[WiiBlaster]

Ok first i will patch the IOS35 and see if my Wii Game 1:1 works, I let ya now the results, here in a little bit, and you are 100% sure about the IOS35 cause if its the wrong IOS it wont work right

 

[ether2802]

100% sure

I have about 200 games to test with so if there is one in particular I can try and find out some info for ya.... i will be out for awhile to pick up some money and after that I am looking forward to testing something more

More good news, My 1:1 Game now works wii music runs off of IOS35 after I patched the IOS35 it now works, Problem Solved

so instead of patching the system menu all you have to do, is take the CIOS rev7 wad unpack it using the tools i uploaded and rip out the app1 file and then take your wii ios's and unpack them, and inject the app.1 file into all of them including the IOS30 and thats it, thats all you need to do,

so all ios's should be patched in order to get all games to work? original and 1:1/patched backups?

 

[skawo96]

Great work.

 

[WiiBlaster]

correct!!! and patched\decrypted do not work

 

[ether2802]

Yeah but now I have to patch IOS:
17 - 21 - 33 - 35 - 36 - 37 - 55.....!!!

 

[WiiBlaster]

hea but easy to do this is a solution for those that dont want to re-burn there Wii Games and it works

 

[forbore]

Is it possible to make a tool to automate the process? It's takes quite a long time to patch all the CIos's...

 

[nicksasa]

lol i think you can patch an ios to use an specific ios even if its already an ios just look in the tmd

 

[WiiBlaster]

Not if you have someone do it then upload the files for you, all then you would have to do is install, but they can't be hosted here

 

[buby78]

im new to all this is there a small tutorial for noobs "me"

on how to do this

 

[forbore]

Lol... And are the chaces of getting bricked high? Is it possible to fix this with Starfall?

 

[WiiBlaster]

Well this is afar has i can take this,

We've managed to get backups working without the Backup loader, and we've managed to get Autoboot Disc working like wad manager autoboot, And came up with a solution for people that doesn't want to re-burn their wii games , hell i even formated my wii after doing this and i can still play backups, cause like i said its permanent, and Softmod my wii without Zelda TP just using a autoboot disc, Without a Mod-chip

you either have to solutions one patch your System menu wad to IOS249 and then patch your Wii Games to IOS249

or the longer route so you dont have to Re-burn your games is to patch all the wiis IOS's by ripping the app.1 file out of the CIOS rev7 and injecting it into the IOS's you will need to do this on all IOS's and it does the same thing except you dont have to patch the system menu wad that is after patching the IOS30 and it plays 1:1 Wii Copies non patched through the disc channel and it enables autoboot disc on a Unmodded wii, Well their you have it, I'm Done

you can either Do this yourself, on your own wii or you can wait for someone or Myself to release all the Patched IOS's for download

IMPORTANT
Make Sure to have the CIOS Rev7 installed before you do this or you will BRICK
Make sure to install starfall after doing this, cause without starfall the autoboot disc dont work, And best recommend to be on a 3.2 firmware when doing this

has anyone tried adding wiigators patched mios4 to the system after adjusting all the ios's to have the dip module(1.app)? if the dip module controls dvd command for both wii and gamecube reading (which it probably doesn't) then we would be able to load gc discs. as this was the only thing preventing them loading.

 

[Skarface05]

Thanks for all your efforts in testing this Wiiblaster. I will wait for a copy of the patched IOS's from you to download.


Lookin forward to trying this soon.

 

[forbore]

I'd just like to say that if you do release the CIOS's, please include 2 archives: 1 for the CIOSs, and one for the untouched IOSs. THat way we'll be able to get it back to normal if we want to. Good Job! Again...

wonderfull job wiiblaster, but i wonder... why aren't the decrypted games working? and would the ntsc ios's work on pal wii's? or are ios files region free?
