QuadForce is a custom MIOS for the Nintendo Wii developed by Crediar that allows you to play the following Triforce Arcade games directly from an SD card or USB device:

Mario Kart Arcade GP.
Mario Kart Arcade GP 2.
F-Zero AX.
Virtua Striker 4 Ver.2006.

A setup guide can be found here.

Note: The latest builds of Nintendont support Triforce games now, so there is no need to use QuadForce anymore.

Installation

Real-NAND

Simply use any WAD installer of your choice and install the quadforce.wad.

EMU-NAND

When using SNEEK r195 or higher you can copy the quadforce.bin to:

usb:/sneek/quadforce.bin

otherwise you have to copy it to:

usb:/title/00000001/00000100/content/00000008.app (When using MIOSv10)

User guide

When starting F-Zero AX it askes you to calibrate the controls, circle the analog stick around and press A/B after that press Start.

When starting Virtua Strike 4 it askes you to calibrate the controls, circle the analog stick around and press Start.

In the case a WaveBird controller isn't working for you simply hold any button while quadforce is loading until the game shows up.

The name entry in Mario Kart GP 1 is very sensitive try pressing the A button as short as possible.

When choosing not to continue in Mario Kart GP 1&2 the game will get stuck, your savedata is not lost if you turn off even though Mario Kart GP 1 says it is still saving.
