Hacking Wiiscrubber 1.1

[Dack]

Before I release it I'm after someone to test a few things for me.

What I am after is someone who's got the full ISO of Smash Brothers. The reason is that I don't have a copy of it to test and, as it's the only DL disc at present it would make sense to actually check to see if the changes I've put in actually support it

As there are now three ways of scrubbing then it would also be good to test if that is supported correctly too.

As well as unscrubbing it.

If anyone is interested then just drop a PM or post on here.

I do have a SSBB DVD9 ISO but got no more DL DVDs...But I can test if it is scrubbable at least or the program crashes when you try to scrub SSBB.

 

[aardvarks]

got loads of dl disc's an the iso to,wot do you want me to do?

 

[Dack]

Just PM'd you both thanks.

Not interested in the writing out yet - just in the 'doesn't crash my software', and that I read it correctly (and create some files as they should be).

Hey Dack I'll help you I have ssbb.iso and dl discs to test just send me the program .

 

[DarkLG]

Hey I'll help you I have the game on my Pc and Dual Layer discs to test it.

 

[Dack]

I've sent it out to two people and that should be enough for now thanks.

I don't want too many people seeing my failures if it does go wrong

Thanks to everyone who offered

And as a quick bit of data to those who are interested:
Ea Boogie - UK release =
Version 1.0 scrubbing 940 MB
Trucha scrubbing 955 MB
Version 1.0a scrubbing 1.03 GB

and 1.1 scrubbing?

 

[Dack]

1.1 just gives the choice of which mode to use as well as an unscrub option (based on dif files) - as well as bigger disc support.

The reason for the Trucha scrub is because of something else I am playing with

From testing reports:
1. Bigger disc support works
2. Unscrubbing works
3. Trucha scrubbing has errors

- in that it doesn't find ALL the empty space on SSBB.

So a bit more work for me to fix it.

Great news! Just out of curiosity, how small does Brawl shrink to?

 

[Dack]

It only takes it down by about 700-800 Meg

It only takes it down by about 700-800 Meg

Well its still a WHOLE CD's space

 

[Dack]

Actually there looks like there are two padding files on there too - each of 200 Meg.

Too bad... two days not looking for WiiScrubber and now I find out, that you already found some beta testers...

But I'm glad you're still on it

Actually there looks like there are two padding files on there too - each of 200 Meg.

You're right. But those files shouldn't be a problem, since they compress to like... well, nothing (less than 100 kb). Or does the encryption make them less compressable?

 

[seraph787]

I was just wondering in the next version could you add a feature that zips or rars on fastest compression setting automatically while it is compiling the iso.

Encountered a bug when extracting the Title BGM from Link's Crossbow Training.

Here is what I got:

Here is what is correct:

The other streamed files extracted perfectly fine.

My main issue with Wiiscrubber is that the Japanese release groups adore it, and they scrub all their releases with it, causing them to get nuked ... which is why we don't get a lot of 'scene' Japanese Wii releases, right now ...

thebobevil where did you get that info from? ? I didn't think that was the case but could be wrong.

Is that using the 'extract a file' option in Scrubber or is it using a different app to extract after scrubbing?

Reason I ask is that I'm trying to identify where the error in my code is - the scrubbing side or the extraction side.
