Hopefully someone with some programming knowledge will make a full GUI that you just import some JPG's, and you get the full banner-ized WAD...

I would gladly donate some money to that cause, it would be well worth it to have some nice "hacked" rom channels (Zelda Parallel Worlds for one!)

I believe the was a nuked WAD of Zelda Parallel Worlds.

jayparadox, I have a little request: Could you make a MFE-Channel? Currently MFE doesn't work correctly when booted with the old and new HBC or HBLauncher, but when loaded directly through the TP-hack, it works perfectly. Maybe a channel for MFE would work to. You don't have to make it with banner, just a black channel would be sufficient for testing out.

Thanks in advance

I have updated and tested with success the MFE for the HBC. The one linked to in the first post of the HBC apps thread should work fine now, as long as you can understand the simple instructions of where to put which folders on your SD card. Which you would still have to do with an MFE channel...
 
yeah and how many times am i going to tell you it runs perfectly?

have you tried using a different version from a different source?

i watched a 700mb .avi with no freezing

I'm currently haveing two problems getting my custom VC bammer to work.

1. I dont know where the name of the save file description is stored (but i did get the save icon changed)
2. I got the channel's Icon working, but my banner is all black, I'm assuming this is because I don't have a proper IMET header.

So i'm rather curious about the IMET header, i've been using that BannerTool 1.0.1 by calantra, but i'm nit sure if it is doing everythung correctly, so I ask, are there any other programs that deal with the IMET header?
The template Jay provided in his guide is not helping me either

up to this point i've been able to get by on what other's have said/provided, but now i'm stumped.
Over at ElOtroLado.net, Gally has made a special U8 packer that sets the IMET header correctly(apart of loads of other interesting things). I've helped him with a lot of info on these files, and now they work properly.

So i found the tool that you were talking about, but when I install a wad with the new imet header, nothing shows up on my wii dash. Am I doing something wrong with the tool, or should I go back and make sure my banner.bin is set up correctly? Also, which setting should I use: Archive with banner info, archive with banner info with md5, or one of the DVD ones?

Well, i'm probably going to poke around my banner.bin just to make sure I did'nt screw up there.

It all depends on lots of things. If it isn't showing on the Wii Menu, it looks like a IMET errors. Open the file in HEX after creating it and check it has the WAD Banner structure, not the DVD Banner structure(opening.bnr).
 
You know, they should made a banner for the ps3 emulator on the wii, ROFL; i got my friend to use it today man was i laughing so hard when he thought it was true...
 
n00bish question (sorry to ask if it's already been asked but the thread is so long!) - I have an injected ROM file that I'd LOVE to give a banner. Is there an easy way/program out there that can do this or am I better off sending the files to jayparadox or what?

Tell me the game it is(and system), the image you want and the name that appears under the pic

I made and uploaded a banner for that game. Someone asked in private for it xD here ya' go: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=C966FX8J

Working on other VC ones now

And trying to include a special animation to the standard VC banner: Central image will fade into another one and back, so we can have 2 nice big images in the banner

Everyone should try FileFactory for uploading... no limit on downloading, and it's VERY fast to get to the download button, lol

And THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE ZELDA BANNER!!! YOU ROCK!!

PS, how do I put the BNR into a WAD?

Just rename the file to 00000000.app or *.000.des or whatever the WAD packer you use requires. Its got the BNR extension from the DVD I use xD
