digitydogs said:As for avoiding a brick the risk is identical to gamma as both require the use of wads. ARC has been tested over 18000 times without issue. and preloader is step two, also tested over 18,000 times without issue (the 18,000 times figure is because softmii has been installed over that many times already). so uhm yeah brick risk non existent unless you do something stupid like that guy, who should have known better as its been said 1000 times NEVER delete any IOS, always overwrite. Human stupidity can fuck up a backup loader install as easy as anything else. Just because you prefer gamma doesn't mean you should encourage others not to use other things.
You are making a big deal over nothing D-Jay. Of coarse there are risks but people just have to be smart about it.D-Jay said:digitydogs said:As for avoiding a brick the risk is identical to gamma as both require the use of wads.

Sorry, but you're writing absolutely unobjective.
Do you really want to tell me, that Backup Launcher and "SoftMii" have the same risk to handle with?
Both: Installation and uinstallation??
exactly. maybe i should have stated it this way:QUOTE said:You are making a big deal over nothing D-Jay. Of coarse there are risks but people just have to be smart about it.
You're right! And because of that, some people don't like the way, SoftMii goes...moosh01 said:You are making a big deal over nothing D-Jay. Of coarse there are risks but people just have to be smart about it.
No, I don't.
QUOTE(Vague Rant @ Feb 3 2009, 08:41 AM) D-Jay's point isn't "There are risks," it's "digitydogs is making SoftMii sound equally as safe as Backup Launcher," which is an entirely valid point.
