Does anyone have working download links for this?

I just went digging through my old files and I found v2.1 of BLIND. I don't remember if v2.1 was ever officially released or if maybe Joostin shared it with just me, but since it's all I found and I want to preserve this, I've uploaded here:
https://www.mediafire.com/file/5z438288vxy6qhe/blind2.1_boot.dol/file

As I'm not 100% sure if this made it to an official release, please be careful, maybe assume it's a beta until ppl are able to confirm whether or not it's stable (if I had to guess maybe it added motion+ controller support or something)

still, if anyone has a working copy of BLIND 2.0 which was definitely an official release please share, in fact ideally we can recover working links for all the following:
B.L.I.N.D. v2.0
BLIND Autoboot Disc JAP
BLIND Autoboot Disc KOR
BLIND Autoboot Disc PAL
BLIND Autoboot Disc USA
Source Code

@JoostinOnline if you're still around, can you look into this please?

I heard through the grapevine that JoostinOnline may have called this app "dangerously outdated". Not verified info, but just another word of caution when testing, at least until we have a sizable group of testers saying it's still solid. I mean, it's not like there's been a Nintendo update since it was being used by many, I don't see why it would all of a sudden develop issues without anything else changing.

Tldr, if testing this app be careful and make sure u have protection in place, and if u do test it, report your results so we can see how it performs, thx!

I managed to connect with JoostinOnline, here's some of what we talked about

snipped...can u comment on what larsenv had to say on BLIND:

Joostin said before it's "dangerously outdated" or something
if it contains WADs in it it can't go on WiiBrew because it goes against marcan's strict warez policy

Btw someone found and shared this
https://www.dropbox.com/s/jrk9unlignviwuy/BLIND 2.0.7z?dl=0
I haven't downloaded it yet to confirm what it contains, but it could have all of it (if we're lucky)

Also, do u remember what blind 2.1 was all about?

I don't know if I said dangerously outdated, but it is for sure outdated. It's not compatible with any of the new Wii motion plus remotes. I also made it for very specific cases. It was for Wii's that were stuck in Progressive mode when you only had composite cables. I never figured out why that happened and it wasn't common, but it was useful in those situations. If you're looking for a stable installer, I think WiiMod or WiiMod Lite was the name of an up to date one that was based on the same source code.

I haven't worked on any of that stuff in a decade at least, I don't know what any changes I made to it.

Also it's fine if you share anything I wrote, it's open source. I just can't necessarily provide any kind of help since I don't do that kind of thing any more.
