Hacking DarkWii Extended 1.0 (fixed) for 4.1E

Aurora Wright · Jul 21, 2009

I quickly adapted DarkWii Extended for 4.1, Wii settings work fine.
The "white Launch button" issue after inserting a disk or switching between a blank disk channel and another one is also fixed (the problem was caused by a RLMC tag in a chanTtl.ash brlan).
4.1E version here - 4.1U version here.
- Open NUS Downloader
- Click on "Generate Certs"
- Check the "Decrypt contents" box
- Insert 0000000100000002 in the first textbox and 449 (for NTSC/U) or 450 (for PAL) in the second one
- Click on "Start NUS Download"
- When it´s done, close it and launch patch.bat
- Copy the newly-created FSToolBox folder on the SD
- With FSToolBox navigate to title/00000001/00000002/content and press + on 0000007b.app (NTSC/U) or 0000007e.app (PAL) to overwrite the original file.
- Enjoy.

great thanks

Seems to works...this theme is the best one, I don't like all the "Matrix/XP/Jurassic/whatever"-Themes, but that one is simply nice

. Although the White Button if no Disc is inserted is ugly...

But good work, thanks

Btw: You know that this file is illegal, right?

Hmm...what did you do to convert it exactly? I'm not quite up on the theme stuff for the Wii, and I'd love to have the NTSC version of this theme on System Menu 4.1.

Aurora Wright · Jul 21, 2009

4.1U version available, it´s untested because I own a PAL Wii but it should work.
Both archives are now legal.

anyone have a pics of this theme? Ive never heard of it so I wanna see what it looks like

Linuks · Jul 21, 2009

Cool, thanks, did you fix the transparency problem with arrows ?

muzz · Jul 21, 2009

Thanks for NTSC version Davi92...unfortunately I can't test until I am home from work. Maybe someone can confirm before then?

This is really awesome, the only potential issue you might want to fix is some directory issues in the batch file. Some things might need quotes to be read properly. I had to move the download to C:\ to get it to work, so presumably there's some quotes missing somewhere.

Click to expand...

Link for pal is good

So is the one for NTSC-U.
EDIT: It worked perfectly, thanks.

WB3000 · Jul 21, 2009

I can confirm that the 4.1U app is good, it was also useful to debug NUSD's content editor.

I don't really see any of the changes you mention (white button fix). Perhaps they were left out of your NTSC build? There's also a settings button with abnormally dark text (the Back button in the Wii Settings page).

The bug was :

If you press A on the Disc Channel when there is not a disk and then use + or - to switch to an other channel, the "launch" button (I don't know th english name, could be start or something else) of this channel wil be grey.

9th_Sage · Jul 21, 2009

So what did you use to 'port' the theme to 4.1?

Did you extract the individual files and things from the app?

loopguy · Jul 21, 2009

good work, thx

nico445 · Jul 21, 2009

morgan200 · Jul 21, 2009

I copied the modified ash archives in layout/common from the 4.0 theme to the clean 4.1 app, then I unpacked the 4.1 iplsetting.ash, copied the 4.0 theme images and stylesheets and repacked. Finally, I used yaz0dec on chanTtl.ash, unpacked it, fixed the bug in the brlan using benzin, repacked the ash and used yaz0enc.
Thanks for testing the U version, I can remove the "warning" then

Linuks · Jul 22, 2009

Thanks, that's great.
Could you also fix the transparency bug ?
Arrows' borders are white

And is there a way to change the healthscreen ?
