It's certainly odd. When your GC+ arrives, it might be worth going into the system menu settings and checking what firmware you're on. If it's on 4.3 like it should be, then the Wii might just have some fucky custom IOS modules from a previous owner that are messing with it?
Knowing my luck that is correct. I'll try to remember to post an update

Does it happen with all japanese games or some in particular? Can you tell me which ones you were trying?

I only have 1 japanese game currently it's kamen rider super climax heroes. Originally I was using usb loader gx for wii games until something happened and it wouldn't work with wii games anymore.

GC2Wiimote Just Didn't Work For Me In Version 2 But It Started Working In Version 1.6, Although I Was Hoping To Play Metroid Prime Trilogy With It Every Game In The Collection In 1.6 Just Freezes On The Now Loading Screen, I Haven't Been Able To Try It In 2.0 As GC2Wiimote Didn't Function For Me In That Version

It's working now seems like I had to reinstall some cios
You should not install any cios with RVLoader, you might actually break things.

That's Surprising, I Just Somehow Got It Working, I Switched Back To RVLoader Version 2.0 And My GC2Wiimote Started Working In Metroid Prime Trilogy, Although It Crashed When Attempting To Open Metroid Prime, I Was Able To Open Metroid Prime 2 And It Works Pretty Well Except For The Pointer Being Off Center Although I Think I Messed That Up Myself By Spinning It Around Too Fast, Is There A Way To Reset/Center The Pointer Position?

Update: I Accidentally Dropped My Powerbrick On My Extension Cables Off Switch And It Turned My Wii Off And When I Turned It Back On Now GC2Wiimote Isn't Working In Prime Trilogy Anymore

Update Update: I Forgot I Made The A Button Map To The R Button And I Was Pressing The A Button Which I Mapped To The B Button Which Why It Wasn't Doing Anything Although Now It Works Again

I'll keep that in mind if something breaks in the future but as of now everything seems to be running fine loading and saving wii games are currently working as intended.

Can anyone confirm if GC2Wiimote in this allows for remapping the wiimote & nunchuck shake motions?

I have a disability and I'm looking to play Bully using this but I'm not able to do the motion controls anymore & the wii version is the best.

I can't find any documentation on what features the gc2wiimote functions allow remapping for.

Thanks for confirming. If you do add this, will you only implement it to RVLoader, or are there any plans to update the stand alone GC2Wiimote mod? Would really love to see it added no matter what, just wondering on the scope.

Since I got no reply before. I will ask again:

How to you use cheats? What folder do they go in? Since there is no tutorial on it, I looked at the dol file in HxD.
It seems to be RVLoader/Hiidra/Cheats. I tried this, and nothing works. I go to the cheat selector on the game options menu and no cheats show up. I press A on the GC controller and it freezes and says it will reload in 5 seconds.

There are not any compatibility lists at the moment. Your best bet is to look at the RVLoader GitHub issues section, some games have been reported there. If a game flat out doesn't work with GC2Wiimote (Doesn't register the controller as you mentioned), please make an issue there so Aurelio can look into it. You can also find a list of Wii games that use traditional control schemes here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Wii_games_with_traditional_control_schemes

You can also find the input methods supported for each game on Dolphin's game tracker: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=New_Super_Mario_Bros._Wii

The mii import app currently doesn't work as far as I'm aware. You may be able to use a homebrew to modify the Miis, I'm not sure. I believe Aurelio has fixed this for the upcoming RVLoader update, but don't quote me on that.

The Wii menu goes black because of a regression in RVLoader where the VGA patches needed for the screen to recognize the video signals no longer are applied in the Wii menu. The modder you purchased from did everything correctly as far as that goes. It may be fixed in a future update, I'm not sure
Super Mario Galaxy 2 goes to a black screen after credits everytime, i cant unclock the special world. I'm using the Gboy portable.

Where can i find the saves? I found no corresponding raw file in the saves folder. I did find a config file in the rvlloader folder; this site does not allow me to attach said .cfg file.

I cant even attach the whole emunand folder.
Yeah we have an upload restriction on the forum, but a zip file should work if it's small enough. If you scroll down on the forum index page and check the right hand pane, you'll find the join link for the BitBuilt discord and can send Aurelio the zipped files that way
