Hacking sciifii v2

[longtom1]

just use the offline downloader to download the files needed

just select you're region and what parts you want to use press download and tell it where to save and it creates a folder called sciifii you copy that to the root of your sd card and you're good to go

thanks it worked, but is there a way to install it without using siifii, like the offical cios does, it uses its own program

 

[arasium]

Code it yourself....

A cios is a cios. The program use to install it will never change the result. If you want to only have the cios in sciifii, edit the xml.

 

[samethernet]

ok, one thing i noticed, the offical cios installer also installs to ios 250, using sciifii didn't, so i installed the offical released of cios38rev17 then installed the one from here so its got both parts of cios38rev17b

 

[arasium]

oh, ok you hadn't fully explained your demand at the first time

Now i understand what you want.

This will be done (and configurable) in sciifi V3.

 

[samethernet]

cool, but could u please stay with cios38rev17b and dont go to higher versions, the higher versions are confusing and buggy

 

[arasium]

In fact, in V3 you will be able to choose your cios. Because the installer is fully configurable in the xml.

I mean, you will put in the xml the plugins, the modules, the patch, the cios slot and revision. So it will be very easy to change the Xml in order to create an other cios (we have do that in order to include hermes cioses and futures cioses without recompiling sciifii).

 

[samethernet]

cool, i understand, but how will the compile of sciifii be able to get the changes required for the newer cios which is released after v3

 

[arasium]

Because this will be in the xml. A plugin or module is just a piece of data. This can be stored in a file.
Then sciifii will read the file and put the content of this file where it's needed in the ios.

 

[samethernet]

what is the build number of the cios38rev17b which is included

 

[arasium]

We don't modify the banner. Because this isn't very usefull for the wii.

 

[samethernet]

i am asking the build number of the cios you use in sciifii

 

[arasium]

?! I don't understand what you want. Whe are installing the cios rev17b.

I've worked with waninkoko and i've the source code of the cios Rev17 installer (the one of waninkoko).
The only differences are:
- Used the fixed DIP plugin (the one with the good patch for Dual Layer Disc size)
- The banner module hasn't been modified from the ios. So it's the banner of IOS38vXXX (i don't remenber wich version of ios base is used).

We don't use any other cios. The only cios we use is the one installed by Sciifii or ht eone in the slot 249 if you choose to not install the cios with sciifii (advanced mode).

i am asking the build number of the cios you use in sciifii

build number?

"revision" do you mean?

 

[samethernet]

yeh, the revision number is what i mean

plus does MPT and SSBB (dvd-9) work on rev17b via a clean dump

 

[wes11ph]

yeh, the revision number is what i mean

plus does MPT and SSBB (dvd-9) work on rev17b via a clean dump

rev17b

 

[arasium]

The cios rev17 loads dvd9 without any pb (the b is a fix about dvd9 dumps).

But, this sin't a question about sciifii!!! Our cios is the same as the one of wanonkoko, so go reading waninkoko readmes.

hi there i have used this program a few times now and am highly impressed with its simplicty to use and the time it saves so thank you so much for your time in makeing it .
i have been asked to look at a ntsc-jap wii for a freind and wonderd if scifii is compatibal. if not is there anyway to change the reigion (ie any region changer) so that i can use it.
thanks in advance for any help or information with this

 

[arasium]

in theory, you shouldn't have any pb.

But, a bootnii nand dump is always a security, so do a dump before.

If i hacked my wii with a different tutorial, will this app be able to unhack the wii.
