Hello! I just updated to 1.0.2 after launching from the forwarder. After updating, WiiMC went back to the system menu, and when I fired it up again, it told me to download some fonts.

I told it to go ahead and take care of the download, and it crashed with a DSI exception. I tried again, same thing.
So I tried to launch it through HBC, and no dice, it still crashed when I was trying to start it.

But I found a way around and got it to work if anyone else is having trouble.

I remember seeing in the settings once that my language was stuck on ‘Japanese’ with 1.0.1. It didn’t make any difference, it was still in English. I’m guessing it needed the Japanese characters. Anyways, I just opened settings.xml from the sd:/apps/wiimc folder and changed the line

to

And now its starting just fine.

I didn’t know if anyone else was having the problem, I just figured if anyone else had the same thing going wrong, this is a way to get around the DSI exception.

That’s all, rock on.
