storage Device. Guide to format things to WBFS: Option 1: on Wii Use this option if you do not have any other data you wish to keep on the drive, as it will all be erased.

Put the usb drive in one of the 2 usb slots in the back of the wii and launch cover floader from either the forwarder channel or the homebrew channel. It will say no WBFS drive found, press 2, I think, to format. You want to format. You can now move on to the next step to figure out how to add games to the wbfs drive. Option 2: on computer Use this option if you want to partition, or divide, the hard drive into 2 or more sections. I will be using a flashdrive as in example. **ONLY FOR WINDOWS VISTA AND WINDOWS 7** 1.

Download (and Install) 2. Plug your flash drive into your computer. Click the start circle in the lower right corner of your screen.

Right click on computer and press manage. Click 'Continue'. Over on the left click Disk Managment. You will see a number of disks. Look for one with an amount of space that matches your flashdrive.

Right click to the right of it where the blue bar is and press shrink volume. Enter the amount of space to shrink in MB. 1024 would be one gigabyte, 2048 being 2 and so on. Click 'Shrink'. You should get either unallocated or raw space.

Right click it and press new simple volume. Give it a drive letter but DO NOT format it. It should now be raw data.

Launch the program you downloaded above. Change the Drive to whatever letter you picked earlier. Press format. Now after it is done you have your WBFS drive. Step 6: Adding ISOs.

Guide on how to add ISOs Option 1: on Wii 1. Plug your drive into the usb slot on the wii and start CoverFloader. With the game you want inserted, press the little plus symbol in the lower right corner. Wait for it to register the disc. If you have enough space press ok/install/load whatever is there.

Depending on the size of your game this may or may not take a while. When it is done coverfloader should say 'Game Succesfully iInstalled'. It will be a blank box.

Option 2: on Computer 1. Obtain ISO on Computer 2.

Plug ISO Device into computer 3. Open WBFS Manager (if you do not have it, Download it ) 4. Select the Drive Letter of your WBFS Device and click 'Load' 5. Click 'Browse' and select your ISO file.

You may do this as many times as needed for multiple ISOs. Click 'Add to Drive' All of my (A.C.E.' S) extras require a wireless internet connection, except extra 2 but it's no fun without internet. Extra 1: cover art Press the little gear down at the bottom left to get the settings.

Press download covers. If you have an internet connection on the wii you will get covers. Extra 2: 3D boxes There is also a 3d cover option. This simulates a real box instead of a 2d sheet.

Open the settings and toggle 3d covers to the On position. You may need to go into the graphics tab to do this.

You will need to repeat the cover downloading process, but instead it will say download 3D covers. Extra 3: Ocarina Cheat Codes Ocarina codes are the equivilant of gameshark for the nintendo 64. You can usually find ocarina codes for games even if there arent normal cheats. Open the settings and toggle cheats on. Click on a game like you would when you would launch it.

Click the gear at the top of the window. Toggle cheats to On and yet download the cheat file. Press manage for the cheats.

Select them then press done. Press yes/ok. Load the game like normal and viola! Step 7: Playing Games. I am having similar issues as many of the other posters here. I went through and redid all the previous instructions 3 times just to be sure I had not made an error. I'm running 4.2 of course, so this may be the issue. Also, I'm using an 8gb sd hc card which I've used in the past to run homebrew with zero issues.

When I try to run the cIOS36 rev 10 installer, my remote freezes up and I get a black screen. I've waited a decent amount of time while periodically trying to turn my remote on with no success. If anyone has any ideas or solutions, I'd greatly appreciate it. Okay, so a step by step of what I'm doing once I've run the cIOS36 rev 14. I'm taken to a navigation page saying the following: [+] Select IOS version to use during installation: (My Wii freezes if I choose any option other than or ) I get the disclaimer, to which I agree. I select the WAD installation option as I seem to get further with that than I do with the Internet Option. Everything goes fine except: [+] Installing Custom IOS, please wait.

>>Install Error! (ret = -2011) Then below that it says: [+] Finishing Installation, please wait. Press any button to restart. Then I press a button on the Wii remote and I'm sent back to the Wii Menu with nothing changed. I've never done this before so I don't have a clue whats going wrong!

Any help would be greatly appriciated Thank you:-).
