great work, time to check it out.

 

quite impressive sir. I was wondering if a tool like this would come out for this game at some point.

 

Quick question: you're putting in the ability to unlock all songs/games/comics/medals in the next version, right? Can you make it so we can choose which songs/games/comics/medals to lock/unlock instead of just unlocking all at once? Like with radio buttons? (I think that's what they're called)

 

I wanted to ask a question about hacking Warioware DIY. Is it possible to remove or silence the clicking/squeeky sounds you get whenever you touch a button in warioware DIY?

 

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.

 

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/

 

Actually, you do not need a Wii soft modded to do so.You just need a Dolphin emulator on your computer.
Steps:
1.Copy the save data of WWDIY showcase from Wii to SD card
2.Plug your SD card into your computer and use Dolphin's inject save data function.(Browse for sd:/private/wii/title/WA4E/data.bin)
*WA4E could also be WA4P or WA4J depending on the game's region*
*BE SURE TO MAKE A COPY OF YOUR CLEAN sd:/private/wii/title/WA4E/data.bin IN CASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG!!*
3.Browse for Dolphin Emulator/Wii/title/00010001/57413445/data for GDATA, MDATA, and RDATA, then edit them.
(The above works for US version, 57413445 could be 5741344a or 57413450 if game was JAP or PAL, not confirmed though)
THANKS FOR HELP FROM leseratte, it has been know that the 8-digit numbers are actually
4 Hex ASCII numbers
Check them out here: http://www.asciitable.com
4.Extract all of your save data with Dolphin.
5.Check the directory of your Dolphin.exe, and you should see a folder named'private.'
6.Browse for private/wii/title/WA4E/data.bin then copy it right over SD:/private/wii/title/WA4E/data.bin
*WA4E could also be WA4P or WA4J depending on the game's region*
7.Plug your SD card back into your Wii, delete the save data for WWDIY on your console(MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP IN CASE SOMETHING SCREWS UP!)
Copy the WWDIY save from the SD card to your Wii
8. Enjoy!
Plus: You can get a WAD of WWDIY showcase to show off you games on a PC!
(The region of the WAD must match that of your save data!)
Edit: Some data do get corrupted. The Hi scores of DIY games were gone, and I somehow can't inject games into the 1st slot on Wii save(Record&Comic not tested)

 

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

 

Thanks so much for making this! I've wanted to mess around with DIY's saves for so long.

I've been poking around in the source for a few minutes, trying to see how the save is read/written. Specifically, the game's checksums interest me.
However, the code is kinda confusing from a first glance. Could you help a little here? A flow chart or inheritance tree would work fine.

 

Source and update. Chinese and English versions included.
