Hacking How to Join Split Iso files

[WiiFit_Guy]

So long story short, I had a compatible USB to work with clean rip but I could only use 1GB. That being because I have other stuff in it.

So I went to download SSBB in increments of 1GB each.

Problem is I have 8 split iso files, and I want to convert it to one single iso game.

Any tips?

EDIT: Alright. I found out you can rename the file to game.iso.001 so that HJ split will read the file and follow up to join the rest of the single split iso files. It will change your file to 001. But dont worry it wont destroy it or make it corrupt. I used dolphin and it worked.

Also tried it with USB loader GX and worked.

if they are .001 .002 .003 normally splitted (and dont use any kind of compression\conversion or special format) files you can use http://hjsplit.org/
or if you have 7zip installed, you can open one file (the first one) and extract it

you can try to join the files using hjsplit, try on dolphin, or check the hash with redump, if the files where correctly joined it will probably work on dolphin

Thanks, the problem is i tried hj split, and it cant find or read my files in the input browser. Can i rename the file to just (.001) and take out the (.iso)? Or will that damage my iso?

I also used Wii backup manager, and somehow it put 7.12gb in my wbfs folder. Im thinking it tried to trim the game to the actual Wii format. though Im sure the game is more smaller (I believe the game is more like 6gb).

Either way, I tried going to USB loader and it read my game in the usb drive, though the banner was black and it webt to a black screen.

I know I dumped the game good through clean rip. though I used 8 parts (of about 1 GB each).

well i dont know how clean rip cuts the files, if it does a raw cut and you know the order of the files you can rename them to include the .001 parts
if clean rip ads an header to each individual split file or uses some kind of format or container, hjsplit is no use...

can't you rip it via network?

Network?

 

[migles]

yeah, network,just checked on website, it doesn't support it.. only usb and SD card.. either way i can't help you much more with this.. hopefully someone can tell you more

Amazing how I searched everywhere online and it seems like no one ever has done something like what I did (which is rather simple). There is no such software to join split wii iso?
