WarioWare D.I.Y. Editor

I have started to create a save tool and mio editor/viewer for WarioWare D.I.Y. in java. Currently, it can open wii and ds saves to extract mio files, edit game/record/comic/manga metadata, show the preview picture for games, play records, view comics/mangas and the next version will be able to unlock all games/records/comics/achievements for ds saves. I have written the back-end code for the music editor, but I really cannot come up with a good interface for it, plus my current interface would be extremely tedious to implement (tons of radio buttons). If anyone could write something in java that looks roughly like the D.I.Y. music editor I would appreciate it. Zip file has the runnable jar and the source. (Yes I know the source is probably horribly organized)

 

Next version also might have soundfont support. Attached is this song:
using a fancy soundfont.

 

Maybe. For that a dropdown list might be better. All unlockables EXCEPT the forum use a nice single byte = one unlockable system.

 

I only know how to deal with the actual game/record/comics and save files.

 

With the whole push to get all the Nintendo WiFi DLC stuff gathered, I thought I may work on this a bit more. Mainly, I would like to get WarioWare D.I.Y. Showcase injection working (I figure its the easiest way to work with .mio files for those without a flash cartridge and DeSmuME's NAND save support is still a bit iffy). However, I need help interpreting the Wii saves. It appears that the Wii saves use a similar index system to the DS version, but there are five files rather than one to work with. SYS_1 and SYS_0 appear to have index/checksum information of some sort, where SYS_1 is a backup of SYS_0 (these may also have been used as a cache for Wii24 connect distribution of content but I'm not sure). Next, there's the GDATA, RDATA, and MDATA files for games, records, and manga (comics) respectively. These each have a mess of bytes in the beginning I can hardly interpret. The first four bytes look like some sort of checksum followed by the header "MIOR", followed by a lot of bytes I have no idea about (without PizzaBoy's work on CrygorTool, this would be nowhere near where it is currently. I still don't understand the indexes that DIY uses. I hate Nintendo's love of checksums, but its certainly nicer than their new love and obsession with encryption). Also on a side note, I wish that Yasu who made miotool and mioedit would release the sources to those tools, as he seems to have figured out the sprite index system for games. Annoying Japanese devs and their proprietary stuff

A GUI for the music editor would also be nice. Ultimately, it would be neat if the games could actually played using this, but Nintendo uses a lot of weird index/offset stuff to save space.

 

Well, I got Showcase savegame injection working. Just extract your save with SaveGameManagerGX, point my utility at GDATA, MDATA, or RDATA (for games, comics/mangas, and records respectively), inject/extract/delete what you want, and install it back with SaveGameManagerGX. Note: Showcase will yell at you for "corrupted" files since I couldn't figure out checksums. Just select OK, it will only display it the first time the modified save is used. Nothing will be deleted, and your modifications should've stuck. Yes you have to have a softmodded Wii to use this.

 

Lot more usable now: https://db.tt/wK88jN1I

If anyone wants their content archived in mio format, either send me the saves or load your DS/extracted Wii saves with that jar and extract them yourself and send them. I'm working on an unofficial update to this giant pack of stuff: http://vixynya.blog6.fc2.com/

 

Good idea. And I looked into the slot 1 issue, had some bad sanity checks. Fixed now. Also, I never considered the Dolphin method. That's a lot better for the paranoid people who don't want to mod their Wii's

 

Added warning message if wrong type or invalid MIO file is selected.

 

Yeah I should probably post an update soon. As far as I can tell with what I have now everything appears to work so I'll post an update and updated source tomorrow. A basic android version is also available for use with DraStic.

The source currently uploaded is an utter mess. The new one simplifies things a bit. (E.g. all save related stuff is in a package called saveutils)

 

Source and update. Chinese and English versions included.
