Wii Firmware Menu - Disc's can't be read - faded - 01-17-2022
Well, interesting Problem that I just can't seem to resolve.
Basically:
My ISO's don't get booted into the Disk Channel in the Menu. Although the Games work fine when i boot them up from the Dolphin Menu, they can't seem to be loaded into the Wii Menu Disk Channel.
I don't know if im missing an obvious step, I've checked if the rips we're good (which they are), All the games work properly if i load them up, just a few minor Frame drops but nothing out of the Ordinary.
I wanted to play some MKW Riivolution, but i can't run Riivolution, nor the WiimFi Patcher since my Games don't load into the Disc Channel.
In Attachments are some Screenshots of what my problem looks like.

If you want to run games from the Wii Menu, you need to make sure that the region of the Wii Menu is the same as the region of the game.
Anyway, the Wii Menu won't be of any help whatsoever if you want to run Riivolution or the Wiimmfi Patcher. The normal version of Riivolution which you would run on a Wii does not work in Dolphin, but Dolphin has its own replacement version of the Riivolution functionality. You can access it by right-clicking a game in the game list and selecting "Start with Riivolution Patches..."
EDIT: Also, now that I look closer at your screenshots, your games are definitely not good dumps. If you are using the NKit file format (please don't!), then that could possibly also be a reason why the Wii Menu isn't work.

Though thanks for the quick reply, i appreciate it.
One more thing... If i try to open the Riivolution Patcher from Dolphin and put in the XML's it says that the files are not Riivolution files, so i would need a bit of help on that too.
