It seems that RegionFrii is bugged (because the offset of the third partition is bigger than 0xFFFFFFFF). So extracted partitions #2 and #3 are not the good ones.
With WiiBrowse, partition #3 can be extracted but partition #2 can't be extracted, because his size is bigger than 2 Gb (an another bug ...

)

You can try this way to remove the #001 in the third partition. Not tested yet.

1. With WiiBrowse, extract the #3 partition of MKW iso in encoded format (.enc)
2. With RegionFree, inject this enc file in the first partition of an other two-partition iso.
3. With Trucha, open the two-partition iso and extract the mail.dol of the first partition.
4. With GWP path the main.dol to remove the #001 error.
5. With Trucha, replace the mail.dol of the first partition with the patched file and sign the partition to patch the iso.
6. With WiiBrowse, extract the #1 partition of the patched iso in encoded format (*.enc)
7. With an hexadecimal editor, open the MKW iso, go to offset 0x01155D0000 and replace the 31'588'352 following bytes with those of your generated enc file.

I hope it works.

i'm burning....let's see if you're as smart as i think

Wiibrowse doesn't work with me

I'll try again.

You can manually extract a partition from a iso with an hexadecimal editor.
Alternate step 1 - in the MKW iso : offset 0x01155D0000, size 31'588'352 bytes.
Alternate step 6 - in the two-partitions patched iso : check the offset of the first partition with RegionFrii (it's probably 0x50000), same size.

where do you get the ppf patch for mario kart from

@vv_ the beginning of the 3nd partition is 0x01155D0000 or 155D0000 ? Because RegionFrii tell me is 0155D0000.

The real offset of the third partition 0x01155D0000.
RegionFrii is bugged, it's not able to deal with partition offset bigger than 0xFFFFFFFF

Everyone who has been working on bypassing the problems reek of awesomeness and I thank you for all the hard work. Through this post i was able to get MKWii working on my batch 1 Wiinja V1. Look forward to racing you guys once Nintendo's servers get going.

Thanks to people like you we don't have to risk updating our crappy old chips, thanks a lot!

Looking forward to the PPF and playing some Mario Kart

does the PPF work for US systems?

This is what I did.

1. Downloaded the PPF and applied it the mkwii.iso
2. Went here and got all his tools. http://wii.waninkoko.info/
3. Used Wii Update Remover v1.0 to remove update.
4. Used WiiFrii v2.3b to make NTSC compatible.
5. Burned with Nero 6.3 at 8x on Maxell DVD-R with Pioneer 112D
6. Played Mario Kart Wii on my Wiinja v1!!!

The new ppf patch is here

Download: PPF-o-Matic
The ppf patch: Mkwii2.ppf

Launch PPF-o-matic, ISO file: the original Mario Kart Wii iso (=unpatched)
Patch: Mkwii2.ppf
Click Apply, and burn the iso =)

Thx to those who participate in this work =)

See you later on the online of Mkwii =D

What are the main differences in the patches? Is it just the MK Channel functionability?

JinVa, first of all thanks for your work. Just to be sure, with your patch and don't have to update my wiikey? I never updated it so I thinks its the version before 1.9b.
And if I use Wiiupdate remover 1.0 my wii version will stay at 3.0E wich it is now?

I can play Mariokartwii after this?
