Mighty Channels
(Previously known as Triiforce MRC)
Mighty Channels is a channel loader for Wii that uses Waninkoko's cIOS NAND emulator. It loads your SD card or USB device like if it was your Wii's NAND, so you can play your purchased Wii Shop Channel titles from your SD card or your USB HDD!.Has to be Fat32...NO! it doesn't work with NTFS or WBFS
Q:If you can load games of SD card via SD menu why would i use this?
A:When you load the vc/wiiware from SD, the games have to be installed to your nand everytime you launch them so it can have an affect on wii(s) nand while if you use Mighty Channels your are using your SD or USB and causes no harm to your wii.

File Structure For Mighty Channels:
On the root of your USB or SD:

They should be:

cIOS Set Up For Mighty Channels
For Mighty Channels to work best you need cIOS[38,53,55,56,57] D2X
You will need 2 or 3 depends what games work with what base.
It can be in ANY slot as long as you use arguments in your meta.xml
cIOS D2X Installer
Download Extract (should be SD:/apps/d2x installer/boot.dol)
On first screen chose an IOS with Trucha(Fakesign Bug) 236,36,249,250
1.Select D2X vX(always go for the newest)
2.Chose the base IOS
3.Pick your slot(each time you chose the same slot the installation will overwrite)
meta.xml Example
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<app version="1.0">
<name>Mighty Channels</name>
<version>11</version>
<release_date>201101250000</release_date>
<coder>Marc</coder>
<short_description>USB/SD Channel loader</short_description>
<arguments>
<arg>--ios=2XX</arg>
<arg>--auto=USB</arg>
<arg>--partition=1</arg>
<arg>--path=/nand</arg>
</arguments>
</app>
Using cIOS D2X you can have all the folder inside one /nand makes it a lot easier & if you have more then one partition you can chose which one to load from.Changing which IOS the game will load with
SD or USB:/nand/import,meta,shared1,shared2,title,sys,ticket,tmp
Loading Mighty Channels
Put the mighty_channels folder(from the download) in your apps folder on SD or USB
[Use the meta.xml example from here]
You can launch the MC from homebrew channel it will auto use the device you tell it to if you add in the arguments auto= USB or SD.
You can use the forwarder linked above and you will get the channel but it will load mighty channels from SD or USB.(where ever you have it stored pay attention to forwarder paths)
MC should load up and display channels = games/titles.
How to load images/banners

Compatibility
- All Virtual Console games work.
- ~90% WiiWare games work.
- If a WiiWare games does not work for you, the 'Load apploader' option in the configuration menu (press 1 button) can solve it in most cases. The other options should not affect compatibility.
- Some games need an already created savegame before doing the NAND dump. Mighty Channels automatically creates the savegames for some of these games.
- rev21 d2x users can try to install cIOS using different bases, some games only work using certain bases.
- Wi-Fi connection during game does not work correctly.
Extra Info
- Select a channel and push 1 button, you will be able to configure different parameters like video mode or Ocarina cheats for that channel.
- Sort channels
- Select a channel and hold B button, you will be able to move the selected channel to another position. You can sort the games like you want.
- Otherwise, you can push 2 in order to automatically sort channels by system.
- If you are using cIOS d2x you can configure certain options (like the IOS to use or the partition and the path where the virtual NAND is located) editing the meta.xml file (removing the commented code) that comes with the application and using latest Homebrew Channel.
- The Manage NAND option in HOME menu lets you:
- Fix 'Return to Wii menu': This options renames /ticket/00000001/00000002.tik file to _00000002.tik in the virtual NAND: This will force to reboot the console when you push the 'Return to Wii menu' button in the HOME menu in-game, avoiding a black screen freeze. Unfortunately, applications like Sneek won't boot anymore if this option is enabled. You can enable and disable this option whenever you want.
- Update SYSCONF: update the System Menu configuration file from real NAND to virtual NAND, this fixes some Wiimote desync errors and also updates configuration (useful if we changed from a 4:3 to a 16:9 screen, for example)
- Update Miis: update the Miis file from real NAND to virtual NAND
- Mighty Channels look can be modified using a custom skin.
Copy all files on skin_example directory in sd:/config/mighty/ and edit them like you want following these rules:
- PNG format
- RGB (no indexed palette)
- don't change the image sizes
FAQ/Errors
* NOTE: Some games require a savefile created before
getting loaded on Triiforce. The savefile must be
created before doing the NAND dump.
* Wi-Fi does not work (in cIOS rev17 or lower)
