    Wii 4.1 wii to 4.3

    i have a wii on 4.1 and plays back ups from the disc.

    i'm finding i can't play some of the latest games so it looks like i need update and re softmod.

    any guide on getting it from 4.1 to 4.3 or latest firmware and still play back ups.

    Wiihacks has a guide for different firmwares

    You should be able to do an update to 4.3 and then simply run the letterbomb ssoftmod on 4.3, but im sure an expert will confirm

    It may be that you simply need to upgrade ios58 and hbc. Im on 4.2 and it plays everything i throw at it.

    Some games run on different ios, for example you may need to use 249 in stead of 222 to boot some games.

    Thanks to Zippeyrude

    1. update the wii to 4.3 via wifi

    2. e-mail simplisticmod@gmail.com, wait for the reply and follow the mediafire link

    3. download mod.zip and extract the contents to a clean SD card

    4. Go here http://please.hackmii.com/ input your wii mac address and click red or blue wire

    5. extract the letterbomb zip to the same SD card, overwrite any files it asks

    6. download this http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IPFLBG5I and copy it to wad/mod folder on the SD card

    7. Put the SD card in the wii and go to messages, there should be a new message on the day before

    8. Click the red envelope with the bomb, this will start the hackmii installer

    9. Install homebrew channel, bootmii as ios and bootmii as boot2 (sometimes not available, no worries if not)

    10. Start homebrew channel and click the first app 1. Wii Mod Batch, this will install all the WADs plus neogamma

    11. Install Priiloader

    12. Reboot Wii while holding eject to configure priiloader, enable all the hacks you require then boot into system menu

    I enable the following:

    Region Free EVERYTHING
    Block Disc Updates
    Remove Diagnostic Disc Check
    No-Delete HAXX,JODI,DVDX,DISC,DISK,RZDx
    Remove NoCopy Save File Protection
    Remove diag disc check
    Skip disc update check
    Auto-Press A at Health Screen
    Move Disc Channel
    Block Online Updates

    13. Remove SD card

    Done!

    Optional extra: Move the disc channel to the last screen out the way and replace it with neogamma to avoid confusion (neogamma plays real games too)

    This method will leave you on latest everything and plays everything

    Does this work on an already soft modded Wii, or do I have to restore to default before I follow those instructions from Rael?

    ok looks like mw3 needs ios250

    download neogamma ios switcher: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=AVHP485O

    and install with wad manager: http://dl.qj.net/down/wad-manager-v17.html

    then change to ios250
