Now for the DLC

Ok this is where i went wrong and i think others have done the same. If you have the NTSC version on GH you can only install the NTSC DLC file and same if you have the PAL version you can only install the PAL DLC files. From what i have seen there is no way to change the region of the WAD files that the DLC uses so make sure you have downloaded the correct ones, If you dont user the correct ones you wont see them in the archive but they will install ok.

Here is a link to Dogeggs post where he has uploaded some of his
[REMOVED DEAD LINK]

Ok you have 2 options both work for NTSC but only 1 option for the PAL at this momment in time

Option 1: (NTSC ONLY)
1. Download there WAD file [REMOVED LINKS TO PIRATED MATERIAL]
2. Change your Shop to NTSC if you are on a PAL System but have the NTSC copy.
3. Load up Guitar Hero WT/5 and access the Shop so it download the shop and its track listings
4. Turn the wii off
5. Copy the Wad file to your wad folder on the SD card
6. run Wad Manager on your Wii and Naviagate to the wad folder on your SD Card and install the WAD file
7. Once installed reset the cosole by pressing the Home Button on the Wiimote
8. Load up Guitar Hero WT/5 and access the Shop again and you should see that all the songs have a nice green tick against them to say you have already bought the song. Nice and easy
9. To download to SD card you need to load the Game up from the Disc Channel, so far that is the only way yo do this.

Option 2: (NTSC/PAL)
1. Download DLC songs you need 'Make sure you are using the correct region DLC to the game'
For example if you are using NTSC you download file would look like this
Guitar.Hero.5-Yeah.Yeah.Yeahs.Dull.Life.USA.DLC.Wii-OneUp
And for the PAL verion it would be
Guitar.Hero.5-Yeah.Yeah.Yeahs.Dull.Life.PAL.DLC.Wii-OneUp
2. extract the 2 files for each song which is the SONG WAD and the TITLE WAD and place them into you WAD folder on the SD card. Easiest way i found to do this is create a folder in the WAD for each song as you can only install 1 at a time and not multiple.
3. Insert the SD card into the WII and load up the OneUP DLC channel.
4. once this is loaded it looks just like the WAD manager and works the same except for the install.
5. Keep the IOS the default one and press A then press A again for load from SD card
6. select the song name WAD file and install it as a SONG WAD
7. once the song is installed do the same for the Title wad and install it as a TITLE WAD
8. once complete start up your GH game
9. Go the the archive and see if the song is there and it should be on your Wii Memory.

If you cannot see the file follow these next steps
1. Boot the Wii up and Load the WAD MANAGER
2. Select the Song Wad file and Uninstall it
3. Select the Title Wad file and Uninstall it
4. you may get an error on removal but nothing to worry about
5. Reboot the Wii into Data Managment and Delete the GH song File save
6. Exit and load up the OneUP DLC channel.
7. once this is loaded it looks just like the WAD manager and works the same except for the install.
8. Keep the IOS the default one and press A then press A again for load from SD card
9. select the song name WAD file and install it as a SONG WAD
10. once the song is installed do the same for the Title wad and install it as a TITLE WAD
11. once complete start up your GH game
12. Go the the archive and see if the song is there and it should be on your Wii Memory.

and that should be it.

Any Questions or Faults or Tweeks with this guide let me know and i'll update it
Hope is solves alot of people problems as some text i have read on the net is not always that clear.

Nice idea. Can use some screenshots etc. I do not think cIOS56 must be installed however IOS56-64-v5146 must be. Can you clarify why cIOS56 is needed?

i will hopefully get a chance to update this post tonight with some links to files as i have done more tests on the Wad files and DLC store.

bare with me hectic time of the year for me atm.

Cheers

I did the tutorial with GHWT and it worked. I just got GH5 and when i go into the music store, i see a green check mark mext to all the songs that where in the GHWT and wii point cost next to the songs that can be accessed only when you have GH5.

I tried to remove all the downloaded songs from my Wii, then went back in and same problem.

Removed the Hairy Ballsagna wad with WAD manager 1.5 (title was removed...other 2 things that its suppose to remove i get an error that i forget). Then reinstalled it, booted up GH5...same deal

I transfered some songs to my SD card but its wasnt inside my wii while i was trying to get the hack to work so it shouldnt affect the process?

Any help would be appreciated :)

Ok...i figured it out...the wad i had was only for GHWT...got the one for GH5 and GH Smash hits and loaded them with wad manager and boom!...shop is open to me :)

For those looking for the wads:
{PIRATED LINKS DELETED)

you beat me to it mate i was gonna add all these into the turorial but havent had a chance just yet with the run up to xmas and i have my son with me this week as well. but since im off work im going to do all this tomorrow as learning things each day for improvements to this tutorial. glad the GHWT worked for you.

Little update with WAD links

so i saw a post over at wiiiso awhile ago and there instructions said u had do move or rename the private folder while you do the hack. thats not nessary with this hack?

So, I kept getting error 1022 when trying to install the GHWT DSC wad. However, after going back into the game, I now have access to all the songs. So whatever works I guess. THANK YOU FOR THIS GUIDE!
