View Full Version : D2X v7 cios pack and install instructions
happy_highlander
27th October, 2011, 07:38 PM
First thing I did was to make a fresh nand backup just incase I don't like the new setup.....
Right lads this has been made very simple with the introduction of the v7 wad pack. Download http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/wii/16/d2x-v7-final-1913/ and put in the wad folder on your sd card and install with wad manager. Do not delete any current cios just install the d2x pack straight over the top. That's it your wii is now running the latest cios.....If you are already using usbloader gx and using a forwarder channel to load then go to the update option and this will update to version 2.3. If your wii is not online you don't have usbloader gx or use a full channel gx then you need to download Digital Kaos - Downloads - USBLoader GX 2.3 all in one package ios249 (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/wii/16/usbloader-gx-2-3-all-one-package-ios249-1847/) in this pack there is a forwarder channel your .dol file and the full channel. Either install the full channel wad with wad manager or install the forwarder wad and install the .dol on the sd card or fat32 partition of usb. By using gx 2.3 combined with the v7 d2x cios pack your wii can now use your hdd as a FULL emulated nand (channels and game saves) I haven't tried this or PARTIAL emulated nand (game saves) works perfectly. This setup will also read multiple partitions and formats (needs to be set in main gx settings under hard drive options) it is as simple as selecting read multiple partitions and all partitions (not just game partitions). I have 3 partitions on my hdd which was perfect for testing this...First partition is formatted to wbfs and all games work...Second partition is NTFS and all games work....Third partition is Fat32 and you guessed it all games work. If you install everything you used to load form your sd card onto a fat32 partition on the hdd the emulated nand will save to the hdd. If sd card is left in the default path for the emu nand is sd. So that's it I will not be needing my latest nand backup or my sd card. Well I might need my sd if I can't get mplayer to look at the hdd instead of trying to still load from an empty sd card slot....It might be to do with my fat32 being third on the drive. Whole drive will be formatted to fat when i get the time so that will sort that out, but it's no fuss to install the sd card when i want to stream a film from the pc anyway.
If I've missed anything or you don't understand me just shout up and I'll try to explain myself a bit better

Hi Happy,
Can I pick and choose, do you know if it will
affect the soft mod?
as was thinking of keeping maybe 249-250(just as it works with everything so far) but add all the others?

You can pick and choose but the 249 and 250 are upgrades from what you have and will be required if you want to use gx for nand emu or blocking ios reload as the version of gx supplied is for installation on 249. I can guarantee that every game you can load with what you have will load with d2x on the gx loader or wiiflow (apparently) I haven't tried wiiflow as I have tried about 300 gb worth of games on gx and they all work

27th October, 2011, 09:31 PM
Just to add to this thread even though it is already on another these are specific cios upgrades and can still be used along side hermes 222, 223 and 224 used for uloader and cfg. You will still have 202 installed for using m player. The main reason for the new cios to be based around 249 is because that is the ios that is used for original game discs

Further testing is showing that nand emulation for game saves is not working for all games but it may just be my setup...I haven't had a lot of time to play around with this and will keep testing and keep you updated

happy will you pm me on how to do the game saves on hard drive thingy please much appreciated.
I will put it out on the open forum when I have it working properly unless you want to help test it that is....At this stage you need to make sure that your emu nand is being saved to a fat32 partition and take out your sd card or you will need to change the path manually as I have had to do due it installing to ntfs partition and not working properly. Once you have a fat32 partition on your hdd do not try to extract all game saves at the same time you will get errors and only some will work. It is better to do it individually. when you click on the game to load it click the settings button where you would normally change your ios (game load) in that list go down to emulated nand and set it to partial then click save. Also in that settings list you will see a button to extract game save to emulated nand click that and that should be you done. You will have to repeat this step for everygame save as you go to play the games. A few words of warning the only way to be sure it has worked is to move the game save from your wii memory to sd card, that will remove all traces of the game save from the console but it will not be lost if the extract hasn't worked, the next pointer is that cod black ops and 007 goldeneye must be left to run from the true nand on the wii memory or they do not work properly in the case of black ops you cannot play online from the emu nand. See how you go 1 game at a time if you don't have much space on an sd card for the original game saves you transfer from the wii after extracting a copy to the emu nand transfer them from sd to pc but remember you won't know what game save is what on the sd when viewing in the pc as they are just a set of numbers

Yes mate I have tested it but remember not to try and use the emulated nand function with cod as it doesn't work. Driver sf also works. Remember to set cod to load with 250 not the default 249. You must install the usb loader gx v2.3 for the cios wads to work properly

The d2x pack are all wads extract it into your wad folder and select to install any wads that says it's d2x from 245 to 251 and they will work with cfg if you don't want to use gx

3rd November, 2011, 06:38 PM
Thanks, I understand about the Wads folder but the Wad manager is asking what IOS to install the Wads under the dfault is 249 is that what I use as I install each wad in the D2x pack?

