Hacking RestoreMii

[wiiman123]

After seeing the clearly edited faked video, vague instructions and knowing how wads are structured.

 

[crwys]

.... A quick summary of this:

 

[Vidboy10]

Okay, Okay guys.
how about i make the video again and this time no cuts okay?

 

[icefireicefire]

Why? its stupid, pointless, and just bricks n00bs. This file just either:
a) bricks you
b) does nothing
c) can't be installed on a bricked wii

 

[Vidboy10]

Thats why there's a video mate

 

[icefireicefire]

Thats why there's a video mate

what the hell? having a video just LURES n00bs into trying something you...
a) DIDNT MAKE
b) IS STUPID
c) bricks people if they DO install it

You are just digging your own grave here...

A Patched Sysytme Menu Wad To Restore your Wii!
Click Here To See It!

That settles it, u's trollin'.

 

[piratesmack]

Sorry to be a faggot, but isn't this wad illegal and not allowed here?

 

[Vidboy10]

Real SystemMenu wads are ilegal here.
but with patched ones i dont see how thats bad.

 

[FenrirWolf]

It's still hosting copyrighted material even if you've tweaked it in some way or another. By that logic we'd be able to give out wads of cIOS without worry.

wut?
cIOS's are patched and they're not allowed here

Maybe you could write a guide on using NUS Downloader to build wads for IOS60 and System Menu 4.0?
Or IOS30 and System Menu 3.2...
Or something...

I'm pretty sure that'd be allowed here.

Its simple just close this thread out and delete it!! I wouldnt trust it i can see a noob bricking there wii with this easly its not worth it why take the risk nothing against you there vidboy but this wad can do more harm then good!

 

[Vidboy10]

Okay guys, New version of the video uploaded on the first post and theyres absolutely no cuts in the video.

 

[icebrg5]

New video doesnt even show it finishing.

I think this is a good effort on the side of Vidboy to help out the community with something but i think in his excitement and youth he has failed to see the dangers of this.

I dont think he has any malice in his intentions and does genuinely want to release something that will help the community , but he has inadvertantly released something that is

1. Illegal to link to and wont be allowed on this site as it breaches copyrights.
2. Is not as stable as the name makes it sound
3. Could potentially brick a wii as opposed to fixing it if used incorrectly by noobs
4. This is available for quite a while in seperate packages just never bundled - but it hasnt been bundled previosuly because of the issues it can potentially cause.
5. Still requires pre-requisits for this to run so will not recover a full brick as stated just a partial brick

I can see he is still trying to help out with this and i think he should be given a little bit of slack and not as much abuse. People should try to guide him in the right direction for the future and not completely bash his efforts as he is trying to help but his direction on this project was just a little off.

Well done on the effort vidboy , but for your own sake and the sake of others i think you should keep this more of a low profile project and maybe keep an eye out for another niche in the homebrew market where you can make a more appreciated input in the future.

i tried this on a full bricked wii and it worked.

Hey Buddy,
no offense, but your signature failes even more than your "app". I think I'll reuse it in my own sig, if you don't mind...
Sorry, but for me this whole thing is just one big epic fail

 

[Vidboy10]

And allso the video is fixed and they're is absolutely no cuts in the video what so ever.
