Homebrew Wiiware, VC and Homebrew Forwarder ISO's

[luck_gh0st]

most of my forwarders would reboot the wii at first then i switched to IOS 222 in WiiFlow...

 

[luck_gh0st]

Im not an artist but its better than nothing and the kids liked...

 

[Skater4599]

These look really good actually i like them its perfect, i just wish they were HQ size but these are alot better than giant ? marks on the back ^^

 

[luck_gh0st]

yeah the kids liked them but theproblem is finding high quality images and the text is a pain
I mad a blaster master over drive cover but it looks like crap....
custom sound working on VC forwarders by CustomizeMii - injecting wav file into wad before using Iso2Wad... my Double Dragon and Mystical ninja sound pretty good

 

[luck_gh0st]

and here's some really LAME ones

 

[Skater4599]

Thanks again luck_gh0st ill be using these for sure and when i get some time ill start making more using yours as template

 

[luck_gh0st]

i have an easier time using gimp rather than photoshop....

 

[luck_gh0st]

ok all my forwarders work except for Castlevania Rebirth NTSC-U. I read that it is incompatable with Trii force I think I will see if patching the IOS to 199 will work.. I doubt it will work.

Does anyone know if the PAL version works?

 

[Skater4599]

Hmmm my castlevania ReBirth NTSC-U works just fine, i played it the other day, the wiki says its incompatible yes but i tested for myself and it worked just fine

 

[luck_gh0st]

Hey what are your settings on Castlevania? Someone else on a thread in Canada said that Castlevania works for them too..
Also Eduardo the Samurai Toaster is supposed to not work but it seems fie for me......

are you using IOS199 I'm using it for all of my forwarders...


Heres an UNO cover i found.

so here are some forwarders WW/VC forwaders ISOs and dols to be put in triiforwarders on SD card

 

[Skater4599]

I dont even have IOS 199 on my wii, i have 249 installed rev 19 base 57 and i have rev 17 in 250 and all my triiforwarder dols load from 250

Using wiiflow r41 on fat partition for wiiware iso's and everythings from the HDD, i dont even have triiforce program installed on my wii anymore lol so its all default settings.

My nand dump is my own wii i did minimal/smallest nand dump with bluedump on menu 4.1U and i deleted all the channels on there before installing wiiware wads, dont know if that matters or not.

P.S - Thanks for the covers man, keep it up

 

[luck_gh0st]

..well Castlevania Rebirth - NTSC-U and PAL neither one worked for me but the Jap version was just fine so its cool not very much Jap text anyway.
I got ios199 because people were having problems with running sneek and triforce and 249 rev19 so i have 249 with 57 as base and i use 250 to install wads i complied a rev30 some version of wiiflow on my macbook but i saw a rev41 dol on their googlecode page so i will try that later



I strive really hard to NOT have little (discolored) triangles on the corner

an english UNO

Let's Catch NTSC-U doesn't seem to work either...

Good stuff spayrosam

I've written a little program that will fill in the repetitive info in Partition Builder / WiiScrubber and cut down heaps of user input (saves a bundle of time)

If you run 3 ISO's Buddy before starting 3 ISO's studio, anyone could automate the whole process of wad creation with a few lines in a batch file

/EDIT

I forgot to mention that, at least for now, it must be run from the root folder of 3 ISO's main exe file.

New Version with 'Auto-Run' option (runs silently also)

 

[luck_gh0st]

Right on man! thanks!

Great work!

it seems it does not work with XP.
after partitionbuilder nothing else happens..

Great work!

I created it few months ago

Spoiler

 

[luck_gh0st]

WOW! I like! Everybody feel free to modify my images however you like

@spayrosam - it doesn't work for you in win xp?
I have 64bit win 7 on the first partition of this computer and it didn't work for me on that BUT I have a vbox installation of tiny win xp sp3 on my Linux Partition and it works just fine (strange?)
I liked WAD2ISO but after i installed the plus version my iso's stopped having custom sound and had no sound but the buddy script fixes my sound probs.... well i guess i'll head back on over to the sneek thread and see if i can't frustrate myself more.....

@Tristar Mind working with us to make 3isos_buddy compatible with v5? Or sharing the source?

We were working to modify the partition builder source to do that for us but noone with good enough C++ knowledge has offered to help.

Anyways, our thread is here now xD

BTW, v5 is x64 compatible xD

I wish i would have just made full covers instead of my front only covers lol.. but it would have taken forever for me to finish a complete pack that way. The full covers with the question marks/improper binders are simply place holders til a proper full cover is made. I'll keep making a few full covers... they just take SOooooo long to do and I'm somehow never quite happy with them.

Here is a few I've been playing around with... I should have a lot more incomplete files laying around but i do so much photoshop work its hard to keep track of all my incomplete stuff.

Links to the HQ versions of them I upped to wiitdb.
World of Goo HQ
Excitebike HQ

Anyhow keep up all the awesome work guys! I'm hoping eventually we'll have kickass full HQ covers for every WiiWare/VC title out there!

@mugotu
3 ISO's Buddy will remain compatible with 3 ISO's Studio. At the moment I have hard-coded the directories into the script
I am toying with the idea of it discovering / amending the required paths for itself

@spayrosam
Arghh! I'll look into the XP problem (I've gotta dig out my XP disc first

)


@luck_gh0st
Thanks for pointing that out - It's fixed now

I was just thinking If you could make it capable of using command line arguments
(and if no arguments are passed revert to old directories) that would be great because we can move the make-iso folder anywhere we want.

v5 has a different path each time partition builder is called and there is (atm) no "game" folder. But I guess I can use the old game directory just for generating the partition if there is no way of adding that support.

It would just be much easier if we could call it from our batch with the right paths as arguments like this:
"programs\3 ISO's Buddy.exe" "Wads\Alien Storm_MAYE\ISO\"