Instructions
Extract to your "wad" folder on the root of the SD
Load the app you chose to install the wads and reload to IOS236 or 36
Install the wads
Bases are:
cIOS245[37]
cIOS246[38]
cIOS247[53]
cIOS248[55]
cIOS249[56]
cIOS250[57]
cIOS251[58]
but you are normally on 236 when you load wad manager then just load them to wherever they are going, If I'm not mistaken they will load to whatever number the cios is i.e 249 or 250 or 245

Thanks again!! I loaded all with the exception of 57 I got an error 1035 and it would not load. I used IOS 36 with my Wad Manager. Not sure if just that IOS is corrupt or I did something wrong. I did load a game I could not load previous "Back to the Future" so I am not sure what else I need to do to load the IOS 57?

do you mean cios 250 on a base of 57 and did you say you have back to the future game working if so can you let us know what configuration works. It is probably because of the version number you already have installed and seems to happen when installing to with ios36. I had no errors on 236 so try reloading to 236 and installing 250 again
seppi46
3rd November, 2011, 10:29 PM
Yes, Cios 250 but I do not have an option on my Wad Manager to load from 236 only 36. I loaded Back to the Future with CFG 70 and did not change the options I loaded it with 249. Not sure how I would load with 236 it doesn't seem to be an option in the IOS load options in Wad Manager 1.7?

I always use Multi Mod Manager 13.4 perfect.

sorry mate can't help you with the settings for wad manager 1.7 as I use multi mod manager (MMM) and at the bottom of the first screen I have the option. change ios to load current ios is (whatever I am on) When i click I can choose but 236 is usually what is loaded do you have 236 patched on your wii. Do a syscheck and look to see if you have ios 236
seppi46
4th November, 2011, 12:13 AM
I just want to thank you for the quick responses to my queries before I go on and ask for more insight...thank you!
I loaded MMM and got the same 1035 error message so then I ran sysCheck 2.14 and ...(I am not suprised) do not show IOS 236 in my configuration. So now I'll search to see how I can add that to my Wii and then try installing IOS 250 (57) with IOS 236. I will keep you posted! I have more than one Wii and one loads Back to the future and one loads but will revert to the system menu when you select to the 1st protion of the game. I will run a sysCheck on that as well. I thought the IOS was the same as the Wii that runs BTF (wierd).
seppi46
4th November, 2011, 01:56 AM
Updated to IOS 236 after updating HBC to 1.08 and was able to load all D2x wads with IOS 236 including IOS 250 57 no problem no errors and Back to future loads as well.
Thanks to all for input/support.

Does it by upgrading to 2.3? I upgraded a couple of weeks ago and all my games still work. When I upgraded my 2.3 there was no alphabetical search ABC on the icons. When I upgraded my friends to 2.3 there was.
So which games have stopped working?

When you upgraded to 2.3 the other week can you remember what version you were on as there has been some issues updating from v1 to v2 and the best way to do it is to remove the gx config file from the gx folder and start up 2.3 again allowing it to create it's own config file and stopping the conflict, it may be this case with yours not necessarily from v1 but a conflict in configuration just the same

Do you or have you ever had darkcorp installed, 222,223,224 are all patched as that is what uloader runs on even though with versions I now have installed gx will now load on them. Those three are mainly for mic games.

It's not necessary if you are good with what you have but this is the next generation of cios designed specifically with gx in mind and seem to be the only ones being updated now. They also allow you to use your hdd for game saves with gx meaning you load all your game saves from hdd instead of the wii true nand..Benefits are as much space as you need for game saves and dlc instead of 512mb on your wii. Full nand emulation is also in the pipeline that should rule out the need for cios to load games at all meaning that all games will run regardless of any ap that has been developed. Almost all the games released from now on will require these cios if any ap has been put on them. And by the way tintin still does not run properly from hdd even with the d2x pack.

It's not necessary if you are good with what you have but this is the next generation of cios designed specifically with gx in mind and seem to be the only ones being updated now. They also allow you to use your hdd for game saves with gx meaning you load all your game saves from hdd instead of the wii true nand..Benefits are as much space as you need for game saves and dlc instead of 512mb on your wii. Full nand emulation is also in the pipeline that should rule out the need for cios to load games at all meaning that all games will run regardless of any ap that has been developed. Almost all the games released from now on will require these cios if any ap has been put on them. And by the way tintin still does not run properly from hdd even with the d2x pack.
Thanks for the quick response,i do a few games for my mates kids and mine so while they are working i wont bother as its more work for me lol
Added Call of Duty 3 recently and that runs ok will know more once i put the Sonic London 2012 on and the latest Lego game.

