For testing purposes along developpement, you'd better run dols and isos off sd cards, in any adapter.
I'm not quite aware of ISO building, maybe gcrebuiler can do it.

Update: so anyways I just downloaded the software on my computer, and it gives me a error whenever I select a folder with a .dol file in it. This error says, Folder &&systemdata not found. IDK what this means so can you help me please. Also, if I don't get this fixed I think I am going to try another software to create GCN ISO's!

If you must burn it on a disc, use something like this:

What is it that it requires to be an ISO and why can't you just load it as a DOL in Swiss from a disc or other device?

Probably nothing special, as testing can be done with Dolphin…
PF2004> If you want to validate your program working, test it on the real deal first!

IDK what is your worflow, but it's about skipping some steps to want to burn an ISO just after testing it under Dolphin.
