Hello everybody! :D
I've been on these forums for almost a decade but I've never had an account, so, I thought it was time to change that!
I'm really big into modding, specifically Wii U VC injections (using stuff like Injectiine), and texture modding.
The thing I'm most proud of is taking older promotional shots from stuff like GC manuals and upscaling them so they look like legitimate splash screens for games.
I have tons of these splash screens just lying around, so if you're interested in them lmk and I'll get back to you as soon as you can!
I look forward to contributing to the forum, and I hope everybody reading this has a lovely day :) <3

You could upload the files in the art forum... I think?

I believe it kind of breaks the "Do not upload or share copyrighted material" general rule, but I'm not sure though 🤔

Thanks for the heads up, not trying to step on any toes when it comes to copywritten material. I'll get in touch with the system's admins before I start any threads like that :)

I'm interested in seeing your work. ^_^
Thanks for your interest!

Honestly the stuff I'm best at is building off of existing mods, which includes a lot of my own custom hacks for games I love like FF7. For FF7 I modified the text and UI to be more slick and aesthetically pleasing (imo atleast haha):

I'm also in the process of retexturing God of War II atm, something I've been wanting to do for almost half a decade now. A prolific modder on here, @Panda_Venom, went and made my dreams come true with his upscale mod, so now I'm obsessed with retexturing the entire thing haha. I only have some textures in progress, hopefully the game will look like a low-grade PS3 game without normal maps by the end:

I'm also looking into unpacking the game's encrypted .PAK, upscaling the FMV's, and then repacking the game so it has seamless 4K cutscenes. That's becoming a bit of headache, however. Dedicated GOW modding tools are hard to come by :'(

I've also been making full blown Wii-U VC injections for about 5 years now, complete with icons and splashes with sounds and etc. I'd like to share them soon, but I need to get permission first when I can haha

    @SylverReZ, atleast wiimmfii went fine although people only use it for Mario kart Wii
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    At least if they ban you for cheating, get another Wii. They're cheap as chips.

    Remember when RiiShop was a thing?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    not really
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It got shutdown because somebody "accidentally" leaked the database for the amount of people using the beta.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    RiiShop is the laziest way of downloading Wii games. Did somebody not think of this through?
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    although i ended up accidentally changing my nand with no way of going back bc i didn't know you needed a gamecube controller to restore it (i have a wii minus/1.1, which doesn't have gamecube controller support)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, I think you're talking about the recovery mode that the SaveMii used, and also was to restore softbricked systems.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    If your NAND was hardbricked, then just buy another Wii. Or go with the dirty NAND flasher method.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    and if i find the sd card i have my NAND backed up on, i can not only restore the NAND if i solder the right part in, but i can also put my NAND on dolphin, then i can play dolphin online, like PMEX Remix or MKWii Riibalanced
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Brb
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @BakerMan, Oh yeah, that was a thing too. Dolphin does support Wiimmfi.
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    yeah you just need to put your NAND backup with wiimmfi on it
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    ngl i feel like if a bunch of my friends have wiis and know how to get wiimmfi and back up their NAND, then we could do a PMEX Remix tournament
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    maybe even add UMVC3/DBFZ and make it a biathlon/triathlon
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Too bad Excite Truck wasn't multi player :(
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Loved that game lol
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, sorry for the stupid suggestion I had in that thread
