For Twilight Hack, place the file boot.dol from the Menu Loader folder on the root of your SD card. Load with the Twilight Hack.

User guide

Simply load the .dol file using one of the above methods. Select your options using the D-pad on the Wii remote and then select "Launch" to boot with your chosen settings.

Note that an imported GameCube game can only save to a memory card that is either empty or only has saves from its own region.

To use the Region Free setting, be sure to set IOS to IOS30. This is true if you have installed the 10/23 update, though this has not yet been tested with System Menu 3.4.

Available Options:

  • Debugging Mode (via USBGecko).
  • RegionFree Mode for Wii Channels.
  • RegionFree Mode for Wii and GameCube discs.
  • No Music in the Wii Menu.
  • IOS selection to choose which IOS the System Menu loads..
  • No Health/Safety Screen.
  • Improved RegionFree functionality..
  • Disable updates.

Note that Menu Loader does not work with Wii version 3.4 or higher.

The program must be run each time you want to reboot under these conditions.
