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: https://www.gc-forever.com/forums/viewt ... ?f=3&t=657

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… :?

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