    - Improved exception handling and other misc improvements.

    Hi,
    the tool looks great but it have a little problem.

    If i use the "Extract All" function the Wii NAND Extractor 0.1.2.0 didn't extract all files from any dump. If i extract the files manualy the tool has no problem with any file.

    EDIT:
    Now it work!?





    ps. Now we need a NAND Editor. [​IMG]

    That's my next goal for this program. It's already in progress.

    If there are any other ideas for nand tools, I'd love to hear it. A "title database" feature, to list installed titles and their versions, is also on the list.

    Woah!

    Thanks for this app dude. [​IMG]
    It's way more easier than setting up Segher's zestig/twintig/tachtig. [​IMG]

    Thanks!

    Ohhhhh, i can post a long list with ideas. [​IMG]


    This are my first ideas:
    NAND Converter like betwiin to convert a NAND from a Wii to another with output for boomii v02 and v03.

    Bootmii Converter to change a dump from/to bootmii v02v03.

    Information about boot1/boot2/sysmenu version.

    Brick-Check and fix-function for the sysmenu/IOS/settings.

    NAND Encrypter to encrypt and add a file/folder to a NAND dump. Output format should be in bootmii format for v02 and v03.

    NAND CleanUp to delete every personal settings like the login for the WLan and the Shop-Channel(title0010002\48414241\date\ec.cfg, wv24*).
    That help to use a dump on another Wii.

    Full NAND CleanUp to delete HBC, cIOS, ...

    Bootmii injection to add bootmii to a NAND dump.

    ...

    I was able to use the common-key.bin thats floating around in google land and the actual keys from my wii.. both had the same output when i extracted with wii nand extractor. Will this only work up-to a certain menu version? ie. 3.4U etc? Is viewing the key possible after the nand is extracted?

    Is there an app where we can add files or folders in the correct format to a dumped nand and restore to it then?

    Using the common key does not work, I tried it on several dumps I have of various wiis. You will get files but the contents are garbled. No use for it.

    The keys are not stored on the NAND
    You can get the keys by making a NAND dump with BootMii (which you should've already done)

    yes. ive been looking forward to an app that will encrypt a directory into a nand.bin. when you get that part done, you will help many people that have their key and no nand backup to restore.

    i had it but it wouldn't restore(still don't know why), so left it on my pc, but that got problems and had to go back to the store and get a new one, but lost all my data... (typic situation of life being a (censor) -_-)
    and i can still acces it and make a nand dump but it won't give me a keys.bin only a nand.bin
    if i were able to get my keys that way i would've allready been able to unbrick my first wii
    also looked at the complete dump process but that only shows 8 console id digits and 8 key digits and showmiiwads asks 32 digits so i'm 16 short
    that's why i'm searching for another way to find them
    but i'm guessing i'll have to be looking more into the infectus now

    thanx for the info

    hypothetically speaking, would the app still need to analyze an existing nand.bin dump for bad blocks and compensate for that when building a modified nand.bin?

    yes, bad blocks would need to be taken into account. but im thinking you could just do this
    >have a wii that you can get into bootmii but for some reason you want to restore a nand dump. too bad you dont have a nand dump to restore
    >use bootmii to take a nand dump and get the keys
    >use the yet-to-be-made pc app to annalize that dump or bootmii log to figure out the bad blocks, and then create a empty 528MB file and let the user install wads and other files to that blank nand. then use the keys to encrypt that nand into something that can be installed with bootmii
