how to run codes off preloaded games?

[Robby368]

Ok sorry again for my ignorance and hopefully I'm putting this in the right forum!

I HAVE searched but not much comes back for specifically what I have going on, but I probably just wasn't using the right search words.

So here's my setup.

No wireless connection as of yet...will soon though.
Wii 4.2u
Wii Play Original disk (the only game I want to mod)
Gecko 1.9.3.1
code downloader
cheat manager.
homebrew channel

I have Punch out already loaded as a channel (no disk) that was put on there from the previous owner. I used Code Downloaded to get the codes. But I can't save the punch out file to the SD card, the wii won't let me copy it. So I'm assuming I need to launch it through gecko right? Can't do that since it reads the disk right?
jeez I'm freakin retarded with this stuff!

Just did some more searching...do I need a preloader?

From what I've heard, preloader is a bad thing...

Remove these two:
code downloader
cheat manager.

and get this one:

Gecko OS can launch channels. Just make sure the SD Cheats option is turned on in Gecko OS.

Ok I killed the cheat manager and code downloader. Got that app succussfully installed, found the codes, and made the gct files for them. All is super duper, except when I 'launch game' in gecko it tells me there's no disk.  :(   How do I get around that? And I also made sure SD cheats is on....

don't 'launch game'
'launch channel'

if there is no option for launch channel, do a search on here for that problem. Others have had it too

I did some reading, and a lot of what I saw was about downgrading. Should I do that and what version? Kinda looks pretty dangerous.  :/

You just have to patch IOS36 for that.
Just do a search here or on google.

You can also find some info here.

[doomkaiber001]

Don't downgrade! It's dangerous to your Wii

[cydp3]

Yes, doomkaiber is right, don't downgrade. Try what Romaap said.
