Hacking Best Way to Mod Any Wii: ModMii for Windows: Official Support Thread

[XFlak]

so repeat the ModMii Wizard and this time tell ModMii you're on 4.3. ModMii won't tell u to use bannerbomb if you're on 4.3

 

[Flinger]

I apologize for the confusion. I went back through the steps and it is indeed Letterbomb that I am using. I'm using a PNY 2gb SD card if that matters.

Also, I want to say thanks a ton for this. I'm sure it is something I am doing wrong. I don't want to sound ungrateful.

 

[XFlak]

confirm you have boot.elf on the root of the SD card. If it's there, u can try reformatting the sd card, but if it still doesn't work it it's probably an sd card compatibility problem, so u may need to buy or borrow different one.

4.7.6 Changelog​

• Added ONEEK support. ONEEK is a mod of S\UNEEK by OverjoY and his team
  with many added features including support for wbfs games, multiple
  emulated nands and more. By default ModMii will build ONEEK but it
  continues to support the original S\UNEEK and can be activated in
  ModMii's Options. Note that Switch2Uneek is not an option when
  building ONEEK as the two apps are not compatible.
  
• Updated Wii Backup Manager to v0.3.8 build 69 and also updated
  MyMenuifyMod to v1.4.
  
• Fixed harmless bug where a System Menu was not downloaded under
  uncommon scenarios.
  
• Slightly modified Ascii2hex.bat to support rare cases where the
  old version would cause ModMii to close unexpectedly.
  Thanks to geovalley for reporting and solving this problem.
  
• No more stupid changelog jokes... the keyword being "stupid".

Finally...no more having to manually compile Oneek.


*goes off to see if it works*


EDIT: erm...how does this work? I did "I agree" to enter, S for the sneek setup, went with option 1 (I already have a bunch of emu-nands), then UD, then set it to download to the default folders. After the download, the txt mentions "NEEK2O rev4", but the created files don't work like they worked on the last RC.

EDIT 2: and the "NEEK2O" option in the options is enabled (by default).


EDIT 3: tried rebuilding it...noticed in the flashing text that comes by when building things, that...

Downloading dimodule.elf
Access is denied.

Doanloading fsmodule-usb.elf
Access is denied.

Downloading fsmodule-sd.elf

Downloading esmodule.elf
Access is denied.
Access is denied.

So 3 out of 4 of those needed files didn't download. I guess it just went ahead and created a regular uneek+DI then.

 

[Etheboss]

BTW xflak, i guess this news reached you to late,but ONEEK is now officially called NEEK2O..(neek2oooooh)..
I hope you can do a simple correction in ModMii
NVM, i see in the options menu (thanx Wever) it is already adjusted..

EDIT: About wevers EDIT3 - i don't get the access denied message, checked twice..

Also, i updated Modmii from within the program, and i still seem to be missing the option to build NEEK2O nands..
Or maybe i am looking in the wrong place, it's not on the main page and not in the SNEEK menu..​
Again, did not know you had to activate it in the options..

Greetz..

 

[Taleweaver]

(small note: EtheBoss and me are on IRC...he doesn't have the issue I'm having)

I just noticed I have the correct files in \Modmii\temp (named "NEEK2O-dimodule.elf" and so on). Hashes seem to confirm they're the ones needed. No idea why modmii isn't co-operating in transforming those elf files into nice little bin-nies.

Gonna use this tonight to update my Wii that I haven't touched in about a year

Anything I might need to know before continuing?

 

[Flinger]

confirm you have boot.elf on the root of the SD card. If it's there, u can try reformatting the sd card, but if it still doesn't work it it's probably an sd card compatibility problem, so u may need to buy or borrow different one.

Where am I supposed to get the boot.elf file from? When I go to letterbomb it sends me a zip file with only a "Private" folder. I place the private folder on the SD card.

Nope nothing . You just open it , tell it what you need to update & follow its instructions also having a NAND backup somewhere safe before updating can't hurt .

Access denied? That's weird. Where do u have ModMii saved? Try running it as an admin and see if that makes a difference. If you want to see more of whats going on, do a ctrl+f in modmii.bat for "Downloading dimodule.elf" and delete all the ">nul" in all those sections. You can also add a pause in there somewhere if it helps read what going on.

It's working fine for me. Did u have this problem with ModMii v4.7.5 (or ModMii v4.7.6 with the neek2o option disabled)?

edit: is it possible the files were being used by something else when ModMii tried to access them? Try a restart.

edit 2: I should note that I've tested it personally on 2 PCs without any problems (windows 7 64-bit and windows xp)

lol sorry forgot that direct links does that here .

 

[XFlak]

ModMii should have already saved a boot.elf to your sd card. If it's not there, you can just repeat the ModMii wizard or download just the hackmii installer from download page 2.

 

[kylster]

I do have to say even though I mod Wii's with a custom System Menu now your app is still essential and I only recently found out you added the ability to check a .csv for out of date IOS; this right here should have been in from the start, it is quite amazing! Thank you.

When updating I have to go back and change my setting manually again. NM I never saved setting LoL I changed them but then updated w/o pressing "S" LoL

EDIT: I edit my post too much LoL; are there any plans to implement PostLoader3 into the creation of ONEEK/NEEK2O (what's the official name anyways or will it be both). PL3 supports games converted to FST and I'm assuming WBFS now cause of ONEEK and it's a great way of loading apps in NEEK anyways; maybe even better then having the HBC honestly. Well I'm just curious on this anyways I know your not trying to add a lot but it seems like it would be very convenient if we were able to install priiloader and then install neekbooter.dol (with autoboot) all from w/in modmii.

 

[Luigi2012SM64DS]

only problem is it keeps saying i need to fromt on that computer. WHAT DO I DO?

Sounds like you better FROMT HARDER THAN YOU'VE EVER FROMT BEFORE.

That made me frompt.

Format but its fixed now

 

[XFlak]

yea, I'm considering adding postloader to ModMii. But there are a few more basic things I plan on doing first before adding more bells and whistles to modmii. Also, I've been told of some new features that will be eventually added to neek2o (that's the right name btw) that may make installing files to priiloader redundant. I've already said too much

 

[geovalley]

Got some questions:

1. I've been running Uneek+di. How do I convert it to neek2o? I mean how does it have direct wbfs format game access without start from scratch? I've tried replacing a couple files without success. Kindly please advise.
2. Used ModMii to crease neek2o (s and then ud, I assume it will create it, right?) from scratch, but it only has essential files there, i.e. no boot.elf is under root. What happened? Did I miss anything?
3. I renamed the original ModMii directory and run ModMii installer to start. Copied the original temp directory back under the new ModMii directory. It should be OK, right?

Thank you all, you the guys!
