    WII ONLY!
    So, this is a tutorial how to use GCMUtility to make Multi-boot games and how to burn it multi-boot.iso
    Hope it helps you guys out.

    Download and extract GCMUtility in a empty map.
    http://wiki.gbatemp.net/w/images/b/b6/GCMUtility0.5.zip
    Open GCMUtility 0.5.

    I’m going to make a mutli-boot Legend of Zelda The Wind Waker and Four Swords Adventures.
    I just gonna add two games. (if you want you can add more games)
    After you add your games the ‘’Shrink’’ option will be enable select one game at the time and click on ‘’shrink’'.(shrink all your games you wan't to mutli-boot)
    Give the new shrink file a name and location to save it.

    The shrinkin process will take a couple of seconds.


    After you ‘’Shrink’’ your games you need to select all of them and click on the ‘’Generate Multiboot ISO’’ option and gif it a name and location to save the new Multi-boot game.

    OPTIONAL
    When that’s done you need to burn your files to a DVD to play it
    Download and install ImgBurn
    http://download.imgburn.com/SetupImgBurn_2.5.2.0.exe

    Open ImgBurn and select ‘’Write image file to disc’’

    Use always a DVD-R to burn Wii and GameCube games for the Wii!!
    Now select your Multi-booted shrunken file

    Test mode: off
    Verify: off (this wil ruin your game)
    Burn speed: 1x (recomended)
    DVD: DVD-R

    Now you can burn your Multi-boot game.


    Feel free to leave tips and be sure to tell me any flaws in the tutorial.

    Verify doesn't ruin your game. It checks if it's fully readable.

    You only do that for dvd movies...hell it's best without.

    On wii/gc games it's even worse because the way the iso's are written is not normal.



    Also-this tutorial doesn't work for gamecube's or for those using mini dvd's right?

    I've burned all my Wii/GC games with it on and they all work fine. I have around 32 GC games (all burned myself).

    Ok good for you, I just make this tutorial for people who don't know how to burn GC games, If you burn them in another way well good for you just don't post on my tutorial then.

    I would think that it would work on a GC, since in GC mode, this works perfectly on the Wii...
    And yes hypnos, this will work with Mini-DVDs as long as you shrink the images. Perhaps two will fit if they are small enough.

    Yes.

    Backup launcher or not, it's still in GC mode. And GC mode is meant to let the Wii act as a GC.

    Very much so.

    You have learned well, but much more to conquer.

    *is proud* lol

    If it works on a Wii in GC mode it will work on a GC.
