Does this work with a SDHC card?

[GUIDE] Connecting to Brawl/PM Wifi post-WFC shutdown: Occasional server issues are temporary

Not with hackless. Brawl doesn't recognize SDHC cards, which are the ones I use.

Nice first post.

Hey guys, I was looking into this and got stumped at step 1 aha. I researched a bit and figured out how to find my "console's Wii Number", but it's 16 digits long. Obviously, that's not right; Brawl friend codes are 12 digits. So I tried accessing the Brawl friend code in the only way I knew how - via checking your Friend Roster in Brawl...except I can't do that because it first needs to connect to the internet to access anything related to WiFi. Halp? How to I find my Brawl friend code if I didn't note it down before the servers died? (for those who played me on WiFi before and are wondering why this is an issue...I recently got a new Wii, so the friend code would be different :/ )

If you hadn't been on NWFC on the new Wii, then you haven't even been assigned a friend code yet. There's nothing to retrieve. If you did have one, but can't remember it, then I'd still say your best option is just going through the steps required to get an FC from the new servers. Not sure what much else you can do.
Nice trips.

Witch one works with a 8GB Sd card then?

Any of the Homebrew-required methods.
I can't really suggest anything since the issue is beyond my understanding.

Wouldn't know, don't want to try anything like that with my Wii U. Not up for invalidating the extended warranty my sister bought to be included with it. I use my Wii for everything Brawl/P:M.
I assume hackless still wouldn't work with an SDHC on Wii U because Brawl is still Brawl. You're still loading through stage builder in the same game. But for the Homebrew methods and all that jazz? You'll have to ask/refer to someone else, I can't test to confirm any of that for you or for myself.

You could try looking/asking around here: http://forum.wii-homebrew.com/board42-kreativitaet/mkw-server-project-english/
Hope it helps!

I downloaded the wiimmfipatcher and loaded brawl through it. I went to the Stage Builder to try and load Project M, but nothing happens. It just sits there, and for some reason it says that I have a custom stage (w/out showing its picture) pending to be created.
Why? Is it possible to use PM through wiimmfi at all?

I keep trying to connect on Project M and I always get Error 20110. I've tried removing everything from my SD and returning it there (the Hackless, WiFi Safe version from Project M's site) and it didn't work. I then tried taking the files from the .zip given in this post and copying them over the old ones in my SD card and that didn't work either. Am I missing something? I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here.

I feel like it's worth mentioning here that Basic Brawl/Team Battle works for NTSC users now. One of the Wiimmfi devs finally enabled it for non-PAL regions.

Which "files from the .zip in this post" are you referring to? There are several different sets of .zip files provided that are meant for different things. Not completely sure of the specifics of your issue since it's somewhat of a broad question, but if you haven't already followed all of the instructions from the first post or have tried to unsuccessfully, I would suggest taking the following "path" of steps (there were several options but this was the simplest/easiest imo):
- Follow Step 1 (and 1.5 if necessary)
- Download the Homebrew channel onto your Wii (you should easily be able to find several tutorials on YouTube; the one that I found easiest to follow was the one with the most views)
- In Step 2, follow the section titled "Brawl (Homebrew + Wiimmfi Patcher app)". Ignore every other section with a red title; they accomplish the same thing at the end of the day, but they seem to either take more knowledge/time or end up committing you to a method of booting up PM with usable WiFi that is more of a hassle.
- Scroll down a bit until you find "Project M (Hackless)", and then download the .zip file contents from the mediafire.com link below it. (it's a bit hard to see because it's in a dark purple; if it helps, it happens to be directly under a video in a section titled "Dolphin EMU")
- Now that you have the .zip files for the Wiimmfi Patcher App to work on Homebrew, and the .zip files for PM (Hackless & WiFI-safe) that were modified to work with the new Wimmfi servers, extract the contents from each and just paste them all onto your SD card.
- You should now be able to boot up PM with working WiFi by going to the Homebrew channel, loading the Wiimmfi Patcher app with a Brawl disc inserted in the Wii, and then entering Stage Builder to start PM. Alternatively, if you just want to play PM without working WiFi, you can skip all the Homebrew stuff and start PM via Brawl's Stage Builder like you would normally.

When I try to load Project M from Stage Builder via Wiimmfi Patcher, it just sits there and does nothing. It also shows one stage in there currently being developed (doesn't look like the stage is real either), even though I had no custom stages prior to downloading Project M and Wiimmfi. If I click that custom stage, it just freezes my game and remains there forever until I shut off my console.
Why is this happening? Am I supposed to wait a little longer or something.

Try entering stage builder without the SD card in and seeing if the stage is there too, and then delete it. If you had to do Step 1.5, you'd get the defaulted custom stages back on there and you'll need to delete them again. If that's not the case...idk what to advise other than to make sure all the files you have on there are correct. Wipe the SD card and put the files back on there again from the two folders, something got messed up the first time. If not...maybe you got some files mixed up, or downloaded the wrong files?

Has anyone experienced freezing issues when on WiFi? There are these weird instances when the game would freeze mid-match and I get disconnected.

Taking forever to join most people, while never managing to join the lobby at all. What's the dealio? Others are having this problem as well, so I'm guessing it's prevalent.

Yes, multiple people are experiencing this. If you join a room it just loads endlessly. I don't know what's going on.

I have also been experiencing some trouble. Hope it resolves itself soon.
sounds like a server side issue =(
Also, Rood has suggested we format our SD cards ant retry the PM hackless launcher after doing so. He says that helped some people. I'll give it a try when i'm done playing brawl wifi tonight.

Just letting everyone know that the servers are working again. c:
Edit: Or at least sort-of working again, got a 91010 error while testing it with a friend and also started getting random errors trying to join his room. xP We were playing a match fine a few minutes ago. owo

Blah. I was playing earlier, but I got off then got back on and now it gives me 20110 errors. Are the servers still down?

Friend of mine on Fsmash said the servers are now back up. I'll be checking for myself in a couple minutes, but yeah.
EDIT: Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaait a second, he said they appear to be back down.

I was going to try to do this but now doesn't seem like the time, With the current server issues I have no Idea if the problem is me or the server.
Will try again later though.

I know I'll most likely be linked to check out the stuff in the thread but I've already read every reply and haven't got an answer.
I use an ISO that already has PM loaded on my USB (using USB loader) it because I don't have a 2GB and couldn't make an ISO that would work myself. Does someone know how to make an ISO or has one that would be compatible with this wifi thing?
I'm sorry if this is against the rules or something. Made an account on here just to ask this because no one I know has any idea about this (first I've heard of there being servers to play on!) Thanks in advance!

I would recommend using the method in the USB loader section (it's an ISO patcher so make sure to back up your ISO just in case it does not work). I'm not 100% sure it'll work, but I tried it when the launcher was first released and didn't have problems with it back then.
Either that, or apply the wifi code to your PM codeset. This is not stable so don't use it in tournaments, your wii might crash sometimes but it's still playable.

Yeah, I already made a patched ISO with my current ISO but the reason I'm wary is because I'm not sure if the ISO I currently have is the Wifi safe one and if it's even on patch 3.02, the game's banner when it loads up (the wriststrap warning) says it's 3.0 but I guess I'll just try anyway, thanks!
let us know how it goes
