[ALPHA] Disc Channel Backup Loader

[TomDaChamp]

Hello, i'm not new to the Wii Scene, and/or the DS scene. ads1212 may remember me. I used to be an active member of the DS Scene.

So, i got my hands on the source for v0.3FULL Version. Now, i am working on getting the backup's to load onto the console's home disc screen. In doing this, the disc screen, may either load the actual data (opening video/music) or a default tune/PRESS START video logo.

Now please stay tuned for more on my developing program, it is not in ALPHA testing yet, so please stay tuned. More info, and a detailed .txt will be released soon.

So nobody is amped?

hmm, so i finsihed a quick little details i've confirmed a name TDCBOOT

RTF arent able to be up'd, so i'm just putting them into a code.

V0.0.1 TDCLOAD (Disc Channel Boot)

- Full Requirements -

Twilight Hack
Homebrew Channel
WAD Manager
Nintendo Wii (v3.3below)

; How does it work?

Install the IOS via it's DOL.
The new IOS will allow the system to recognize a varied amount of games (around 50) to be read using the disc channel

Install the DISC Channel BETA.wad this will overwrite the existing disc channel, with a new one. Also including a small 120x780 banner.

Execute the TDCLOAD.dol, from the Homebrew channel

Press + to continue through the varied amounts of text (warnings and such).
This install will allow the ISO to load through the disc channel, and also through the homebrew channel.

- FAQ

- How does this work.

The actual details will not be released until further notice.

- Do i need to own the game to play it on my wii.

Yes you do, you need to backup your own games, and re-burn them onto DVD-R

- Do DVD+R and DVD+RW work now?

DVD+R have been confirmed to work with TDCLOAD, also the strain on the lazer wont happen, due to it running through the disc channel.

- I've upgraded to v3.4+ what do i do?

The TDCLOAD will be releasing a new TwilightLOAD fix, that will downgrade any system FW to 3.3USA (europe will NOT be released).

- Is this illegal

P2P Software is indeed ILLEGAL in the USA, but i live in canada where P2P Software is legal to download. So i only allow CANADIANS to use this program.

Woot! dvd+r works!
so do we just do the usual, patch it, IMGburn, and all the other stuff?
If you need any testers I'll try.

[TomDaChamp]

No patching needed. It will replace the DISC Channel. Either i think giving us two or one disc channel. I will be releasing IOS-000CUSTOM. This will give automatic wii updates through the WiiConnect24, i'm trying to run a data server atm so this will be possible. May not be fully implemented untill full release.

[TomDaChamp]

Yes, the program has moved into a closed beta.

Look forward to a release end of january?

From dec 21 - jan 10 we will be taking a break.

I'll be interested to beta this.
You should look into making GCN games playable.

Version 0.2 ALPHA should contain GCN Playability. But we arent sure through what disc we will be using.

WE are on CLOSED BETA 0.1 atm. So, we may not release public, untill v 1.0.

Well,gamecube iso's are 1.3gb.
So, you would need to use dvd's.

Well, can I get in on this Beta?
