You don't understand me, it's not about Nitrotux, it's about the fact that we don't have access to the entire knowledge about the wii. Just some elite people choose to release or not information.
The question is where is the real author? For what reason he's stilling hidden? and for what reason YOU Teq care about that? I think the real author is an adult who can protect his work himself if he want to. And i think he can easily proven that it's his work when he comes in this kind of forum to explain to everyone how he make this!
If he doesn't do that, so i'm keep thinking that Nitrotux provide us a great tool which can be use for a lot of useful homebrew.
once for all, there is no "scene conspiracy" or great minds hidding informations to you, all the informations are
available to anyone not too lazy to read them... the
IOS is written in ARM asm, so I guessanybody could modify the code and repack it .
don't you understand that usually, SERIOUS people do a LOT of betatesting before releasing stuff that might harm your console and let you be able to use it ? do you believe that this guy have the knowledge of testing the modified IOS (if he is even the one who patched it) ? I don't...
do you realize that IOS patching is something known and already done for some time by the wii hackers but is still considered TOO DANGEROUS to be publically spreaded into a simple WAD file ? Bushing has
stated many time that we first need a way of brick recovering before going into this crap.
you can always come here and claim that this is peanuts and that the most important is the final result (i.e what YOU can do), but at least, understand that people feel concerned about this lame way of releasing poorly tested and potentially dangerous tools, only to enter the "wii hacker" hall of fame or to be the first of releasing a long awaited application, without even thinking about possible side effects!
PS:
there is this function call at initialization
QUOTEIOS_ReloadIOS(5);
