Hi, I'm going to get ARC. Yes I know it bricks, but for reasons maybe a few of you know, I don't care. Now, would I have to downgrade before getting it? Or is it possible that this IOS can get ARC? Please and thanks. :)http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66649#msg-66649Mon, 20 Jul 2026 12:01:51 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66926#msg-66926 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66926#msg-66926Don't use ARC to install the system menu, you don't wan't to downgrade to 3.2.
ARC requires ios36 to have es-identify. The only wiibrew supported method to restore es-identify to ios36 is to install ios36-v1042. If ARC hangs when you load it, your wii is new and does not run on older ios and would brick if you downgraded system ios and menu to 3.2 level. Once you have a functional ios36 with es-identify you can proceed.

1- Install region select, elua channel for your region you are changing to. If you fail to install these you will have opera brick if you format wii settings
2- Install SM 4.3 of the region you like
3- exit to HBC
4- Install Priiloader
5- Run ARC, change all region settings to match the installed system menu.


Note: If you do ever ignore the advice here and choice to downgrade, you must replace all stubbed system ios files with functional versions. Also new wii do not run on older ios, so don't go below 4.1, or install ios60-v6174 into ios slot 30. Best to stick with a 4.x system menu, no need to go to 3.x.

Perhaps someone will make a wiibrew supported ARC that does not install 3.x system menu or use ios36, some day perhaps. Hint, hint, wink, wink. The current ARC that install 3.2 SM is a very big brick risk, very bad, very bad. Don't use it to install SM. There was a mod of ARC that installed SM 4.1, but it is no longer listed. Not sure what happened to it.

Note 2: Do not restart your wii until the region change is complete. Always exit to HBC, then load the next app, exit back to HBC.]]> mauifrog Homebrew GeneralTue, 21 Jun 2011 08:41:38 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66690#msg-66690 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66690#msg-66690 metroid_maniac Homebrew GeneralFri, 10 Jun 2011 07:37:31 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66676#msg-66676 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66676#msg-66676 dirtrider73068 Homebrew GeneralThu, 09 Jun 2011 01:12:46 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66675#msg-66675 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66675#msg-66675 Luigi886 Homebrew GeneralThu, 09 Jun 2011 01:07:51 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66654#msg-66654 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66654#msg-66654 bg4545 Homebrew GeneralTue, 07 Jun 2011 20:14:41 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66653#msg-66653 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66653#msg-66653set of IOS you have, but you implied you wanted to know if a singular IOS would work here, without specifying which. And if you mean will dop-Mii work, then yes. If you mean will AnyRegion Changer work, then no.]]> SifJar Homebrew GeneralTue, 07 Jun 2011 20:14:14 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66651#msg-66651 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,66649,66651#msg-66651
