Hacking Crap, easy to use channel creator

TyRaNtM · Jan 17, 2010

The 480p problem is gone, but, im having problems with loading games.
Using USB Loader 1.6 or CFG Forwarder (no intro), when you load a games, you got a black screen.
Maybe that nand forwarder needs a little fix?
EDIT: Confirmed, the issue is with the nand loader. Using the normal one (with the 480p issue), at least i can load a channel wihout black screen of death.

About packing the loader into Crap's package... well, that's WiiCrazy's job... just remember:
- Triiforce mod v2.2 = for cIOS 249 rev15 and previous cIOS versions.
- Triiforce mod v2.3 = for cIOS 199 (rev14) with any revision of cIOS249.

So, if WiiCrazy makes a new Crap's package, then there must be both files (v2.2 and v2.3)

Thanks

! ... BUT the newest cIOS38 rev17 has fixed the Triiforce's incompatibility issues, so there's no problem to use Triiforce mod v2.2 forwarder under the new cIOS249 from now on.

See ya!

Well in my first few tests it worked flawlessly then like you described it started to fail... I'll inspect the issue...

Well well well... I added not knowing if it would be of any use

Anyway it's not a problem, I'll remove it in the next release.

Can someone give me a tip?

I created for Wii sports a wad with the GXforwarder (which didn't work for me in Crap 2.6) and tested it. It worked. Great. Deleted all the other WAD's from the Wii and created with Crap 2.7 all wad's agein but this time with the gxforwarder now none of them works.

I'm no Wii noob and did this many times but the screen always stays black. So what Can i do ?

One time a had a xml error (i forgot to write it down -.- so i can't tell what exactly was displayed)

Aaaaaaaaaaand, for the (first) WiiSport.WAD ai Changed the Wad ID. But this can't be the reason why it's working/not working, is it?

WiiCrazy · Jan 17, 2010

@M tha Man : Did you change your GX version in between? Which rev of GX are you using so that I can test it too...

About the xml error, it could be related to multilanguage feature of the program. In which language are you using and how can I reproduce the same error?

fudgi · Jan 18, 2010

I like this tool alot, though i got a stupid question...

whats the difference between oldstyle, newstyle and anti 002? sorry ^^

Dialexio · Jan 18, 2010

I believe this was how it worked.

The old 002 fix was a main.dol patch. It is applied by cIOS rev08-12 and rev13b. The old 002 fix doesn't work for "002b" games.
The new 002 fix properly patches the error in memory. It works for all games that contain Error #002, including "002b" games.
The anti 002 fix undoes the old 002 fix and applies the new 002 fix.

Yeah, forgot to tell this. But i don't know which rev i was using when it worked (i think it was 849 or 86x). When i saw it worked downloaded via USB-Loader GX the rev874 which didn't work for me. I also enabled "beta-revision" but it still doesn't work with 895 =(

Edit:

@ Wiicrazy

It must have been the fault of USB-Loader GX. Downloaded today the Rev 898 and now it works like a charm again =) thx for this great app =)

TyRaNtM · Jan 20, 2010

WiiCrazy, when you have another solution for the 480p issue, post here i will test it soon.

WiiCrazy · Jan 20, 2010

Hmm, strange... on 480p it was not working with the new nand loader now I took the wii next to my commodore 1084s monitor and it works...

Yeah, that Nand Loader is a little buggier.
I think that only needs some tweaks for works 100%.

XFlak · Jan 24, 2010

anyone know if there is an extra parameter for the configurable loader (no intro) that auto loads using an alt dol?

Activate1 · Jan 24, 2010

I am Also new to this prograam.

I want to use it with the Neogamma R8 rc1.

I have some difficult games :New mario, Tigerwoods that won't start from a channel that I made with WBFS manager 3.0, I am getting the error 002 code, I can play them from the HD.

I want to use Crap now to do this but I find it a little difficult to use.

I have 30 games on my HD in my pc, in different maps, How I do this for all at the same time?

I have tried it with the WBFS files on my WII disk but win7 can find any files.

What must I do with banner?
Wich loader I must use?
Wich fix I must set?
Wich Wad name?
What must I choose by Channel??

Will this program automaticly ad the covers?

Thanks and greetings,

Erik.

You can't use it along with Neogamma... There is no notion of using this with every usb loader out there. This app is a channel creator that employs the actual banner of the game for those who don't want to mess with a loader for certain games... you know for the kids...

However, there is support to create forwarders for usb loader gx & cfg. usb loader which are able to boot games directly given a certain parameter at start... Neogamma is not one of them. Dunno if it supports the same style of loading games.

You can use 1.5 or 1.6 loader or one of the forwarders for the 002 fix needing games. (Cfg or GX)
In 1.5 & 1.6 loader just check the 002 fix option under fixes. For the forwarders you need to do this configuration in the game settings of the respective loader. Or for Cfg.Usb.Loader you can pass it as a parameter... refer to the documentation of Cfg. Usb Loader

Currently batch channel creation is possible only through banners. Sorry you need to create channels for these 30 games on your harddrive one by one... If they are isos just use the iso selection and leave the other banner source selections as they are.... Good thing is, Crap will store every banner it encounters in the Banners folder, you can then reuse those banners in the future... no need to locate the game iso or such...

It's just an option to select the banner source. Remember, Crap creates channels for the games with the actual banner of the said games. So the main material it uses are banners. Hence banner selection in Crap is a method to select... yes the banner.... The other choices are ISO, WBFS file, WBFS Drive... You only select one among these...

QUOTE said:

Wich fix I must set?

Program has test option, just try and find the right loader that suits you...
You can set 002 fix regardless of game needs it or not... If you are using cios >=rev14 you don't need to mess with the other options.

QUOTEWich Wad name?

What must I choose by Channel??

Click to expand...

Doesn't matter. It just happens that the created wad ends up in the Wad folder with the naming option you selected.
Channel option is for wiiware&vc you don't need it.

This question suggest that everything I said above is useless to you, anyway.... Crap has nothing to do with game covers.

nice tool - works well

Except for ONE iso
Opening my MarioKartWii ISO, crap tells me that this is no banner (he cant load that).
But the iso working fine, playing for moths now.

Then i tried to extract the opening.bnr and specified only this banner.
Ok, i can set the TitleID... but the DiscID defaults to "pening".
Is that DiscID mandatory?! I guess yes, because that will be the parameter to the loader?! (useing gx forwarder)
Can you change this to editable?!
(Didn't have the heart to install this wad

)

An one small thing:
Wad renaming syntax wrong

choose {GameName} - {discId} - {titleId}
but renamed it gets {GameName} - {titleId} - {discId}

WiiCrazy · Jan 24, 2010

@myron0815 : yep Crap has a problem of detecting the disc id wrong with mario kart... you should name the banner so that it ends with the disc id. Then you can use it.

About the wad naming syntax : I'll fix it.

Activate1 · Jan 24, 2010

Thanks for the explanation WIIcrazy.

I was supposed to use it for channelcreation just like WBFS does, and yes for the kids.

I thought that I can use it also for the error002 code, but it seems I can't

I have CIOS15 installed so that must be no problem then

I can not use the test option because I have the WII not in a network.

Is there any software I can use to create the channels and fix the error problem?

Thanks and greetings,

Erik.

WiiCrazy · Jan 24, 2010

@Activate1 : You got me wrong, Crap loaders support 002 fix... So you can create channels for those games that error out with 002...

Activate1 · Jan 24, 2010

Thanks again!!!

So the for the banner file I can not use *.png file?

And loader I must use the 1.6?

The others unchecked, accept new 002 fix?

Thanks and greetings,

Erik.
