Dumping is the action of taking the data on the disc and making an image with it and saving it either on a SD card or a USB drive. I think you can also dump via network; but knowing the wii’s network speed I’m pretty sure you want to avoid that.
Maybe someone knows exactly where this option is in USB Loader GX; because I’m sure it’s there but I haven’t used theses softwares for so long I can’t remember how it actually layered. All I know is that you need to have RB3 disc selected.
What you could try is booting the disc through cIOS249 if lets you (It can with backup discs so why not original copies I guess), this could let you load customs; however It’s not the first time I propose this and I don’t think I’ve ever got a confirmation on if this works or not so I guess it’s worth a short for the time it takes.
I think I’ve heard of some people that have been able to boot from their disc using IOS249. The important part is getting the game to boot with that IOS since that’s what allows fake signing, which is what customs rely on.
Hi.

I think this is one of the newer versions that doesn’t perform the same way for customs. You have 2 options here: either you go back with an older version (I’m using the stable 5.0 and it works fine for me) or you go back one or two pages in this very thread an read about it there.
Hello!!
I followed to tutorial exactly, but i ran into some problems…
1) I could not find a 16-byte common key to use…I have a 32-byte common key file instead
2) When I ran packdlc.bat, it would pop up for a millisecond and go away. I recorded it on my phone to read it. It said…
‘u8it’ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
‘wadpacker’ is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file
Could not find C:Documents and SettingsMaxMy Documentscustoms folderRB2_DLC
Could not find C:Documents and SettingsMaxMy Documentscustoms foldertitle.wad
Could not find C:Documents and SettingsMaxMy Documentscustoms folder 00.bin
No files were created after I got this error, disallowing me from playing customs. What can I do to fix this??

Nothing to do with Dolphin versions. 0000007d is not a valid slot. That was reserved for banner data at one point and does not appear in the TMD. You can skip the number, or go back to 00000001 if you haven’t used it already. It doesn’t look like you’re using them and sZAE has a lot of usable slots at the beginning.

Heres a 16-byte common key, https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B3CHceCo6lvhMEhUZ2xISk9iRVU

Even with the correct common key, I’m still getting the errors. Do I need to have “u8it” and “wadpacker”??

Yes, you should have these. These should have come with your download.
Yup I never noticed those in WinRAR. I got two songs in the game but it said “Add-On content could not be restored to Wii System Memory”. I think this is due to the fact that I switched to IOS 249 but I’m not 100% on that

Ugh. Just now noticed that someone replied without quoting me. ;-; Anyway, so I found a blank MSTORE.vff so I could use FSToolbox to replace mine with the blank one, since WiiXplorer STILL can’t see inside that stupid data folder.
Turns out Uprising (the one song I’m currently using as my guinea pig to see if a custom song will load) still won’t load properly, even after a cache reset. I looked in the settings for USB Loader GX, and it turns out that the default CIOS it’ll use is 249 after all, so that’s not the problem, apparently. I can’t think of anything else that we’ve missed, help?Ugh.

Really sorry for out topic, @StackOverflow0x can you make code $Concentration Mode v2 for Guitar Hero World Tour Wii dolphin?

Maybe it’s your ng-id. How did you fill in the value?
And also, don’t bother resetting the cache until after the loading errors go away. Nothing will get cached if it can’t pass this validation.

You too? Check back a few pages and follow along with what speedyquader checked. It could still be many things.

Don’t those games already have concentration mode? I can’t promise this will happen considering it’s an entirely different game.

I got the ng_id exactly the way it’s instructed in the instructions.
“For those loading DLC on the NAND, you’re done at this point. Just run the script and you’ll have your working .APP files.
For those using SD cards, you’ll need two more files: ng_id.txt and common-key. Blank placeholders are in the packing folders by default. They won’t work by themselves! To get ng_id.txt, take any official DLC you have downloaded and drag it into the Wii Converter window of C3 CON Tools. You’ll be asked to save a text file.”
I found where my Wii saved the official songs that I bought a while ago, and went from there.
Edit: I’m trying to be as helpful as possible, please bear with me! ;-;
