Wiimms ISO Tools edited ISO, works fine on both Dolphin and real Wii. Only the music files and intro video were edited.
What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
It has been a while since I modded my Wii so the information I provide should be verified.
Long ago, Dolphin required IOS 36 (I used IOS36-64-v3608.wad from NUS, MD5 from Dolphin 5.0-9: 9c0dfcc0bdecf9d88c5e1a34039e4dfe, SHA1 from certutil: 792c0a4180b3f3eff90ed40bb9898263e0ace540) to be manually installed for Brawl mods to load via Gecko OS. I believe that was a requirement of Gecko OS and not Brawl itself. At some point, users didn't need to manually install this wad anymore. As of 5.0-2712, the requirement for IOS 36 has returned.
Note that this requirement matches the real Wii but it's something that Dolphin probably wants to include so users don't need to do it.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
- Create a portable.txt on the latest dolphin (5.0-5934 at the time of writing this) and run Dolphin to generate the User directory.
- Enable insert SD card, set Brawl as default ISO, and set ISO directories.
- Set up a Brawl mod pack for Dolphin. The one described in #10636 can be used as an example.
- Run Gecko OS
- Launch Game
- Observe "This Game Requires IOS 36"

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)
#9819 and #10662 will complicate debugging this issue. Also keep in mind which builds support SDHC when testing this issue.
