Can someone help me out please?
Im really lost here on what to do. . .
So i have never had a friend code for smash before and am very new to the competitive scene.
When i try to connect to WFC to get a friend code it says Error Code 20110. Where do i go from there? And will everything work out even though ive never had a friend code before?
Again im really lost about what to take as my first step here and would really appreciate the help. Thank you!

I tried doing a bunch of things for the usb loader but it doesn't seem to be working for me. I'm still confused as to what file to put on my hdd and what to put on my sd card. I assume the files I put in (iso was split in two because of fat32 format) the folder then ran the patch (which seemed to have a different name "patch wiimfi", there was another of two bat files named patch dwc but I*m assuming I'm supposedto use the wiimfi file) are the files I'm supposed to put back on my sd card? while the bigger file from the images folder is supposed to go on my harddrive. The problem there was that I had to use wii backup manager to split it up like before because the filesize was too big. Then I tried to run it on usb loader gx but it just sent me back to the homebrew channel. I run brawl fine if I use an unpatched iso and my hacks work fine if I use a smaller sd card, but I had to buy a bigger one 12gb sandisk sdhc to fit the iso on the sd card, but the issue is that it doesn't seem to load any of the hacks at all (no custom textures come up even if I try to make them). So my issue is, does usb loader gx even support sdhc? I get priiloader and homebrew so I assume the wii supports it, but it doesn't seem like usb loader does. Any suggestions? Sorry if the post is a bit unstructured.
So I tried doing the Homebrew method and it kept prompting "Please insert an SD Card" I'm using a USB because I can't find my SD card so is there any way around this?
Hey man, if you haven't already found this out, there's actually a Project M Wifi Matchmaking thread here. That's probably the place you should go to find someone to play.
Hello, my name is adam and i need help with setting up project m online. My problem is that when i start up brawl, and go to custom stages, nothing loads up. Before i could play project m, but now i cant even access it. I think i may have downloaded the new save data and gecko into the wrong areas of the 2gb sd card but i'm sure they're at the root of the sd. I also copied the new save file to my wii and made sure to delete the custom stages so i think the problem lies with the sd card. If anyone can help me solve this problem, i would greatly appreciate it. And maybe we could play together .
When I insert my SD card to get the save file with all the characters in stages, it says the device inserted in the SD card slot can't be read. Any idea why?
Alright so i got some problems with the 86420 error code and the 61070 error code with a certain person in particular is there anyway to fix this problem or will i just not be able to connect to this person?

So i've added the wiimfi code to my build (using gecko). is there anything else i need to do? it seems to connect fine, then i make a room and get a hard freeze.

launching with USB and Gecko. as far as i've seen it should just be adding the wifi patch code to the GCT. it works fine for B- and PM (haven't tried vbrawl) i don't really have anyone else to connect to. my testers freeze too.
Is there anyway run Wiimmfi to connect to PM servers while running Bawl.iso from USB loader GX?
I have to do so because my Brawl pal disc doesn't work with PM because it requires a NTSC Brawl disc.

I need help with setting up Brawl with altwfc on Dolphin.
I am able to patch the game and i am able to at least connect online, however i get disconnected after a short while.
I am unsure if i am supposed to have set a DNS server on Wii and my NIC, cause i can connect whether i do it or not, but i get disconnected nevertheless.
I must be doing something wrong but i can't figure out what, so here i am asking for assistance
The one with the Patcher i guess, except there is no disc so i just patch the iso.
I set the DNS on both Wii and my PC.
patch-dwc.
Though the one i want working is: http://wiimmfi.de/
patch-wiimmfi, but i get error 23917. Which says it's a ban from googling, but i haven't even made an account yet;S
Im having a huge isue. I can go online and all but its ver 3.0 and i cant update because it forces me to use gecko. Idk how to update pm with gecko so can anyone help?
I tried doing almost all of these, but my SD card doesn't read. It's licensed by Nintendo to work on the wii, but I get no response, especially when I try all these methods.
I've downloaded version 3.02 and everything is working great, but is there a way to play 3.6 online? Or will the game work if I replace all the .pac's and pcs's with the ones from 3.6?
I'm playing 3.6 on netplay through Dolphin, but I wanted to play on the Wii with a few friends that don't have pc's that can run Dolphin fast enough, but have set up their Wii's to play homebrew and everything
If you are getting an error code 20100 or are randomly not able to join someone's game, this is an issue with the server hardware. The issue seems to be occurring off-and-on. Wiimm is very sick and is planning on upgrading the server when he recovers.
Please remember to read the error codes section before asking what an error code means, it will save you time!

