Hacking Wii gc-mode dump2usbgecko

[solut]

Hi.
I' am introducing WII GC-MODE DUMP2USB v1.0 by solut

With this tool you can dump GC and WII SL+DL disks via an USB-Gecko
to your PC. The 64KB Block bandwith of the FTDI-Chip is completely used during dumping.
So, I think, it's a bit faster than the other USB-Gecko dumper.

Please notice:
This tool is Wasabi compatible! Me and many other Wasabi users had the problem of dumping a whole SL-DVD.
The dumping stopped before reaching the last sectors. I coded out a workaround for this.

This tool was only tested with my WII (D2C Wasabi modded).
The console output could be nicer, but it works .

Usage:
Load the "GC_DUMP2USB.dol" via your prefered method. Once running on your WII start the PC-Dump-Tool
"PC_DUMP2USB.exe" with the Iso path as parameter.

If you want it you can get it here:

Enjoy...

Sorry... but most people don't have a USBGecko, nor do I believe they'd trust software from a single post...

Im sorry, but there is no point in this application, the USB Gecko has its own software which dumps Wii/GC SL and DL Discs, all at usbgecko.com

solut nice to see you have done a workaround for Wasabi users
with a usbgecko.I have got a wiikey so i will stick with the gecko client but i see you have put it up on the usbgecko site nice one that will help a lot of Wasabi users.

peoplw shouldnt be put off by the one post i think hes just made an account here, but yes it is kinda useless people should stop making so many backup creators

 

[memorris]

There was only one way to backup with the usbgeco and people
with Wasabi mod chip where having some problems with it now with this they can use the usbgecko to backup.If nintendo replaces broken and scratched disc there is no need for backup creators.

Hi.

I think if the app just could help one more guy out there it makes sense to make it public.
Nuke (www.usbgecko.com) loaded it up on his server. So, I think, the app is accepted by the right guys.
