Offline installs take the longest amount of time. When I first modded my Wii this is the method I originally used.



To answer this question now, merge or replace everything when your pc asks you the "what do you want to do with these files" prompt



1. Down load the files from this link.



2. Extract them to a folder on your desktop (or anywhere convenient to you)

A. Run prepare.bat

B. Choose the number for system menu 3.2,

I am in the USA so I chose 289 (the e is for Europe, u is for United States, j is for Japan)

C. Wait for everything to download.



3. Open the folder

A. Move the contents of SD on to your SD card

(do no just move the folders you have to move the contents)

B. Now move all of the rest of the contents of the folder onto your SD card.



4. Put the SD card in your Wii and open the homebrew channel

A) Run CMDVDX35 and choose Downgrade IOS35. It might say network error just ignore it and choose Exit

B) Run WAD Manager choose IOS35 and install IOS35-64-v1040.wad then restart



5. Run WAD-Manager_v1.4 choose IOS35 and install cios_fix.wad then restart



6. Run cIOS36_rev10-Installer and choose WAD Installation



7. Run WAD-Manager again. Choose IOS249 and install WADs 01-18



8. While still in WAD Manager install SystemMenuv###.wad



9. Run preloaderv0.29-cred and press 1 to install



10. Hold reset while powering on to access preloader and set preloader settings. In preloader hacks enable "Skip disc update check" and "enable region free" save these settings and press B to exit to the preloader menu and select top option of "systemmenu" with A to get to your Wii menu.



Next



This will install a modified version of system menu 4.0, it will retain all the functionality of the older system menus but also give you the SD card menu for more VC/WiiWare/Channels



Download the files here and here.



1. Unzip them



2. Open the Firmware Updater and rename the file Firmware-Updater_4.0.dol to boot.dol



3. Get your SD card from your Wii and put it in your PC



4. Copy and paste the Firmware updater and IOS60 installer folders into the apps folder on your SD card



5. Put the SD card back in your wii and open up the Homebrew channel



6. Go to Firmware Updater and install it.



7. Return to the Homebrew Channel and install IO60 installer

say NO to install IOS61

say YES to install IOS60

say YES to patch IOS60

say NO to install the shop channel



8. Return to the Homebrew Channel and reinstall preloader.



9. Move on to step 8 if this worked for you

If it didn't go to step 7 and try that





Some parts of this were taken from GBATEMP forums.

There are additional instructions on how to get backups to play in the disk channel on this page.
