Hacking Softmii v0.9

[AsosaYoung]

Just a word of advice please do not try until you understand a least 75% (That mean you know everything up to what is and how to fix a Semi Brick).

randysteele992 Your Wii is NTSC right. If that is the case you need to have the 42. It's the original Health Screen 45.app that's for Pal Wii's only.

Would appreciate help rather then critics saying .. 'You dumb f***ers!'

I'm pretty sure I know what a semi brick is.
I followed instructions saying to use the tweak installer to reinstall 42.app. But it does nothing for me.
When I boot up, my screen is just black. What do I need to do to get softmii to work correctly?
Install Starfall? Iv seen posts saying to use ARC instead. Yet I can not find a download link for this "ARC".

In the software package 0.95 is preloader 0.25. The code for this version is 1 - R - A - 1 - D (down) - U (up). But I have downloaded 0.26 and overwrite it with 0.25 (it is the same file name). Then everything was fine. And your code works.

I think if you read correctly I was saying that the 'creator' was basically saying that to people like me that were clearly having problems with the code....

And thanks for the reply above... i've tried with both .25 and .26... will search for .27.. thanks

Hi everyone. My install went great. I have even changed the health screen from pirate to matrix mario with no issues.

I installed preloader 25 during the softmii install.

I'm going to use the hack remover and then try to manually install 27. My issue is that i put the preloaderv0.27-cred.dol in a folder in the apps section of my SD and it doesn't come up in the HBC. Do I have to rename it boot.dol or something?

ALSO - Can I remove most of the softmii stuff from my SD card? What should I leave on there?

I AM NTSC - do i need 00000045.APP on the root of my SD or can I get rid of it?

rename it boot.dol. You can remove whatever you want, but back it up on your pc.

 

[AsosaYoung]

People in preload you have to enable the Health Menu Hack. Run SoftMii Tweak, Choose correct .app, as soon as it finish in stalling (while still on the softmii tweak menu) HARD boot the Wii off, Then back on again.

Hold fire on installing PL0.27 manually, the codes not available to run the install yet, the other option is to install 0.26 and upgrade to the newer version using the built in upgrade option

 

[randysteele992]

[kimikal27]

Look for digtydogs post on here he has NTSC screen. Place one on the sd root. Thur preloader run the HBC. Run SoftMii Tweak install .app when it return to app list Hard boot Wii off. Then on.

richglix 45 is for Pal Wii's you don't need it.
