Mrkinator said:Eh. I suppose this is cool for some. I'd still much prefer to have custom made DLC as I dislike much of the official DLC. Making a dozen or so GH3 discs great and all, but it wouldn't compare to having all that music on one SD card with one disc.icefireicefire said:...and that is why piracy fails...
Agreed
They'll figure it out eventually without these stupid guessing games >_>
ppc_gba said:To everyone who is oowing and awing about the possibility of a magic unlock of a few kilobytes which allow the download of all DLC, don't forget: they might still be able to lock you out from downloading anything for free from their store.
It could be that OneUp (or whoever developed this) realized this- and so released wads of all the dlc in addition to an enabler (the title wad?).
I think it used to be possible to download any channel you had a ticket for from the wii shop channel, and look they blocked the hackers there too. Although it will be harder for Activision to fight back, assuming they don't have some kind of online update system which stores and updated dol in a channel or somewhere.
MrKinator (or whoever developed/used similar tools for RB1/2) may have exposed themselves more to activision by downloading songs they never purchased (assuming they tested it to see if it worked, for research only of course lol!). Instead of many pirates using their tools to nab songs they didn't pay for, only a select few IPs would be seen downloading these files without a record of payment.
Of course this is assuming they're monitoring this sort of thing, which they may start doing eventually. It'd be interesting to see if it actually affects sales at all in the end.
If it really is as easy as people say, we may soon see a RB1/2 DLC enabler and DLC. Hopefully this won't negatively affect paid users who could lose the ability to redownload tracks to a new/formatted wii.
True. Thank you for also saying a correct statement without flaming/causing flamebait.

Activision has nothing to do with it, they don't control access to the content. Nintendo stopped the shop channel from downloading pirated content by upgrading the shop and requiring the new version to be used. They can't/won't do that for a game.ppc_gba said:I think it used to be possible to download any channel you had a ticket for from the wii shop channel, and look they blocked the hackers there too.

monkey04 said:I have cios rev 13b installed
using original disk
I install song wad and titles that goes well. the installation finishes and then it says OneUp
so i go into guitar hero, options, archive
but the songs never show up, I know they're in my wii because i go from 205 blocks to 19 after i install but they aren't showing up.
I installed using ios 249, 250, 38 but they still don't show up
I've also been using GHWT_Title_Files_PAL_REV1.wad, should i use GHWT_Title_Files_PAL_REV2.wad
grentuu said:The arguments for and against suprise me....
Bottom line is the songs belong to someone else. You take em for free thats illegal.
Yesterday morning I had 3 GH games, 2 RB games all originals and 27 tracks for GHWT bought through DLC.
This morning I have 3 more tracks as that was all I considered any good. I am quite happy to pay for them (one of them isn't out yet lol)
Why do I do it...because I can and to see if I can get it to work. There was a thread some where about "do you spend more time modding than playing"
Thats me. Just love the challenge of getting something to work. I love the fact that all my original games are in a folder in a set of drawers and will stay there now as the USB drive has them all stored.
I am employed on a good wage and would hate to have someone steal my product. Imagine getting up tomorrow and finding your car had been taken.....
But thats just me. I don't have a downer on what you do. Thats your right to choose.
But please quit arguing an unwinnable argument. If it isn't yours and you take it thats theft. If its open source its free. If its copyrighted it ain't
Are you installing the song and then afterwards installing the correct TITLE wad? I had the same problem when I didn't install the GHWT_Title_Files_PAL_REV1.wad file after installing 1979.Timmy5000 said:I need some help here please, I did Everything I could but I am have the most blizzar problem, I only tired 2 songs, but they both show up on the dlc list, as Hot blooded. any suggestions to this?
bazamuffin said:I am chuffed as mintballs that you are on a good wage and CAN afford to buy these games original. But what about those that aren't on a good wage and can't afford to buy their games original? Is it fair that they should miss out? I'm sure that alot of users out there will buy games retail when they can afford it. Are you single by any chance with no kids?

Nope am married with 4 kids, a shitfull of bills, a mortgage, but heres a question for you.
When you are out next I will come round to your house and take your wii. Its fair game because I can't afford one and you have one. Are you o.k. with that?
Where does it end...erm I can't afford to buy a car and that bastard up the road has a fantastic Camaro........
BTW, if you have am attorney that gets your argument placed as statute please send me his/her number...
Finally I did say that what you choose to do is down to you and I am not "down" on you for doing it. Just was trying to explain that you cannot argue that taking stuff that wasn't yours was legal...it isn't.
Surprised if you read that that you replied.

Also what is the difference between cIOS rev 13a and rev 13b?
Will b also work because that is what I have installed and none of the songs show up in the game.
I have 4.0u and an NTSC game and Console. I am using the original game.
