Wiimote4.svg GameCube Controller Loads files from the Front SD slot

There are some slight problems with 0.1a3. First, on the channel list, you may get two listings of a channel. Choose the first one. Second, the elf file is named WiiMU.elf. You must rename it to boot.elf for it to work. These issues have already been brought to attention and will be fixed in a4

WiiMU is now maintained by SquidMan again.

WiiMU is a PoC "Channel Launcher" app for the Wii. It eventually aims to completely replace the System Menu in functionality. At the moment it is quite far from that goal, but it does have a start. It currently:

  • Lists all installed Channels. (Does not include those with only a ticket)
  • Allows selection of the Channel to load.
  • Allows launching of a disc.
  • Allows return to loader.
  • Allows return to real System Menu.
  • Has a NAND Dumper. Thanks to Redbird who released YaWnD, I was able to add this to the release. This is NOT my code, it is Redbirds.
  • Allows you to look at all save files on your Wii. Copying does not work yet.
  • Allows you to look at the configuration settings from your Wii.
  • Has a Main menu. Contains Launch Disc, Launch a channel, dump NAND, return to Wii Menu, browse save files, look at configurations, and return to Loader.
  • You can control the menus with every Wii Remote and every GameCube controller

Please note that at the moment it DOES NOT REPLACE ANY SYSTEM FILES! It may eventually get to that point, but currently it is far from it. Only stable versions will be released with source.

Version 3 is out! New additions include:

  • Fixes a bug in which certain users couldn't get the list of channels.
  • Adds save file browsing. Copying does not work yet.
  • Adds a configuration viewer. Will eventually allow changing.
  • Adds launching a disc.
  • You can control the menus with every Wiimote and every GC controller
