Wad Manager 1.4



  • Wad Manager 1.7 (in executable form) Wad Manager 1.7 (in WAD form). This is only needed if you want to run it from a channel. Just search for it on Google and use the one that has a '.wad' extension. Your SD card should already have an apps folder folder, so go to 'SD:apps' and create 'wadmanager'. Throw in the Wad Manager.
  • I've got a channel which I installed as wad, so it did work a while ago. The only thing I was able to install was a patched IOS60. All Channel-wad's abort with -1022. I'm on 4.0 too and have HBC and a CIOS installed. One question: When starting Wad Manager 1.4 it asks about the ios to use, I've got the choice of about 40 versions from 4 to 254.

How to fix the Wad Manager ret = -1 error

PREPARATION
1. The first step you need to do is to make sure that you have formatted your SD card to FAT. You can do this by simply going to my computer, right clicking what drive letter it is and hit format.
2. Then make a folder in the root of your sd card called 'apps', NOT app, NOT Apps, Just plain old 'apps'.
3. Then go back to the root of your sd card and make a folder called 'wad', NOT wads, NOT Wad. Just plain old 'wad'.
4. Download these three apps:
Anytitle deleter http://wiibrew.org/w/images/8/8c/AnyTit ... er_HBC.zip
Wad Manager 1.5 http://teknoconsolas.tv/wanin/WAD-Manager_v1.5.zip
cIOSrev14 installer http://teknoconsolas.tv/wanin/cIOS38_re ... taller.zip
NOTE* Make sure that there is a boot.dol in each folder. If it is called something like wadmanager.dol, rename it to boot.dol
5. In the apps folder put wad manager v1.5 The 'path' to wad manager should look something like F:>apps>wadmanager>boot.dol
Now put the anytitle deleter app in the apps folder. The 'path' to anytitle deleter should look something like F:apps>anytitledeleter>boot.dol
Next put the cIOSrev 14 installer app in the apps folder. The 'path' to anytitle deleter should look something like F:apps>CiosInstaller>boot.dol
6. Put all the wad files you want to install in the 'wad' folder
FIXING
1.Fire up the homebrew channel and there should be three apps, select anytitle deleter.
2. After anytitle deleter has loaded select system titles (it should be the first option.) Somewhere there should be something that looks like IOS249. Scroll over to it and select it then hit 'A' to uninstall it.
3.After that is done DO NOT reset your wii, rather just hit the home button
3.Install all the wads you want with wad manager. It is going to ask you what IOS you want to use, select 38.
4.To play backup games you are going to need to reinstall IOS249. Go back to the homebrew channel and select the Cios Installer. At the beginning it is going to ask you what IOS you want to use, select 38, then select Network Installation. Everytime you want to install wads, you may have to repeat this
Hope this helps!

D) In the Priiloader menu select Homebrew Channel (if you didn't install Priiloader then just open HBC as normal), run Wad Manager 1.4, use default settings (IOS249 & SD card) and install these wads from the 'wad' folder: IOS38-64-v3610 IOS50-64-v4889 IOS53-64-v5149 IOS55-64-v5149 NeoGamma r8b7 Then restart your Wii.


Before we start into the process, you will need an SD card, at most 2gb capacity. This SD card will need to be formatted into FAT32 format.

Note: If you are on Wii System Firware 3.1, 3.3 or 3.4 You need to be connected to the Internet, unless you know the proper steps to upgrade using the Wii System WAD and Firware Updater 4.1 which I may include later.
