I’ve never had a problem with it personally with anyone’s Wii where I hadto install it, but you may want to read the page and the replies at the bottom.Īs for what we acheived, you pretty much have it right.

Since it’s not possible to see hidden files in OSX’ Finder, I had to remove them in terminal: The solution was to remove the hidden ‘dot-slash’ files from the wad folder on the SD-card.

I got a bit suspicious, and moved the SD-card back to my Mac, to check the files. (May also apply to other unix-based operating systems, but I’m not sure.)Īt A.6 I got an ERROR (ret=-1) when I tried to install the wad-files.Īdditionally, all the wad files were listed with a size of 0.0MB.
