### What you need
|
|
|
|
* A computer with either Windows 10 or newer or any Unix-based system
|
|
* A Beta or Development version of [Dolphin Emulator](https://dolphin-emu.org/download/)
|
|
* [RiiConnect24 Patcher](https://github.com/RiiConnect24/RiiConnect24-Patcher/releases)

#### Instructions
|
|
|
|
##### Section I - Installing Dolphin
|
|
|
|
If you have Dolphin already installed, skip to [Section II](#section-ii---installing-riiconnect24).
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
1. Download the latest Dolphin Beta or Development version.
|
|
1. Extract the .7z file using a program like 7-Zip or WinRAR.
|
|
1. Start Dolphin.
|
|
1. 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.
|
|
1. Download `RiiConnect24Patcher.bat` if you are on Windows, and `RiiConnect24Patcher.sh` if you are on a Unix system
|
|
1. 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`.
|
|
1. Press 1 to choose "`Start`" and confirm your selection by pressing `ENTER`. (NOTE: These screenshots are from the Windows version of the patcher.)
|
|
|
|
1. For this guide, choose "`Install RiiConnect24 on your Dolphin Emulator`"
|
|
|
|
1. Choose "`Express (Recommended)`". It will give you everything you need.
|
|
|
|
1. Select your region.
|
|
|
|
1. 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.
|
|
|
|
1. Press `1` then `ENTER` to start patching.
|
|
1. Be patient...
|
|
|
|
1. 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.
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. In Dolphin, go to `Tools` and then `Install WAD`. Install all the WAD files one by one.
|
|
|
|
##### Section III - Setting your Region
|
|
|
|
Setting your region is required to use the Everybody Votes Channel.
|
|
|
|
If you have imported your Wii's NAND backup, the default Region Select will probably work.
|
|
{: .notice--info}
|
|
|
|
1. Download and unzip [AnyGlobe Changer v1.0](https://github.com/fishguy6564/AnyGlobe-Changer/releases/download/1.0/AnyGlobe.Changer.zip).
|
|
1. Drag the `boot.dol` file on to the Dolphin window.
|
|
1. Wait a few seconds, then press 1 to continue.
|
|
|
|
1. Select your region and sub-region, then select `Save`, then `Return`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
When you go back to the Everybody Votes Channel, the country & region names will appear blank. This is normal.
