    Hacking strange power problem after hacking my wii

    That still leaves the question then of why do the hacks prevent the Wii from proper standby and is there any other potential problems from this (not from WC24 in general but related to the video not turning off)? I would like to see some actual results for the supposed overheating problem...

    Hacking strange power problem after hacking my wii

    Figures. My fan doesn't work very well anyway so it really doesn't matter (bought the system used, the fan doesn't work well and it's a bit slow but the NAND is in near perfect health (I think I had one dead block)). If I start to see problems then I'll disable it but other than these forums...

    Hacking strange power problem after hacking my wii

    How does the Wii overheat using WC24? Does it not activate the fan or something? Considering my Wii is almost always on (my second youngest brothers beaten Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn about 20 times in the last 2 months) I don't see how WC24 is any worse unless Nintendo did something really...

    Hacking strange power problem after hacking my wii

    It has the Orange light and from I've seen it still functions as WC24 normally would it's just the Video output remains on a black screen rather than turning off. I'm thinking this is because WC24 normally updates the Wii from standby (and yes the manual/warnings do say it will update the wii...

    Hacking strange power problem after hacking my wii

    Animal Crossing need's WC24 for various features; Metroid Prime 3 needs it for Vouchers; The Mii channel which my siblings use more than I do uses it for Mii's to travel; News Channel, Forecast Channel, Nintendo Channel, and Wii Shop Channel keep their databases up to date when it's on so I can...

    Hacking strange power problem after hacking my wii

    I know WC24 is a standby mode but it usually turns off the screen. Now that I'm thinking about it the reason the screen doesn't turn off is probably because WC24's being prevented from updating the Wii. That brings up the question though of do the hacks affect anything else? Will WC24 still...

    Hacking strange power problem after hacking my wii

    Read the old post... If you turn it on then the Wii doesn't power down correctly and there's a black screen when there should be nothing (my TV's default blue screen). I don't have the exact hacks he does but I did follow the Hackmii Guide just to get some backup on my Wii (since it sounds...

    Hacking strange power problem after hacking my wii

    I know this is an old post but I was wondering if there's a way to keep Wii Connect 24 on. I have a few games that really could use it (Metroid Prime 3 if using friend vouchers and Animal Crossing). There's certain features that just don't work without WC24.

    Hacking ACCF questions

    I was thinking if SD cards were completely managed by the IOS and the game just made a call to something within it then I could use an identical but updated IOS (I know many IOS's are just copies of each other and I heard of a similar procedure being used to make the Disc light light up when you...

    Hacking ACCF questions

    I realize some of this might be answered elsewhere but I've not seen it so I'll ask here. I recently got Animal Crossing City Folk for the Wii (this one I've yet to hack and it does read disk unlike my old Wii which I still need a new EHDD to get running) and I've got a couple questions: 1.)...

    Hacking SneekyCompiler

    Back to my issue with getting Uneek up and running. I've confirmed that putting the title files back onto my NAND at least didn't screw anything up though I'm not yet sure if the saves are intact. As I believe I said in an earlier post my Mii data was too badly corrupted (in fact when I put it...

    Hacking SneekyCompiler

    I just thought of something for SneekyCompiler. If there's nothing preventing you from using AutoIt you (or even I) could compile a script to automate the click job for SneekInstaller. If you like the idea I can make the script in no time flat. Also an observation. It looks like if compiling...

    Hacking SneekyCompiler

    I have Vis Studio 2010 but I'm not yet very familiar with C++ so I've only used it here and there and not tried any of the features. I know it has some auto GUI code tools that are supposed to make really nice looking GUI's via a Wizard of some sort. Again not messed with it much. A little...

    Hacking SneekyCompiler

    I got it to work the third time, I'm thinking either my firewall was blocking it or I accidentally added to the command line when it popped up. I figured the latter might be happening before which is why I suggested the silent running thing (though I'd still expect the dialog boxes to come up)...

    Hacking SneekyCompiler

    I'm still not up and running again with Uneek but I finally got home internet so I'll be able to devote more time to it. A few notes on Sneeky Compiler: I can't seem to compile 154 It would be great if you could make it run silently in the background (the command prompts I mean). I've found it...
