Cios USB beta 3 (IOS 222) and WBFS Tool (for Linux)

Post by Aizen »

Hello everyone :)

So here's the update made by "kwiirk" to our nice USB Cios beta 3.

Available since last night, I don't know the improvements compared to the second beta, but I'll edit the message once we know a bit more :).

cIOS USB beta3 with DIP module (IOS222):

WBFS Tool (linux only, sorry):
https://www.zshare.net/info.html?579429 ... c1c6c29abc

So here, I'm still gathering some information about this miracle product, but it seems to be a simple file that would let you take your pc isos that include linux (Mac might possibly work) and, via this file previously installed on the HDD, dump them to install them on the HDD, in order to play them on your wii, without dumping via waninkoko's USB loader v1.

It'll have the same use as wiiscruber, meaning only taking up the filled space on the iso

Source focused on the WBFS Tool: https://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=144250&st=19

Google translation of the WBFS Tool tutorial : https://translate.google.fr/translate?u ... r&ie=UTF-8

The WBFS Tool is still in testing phase, so improper use and handling on your part could cause irreversible damage to your wii (scary, huh :p). So you have two choices:

-Follow the tutorial carefully (which really isn't rocket science) and don't do any "fancy" manipulations.

-Wait for an update that will surely be more effective, and less focused on linux

This news already came out on the forum https://www.tgames.fr/en/wii/hbwii/cios-usb2-beta3-t1295.html ;)

oops sorry, it's not the same news, you're offering "with DIP module" :?

Thanks ;)

Yes don't worry :p

Also at the same time I'm editing the message, there's a duplicate news :)

Otherwise you're welcome :oops:

being able to transfer your dumped isos via USB loader v1 by waninkoko, onto your pc that runs linux <-- hum you're making my day here, I'm going to test that right away

I edited that sentence, afraid people might think it works both ways ^^

PC-> HD with WBFS tool -> Wii

Because originally it was Wii > HD with WBFS tool -> PC

But well you got it all right otherwise :p

There, I tested this WBFS.

What I managed to do, lose all my data :? Which isn't a big deal since it's a hard drive I dedicated to the wii and the usb loader.

Otherwise I still managed to see my partition, see the files and their size as well as the size of my partition and the free space.

But when I want to transfer an iso (I only have one available), it starts for 2 seconds then stops.
edit: I just tried with another iso, it stops at 25% this time

Otherwise, this WBFS is very promising.

There's a line in the readme.txt that intrigues me (not tested):
*build Homebrew Channel directories for all the games in your partition
This will actually make a directory for each game with the DISCID of the game,
copy the icon.png and boot.dol of the current directory, and make a meta.xml with the name of the game
./wbfs mkhbc
Then copy all the directories in the apps directory of your sdcard.

Do you understand it like me: it creates a directory with an icon.png and boot.dol to copy into the sd's apps folder to boot the game via the HBC.

Thanks for the news, even though I have two complaints :D:

_Your presentation feels a bit heavy, with all these colors, save them for the titles, that's enough (no bold either)
_Two posts for the news might have been better, I don't know ^^
À votre service !
