== Usage with Homebrew App ==
The external files used for the homebrew app must be stored within '''sd.raw''' and the homebrew app itself (''boot.elf'' or ''boot.dol'') must exist outside of it for Dolphin to load. Project M, for example, will load from SD root ''\projectm\'' and Dolphin will need to launch Project M through ''\homebrew\apps\projectm\boot.elf'', '''NOT''' in the virtual SD card. It is very ideal to have same copies paralleled between inside and outside of the virtual SD card, so you will have nothing to lose.

The homebrew app that was programmed to hack the Wii game will only work if a particular Wii game is set as the default ISO. Within the Dolphin game list, open context menu (right-click) on any Wii game and click '''Set as default ISO'''. Do this before loading a homebrew app with Dolphin.

Netplay will eventually desync if anything reads the virtual SD card that is not cloned, regardless of the same size it was created, and identical file/folder structures within its root. To prevent that, '''sd.raw''' must be copied to another computer before starting netplay.
