Hi, so this is my situation, around a year ago I picked up my old Wii to install CTGP in it, it was modded AGES ago at the time so I formatted it and reintalled Homebrew and all the cIOS so they would be up to date, that went fine and all until recently I realised something very crucial (to me) was not there. You see, when my Wii was hacked we sent it to some guys to do it for us (I was a kid back then blame me) and they had this custom forwarder channel for uLoader with their phone contacts and all (they are dead now I just verified), as silly as it looks it does mean a lot to me as it pretty much was with me my entire childhood, the tune is burnt into my brain and the lowres Prince of Persia Prodigy cover haunts me on my sleep, I need to get this channel back into my Wii at whatever cost, I have the full NAND and SD card backup and I looked a bit into the latter to see if I could find a .wad for uLoader, which I did, but it only gave me the default uLoader channel which was kind of heartbreaking to be honest. Is there a way to get this channel into a .wad file so that I can still see my younger self load those burned pirated discs through uLoader? ;-; I have the Wii itself and can run the NAND on Dolphin (which is what I used to record it for my and your pleasure).

If I have to install the old NAND into my Wii again and start from the ground up to get it back I'll do it, but I need answers. HELP PLEASE!

The channel in question: https://video.twimg.com/ext_tw_video/1385464593405911040/pr/vid/1226x720/3p4kbNDavaCc4Nxd.mp4?tag=12

Thank you.

Extract your nand.bin and view its contents using showmiiwads/showmiinand, it will list all the channels (and other things) installed to your wii, right click the one you want and pack it into a wad

Edit: full transparency, I didn't read your entire post
