Yeah, the title was so promising, hahahaha

What a piece of junk!

 

[Sotoro]

I'm sure that we will see a working release in the near future

anyone with the nand dump can find the apps in the /SHARED1/ folder with this hash, upload it and send me the link in a private message?

theres a WAD packer v0.0004 now, not sure what the changes are. There are VC wads that are working after install, but as mentioned earlier, probably safer to wait for consistant and risk-free usage.

 

[1guana]

hitting this alot

You have taken the wrong .APP file from you SHARED1 folder. See my posting here.

Everyone on there is having the same problems. The guy coding this obviously has no idea what he's doing. If you use it, don't cry when your Wii gets bricked.

 

[bennydigital]

has anyone even bricked a wii with this yet? lol
Don't turn on your wii with the wiimote you might brick it!

 

[Sotoro]

Let us wait for the real deal and close this topic

Yeah, I've almost packed Paper Mario, but it doesn't seem to be including all the .apps... The resulting .WAD is only 9 megs big.

you must include all the apps, from 000000000.app to 00000000XX.app with no skips

Actually, not all games have a consistent string of .app's, some revised games have .app skips. You can tell the correct .app's from checking in the tmd.X though.


Actually, does anyone know the 8-digit name of title.tik? (if there is one when extracted from the Wii...) I think I may know how to solve this.

for all I know my fs dump is wrong, most of my vc dumps jump from 00000001.APP to 00000005.APP in their respective title directory, and I'm filling in 02-04 from /SHARED1/ (which I assume is the proper thing to do?)

You can't simply copy the missing files from your SHARED1 folder! The missing filename doesn't match with the file from your SHARED1 folder. You have to check it by the SHA1 hash.

For example:
- your CONTENT folder misses the 00000002.APP.

Open the TITLE.TMD with a HEX editor. At the end of the file you will find something like this:
00 00 00 02 00 02 80 01 00 00 00 00 00 45 94 0F F5 DD 17 B3 20 0D D4 D6 BE 2B 25 B5 77 C9 9E 5F 94 1B 73 24

4 bytes cid
2 bytes index (underlined)
2 bytes type
8 bytes size (italic)
20 bytes SHA1 hash (bold)

(for every .APP file there is such a 36 bytes block)

In this case, you have to copy the file with the SHA1 hash (F5 DD ...) from your SHARED1 folder (which can be f.e. 00000021.APP) to your folder and rename it to 00000002.APP (accordingly to the given index).

you can use this tool to get the sha sums http://sourceforge.net/project/downloading...;use_mirror=dfn

(you have to open cmd go to the folder where you unpacked it and type
"java -jar jacksum.jar -a sha [path to 000*.app]")

it really works. Try it out

Well seeing as I currenlty see 0 people having dumped any without succes , as well as m self not getting any wad to work like it should ... I guess it might be better to let the pro's ... (Waninkoko, bushing , segher etc) look into wad packing

 

[jayparadox]

I've already said that you should leave all this to the experts in making channels. Check elotrolado.net and you will see I've made loads of channels successfully without this packer.

error when i try to install the wad... ticket error...
