Snes9x GX, FCE Ultra GX, Visual Boy Advance GX - UPDATED!

Hey guys just a quick question. Just soft modded my 4.3 wii an did everything right also have my USB reading my backups

Regarding the emulators how do I install these an do I put the roms on the same Hard drive the wii games are located or get a bigger SD card an put them on that? only after snes an nes

Also do I have to unzip the games or not? Thanks! really want these great games playing through the wii

I have a hopefully simple question here...I am relatively new to this modding stuff, and although I am fluent with following specific instruction (thanx Mauifrog for making life so easy) but as far as the IOS58 installer goes, I think I can run that with no problem, but wiibrew says I need to reinstall Homebrew after running the installer...is there somewhere I can find very specific instructions on exactly how to make this whole thing happen from start to finish? I mean, Mauifrog gave step by step instruction to go from store bought wii to modified wii...but just saying "reinstall Homebrew" insn't the kind of detailed info I am comfortable with...on the other hand, the WiiMC channel needs IOS58 and so do other emulators (which I'd like to add) so I am really interested in learning more...can anyone provide VERY detailed info or point me in the right direction for a good tutorial???

You need to reinstall Homebrew after installing IOS58. So that Homebrew is running on IOS58.

Or u could follow the softmod any Wii guide to update your softmod. Because if u didn't have 58, you may be missing some others.

that was the guide I followed...guess it didn't naturally install it on IOS58...once I follow the IOS58 installer, should I just follow the original steps on that guide you refrenced to reinstall homebrew, or will that reinstall it the way it is now undoing whatever the IOS58 installer does...I'm not too sure how all that works...any advice is helpful...thanx for responding so quickly

If u followed the softmod any Wii guide lately u are up to date. And already had IOS 58. So why u messing with it now?

Why don't the GameCube Controllers work right?
I have 2 brand new controllers and despite all the the buttons being correctly set, they don't work in game.. Work fine in the menus, but in game.. nadda..

Sorry,JAX.

Well thank you, and I also want to apologize for my post. I will be more mindfull of the rules nexttime. Take care all. Thank you again jax for your help and all the Wii Wizards

maybe someone address this earlier, not sure though I looked around: how come whenever I press Home to bring up the menu during the game, I get a blank screen and sometimes I do not get the Options at all?

also the screen is messed up if I plug in component cables, so I have to use the standard lol

Where can I find the Fonts for these apps?? lol

I am trying to install the cover support versions of SNES9X GX, FCEUltra GX and VBAGX, but there is problem: all three emulators have a folder called "src" in the root, and whenever I unzip the contents of one emulator, it overwrites the src folder of the previous emulator that was in the root of my SD card. How do I fix that? Should I move the src folders to each individual emulator folder (e.g. VBAGX's "src" folder moved to "vbagx" folder), instead of leaving them in the root of the SD card?

Ok, I managed to solve the folder problem, but I still have a question: is there a way to change the music that plays on the "coverflow" on these GX emulators, like you can do in Wiiflow? I saw no option to do that and it would certainly be awesome to do so.

I have a legit full english version of megaman & bass with cover art and game genie codes whoever wants it just message me!

Since I updated to the latest version of the FCE Ultra, this little bug formed. It doesn't matter which game I loaded, but no matter what one I load, B button seems to be auto-firing. I am not seeing anywhere that I can turn this off, and not sure if it's me, but it's rather annoying. Games I loaded: Crystalis (not sure on spelling, in there, I cannot read chat boxes as they close immediately), Blaster Master (always firing), and SMB (always running, firing fireballs if you have Flower). I didn't bother trying others. Everything is going through a USB connection and well, it all worked normal before the update anyways.

Is there a hidden setting or feature that I am missing? Also, this is confirmed using regular Wiimote, Classic Controller, and Classic Controller Pro.

There is an option on FCE to choose auto-firing. I don't have access to my Wii right now, but I am pretty sure it's under the button mapping settings.

That's what I thought too, but I was looking everywhere and was not seeing a place for auto-firing anywhere, even in button mapping settings. Hence why I asked here. Maybe I'm blind or missing a section somewhere that it's at...

As far as I can remember, I set the auto-fire function to X and Y on the same place you assign functions to the buttons. So, to the "a" button on the classic controller, you can assign the regular NES "A" button function, or the NES "A" button function with auto-fire enabled. That's all I can remember...
