Wii System Update warning
Trucha exploit possibly patched

It has been reported that a new Wii System Update is available that combats the current Trucha exploit, rendering modified games unplayable. For this reason we currently recommend you NOT UPDATE your Wii if prompted.

This is not yet confirmed reliably so stay tuned for more information, or join in the discussion in the following thread.

Thanks for this, man.

Was planning on updating and playing my Wii later tonight.

That sucks

 

[Shuny]

We need a custom firmware now.

Real bad.

It hasn't been confirmed yet.

Theres always hope.

edit: or has it been confirmed?

How does wiibrew know for sure?

Just warned the Son, He's playing Trucha'd brawl right now on our PAL Wii.
Might turn off the Wii's net connection for a while just to be safe.

Okay, how about this: fixing the signing bug requires two files to be changed in an update. They released one of the two files.
wiibrew(Note this is NOT the update from a couple of days ago that was related to Wiiware. That one is confirmed as `safe`.)

Glad I updated between the Wiiware update and this one. I'm in the "just right" zone, right before dangerous update, right after good update.

Update as early as possible, I always say.

Now I get Wiiware and Trucha.

I was like "i'll apply that latest update on my wii later today, just in case" and now i see these threads about new update which kills everything. Really fun.

yeah that's exactly what i was thinking. I updated because I expected nintendo to fix the bugs in a later update

 

[Jackreyes]

but what about when the next update comes...
I have the between updates firmware atm but... what about when we need a new update.

use freeloader to skip the update

 

[ItsMetaKnight]

freeloader doesnt work nemore i hreard

 

[kedest]

freeloader doesnt work nemore i hreard

the new wii freeloader still works atm.
so don't install any online updates and when a disc contains an update, use freeloader to skip it.
that should work while we wait for custom firmwares

[Bob Evil]

I'm on 3.2E, plus I had both updates that didn't change the version number, and the update from US Brawl ... I'm on a PAL machine ... and my Freeloader still works fine.

 

[Jackreyes]

Wait...
So you're saying you have the new update?
And the freeloader still works?

 

[Maktub]

Is that "rendering your hax unplayable" a real screen?
Hax... wtf

 

[Jackreyes]

Of course not...

Seriously... Nintendo aren't that stupid, people would see it and pull the plug.
