I can't get NO programs to run, the only prog that will work is SNES9X.
I can't get WiiPhyics to work , FCEU, SCRUMMM, Region Free, Etc, I have tryed these programes but nothing.
I put them in my SD. BOOT.ELF (or DOL ) in the folder, etc.
Load up zelda, speak to the guy, then install etc...
Nothing, it only picks up snex9x.
:crybaby: pllleaasee helllp
Am i doing something wrong? maybe some can give me a quick how to do on installing a programe.
thanks

Use the homebrew channel. use the twilight hack to install it, then use THAT to run your homebrew.

homebrew is not installable... If you have the homebrew channel installed, then you need to have the files in the apps folder. the file structure should be like this...
x:\apps\duckhunt\boot.elf
obviously this would be for duckhunt. With this file structure you enter the homebrew channel and run it from that. If you have no idea what you're doing then you should be getting your homebrew from our wiibrew packgen. Extract it directly to your SD card and it's set up to be able to run through the homebrew channel.

apps don't work but home brew does, but sometimes it doesn't let me to go certain files,
there squares where you choose your programs have a gab in between so i cant go anywhere besides WAD Installer
The files are all there, elf or Dol,
I have tyred putting them in apps
i have tyred putting them in emuloader
sometimes they work in homebrew folder but only if i install more then 2 or so programs.
so that means i cant have only one program if i wanted it
Its really frustrating me as i have put them in all the folders now, this morning i had to install about 5 programes just to be able to use one.

You are doing something wrong...
Just gotta make sure...
1. Have you properly installed the Homebrew channel on your Wii? (in the wii menu, you have the homebrew channel)
2. Your homebrew is in the appropriate folders on your SD card
x:\apps\duckhunt\boot.elf
x:\apps\tetris\boot.elf
and so on
3. When you enter the homebrew channel with your SD card already inserted in the slot, can you see the applications listed?
The twilight hack can run homebrew, but since the release of the homebrew channel it is not needed. You should only have to use the hack to INSTALL the homebrew channel, then from there you are done with it. You should have an actual channel on your Wii, and enter that channel to run your homebrew.

That just sounds like a compatabilty issue with the emulator, there's probably nothing you can do but wait for a new release.
