-== Developers ==
-We don't want to discourage other people forking and working on the emulator; however, any unofficial builds must not be called "WiiSX" or "CubeSX" nor use the WiiSX or CubeSX logo in order to avoid confusion. For now, we're just releasing a snapshot of the source used to build Beta 2.1, but we're planning on updating the public repository with each commit we've made to our private repository so that everyone can see the progression of the code. This process will begin soon.
-== Current Release & Known Issues ==
-* Beta 2.1 was released on July 11th 2010, which addresses various bugs reported in the July 3rd Beta 2.0 release.
-* CDDA audio streaming is not implemented
-* .CUE is not working from DVD, select the .bin directly
-* Final Fantasy VII crashes Dynarec (after first battle)
-* There was a possible mediaplayer bug, should be to use this ePSXe v170 they looks like that a earlier ePSXe build.

-==== For SD/USB ====
-Extract the contents of wiiSX-beta2.1.zip to the root of your SD card/USB
-Put ISOs (.bin/.cue files) in the directory named /wiisx/isos (All save types will automatically be placed in /wiisx/saves)
-For actual BIOS: Name your bios files "SCPH1001.BIN" and "SCPH1002.BIN" and place them on SD/USB in the directory /wiisx/bios
-==== For DVD ====
-ISOs may be anywhere on the disc
-== Quick Usage ==
-Load the executable from the HBC or in the loader of your choice
-Once loaded, select 'Load ISO'

-{| class="wikitable"
-|-
-! {{WiimoteHorizontal}} !! {{Wiimote}} + {{Nunchuck}} !! {{GCNController}} !! {{ClassicController}} !! {{Wii}}
-|-
-| {{ClassicPlusButton}} + {{ClassicMinusButton}} || {{Wiimote1Button}} + {{Wiimote2Button}} || {{GCStartButton}} + {{GCXButton}} || {{ClassicHomeButton}} || {{WiiResetButton}}
-|}
-(Note: this must be done to save your game; it will not be done automatically)
-(Note: The ISO file itself must be on the disk. I found this out the hard way. --[[User:UNKNOWNGAM3r|UNKNOWNGAM3r]] ([[User talk:UNKNOWNGAM3r|talk]]) 05:11, 18 July 2016 (CEST))