Welcome to the original Brawl-centric guide on using the Wiimmfi custom WFC servers! This thread is regularly updated. Post any questions in this thread, and if we can't answer them, try the original wii-homebrew forums.
Quick note: "(Mirror)" means a download link that has the file you're looking for if the original link is not working.
Step 1) Creating a new Brawl save
Step 2) Connecting to Custom Servers
(Preserved for archival purposes: this collapsed content is the old instructions for saving your FC, which no longer works)
STEP 1 - RESERVING YOUR FRIEND CODE
Do you know your friend code? If so, go to http://wiimmfi.profeibe.at, enter your friend code (remember to include the dashes), and your Game ID (RSBE for NTSC, RSBP for PAL, RSBJ for Japan, RSBK for Korea)
Allow at least 24 hours for it to retrieve your info. If you get error code 60000 after that, it didn't work and you need to do step 1.5.
Old instructions are in the spoiler
Friend codes for Nintendo Wifi games are assigned server-side. The connection between your Wii and its friend code happens via a "profile", which tells Nintendo's servers that wii A belongs to friend code B. Your Wii knows what its corresponding friend code is, and will always attempt to log in with that friend code. The first time you connect to Wifi, your Wii is designated a friend code from Nintendo's servers.
This is a problem for you, because the server is the one doing the assigning. If a new server sees you trying to connect, but doesn't know what your friend code is because it never assigned you one itself, it will try to assign you a new friend code, while your Wii is still trying to use your old one (which may have already been assigned to someone else by this new server). The only way to rectify this is to erase your Brawl save and create a new one, wiping your wii's memory of your old friend code.
However, if you act fast, you won't need to erase your brawl save. Wiimm and MrBean35000VR of the Wii-Homebrew community have 2 ways for you to save your friend code:
A: Wiimm is hosting a DNS server that will collect your profile information as soon as you use it to establish a connection to Nintendo WFC. Because Nintendo WFC is going down, you need to do this before May 20.
B: Wiimm is also hosting a site where you can just input your FC information manually, and his system will retrieve your profile on its own. Because this takes up to 24 hours to complete, no more friend codes will be accepted after May 18.
Go to http://wiimmfi.profeibe.at/ (NTSC Brawl's game ID is RSBE) and input your FC. Input the FC for at least one of your friends in your roster, too, to be on the safe side.
When data about your friend code is collected, it will be used to construct a database for use by new servers, making the new server think it assigned you the friend code you already have. That way, your friend code will still work, and you won't need to make a new Brawl save!
Method 1 will work for yourself, and does not take long to do. You only need to do it once, and you're safe.
However, Method 2 will allow you to not only submit your friend code, but other people's friend codes too.
I urge you to submit as many friend codes as possible. Not only will you be able to keep coming online, but so will all your friends. If as many people submit as many friend codes as possible, the online community will continue to thrive.
If you don't do any of this, you can still connect after May 20, but you will need a new brawl save.
STEP 1 - CREATING A NEW BRAWL SAVE
You need to erase your Brawl save and make a new one.
Here is an explanation why: Friend codes are stored server-side, since the server is the one doing the assigning. If a new server sees you trying to connect, but doesn't know what your friend code is because it never assigned you one itself, it will try to assign you a new friend code, while your Wii is still trying to use your old one (which may have already been assigned to someone else by this new server). If you did not register your friend code before May 18, you will most likely get an error code 60000 when you try to connect. The only way to rectify this is to erase your Brawl save and create a new one, wiping your wii's memory of your old friend code.
If you don't care about your old Brawl save, you can erase it - don't worry about unlocking characters and stages, I have a Brawl save file for download that's got you covered.
Instructions:
Erase your Brawl save from your wii. You can do this in the wii system menu. You do NOT need to format your wii.
Put the "private" folder to the root of your SD card
put the SD card in the Wii
go to Wii settings from the home menu > Data management > Save data > Wii > SD card, and copy or move the file onto your Wii.
You now have a brand new, never-before-wified save file! (Thanks swordgard!)
STEP 2 - CONNECTING TO A CUSTOM SERVER
I can NOT tell you how much better or worse the lag will be, because like with any other game, it depends on the connections of you and all your opponents. There is no way to change how Brawl handles its netcode, so if your ping is worse than 25 ms, don't expect any improvements over the old servers.
You have tons of options to play Brawl or PM on Wiimm's new server! Here they are:
Brawl (Hackless method):
You can use Stack Smash to launch either Riivolution or Gecko. If you don't plan on adding any other modifications, it doesn't matter which one you use. Riivolution is generally better and offers greater flexibility.
REMOVE ALL CUSTOM STAGES FROM BRAWL, OTHERWISE YOUR WII WILL CRASH.
Copy the contents of the .zip file you chose onto the root of your SD card.
