Hacking CustomizeMii 2.0

[Leathl]

Since I'm not at home over christmas, I felt like releasing this before.
Note that the base WAD downloading will not work because wadder.net is down.
I will soon release a fixed version with (again) working base WAD downloading.

CustomizeMii is a custom channel creator for the Wii.
The .NET Framework 2.0 is required to run this application!

There is also a mono version which runs under Linux / Mac OS X (Requires the mono framework!)

For any further information, see: http://customizemii.googlecode.com
Please use the Issue Tracker there to report any occuring bugs.

Thanks to icefire / Xuzz for the basic idea of this Application!

[XFlak]

awesome work! I've downloaded it now but I wont be able to test it out for awhile, but still, thanks for the frequent updates!

 

[AetherMaster]

Leathl, looks good! At least you're continuing it while WADder is down

 

[bula]

Thanks. Nice one.

 

[beav1s]

great job Leathl, your work is much appreciated

 

[pepxl]

excellent job leathl, time to repack my wads with BNS, smaller, smaller smaller lol

 

[stev418]

Brilliant, first implementation of BNS conversion that works for me, nice work. Is the conversion based on magazigs bns conversion source? i could never get that source to make working .bns files for me.

All my homebrew channels are now repacked with a nice block saving, thanks

 

[Leathl]

Yes, it's based on megazigs source with some little improvements by me.

What improvements, also, I'm not certain about this bit, but doesn't the GPL enforce the license on it's deriative works, meaning, you can't change the license?

 

[ganons]

With this can one get wiiflow channel and replace dol with openwiiflow dol?

Hey Leathl,
If you give me developer access, I can add installation feature into your app (port from Crap of course)

I'm having an issue with the complex forwarder. I've got devkitpro and the libogc from the customizemii page installed, however, when I try to compile a complex forwarder I get an error message: "an error occurred during compiling."

Anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions?
