I'm aware. Unfortunately it's not a simple move. Code itself needs to be updated to reference the new location of stuff, including other projects ModMii downloads from Google code like wiixplorer for example. I'm not sure where all the other projects are moving to so I might upload them to filetrip. I got plenty of time to do this but I'm procrastinating cuz I know it's going to be a pain in the ass

Currently trying to use ModMii 6.3.1, but it can't seem to download any files. It says "Some Downloads are Invalid, Missing, or were Not Updated properly", and when I hit "Next", the same thing happens again. Any idea why?

Are you using a 2GB or less SD card, support for SDHC cards higher than 2GB wasn't added until the system menu version 4.0.

never mind what I posted above, if you see the scam warning then you probably have the right SD card. What exploit are you trying to use? If banner bomb then you might need to update first, I never could get banner bomb to work with my 3.2 Wii.

I'm using modmii, so, as far as I understand - I'm using bannerbomb. Do you mean, that I must connect my Wii to internet and update using official nintendo update?

Problem solved: I have replaced boot.elf in the root of SD to boot.elf from hackmii_installer_v1.0 (elder version).
Thank you!

you should read the post.. i know its long but still. "updated" info is usually at the top or bottom of a post
in the end of his post you can read this:
Edit:
The ModMii website at modmii.zzl.org keeps going offline, it's actually down more often than it's not. So I've mirrored the website at another address.

The new website can be found at www.tinyurl.com/modmiiwebpage2
(or www.modmii.comuf.com)

need help here.

I want to softmod my Wii which is ver 4.3E (not modified, virgin).
So I went to process for modmii for new installation and transfer the files on my SD card (8gb SDHC Kingston)

And then I went ahead as usual on mail icon and find and open that exploit, as soon as I click it, the screen went black then after a second it returns to Wii's Home/Dashboard, I was expecting to be greeted for HBC installation but this time I get nothing.

I did retransfer all the files just to be sure, alas same thing happens,

here's the installation logs the modmii generated

EDIT:

nevermind found the issue, thanks god letterbomb throws some error messages than wilbrand
it was my SDHC card acting weird or actually wilbrand doesnt recognize cards larger than 2gb, work around is partition my 8gb card lower than 2GB (make it 1.6gb in my case) and hell everything works.

source: http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?24,72888,72897 @dancinninja reply.
Do you have any other files on there? I had a problem with big cards due to the fact that the data was located "above" the limit. What I did was delete everything, and the very first thing I move back over was homebrew stuff. This put it in the "lower" addresses of the card, and it read it just fine. Crazy, huh?

ModMii v6.3.6!

Just put out another ModMii update, check out the changelog on the modmii webpage.

I've changed the autoupdate code so often, but what's pretty cool is I started at 4.0 and updated 5 times but eventually made it to the current version 6.3.6. You could have a super old version of ModMii, back when it was known as NUS Auto Downloader, like from 3 or 4 years ago and still properly update to the latest version, lol.

I start at, 4.0, then....
4.6.1
5.5.2
6.3.1
6.3.4
6.3.6 = Current!


6.3.6 Changelog:
  • Housekeeping to migrate ModMii to sourceforge from googlecode before it shuts down. Multiple updates were required to retain continuous updates of old versions, one to update the existing auto update code on googlecode, and another update from sourceforge.
  • Changed website from modmii.zzl.org to modmii.comuf.com. Didn't change the name in the website graphic because missing artwork, but mostly just cuz... lazy.
  • Updated links for various other apps from googlecode to their new homes.
  • Converted autoupdating download links to static ones for various inactive projects.
  • CFG USB Loader switched to CFG USB Loader Mod.
  • Probably some other stuff I can't remember.
  • Added flux capacitor because this is old as shit!
  • Check out my new projects! ~xflak40

Jesus really? There are no ads in ModMii or either of the webpages and there are even direct links to both webpages in the first post of this thread. What I choose to put in my signature is my own damn business. The ads in my signature are harmless (I click on them myself from time to time), and you know what, I haven't changed my signature in years, this isn't something new (and if you got a problem with linkbucks I wrote another app to block sites like that called hostsupdater).

Way back when ModMIi was new, there were ads and wait times in the app itself, all that shit got removed. I used to make "a quick buck off ads", not anymore.

I updated my post with the changelog; as always, if you don't want to use ModMii, no one is putting a gun to your head, and if you do want to use ModMii, there are direct links as well as ad driven links. If you want to throw me 1/10th of a penny, use the ad driven links, and if you don't, then don't. And if you want to be a dick, just keep insulting the author of an app in his own thread.

You think it was easy resurrecting this project? You're fucking welcome.

Try clicking on your signature now dude. Please. It drives the A/V insane with the popups and some of the ads displayed are not even skippable (At least not for me since I'm using ADB+)
it's not his fault... he choose to use link bucks or adfly service, the displayed ads are the responsabilty of the service provider (or by the advertisers themselves in case linkbucks\adfly write it on TOS)
but what i mean is. has no control on what advertisement or it's contents that get to you... when clicking his link, you may got one type of advertisement, while me and other folks got other types..

either way he does something that most of folks don't which is provide alternative direct links...
i had seen lots of mods on minecraft forums with no alternative to download the mod without clicking a linkbuck\adfly link, only to find the mod was worthless and full of bugs
