alright ill try it now gimme a sec

hmm ..the problem is the "delivery system"
that sounds not that easy..

i dont think an dvd update will make it this time

They just need to find a way to update the chip i think.
And how would you update if not DVD? :S

i dont know..but if it would be a dvd..they could just have said..dvd..

but delivery system is strange

I think it was the Cyclowiz team that hinted that you could only update the EEPROM on the wiikey via DVD, nothing else - any really major change in functionality can't be done this way.

Then again maybe my memory is lying to me.

What about people with WiiFree chip ? Any news ?

 

[Disco]

I really really hope there will be some kind of ISO patcher, 'couse I have some home made chip with wiikey fw on it, so I can't update (yes they screwed me, they said they are gona install a wiikey in my wii)...

 

[katsuce]

I'm glad the wiikey team guys are not as unforgiving as I am, because after all those posts saying that they should go to hell and such, they're still fixing compatibility issues...


I'll make a donation as soon as I will be able to (especially since my original wiikey only cost me 20€, soldering included)



and I'm glad for cyclowiz owners too, everybody, keep up your good work

If it's homemade then you should be able to reuse the wires they ran to a new modchip like a cyclowiz. With the wires already run the solder job would be far easier. Cut your losses and go with a product with good support.

it worked!

thank you malacai

Well, I don't know how to solder etc. They did this in local shop here (Croatia), and I allready had a fight with them becouse they screwed my original Wii, so they gave me a new one.... I don't wanna have busines with them anymore...

it worked!

thank you malacai

So what make the CycloWiz so simple to update and not the WiiKey? I guess it looks like a more complicated chip, anyone care to explain?

And would it be possible to make a program like a Brick Blocker that kills the part of the code that causes the whole problem? I know it's encrypted but then how did they work out the brick blocker?

 

[Redsquirrel]

well if wiikey dont sort it soon, then they wont sell wiikey anymore. If their chip can not be used on any new games whats the point of buying wiikey over cyclowiz etc

I just think the Wiikey people are more cautious about releasing updates....look at the last update, it was finished month before release but they wanted to beta test it to the max!

Yeh I think the Wiikey teams bets a bit of a rough deal... Their chip does exactly what it is meant to; play back-ups of Wii games, with partial region-free. Then they released the update to fix the audio-streaming problem.

I think the funniest post I read after that was (paraphrasing):

"Yes!!!!1!!! Now my Wii is the Gamecube I always wanted!!!1!11!!!"

It is in their best interests to sort this copy protection thing and I believe that they will... Give it a little time. Personally, I'd much rather an update that has been tested and found to be stable than a rushed, half-assed update...

QFT, I wouldn't like a messed-up update to brick my wii (especially when I can't send it back to the US)

[07.10.29] Update on Super Mario Galaxy Issue

In addition to the announcement made earlier today about Super Mario Galaxy, we are pleased to confirm that we have now identified the copy protection method responsible and created a fix.

In order to guarantee stability, we have had to make a fairly major change to the way the code works. While all tests have proven positive, the challenge now is to create a delivery system to allow existing Wiikeys to be updated.

As ever, we appreciate your patience and support while we do this.
