When file size is kept, the game works alright, even though it's not from my region.

That's why I'm struggling with loaders to run NTSC version of Brawl.

Well, Wiiflow didn't work either. Exactly the same results - didn't detect my drive when used IOS224.

To make loaders work with NTFS, I needed to get a new pendrive. :/
Now I have encountered another problem. For some reason, Brawl seems to work fine when a single file (smashbros_sound.brsar) is replaced. However, when I try to replace a texture (first try - FitSonic00.pcs), Brawl runs, but the loader stops reading data from drive after a period passes (music stops, I can't turn off the console in any other way than disconnecting it from power and game freezes when I try to back to menu or go to SSS when it happens on CSS). What is the correct way to "install" costumes and stuff into an image? I heard Wii games need to have a certain file size, or else they won't work properly. How should I deal with it?

Exactly.

So, is there a way to use NTFS formatted drive in my situation?

I've been through quite many reconfigurations of my config.txt file. Here's the one I'm currently using.

I had rev 20 of that IOS. I've updated to 21, but nothing changed. After running the loader with pendrive in the slot, everything I can do is reset the Wii.

For me, the problem with FAT32 is the 4GB limit. Transfering the image takes a while. I want to load the whole ISO onto NTFS formatted drive, so I can replace files in it with WiiScrubber without moving it onto my hard drive.

Thx for relying.
Isn't WiiFlow limited to 256 lines of Ocarina codes?
Anyway, the Configurable USB loader allows user to choose IOS. When I had only Waninkoko's IOS249 in 248 slot installed, it ran NTSC SSBB fine from the FAT32 formatted drive. The problems started when I wanted to move to NTFS partition so I could put hacks quickly. If the drive has NTFS file system, loader freezes whenever I insert my pendrive into the USB slot.

I want to move from Riivolution to Configurable USB Loader because I'm a PAL user. I got the loader working with FAT32 formatted drive, but I want to use NTFS file system. However, depending on set IOS to use, reactions are different.
IOS 248 - freezes when detects the drive.
IOS 224 - does not detect the drive at all (even if it is FAT32 formatted).
I used the tutorial from this page to install the loader and IOS: http://gwht.wikidot.com/usb-loader
Is changing the drive used the only way to fix this error? Please help.
