Forecast Channel allows weather reports and forecasts to be downloaded onto the console from the Internet via the WiiConnect24 service. Since the official servers for this were discontinued on June 28, 2013, [[RiiConnect24]] has since bought this back.
Forecast Channel allows weather reports and forecasts to be downloaded onto the console from the Internet via the WiiConnect24 service. Since the official servers for this were discontinued on June 28, 2013, [[RiiConnect24]] has since bought this back.
The data files are RSA-2048-SHA1 signed, and the LZ10 compressed content begins at 0x140. A Kaitai file documenting the file structure can be found here: [https://github.com/RiiConnect24/Kaitai-Files/blob/master/Kaitais/forecast_file.ksy forecast.bin] and [https://github.com/RiiConnect24/Kaitai-Files/blob/master/Kaitais/forecast_file_short.ksy short.bin], and code used by RiiConnect24 to download news data and generate files is available [https://github.com/RiiConnect24/File-Maker/tree/master/Channels/Forecast_Channel here].
