I'd say options 7 as well. Looking forward to the new version and riivolution parsing as well sound hopeful.
Is it possible to make an ISO of a game with just those things? As far as I can tell, most of the missing information is related to changes people have made themselves, like the save editing and such. If that's the case- couldn't we make another file that is parsed which contains additional settings for known Riivolution XMLs/Games?So, the consensus is to simplify plugins to contain only information not contained in the RVL XML plus URL and Name for autodownload and change the backend to Riivolution XML parser while keeping the user options the same? I know I can do that... Oh, and add the Messages pack. One thing I'm fighting with in my mind is disk ID, right now we have SMN compatibility down to the release version, this will be tricky to retain with the XMLs running the show and expanding to "Riivolution Disk Image Maker".
From my experience working with this project, the plugin will have pre-defined values for modName, saveName, URL, saveBanner, Messages, and ID variants. Fairly small compared. As far as release-level disk identification, the XMLs don't list that so either I need to drop the compatibility, or I need to rework the detection and keep the compatibility line in plugin. A plugin will not be required for basic XML parsing, but you will have to manually change DiskID, etc.
That would be pretty good. Especially because Unspecified Game ID's when found in loaders will usually grab the title info from the disc as a fall back when it can't find it in the gametdb.@CheatFreak47 I definately agree in principal on your suggestion. I'm not sure if the last two digits of the ID6 NEED to be numbers, but the specification states they are. So maybe RIBa## where a=0-Z and #=0-9 using incrementing counter. So first "anonymous" image would be RIB000 and last would be RIBZ99. That would allow for 3600 images.
DarkUmbra's Anniv Ed was on my list of updates to do before I decided I'm going to discontinue support for the Builder after the 1.7 release and upgrade it to Riivolution Image Builder. If you want to make your own plugin for Patcher the spec is Here: http://gbatemp.net/threads/nsmbw-mod-iso-builder-v1-00.349853/page-15#post-4838994 If you have any issues with the format feel free to message me here or at same user on gmail.Could you make the ISO Builder work with "Remixed Super Mario Bros Wii"
http://rvlution.net/thread/3645-remixed-super-mario-bros-wii/
and "DarkUmbra SMB Anniversary Edition"
http://rvlution.net/thread/2232-darkumbra-smb-anniversary-edition/
as they both have a full set of new levels in them?
Thank you for this great tool!!
I'm sorry but I don't understand what you are asking. Hows the project going?DarkUmbra's Anniv Ed was on my list of updates to do before I decided I'm going to discontinue support for the Builder after the 1.7 release and upgrade it to Riivolution Image Builder.

P.S. If you do make them please post a link to the Plugin Module here so others can enjoy.
Update: I really have been primarily having an inertia issue with my updates, I should be able to push 1.7 this week if I can get myself on track, I'm just really procrastinating on it... I know 1.7 is a day or two of hard coding.
I may change my mind about future support even after making RIB, as writing the Plugin Modules is easy, just would need some interest shown in continued support for the original... Also I think a rename is in order for the original project, as it is a very long acronym.
So, let's make upvotes on this post be continued support for the original project's Plugin Module format (and possibly making RIB compatible with those modules.
Update2: I finished making the engine changes for messagesPatch, I need to add a line to the plugin files. Format will be messagesPatch=src1:dest1;src2:dest2:...srcN:destN parsed the same way as Lang, including the escape codes.
Update3: I realize I renamed some of the directories of the messages pack, in order to write these plugins compatibly with the package I need a new copy. Would someone link me? v1.07 is ready except for that. ( core file can be downloaded from https://www.dropbox.com/s/z34yzcvx24fhek4/Build_ISO.bat )
Thanks!!!Since @CaseyOmah seems to be MIA, I updated my old fork of Mod ISO Builder to work with Newer 1.2.0 and rehosted it on a less crap site.

There's a link for anyone interested.
Everything is the same as before but my version string patch is now updated for Newer 1.2.0 and a small tweak was made to the batch to fix a minor issue with the version string on the controller screen.
- Extract 7z somewhere on your computer
- Place ISO of NSMBW in that directory
- Place the Riivolution and Mod Folder in that directory
- Run Build_ISO_Patched.bat and specify the desired settings and requested information
- Confirm your choices and wait for the ISO to build
- Run ISO/WBFS in Dolphin or a Wii USB Loader as desired
oji Thank you for your report.
1. Did you run the update? "Working folder" version is still 1.05 so it offers the full release. If you ran the update I'll fix that.
2. Koopa Country banner is not on the banner Dropbox, I do not manage that resource.
3 & 4. Looks like I have a typo in the wit copy command, I'll check that against release.
I'll look into these issues in detail when I get home.
Generated ISO has Header GameID of:
Mod Name GameID AltID
Another SMBW: SMN.05 KMA.05
AwesomerSLM: SMN.02 KML.02
Cannon SMBW: SMN.04 KMD.04
Epic Super Bowser World: SMN.08 KME.08
Newer Holiday Special: SMN.07 KMH.07
Koopa Country: SMN.10 KMK.10
Newer SMBW: SMN.03 KMW.03
Retro Remix: MMR.09 KMR.09
Newer Summer Sun: SMN.06 KMS.06
I see you still only need 2 banners (red ones) all the others are already available for all regions
I'll try you have'em finished today if I have time
