Hacking Possiable ways to softmod the Wii

[infinete]

a way may have been found out, hope it has, but the point of this thread, or atleast i thought it was, was to discuss many ways to softmod the wii

:S

 

[jan777]

hey all,, i didnt want to make a new thread because of this so sorry for the hi-jack

if you to hackmii.com

look at the comments on the new dvd library,comment 81 by brushing (not to be confused with bushing, the wiibrew god)

he says that he had found a experimental but working iso loader

well i downloaded the file and read the readme
says that load the file then follow the on screen instructions, then insert the disc

well dont flame me i am 99.95% sure its fake
i just thought you wanted to know

Read our posts before asking.

High res? More like a blocky flash video.

Didn't nitrotux say he was working on the softmod/iso loader in previous threads? Team Twiizers is only releasing a dvd library to read dvd-r's.

Somewhat (or maybe completely) off topic question:
Does the dvd file system allow for files of size larger than 4 GB? If so couldn't this rule out the need for usb iso loading due to fat/fat32 file size issues, by burning the iso as a file rather than fitting the image over the disk? Obviously the dvd drive is fast enough as that's how games are normally played. Also to make things clear, I have absolutely no coding knowledge and I'm not saying LOLOL THIS IS TEH SECRETZ TO WII SOFTMOD!!!11!!1. Just, if an isoloader does pop up, could this be a viable solution for how to load the game rather than trying to pass of a burned game as a genuine encrypted disc?

Ok i got an idea, Dont flame me im just a noobz XD

Whats actually possible? This is.

Backup Loader Channel, works by using DVD Access Library then Loads Backup DVD-R by On the fly patching from the Sd card or Nand (Backup Loader channel could flash the patcher to the Nand so you don't need it on a sd) throughout the game.

Backup channel could have

A decent GUI
Implented Ocarina Cheat system (Could get permission and source from the Author)
Updater, which Downloads Latest patches for games to work and Latest cheats

What do you think?

Note: this is not a backup loader, in any way, shape, or form. If you’re looking for a backup loader, please move along.

And, hasn't it already been said that the dvd access library can't be used to load "backups"

Um no. Not happening. Get a modchip, sorry, drivechip.
In slightly related news, Nuke doesn't plan to open the source of GeckoOS related stuff.

Actually, I think it was said that He wasn't going to make a back-up loader himself. I think it's also been said that a back-up loader's possible, but it'll more work then just using the Library alone.

ok, Its either

1. I didnt point it out clearly.
2. you didn't understand what I said right.

1. Okay, the DVD access library gives access to the DVD drive.
2. Backup can be read, Though the On the fly patcher that changes how the DVD drive accesses the disk is needed to allow you to play the game.

need I make it any simpler? Yet, I have contacted Waninkoko, He said its a Possible solution but its not as easy as it sounds.

Its abit like Devhook for the PSP, it tricked the PSP to think it was loading the System Firmware from Flash0:/ but it was reading it from Ms0:/ (Memory stick)

But, this would however trick the Wii to read the disk as any other disk the DVD Library would exploit to read.

The (unreleased) DVD access library will use a series of oddball commands to read data. Patching a game on the fly to use these methods is extremely unlikely

 

[ppc_gba]

maybe our loader could store its many read functions/hacks in a single function that works like dvd_readlow, and then patch the game's export table to use the fake function.

or, better yet, install a custom ios patched to redirect calls to dvd_readlow to our custom read method, then the game is simply launched using this custom ios.

Enough speculation from warez kiddies, people with as few as one post, and wholly ignorant people.


If you don't know what you're talking about, your speculations are about as good as me saying the solution is peanut butter.
