### What you need
|
|
|
|
* A computer with either Windows 10 or newer or any Unix-based system

#### Instructions
|
|
|
|
##### Section I - Installing Dolphin
|
|
|
|
If you have Dolphin already installed, skip to Section II
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
1. Download the latest Dolphin beta version, but **not a stable version as these are very outdated!**
|
|
2. Extract the .7z file using a program like 7-Zip or WinRAR.
|
|
3. Start Dolphin.
|
|
4. In Dolphin, go to `Tools` -> `Perform Online System Update` -> Choose your region. 
|
|
|
|
If you have a homebrewed Wii console, you can use a [BootMii NAND dump](bootmii) instead of installing the system files with the System Update option. See [this page](https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=NAND_Usage_Guide) for more information.

|
##### Section II - Installing RiiConnect24
|
|
|
|
If you use a Windows version before Windows 10, you unfortunately cannot use WiiConnect24 inside Dolphin. You can use [this program](https://github.com/RiiConnect24/.VFF-File-Downloader-for-Dolphin) to run it instead.

|
1. Click the link above to go to the GitHub page where the patcher is.
|
|
2. Download `RiiConnect24Patcher.bat` if you are on Windows, and `RiiConnect24Patcher.sh` if you are on a Unix system
|
|
3. On Windows run `RiiConnect24Patcher.bat`. On Unix systems, open Terminal and type `bash`, then drag `RiiConnect24Patcher.sh` into the terminal then press enter. It should look like this: `bash RiiConnect24Patcher.sh`.
|
|
4. Press 1 to choose "`Start`" and confirm your selection by pressing `ENTER`. (NOTE: These screenshots are from the Windows version of the patcher.)
|
|
5. For this guide, choose "`Install RiiConnect24 on your Dolphin Emulator`" 
|
|
6. Choose "`Express (Recommended)`". It will give you everything you need. 
|
|
7. Select your region. 
|
|
8. While you're at it, RiiConnect24 Patcher can additionally download some other optional channels that do not use RiiConnect24. `[X]` represents the options that selected. Just press 5 and `ENTER` if you're not interested. 
|
|
9. Press `1` then `ENTER` to start patching.
|
|
10. Be patient... 
|
|
11. After it's done, we would appreciate if you take a minute to send anonymous feedback to us. If you don't want to, close the patcher. All the files should already be on your SD Card.  
|
|
12. In Dolphin, go to `Tools` and then `Install WAD`. Install all the WAD files one by one.
|
|
13. Unzip [AnyGlobe Changer v1.0](https://github.com/fishguy6564/AnyGlobe-Changer/releases/download/1.0/AnyGlobe.Changer.zip) and run the boot.dol file. Select your region and save. This will allow the Everybody Votes Channel to work.
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately, Wii Mail doesn't work in Dolphin yet.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
You will have to launch the Everybody Votes Channel 4 times at most in order for it to start working.
