Hacking WAD Packer v0.0001 released!!!

[Elo]

well,i dont have any ntsc games

,.,.ive got a pal wii ..

 

[mark187]

Quick question... I've copied

*.app's and *.tmd from the /TITLE/00010001/xxxxxxxx folder
*.tik from /TICKET etc etc...

When I run the packer I get an error for a missing 00000000.app. Do I just use 00000000.app from /SHARED1 or do I need to do the SHA1 comparison & rename for that too?

I know how to do the rest, I'm just stuck on this one part.

Elo your wad installs fine on my wii, but i have a NTSC one so of course the channel doesn't load.

Can you delete it just fine?

Haven't tried. Which way do you want me to try? Wad uninstaller or just deleting the channel from settings?

good news, theirs a mario 64 ntsc out their in the privet torrents. so far they say it works.

 

[Elo]

yeah,well,you still need to check that the 000.app that it's looking for really is the 000.app in the SHARED1 folder..so just do a quick SHA1 comparisson

 

[Elo]

well,atm im trying to get a prog together (in java) that lets you select a .tmd file and then it tells you all the files needed for it (so you dont need to manually check every tmd file for the SHA1 hashes,then get the hashes from the SHARED1 files etc..) ..i'll see how far i get,shouldnt be to hard..basically the hardest i recon is the conversion from the file contents to hash..rest should be piece of cake
..now i just wish i had 10hrs of nonstop time and id have this done.. but RL..need to go shopping,missus wants to go to cinema tonight..so might take abit

That would be sweet. The app that is, not taking your wife to the cinema. Though I'm sure she's a very fine lady.

Any clue why?

Mind you, this happens with version 7 as well, not just 6 as shown above (just had that one on screen still).

Pilotwings 64 works in the n64 virtual console, with some graphics glitches

clarification: most menu text is unreadable, sea renders as white, effects render as solid colors, etc etc etc. I used whats probably an older version of the vc emulator though, might work better with say sin and punishment or kirby as i'd assume those emulators are a bit better

Just a quick question - as PAL VC games don't work on NTSC-U consoles, and we can assume this is the same vice-versa, anyone got any ideas as to whether NTSC-U VC games will work on an NTSC-J console? Is it a system issue, or a video display issue?

Cheers

Give it a try. Attempting to use a PAL game on A NTSC system just gave a blank screen on loading, no damage to the console and easily removed.

arakon: ure not using the correct .app files..
you shouldnt add 02-04 from Shared1..you should add the files that correspond to the correct SHA1 hashes as 02-04..
if you guys wait a while im trying to create a prog that will parse the .tmd file and tell you wich files to add..else you have to do it manually..

 

[Cocytean]

Yeah, I already installed a PAL game on my NTSC-J console - just got that simple 'power off' message. I was just wondering if maybe NTSC-u to NTSC-J might be more compatible? I'd try it myself now with the Super Mario 64 file that's floating around, but I'm stuck in the office 'til 8 tonight.

 

[hill]

Well I think I might of got paper mario to pack correctly, if anyone wants to test pm me. It's for NTSC.

 

[Edwii]
