Hacking SNEEK+DI quick guide

[Gabber]

that would had fit in one message easily.. i still can't get any sneek to work..

the health screen is the furthest can get but when i get that i get a corrupt file message.

with clean nand my wii slot blinks its light like crazy but waiting doesnt do anything either .

I think it is a good idea to add in the first page so people doesn't waste time trying to find a way to run homebrew or emulator with SNEEK+DI:

SNEEK+DI :

Considering SD support, DVD drive support *AND your USB drive* support for Wii applications TOTALLY disabled...

Cause it is true, we can understand why SD (which got NAND redirection) and DVD drive (which got DI redirection) are blocked for homebrew BUT WHY THE HELL USB DRIVE is also blocked

So don't waste your time trying thousands settings...HBC will not SEE your SD *AND* your USB drive APPS directory.

So SNEEK+DI is only valuable for VC/WW/Games iso extracted & uncrypted launching in an "virtualized "on SD" NAND. No homebrew cause no USB drive nor SD support !!!

Apps work for me on my sneek_DI you just have to edit the source to enable the sd access if you read all the original post you'll see that it has all the information that is needed to enable sd access for apps in sneek_sd, sneek_DI and sneek_usb

u re right

that s what i do too. sdstatus need to be set "1" in main.c in ES module. But dvd drive support is just available on Sneek mod is usually used by chip users

...oh the fun of bricking SD cards...

SNEEKInstaller GUI update, r101 and updated pre-compiled files!

DI:
ÂÂÂÂ-Fixed a but which prevented new settings to be saved

 

[overlord00]

i might of missed this, however:

is there a way, instead of using a usb gecko, to print to a log file or something everything that is happening... would be great for debugging without a gecko...


found out how to do this reading this: http://gbatemp.net/t217092-unoffical-usblo...x-s?&st=285

 

[NReale3370]

I just tried out the new r101, deleted my diconfig.bin to see if it would make the changes properly, and while it did my games list is garbage text now, anyone else having this?

UPDATE: a peek at the diconfig.bin in a hex editor seems to show that its not saving any game information at all

 

[SanGor]

r102 fixes your issue, NReale3370

 

[NReale3370]

Already all over it thanks though!

 

[bander]

sneek id r102 doesnt work like it should, it makes a new folder called sneek on the usb drive with my games list and does nothing(white screen)

booted with priiloader, boot2 as ios. 4.2e black wii.

emu nand: backup and clean nand, same problem.

normal sneek boots.

 

[jhoff80]

So, it might just be my compiled version which changes SDStatus to 1 for SD homebrew support, but the 1 button on my remote is no longer bringing up the SNEEK menu in r102.

Anyone else having this issue, or should I just attempt recompiling without changing the SDStatus to see if that's what's causing it?

 

[scooby74029]

@jhoff80

I compiled my own also and changed sd status. I have same problem with 1 button but gamecube controller still brings up the menus

 

[jhoff80]

Just compiled it as-is, and yeah, the 1 button isn't opening the menu anymore, so I reported it on the SNEEK Google Code site.

 

[redeyed]

The sneek game list is working for me with r102. The only thing I did different was add priiloader hacks to the SMenu.c. (Thanks to gameking66 for pointing this out in the Sneek v2 thread.)

The priiloader hacks I'm using below

[SanGor]

that sure is a hack-mess, some hacks with the same result are double or even three times in there.
SNEEK makes all channels region free by default and the region free disc patch from SNEEK was three lines less!

Before using any hacks you should should READ and only pick the once you need instead of using as much as possible.

 

[overlord00]

still, cool to see you figured that out... also, dont uses "break"... considered "bad programming" (and also is not needed)
yeah, my bad. you DO need the break for switch cases... forgive me.

 

[megazig]

using a break for a select case statement is proper programming.

 

[scooby74029]

hey guys
Do any of you have any of the CSI games working in sneek+di? I have tried mine several times. It will load and create the save file but when i go to the first mission it just black screens. Is there a fix for this? I can play my Japanese games in sneek with usa settings just fine but the CSI game just black screens at the first mission. If anyone can help me please let me know. Thanks in advance.


edit: the game is CSI: deadly intent

edit: the game hard evidence works but not deadly intent maybe bad dump with discex going to try to dump again ill post results

 

[Luriden]

I'm trying to set this up... I followed the directions, got the needed bin files, put them on the root of my SD card along with the armboot.bin in sd:\bootmii, put it in my Wii... now what? Pressing start doesn't bring up any menus, and everything on my Wii seems exactly the same as before. Trying to launch BootMii from HBC brings up a blank menu. Was there a step skipped in the instructions on the first page that I was supposed to take?

Also, I don't know if this makes a difference, but awhile back when trying to install BootMii, it said that the boot1 prevents boot2 from being installed (-2). Once again, don't know if that effects it, but I feel like there's an obvious step I'm missing besides plopping the created bin files on an SD.
