how do i tell if a wad will brick my wii or not?

 

Just be careful where you get the WADs at. I know for sure that LoZ_OOT_v1.0.wad is a bad WAD, so if you stumble upon that with the same filename on a torrent site of any kind stay clear of it.

 

Luriden is right about that wad, it was a bad inject into the wad, it bricked about 5 wiis over at wiiso, the user promised to unbrick with savemii when he received it through the post.

should be a utility that finalises weather the wad will be ok. shame there isnt.

 

yep lol, hes a bad bad boy haha

 

Waninkoko isn't hated, who thinks that??
I mean come on he's a legend along with Bushing, Marcan, Emu kidd etc the list of programmer hackers goes on, you cannot hate people like this, this is where we get the things we want from, i mean lets face it most of us can program for sh*te.

And if you mean utility (for the wad) which bricked wiis, well thats your choice for installing it, you need to make sure your getting from trusted sites or members!
And it certainly was not Waninkoko lol, he ain't as daft as that hehe RESPECT

 

With starfall, if you install the "Start rescue-menu when Y is held on the 1st gc controller" and "remove rescue-menu diagnostic disc check" hacks, the wii will boot into any regular wii game when the Y button on the 1st gc controller is held on start up, including twilight princess, so if you banner brick you wii, had the hacks installed with starfall, and have the twilight hack already on your wii, you can recover from it.

 

What can I do about that?

 

so basically, the rule that we cannot give links to roms also endangers users because they cannot Ask if a specific site has any dangerous files - that rule fucks me up coz thats 1 of the reasons i twilighted my wii - and now i'm gonna have to risk my wii? screw you admids!!*













* no offense

 

So, is the previously mentioned site a good site to get .wad's from?

 

Yes previous post is the best place to get wads from. even still there has been a few issues with certain wads, but its pretty rare.
