Homebrew for Wii 4.0ers!

[comboking]

Dang maybe the other exploit will be better

 

[Zolga Owns]

Oh great >__>

Luckily for us, the new exploit uses Brawl.
Edit: And no, that's not true, comex is working on something else right now, but he hasn't said anything about canceling work the other exploit.

 

[comboking]

Plz ignore this

Well it sounds real stupid to be canceling a project that you've been working on even back on March 31. Seriously, it has been proven that the BaNNeRBoMB exploit works with System Menu 4.0. So, instead of toying with us Comex, you should consider releasing the BaNNeRBoMB exploit as soon as possible.

I think you should consider holding back on telling a talented programmer what to do with his unpaid spare time.

 

[comboking]

wow he has a point there

You're probably right. Can't rush greatness after all. Plus, I was in a foul mood when I heard about this dilemma.

It's tough when you lost your HBC over 2 weeks ago, and the instant you hear about the exploit progress, it gets you all hyped up.

 

[Nintendo Maniac 64]

Wait... how did he lose his HBC? 4.0 doesn't remove it automatically...

I was trying out the SD Card Menu and accidentally erased the HBC from my Wii System Memory. Big mistake there since the HBC will not work through an SD card.

 

[comboking]

It won't darn it?

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

I checked back on some Youtube videos regarding the BaNNeRBoMB exploit. It seems like people are claiming that the exploit is fake, AGAIN.

Don't ask me why, but it seems that ever since Comex alternated to working on another exploit (Benzin is one known program that he's involved with), many people are bringing back the old "exploit is fake" routine.

 

[shadowtroop]

Does this new exploit have a name/video?

I would like BaNNeR Bomb to be released, It seems easier and you don't need the homebrew channel!

The so called *Working Title* Exploit is none other than the BaNNeRBoMB. However, some people hate that exploit name (such as Youtube member, TheRealTracePillars).

Anyway, Comex is a real busy guy, and he has more to work on than just BaNNeRBoMB. The exploit's release is still unknown, but some people lost hope when they got word that Comex is working on another program. Some are even claiming that the BaNNeRBoMB exploit is fake when there are many video sources confirming that the exploit is real.

TheRealTracePillars=IgglyBoo

To be honest, I think comex got bored. The only things I see that need fixing are the "Message 1", "Message 2" prompts. The people coming on IRC and bagering him about the release aren't helping either.

Also, comex doesn't have a wii. Thats right, he doesn't even have a wii to actually test on!

Just wait, he will eventually release it

 

[Zolga Owns]

I really could care less about the "Message" prompts.

 

[comboking]

Yea same here who cares about them

Use it to run a downgrader

Can Bannerbomb be used to run a downgrader to 3.2, where you can do either the twilight hack, or a different version of Bannerbomb?

 

[shumaru]

i saw the video , an my wii is 4.0u , but is update by accident , before that update mi wii are 3.2, can i do someting

 

[Face124]

err... Can I put the Homebrew channel on my SD card and run it through my Wii, without actually putting it on my Wii?

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Sadly no. The HBC has to be saved onto the Wii System Memory to work.

Wii System Menu 4.0 will NOT let you run the HBC through your SD card. Plus, although you can copy the HBC to your SD card, it doesn't let you copy the HBC from your SD card.

 

[Dantarion]

Can Bannerbomb be used to run a downgrader to 3.2, where you can do either the twilight hack, or a different version of Bannerbomb?

This will completly replace the twilight hack, even for versions <4.0. It is faster, doesn't require Zelda+Nunchuck+Copying a save. You can run a downgrader, but the downgrader may not work due to changes in 4.0. As far as I know, there is one version of BannerBomb, that works on at least 3.0u, 3.2u, and 4.0u.(I have personally tested those.)

err... Can I put the Homebrew channel on my SD card and run it through my Wii, without actually putting it on my Wii?

Technically, yes, you could, you would have to somehow get just the executable part of the hbc channel off the nand of a already softmodded wii I will have to try this. I don't think the HBC dol actually depends on being on the nand. But distributing it at all that way breaks the license, so thats not really a fix to commit to.

 

[ShadowLink84]

The downgrader does work.
You ca use any region changer to bring your wii back to 3.2 U since the Wii keeps a back up of its firmware.

WTF are you talking about. Do you even know if ARC works on 4.0? The wii doesn't keep a backup of its firmware, you have misunderstood the IOS system. If the wii had a backup of systemmenu 3.2 on it, ARC wouldn't need to connect to the internet.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Someone did make a downgrader that doesn't require cIOS. However, you need the HBC in order to use it.

Of course, if you're only gonna use BaNNeRBoMB to run Gecko OS, don't mess around with downgrading.

Question for Dantarion

Dantarion, you must know Comex right. So why hasn't it been released for 4.0, coz u said there were working versions for 3.2U, 3.4U and 4.0U

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

One thing that I seem to recall is that the message boxes had to be fixed up. Although, it shouldn't take THAT long to fix up that bug.

Also, don't forget that Comex is also working on a program called Benzin, which has absolutely nothing to do with the BaNNeRBoMB exploit.

We might've received this exploit much earlier if Comex actually had a Wii to test his exploit with. The wait is killing me, but I know that I have to stay patient.

By the way, Team Twiizers has made progress with BootMii. It could someday be the new solution for those who can't get the HBC if everything works as planned.

He just hasn't released it

Questions for Dantarion

1.I heard that Comex is working on a new exploit, which may be better than Bannerbomb, but when will it be released?

2.Is there a fix for the HBC Installer?

3.The link which could be used to generate report.txt (http://qoid.us/aaa2.zip) WAS dead, how come it works now?

Cheers, u r a legend.

 

[Wolf2222]

Hi All

What does that link do? I mean what is the down load used for?

 

[illinialex24]

Oh wow he doesn't have a Wii......

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

What does that link do? I mean what is the down load used for?

The link basically contains a channel that's to be used with the HBC, along with a Homebrew program. It's basically a program that checks to see if your Wii will work with Comex's BaNNeRBoMB exploit.

 

[comboking]

so u need homebrew channel for the wii? to use it that is

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Pretty much. No HBC, no way you could help Comex out. Hopefully, once BaNNeRBoMB is released to the public, we might not have to worry about installing the HBC if all we're using is Gecko OS.

 

[lcampoy8]

wow! i am sure good i have the homebrew channel

 

[Lord Viper]

☆ Great to here, though I'm not a fan of Brawl+ but I do like the region free games that is coming out latter in the future that I want to play. =P ☆

 

[Isatis]

How come nobody has thought of the Homebrew Launcher?

Seriously, that could replace the Homebrew Channel and it's quickly launchable by Bannerbomb and can run any boot.dol that's stored in apps.

I don't know how that'll work out. It'll obviously work differently than the HBC.

Normally, you can't run that program without the Twilight Hack or the HBC, and it's unknown if BaNNeRBoMB even works with it; there are no videos of the Homebrew Launcher being loaded by BaNNeRBoMB.

 

[comboking]

It doesn't work with 4.0. Or its just my wii. It keeps frezzing on the SD card menu

Edit: Do you have to have the homebrew channel for this the Homebrew Launcher?
