Hacking * * * A List of Guides That WILL Help Newbies * * *

[georgecoat]

Except of these two guides (packages) you already mentioned:

3.1-3.4 Twilight/Downgrade/Gamma Tutorial, All in one by EmperorOfCanada
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=118446

All-In-One Launcher 3-Pack for newbies and upgradees, a wad-based, 3-step method to quick softmod by noobwarrior7
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=114...p;#entry1529161


I would suggest also these to be added:


October 23rd Wii Fix by ‘a_running_pir8’., Step-by-Step guide written by RadioShadow

How To Hack Wii Console For Dummies /Easy Installer, A to Z in Hacking Wii Console All Versions/Regions Tutorial/Installer by BIG MOE
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=119216&st=0

It would be also very useful if each tutorials in this list contains brief information like:
What launcher is it using and version.
If it works on 3.2, 3.3 or 3.4 version.
If it is only launcher or has any additional extra features/utilities/launchers/channels, what kind and what they are good for.
Compatibility information.
If it is downgrading to 3.2.
If it protects from updating.
Why this one is better than the others, advantages/disadvantages.
Additional useful information...

This tutorial list with explanation could help someone like me to decide which method to choose and why.

Could we add Looping Sound for Banners [Tutorial] to the list of guides?

 

[paulstevens]

This sticky is Great! Thanks.

BTW can the site designers make the sticky section more BOLD or somehow standout more from the regular forum section, with perhaps red flames and blinking lights or something? It seems that people are not drawn to stickies unless it is made obvious that the sticky should be mandatory reading and very helpful. Seems that noobs (myself included) are more drawn to the "active" threads and will search there first.

If people entered this site via the front door and saw the highlighted sticky section, maybe they'd go there to the sticky sections and read first before posting.

But if they enter the site as a result of a google search, well, who knows what they will do.

Just some thoughts from a concerned noob who is very grateful for this site and all the contributors.

Could you add my Rock Band Backups Guide?

 

[ether2802]

Could you add my Rock Band Backups Guide?

NOPE.....unless you find how to play the first RB's with the Les Paul controller

 

[bozzer123]

can someone make a guide or link to a guide about changing the banner on a wii disc

Thanks

 

[ether2802]

Heeey..!! that is something that only TT has been able to make, maybe you could check at their .iso HBC installer and figure it out on how to create a banner, that is really a great idea, but you would need to be on 3.2 or earlier because of the trucha sign..!!

I'll get to it eventually

Rock Band 2 customs a my main goal, I'm about 80% done them.

 

[ashesburn]

Thanks for spending time consolidating all these wonderful guides!

Just hope noobs will actually bother reading through and trying to solve their problems first before posting.

 

[SFenton]

I'm going to make a request for the addition of the RiskiiMod tutorial. While the process is still somewhat controversial, it's the best tutorial out there.

 

[happyxd]

the guide "Wii Softmodding for Dummies v2.2.2" was removed by a mod.

 

[Quincy]

Here's an idea,credit the makers of the guide,and for the Unbricking guides,one is Banner-Brick and the other is Semi-Brick

 

[Hadrian]

Here's an idea,credit the makers of the guide

Why bother? The people will see who has written the guide when people click on them.

Could you please unsticky the gamma noncompatibility list? It's totally outdated and this would clean up the formum a little(in my exes).

And could you please add my 2 guides to the 1st post in this thread?

http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=123...p;#entry1639626
maybe with changed headline to "Gamma+SoftChip compatibility guide"

http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=125909
maybe with changed headline to "How to fix black&white, red&black or falling screen issues with import games"

Thank you
