Hacking pussieLoader

[spiderjjr45]

May I suggest you rename it to "PussiiLoader", just to fit the Wii Theme?

 

[W hat]

No, you may not suggest that.

Even if you could, I'm against it. Not everything with the Wii needs to bii stupid.

Super Mariio Galaxy 2?

Is it possible to patch an IOS on reboot just as this patches the system menu? (I'm thinking "pussie backup launcher")

Not directly. This loader works, because it doesn't touch the IOS, so it keeps running and thinking that the program that is running is the system menu. Although you can launch IOS without installing them, but it's much more complicated and requires BootMii IOS to be installed. Sneek and cBoot2 are examples for that. It's also possible to patch IOS while they are running, Riivolution does that, but it's complicated and nothing that does it is open source.

Well, that's a pity. Risk-free, undetectable backup launching on virgin wiis would be a holy grail of sorts. Thanks for the answer, though

So what else might be possible without modifying the Wii in any way? Installing wads or perhaps booting a backup?

LOL running backups without cIOS installed is impossible. ( excluding modchips )

 

[cafevincent]

How about installing wads then?

 

[Riley]

you cannot install any wads untill you restore the trucha bug.

Move the disc channel?

It does not work for me. I need help. I have downloaded both the bannerbomb and boot.dol, extracted teh bannerbomb, moved private and bot.dol to the root of my SD card, and then tried loading the boot.dol from the Wii screen and it keeps freezing. Why does this keep hapening to me?

 

[metamaster]

This is a really good idea. I just think there is something.... wrong.... with the name

Maybe a dismatch between bannerbomb and your current Wii`s version?

Never had such problems, however i have a first gen motherboard Wii, so everything works like a charm to me :3

 

[smashdude]

Does it work for you guys? Seriously how many times did you have to restart your Wii to get it to work? The boot.dol I am talkkng about. This is pssing me off. THe pissingloader. How do you get it to work? My bannerbomb works fine for Homebrew and other hacks.

 

[smashdude]

Does this work for everyone? It freezes for me. What type of FAT system do I need for this, 32 or default? Who else is experiencing the boot.dol freezing the Wii screen when loading it? This is my only problem and I would like help ASAP. Thanks to all.

 

[W hat]

The latest version worked on the first try without crashing. (4.2U, Priiloader disabled and Bootmii bypassed)

 

[smashdude]

...what? How did you get this to run?

I made sure I was using V2, not V1. Please download V2 again and try again. V1 is very buggy, almost never works. I also made sure Priiloader and Bootmii were disabled. If I had Darkcorp installed, I'd consider that as a possible source of a problem.

Giantpune, once Bannerbomb is disabled, the days of pussieLoader are done for, right? I doubt it can be or ever will be run through Smash Stack / Indiana PWNs.

 

[giantpune]

starting this from something other than a system menu based exploit would require it to have some sort of trickery to tell the IOS that it is the system menu. since people that are using this are doing so because their wii is otherwise virgin, that rules out a patched IOS. this would require some sort of IOS exploit that works on the newest IOSes.

since (1) i dont have any of those laying around, and (2) if i did have one, i wouldnt waste it on a program as 1 dimensional as this only to be figured out and fixed quickly, this program is pretty much dead past system menu 4.2.

 

[smashdude]

Giantpune, has this pussieloader hack not worked for some people? I swear I have done all of the instructions right and the boot.dol still freezes on my wii screen whenever I try and load it. Please help. My wii is even 3.5 years old and system menu 4.2. Who here cannot get pussieloader to work other than me?
