| NOTICE |
|
| This homebrew application makes permanent changes to the Wii's NAND, thus, this application should be used with caution. It is recommended to have a NAND backup with either BootMii as boot2 or Priiloader with BootMii as IOS installed before proceeding with the usage of this application. |
Warning
PLEASE READ THE _WHOLE_ README BEFORE RUNNING THE INSTALLER.
THIS TOOL MODIFIES THE NORMAL BEHAVIOR OF THE WII SYSTEM AND THEREFORE CAN CAUSE UNEXPECTED PROBLEMS.
IT IS _HIGHLY_ RECOMMENDED TO INSTALL PRELOADER ONLY ON A WII WITH UNMODIFIED IOSs!!
YOU AGREE THAT YOU INSTALL THIS TOOL ON YOUR OWN RISK, THE AUTHOR CAN NOT BE HELD
RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY EITHER USING OR INSTALLING THIS TOOL.
What is Priiloader ?
Priiloader is a modded version of Preloader. just like preloader, Priiloader places it on boot sequence before the system menu. by this priiloader has the ability to:
- patch memory just like StartPatch or Preloader. hacks.ini should be on the sd root and can be found here
- save wii from banner & other kind of bricks that aren't ios/boot2/nand corruption related
Known Issues
- when dvd is inserted standby doesn't give blue light on wii mail (issue or unfixable?)
To do
- re-add an update function -> once i understand http parsing, which might take a loooong time
- fix known issues
- revert colors back to original
