Important notes
This is a beta release, please use cautiously and make sure you have a back-up of your savegame file.
This application has been mainly tested for US version, and has not been tested for the other two regional versions (Europe/Australia: Animal Crossing Let's Go to the City; Japan: Machi e Ikouyo Doubutsu no Mori).
Summary
DiiLC is a simple application to download and insert the DLC (downloadable content) or HDLC (hacked downloadable content) into Animal Crossing City Folk savegame file (use Waninkoko's savegame extractor for extracting savegame file). This application searches the DLC and HDLC files from the distributing servers. It could download and insert three DLCs (for US, EU, and JP regions) and one HDLC that are available at the time when the application is running.
Overview
After downloading and inserting the available HDLC at that time, each character in the game will get a letter with a present from Pete. Yes, Pete is now cooperating with this wiibrew maker. And yes, he is doing it without getting additional bells. So this application follows a similar mechanism for getting DLC in the game. This means that each character has to receive the letter/present from Pete, otherwise the town will not be ready for the next DLC (when it becomes available). Below is a set of pictures to show currently available HDLC being distributed by Pete in the game.
For DLC, this application only inserts the DLC data into appropriate areas in the savegame file. So do not expect to see Pete in front of your character's house giving your character a letter with a present after downloading/inserting DLC with this application.
If the designated area of the savegame file has already contained other DLC or HDLC, this application gives such an information, and automatically replaces that DLC/HDLC with the one that has just been downloaded. For each DLC/HDLC being inserted, users could see the name and corresponding hexcode (in square brackets) of that item.
Usage
At the beginning, the user could choose three actions by pressing different buttons on Wiimote:
 |
Action |
|---|---|
 |
Downloading from the server the available DLC (from three regions) and inserting them into savegame file. |
 |
Downloading from the server the available HDLC and inserting it (along with the letter) into savegame file |
 |
Exiting without downloading DLC or HDLC |
Once the choice is made, the application will simply run and provide information along the way and then exit by itself. Then users could use Waninkoko's savegame installer application for installing the file back from SD card to Wii.
Setting file content
To change the directories and filenames for savegame and temporary files, a file called dlcsetting.xml is automatically created in the SD card main folder (unless it is already there). This feature allows perhaps other regions' players to try using this application as well as to use other type of savegame file extractor/installer application.
It has the following default content (user could change it using any Wii homebrew text editor or PC text editor application):
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<setting>
<savesdir>
<sdirname>sd:/WIISAVES/RUUE</sdirname>
<sfilename>RVFOREST.DAT</sfilename>
</savesdir>
<tempdir>
<tdirname>sd:/</tdirname>
<tfilename>TEMP.DAT</tfilename>
</tempdir>
</setting>