Load your copy of Brawl and go to Stage Builder.
Your screen should start doing weird stuff. If it is just endlessly loading a custom stage in the vault, reset your wii and try again. It will work after a few tries.
Click "Launch".
The game will reload. You can now connect to Wifi.
Extract its contents (apps and bslug folders) to the root of your SD card.
On your Wii, set your primary DNS to 176.9.146.163, and the secondary DNS to the IP address of your router (you can find this in Windows by running CMD and typing "ipconfig /all", it is the value for "Default gateway") - This step may not be necessary, but if you end up not being able to connect, try it.
Put the SD card in your Wii, launch Homebrew Channel, insert your Brawl disc. Run the Auto Wiimmfi Patcher.
Done!
You must run this app every time you want to use Wifi.
(Thanks Ben Benson!)
Brawl (Homebrew + Riivolution):
For now, use this code: (credit to Diddy Kong and Doqtor Kirby)
You will probably get an error that your code file is longer than 256 lines if you're using a lot of other codes. If you get this error, do the following:
If you don't have a TXT of your currently existing code file, you can download a raw wifi code file: RSBERSBJRSBP
Then, use this program to merge your code file with mine: GCT Fusionizer | (Mirror)
Place the .EXE file in the folder where your .GCT file is located. Download my GCT file, rename it "code.gct", and put it in the folder with your .GCT file. Run the application.
If you don't already have a GCT code file, just use mine. RSBERSBJRSBP
A main.dol patch would be ideal, but is currently not supported, by virtue of riivolution's compatibility issues with Brawl.
If you already have a GCT code file, add this to it:
You will probably get an error that your code file is longer than 256 lines if you're also using the File Patch code. If you get this error, do the following:
If you don't have a TXT of your currently existing code file, you can download a raw wifi code file: RSBERSBJRSBP
Then, use this program to merge your code file with mine: GCT Fusionizer | (Mirror)
Place the .EXE file in the folder where your .GCT file is located. Download my GCT file, rename it "code.gct", and put it in the folder with your .GCT file. Run the application.
If you don't already have a GCT code file, just use mine. RSBERSBJRSBP
Before following the below instructions, you may want to set the primary DNS on your Wii to 176.9.146.163, and the secondary DNS to the IP address of your router (you can find this in Windows by running CMD and typing "ipconfig /all", it is the value for "Default gateway") - This step may not be necessary, but if you end up not being able to connect, try it.
The following steps were adapted from Wiimm's article:
Copy all images you want to patch into this folder.
Windows-User now start the create-image.bat, Linux- and Mac-User start the create-image.sh.
Now all games in the folder get patched. After patching, you find the new images in the folder wiimmfi-images. You can now copy those to your HDD or USB-Stick.
If you haven't done so already, create a folder in the root of your SD called "wbfs" and inside it create another folder that has "[RSBE]" in it somewhere (or [RSBP], [RSBK], [RSBJ], depending on your disc). (you can call it [RSBE] Brawl, whatever you want, just have that ID in there). Put your patched ISO in that folder
Run your USBLoader from the Homebrew channel (note make sure your sd card and usb stick are not in the wii at the same time), and launch Brawl. You're good to go!
Error code 60000 You need a new friend code, proceed to Step 1.5 of this guide. (I can't tell you what exactly caused this error for you. You may have regged your friend code too late or incorrectly, the backup process may not have been able to locate anyone on your friends list, you may have had an empty friends list, are usually the reasons.) Another possibility is that your friend code just has not been retrieved yet. Wait until the form in Step 1 goes down permanently before creating a new save, if you care about your save.
Error code 20110 The patch failed, you may have not installed it correctly or it may be bugged. Try the steps again.
Error code 20100 Internal server error. If you get this error code, it's not because of anything you did. Either try to connect again, or just wait for it to be fixed.
Error code 31020 Server is undergoing maintenance
Error code 23915 "Banned: Abuse using of a console identifier" - This happens when you have used a Wii LAN adapter, and either switched to wireless, or changed LAN adapters. This is NOT intentional and the server devs need to fix it. DiddyKong is escalating the issue. As of June 18 2014 there is no way to fix this error.
Error code 61070 - Not sure what causes this, but reboot your wii and it should go away.
Hopefully in the future, everyone working on servers will co-ordinate so that we can have multiple networked servers, meaning less lag for you!
Special thanks to DiddyKong (aka tbtechwiz) for walking me through all this information. He is a real gem in the Smash community who works so far behind the scenes that we have no idea how lucky we are to have him. I am not an authority on this topic, and am just here to present it to the Smash community in a collected and digestible way.
The site on the first page says it's no longer able to enter new friend codes, how do I go about getting one? and will this work if I have Pm on the homebrew channel?
Please encourage as many people as you can to use Brawl Wiimmfi. There are currently about 117 Mario Kart Wii Players, and I'd like to see that we top that by 10x.
