Quite frankly it'd just be easier to link them to Modmii instead of making your own tutorials.

 

so the package is fine to host if I remove the IOS WAD files? Is it safe to give a link to a site where these (the IOS WADs) can be downloaded within my guide?

Any links to legality / what to be careful of when talking about softmodding?

 

Right I think I will scrap hosting any files as I have links to all the sources. Question now is legality with links to the sources that contain the files?


I'm not looking for fame, I just want to create a guide myself. I have tried a few exploits and would like to attempt / understand all of them mainly as a learning experience.
After creating a guide I am also including sections such as a history to exploits, how cIOS and IOS differ, how IOS /= Firmware, etc etc

 

After a bit of reading I am taking everyone's advice and using modmii combined with a few notes, screenshots and background info to make it easier.

Gives me more time to focus on my main point which is writing about how this actually works!

 

Thank you for your help. As for 'streamlining' via command line arguments, that could be useful;

I would rather avoid the option of 'game-disk' exploits and reference them in an "alternative methods / history of exploits" page.
I would like to only install [initial exploit if needed], updated IOS patches, cIOS installation. So no apps or themes until later on.

How would I go about writing a config file to meet those requirements?
Also can such a script be used later just for app downloads: e.g: no modding, just updated Launchers, forwarders, etc

 

Call ModMii.exe (or ModMiiSkin.exe or shortcuts to either) from a cmd window and enter "ModMii help" (or "ModMii anything" will work), then you'll see the following help menu

yes, by loading a preconfigured modmii download queue (i.e. "ModMii L Help")

edit:
you can see some example scripts in ModMii's support folder (Casper2BootMii.bat and d2x-beta-md5-updater.bat), but your scripts will likely be a lot less complex, probably consisting of just a few lines each if that

 

Wine, VM's.

Most people that care to hack a wii that use linux will take the time to understand the full workings of it all and can answer any and all questions themselves. The majority of users do use Windows.

And, quite frankly, anyone can go to their local library or work place and use those Windows machines to get what is needed using ModMii to mod a wii.

There is not one single person that can ever say that they don't have access to a Windows PC. If someone can honestly say that, then they must be on the international space station. And if they are on the International Space Station, then they are far more concerned about bigger things than how to mod a Nintendo Wii.

 

When you are talking about what is allowed on GBAtemp, linking to copyrighted material is illegal.

With your logic, anyone can google search and find child porn.... so is that legal bc it was found through google?

 

Answering to the first post (not the last post about porn... )

I made WiiDownloader exactly for that. (but actualy I can't find time for finish it and complete database)

Everyone can make personal guide for softmod, but using it for download homebrew, IOS and cIOS from the "correct" source.

You can made your custom script, creating new one.. or make a merge using standard script and custom script.

No need to upload more file on web, everything is just present.
