I'm attempting to create banners and icons for wii games from the opening.bnr files - but the image quality isn't as good as some I've seen here - how do you get such high quality images?


Also, I found another incorrectly labeled game:

https://github.com/cucholix/wiivc-bis/tree/master/wii/image/R84E99

should be:

http://www.gametdb.com/Wii/R84EE9

s/99/E9/
Fixed, thanks for reporting

I had the same problem with low quality image, it must be your graphic card or something, I can't screen grab decent Wii Banner Player pics from this PC either

List of popular Wii games that still need banners:

- Dragon Quest Swords - The Masked Queen and The Tower of Mirrors [RDQEGD]
- Harvest Moon - Magical Melody [RHMEE9]
- Harvest Moon - Tree of Tranquility [R84EE9]
- Mario Strikers Charged [R4QE01]
- Mario Super Sluggers [RMBE01]
- Pikmin [R9IE01]
- Sonic & SEGA All-Stars Racing [R3RE8P]
- Sonic and the Black Knight [RENE8P]
- Sonic Riders - Zero Gravity [RS9E8P]
- Xenoblade Chronicles [SX4E01]

Thanks to @simbin for a few that I requested and that were recently added to the repo! as well as the above that was fixed: Harvest Moon - Tree of Tranquility [R84EE9]

For most of the rest in my list, I created myself using official opening.bnr:

Dragon Quest Swords - The Masked Queen and The Tower of Mirrors [RDQEGD]

Can I request a few NDS title banners (bootTvtTex.png and icontex.png) ? I wanted to do this myself, but I've got too much going on in my life right now? :(

-Picross DS
-Professor Layton and the curious village
-Professor Layton and the unwound future
-9 hour, 9 persons, 9 doors
-planet puzzle league
-the world ends with you
-meteos
-42 all time classics
-ghost trick: phantom detective

Thanks in advance. :)

EDIT: due to overwhelming reaction, I'll attempt to make them myself...at some point between now and a gazillion years. :P

I made some icons for Newer SMBW (SMNE03) based on my old banner since I'm too lazy to switch to another banner.

Thank you! I’m kinda new to injecting so I didn’t even know about jnustool but I will get it now. Thanks for the help. Hopefully soon I’ll be able to do everything myself without asking for help.

Can someone please make banner and icon for Kirby Super Star for SNES?

this thread is for banners not made by nintendo , not ones that have been done officially you nned to google this :

BullyWiiPlaza JNUSTool Tutorial youtube

it is an easy way to just get the meta folder of games so you can get the pictures you request.

(jnustool requires Wii U common key so you'll have to search online - hint: it begins with D7B0. Open the "config" file in notepad and paste the key inside, replacing [COMMONKEY] and get the games title keys from that title key site)

use jnustool or use wiiuhelper to get the game, morally it isnt any different than downloading the rom to inject and since your using the script to get the files it uses jnustool to get the files to inject the rom , so theres no moral high ground here.

you wont get nice clean pictures to use like the official ones anyway
there is shading missing or something from these homemade banners, no one even tries to do this shade:

it took me so much longer to get this texted out than it did to get both official banners

shift right click the empty space in the folder of jnustool
O7Azv36KRluPRfB3MVTkqg.png

type in or right click paste in
java -jar JNUSTool.jar TITLEID TITLEKEY
dgxZAsmYT8G54JNbFZO5Nw.png

remember to add the " java -jar JNUSTool.jar " gets pasted into the cmd window and the "TITLEID TITLEKEY" need to be of the game you want and pasted in from "that keysite"

and then select the pics in tga format (or the whole game ... nothing is encrypted... hummm unless maybe you didnt follow the directions to add the common key in the config file)