Cod mw3 runs on the same settings as black ops. Mario 2012 and lego harry potter 5_7 both run on 249 with a base of (56) your 249 will have a base of (57) as I am assuming you used the black ops fix when it was released. With d2x it is 250 that has a (57) base for cod. They may still work with 249 but if they don't you know what to do. It takes about 3 mins to change to d2x and the latest gx.

Without sounding dumb do i only need to update their sd cards with the new wads when i decide to update them,that way can do them all off my own Wii.
Another thought can Gx be updated online as im sure its quite an old version,also has forwarder channel on it.
Trying to as little as possible.You know what kids are like when you take thier toys off them lol
All of the Wiis are 4.3,

I wouldn't update gx online there are known problems if you are going from version 1 to this version 2.3. Better to remove it completely from the sd. You can keep the forwarder channel, you just need to delete the gx folder from your apps folder and replace with the one from the pack. There are a few sets of files in the pack so make sure you put the correct one on the sd. When you read through them you will know what one it is. And as far as the wads go, just put them in your wad folder and install them with your wad manager. If you are still unsure, I can do you a wad pack with a wad manager and just the gx folder with required forwarder. This pack will also contain a full set of instructions. If you want to do it this way you will have to use an empty sd card so as not to confuse things with the wads you have on your existing card.

Well I added cod mw3 and it wouldn't work it just showed the Loading.... screen on GX 2.3 I updated the D2x v7 and changed the IOS to 250 and it worked, now I'm assuming the 250 change that did it but it doesn't hurt to keep the system updated. I will install cod mw3 on my friends tomorrow and see if changeing to 250 or D2x v7 makes a difference.

I know you updated mate but you are missing the list option from your top menu and if you notice in one if the earlier posts he says he is on an old version of gx and the main problems can happen (but not always) when updating from from version 1 to version 2 as the online update does not renew the config file in the gx folder it only updates the .dol

Well you need to do a sysCheck (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/wii/16/syscheck-v2-1-0-beta-11-1918/) (follow the instructions in there) to see which IOS's you have installed if IOS236 is missing then you need to find a source I used cIOS236 v65535.wad.
IOS236[36] (rev 65535, Info: rev 3351): Trucha Bug, ES Identify, NAND Access
I don't have any luck with either of the WAD Managers 1.5 or 1.7 but MMM 13.4 always works for me. You could Google it or extract the MMM folder from with mmm 13.4 (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/wii/16/usbloader-gx-2-3-r1128-d2x-v7-mmm-13-4-1872/) and put it in the apps folder on the SD card then run it from HBC.
My sd card is blank. can I just create a simple folder called WADS and extract the files into that?
So if your SD card is blank format it FAT32 then make a wad folder not a WADS folder in lowercase on the root of the drive, you may as well make an apps folder as well. This is where all the programmes live when you use the HomeBrew Channel (HBC). Put cIOS236 v65535.wad in the wad folder and install it with MMM.
If you have a blank SD card then you don't use any USB Loaders or NeoGamma so why have you softmodded?

The choice is yours. I am currently using v8 r42 and the only major difference is with nand emulation. I haven't uploaded the beta as yet because I'm unsure how stable it is and a lot of the people on here are relative newbies, and very few of them use nand emulation so there is no benefit as yet. I have a few things to try out today tho see if tin tin will load, if I can get that to work I will upload the setup

I cannot get The Last Story to work on my Wii. Is D2X v7 required for it to work?
Keithuk
17th October, 2012, 10:16 AM
Welcome to DK.
When I tried The Last Story it said is needs a 60Hz screen so you don't change the Wii settings you change the game settings to Force PAL60Hz. Does it show any message or just won't run.
There are a few games that show the message needs a 60Hz screen. Boom Street, Super Smash Bros Brawl. Project Zero 2 Wii Edition says it need 60Hz but when you change settings it still shows the same message you have to Force NTSC then it works. That one took a bit of Googling to get that game working.
I'm not sure if it will only work with d2x because I've had d2x v8.0 final pack (http://www.digital-kaos.co.uk/forums/downloads/wii/16/d2x-v8-final-wad-pack-2048/) installed for a while. It won't hurt to install these wads.

I know it's an old thread but I'm looking for some help. I remember installing FIX94 d2x v7a5 WAD Pack on my Pal Wii when it came bundled with the US/NTSC version of Skyward Sword.
Turning my Wii on for the first time in almost 18 months, I now remember it broke all of my home screen game forwarders where it just causes a Stack Dump after 30 seconds in cloader 3.1. Does anyone know how to remove these so I can restore my channel forwarders, preferably without resoftmodding my Wii and starting again from scratch.
Thanks in advance.
