ModMii for Windows
This software is not for sale. If you paid for this software or a "bundle" you have been scammed.
MODMII COMES WITH ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY, NEITHER STATED NOR IMPLIED.
NO ONE BUT YOURSELF IS TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THIS MAY CAUSE TO YOUR CONSOLE!
USE THIS SOFTWARE AT YOUR OWN RISK!
It's now easier than ever to donate to ModMii using Patreon or GitHub Sponsors!
ModMii is able to download all the files needed to modify ANY Wii; it can generate custom guides based on your Wii's specifications, and save the files in their appropriate locations for easy offline softmodding. Sample guides for illustrative purposes only are available here.
It is also capable of performing many other wii hacking functions like setting up a usb-loader and creating an emulated NAND. ModMii was also the very first official installer for the widely adopted d2x cIOS.
Even if your Wii's SD Card reader is broken or you just don't have an SD Card, you can use a Hard Drive formatted as FAT32 in place of an SD Card to complete the majority of ModMii's functions (SD Card notably required for Bootmii and making a NAND backup).
The video below describes some of ModMii's many features:
What can ModMii do?
It can download all the files necessary to Modify, Upgrade & Downgrade your Wii System Menu
Update only your outdated softmods based on a SysCheck log from your Wii

ModMii Changelog
7.0.0 Changelog - 2023:03-10:
Summary:
Many new Drag and Drop supported file types, features and functions
(e.g. nand.bin check/clone/defragment, WAD modify/unpack/trasmit, mym
& csm theme creation, dol & elf app launcher, zip HBC transfer
tool, etc.).
New default cIOS (d2x-v11-beta1) and recommended cIOS configuration
(248[38], 249[56], 250[57], 251[58]).
YAWM ModMii Edition replaced MMM and Some YAWMM Mod in all
wizards/guides. Now all functions support Wii motion+ remotes and/or do
not require manually changing SD:/boot.elf/dol in between guide
steps.
Guide optimizations, improvements and additions (e.g. GPT to MBR
conversion, added 2 new HDD format options WBFS & FAT32+WBFS,
new/improved Youtube videos, re-ordered/combined/streamlined steps,
etc.).
Added optional step to SysCheck Updater guides to carefully stub or
erase unnecessary IOS slots that should be empty using stub IOS
WADs.
UI changes: changes to icons, new default ModMii Skin theme, new
ModMii Skin theme selector, optional Launchpad Toolbar, optional Context
Menu (right-click) access to ModMii.
(Re)introduced auto-updating and semi-auto-updating downloads.
Many new/updated downloads. Notably a dozen new PC Programs were
added.
A custom uninstaller is now bundled with ModMii allowing you to
uninstall some or all of ModMii’s components.
App Updater: new feature added to File Cleanup function on main
menu. Users now prompted if they want to check for updates to
auto-updating apps detected on the device (excluding Dolphin and OSC),
or to delete unnecessary files, or both.
Updated bundled version of NUS Downloader Command Line from v0.2 to
v0.6. The old NUSD did not perfectly create TMDs. Imperfect TMDs were
not generally problematic and have been used without issues for many
years. However, the new YAWM ModMii Edition will prevent installation of
any WAD that is not perfect for security reasons. As a result, many of
the WADs in ModMii’s temp folder from older versions will be deemed
invalid going forward and will be automatically re-downloaded. To
correct the files in your temp folder all at once, download the items
from the bundled “NUS_2023_Changes” download queue.
Other changes and bugfixes.
Drag and Drop:
If you can’t drag and drop it onto ModMii then it probably isn’t Wii
related, because ModMii drops it like it’s hot!
Added support for dragging and dropping multiple items at once.
Added a new option to ModMii Classic’s main menu to open a File or
Folder with ModMii, behaves same as drag and drop except it does not
support opening multiple items at once.
Includes ModMii Launchpad Toolbar Installer/Uninstaller to add or
remove a quicklaunch-like toolbar to your taskbar giving you easy access
to drag and drop functions.
Includes Context Menu Installer/Uninstaller to add or remove “Open
with ModMii” to your right-click context menu (or
Shift-right-click).
Added Drag and Drop support for many new file types and features,
including:
nand.bin tools (nand.bin); Extract, Check, Clone or Defragment a Wii
nand.bin file
Extract a nand.bin into folder format structure to use as an
emulated nand
Check a nand.bin using nandBinCheck to confirm it is safe to install
on a Wii
Clone a nand.bin from one Wii to install to a different Wii using
Punetwiin; output is also automatically checked by nandBinCheck
Defragment a nand.bin for modest speed improvement and/or to
compensate for new bad blocks in old nand backups
Examples: nand.bin, anything.bin
HBC Transfer Tool (zip, 7z, rar)[def]; wirelessly transfer apps to
the device selected in the Homebrew Channnel (e.g. SD, USB)
ModMii supports transferring archives (zip, 7z, rar) both with and
without an /apps/ folder (e.g. usbloader_gx or apps/usbloader_gx). Only
one app per archive can be transferred at a time, and because the HBC’s
managing access is limited to the /apps/ folder any files outside of the
apps folder will be skipped (e.g. roms, games, resources, etc.).
Archives must include a boot.dol or boot.elf file in the app folder (but
not both); other files and subfolders like meta/icon/etc. will get
copied as well.
Examples: Wizard_Settings.bat, or any Wizard_Settings.bat that was
created by ModMii and renamed
Calculate Hashes (everything else); Calculate file hashes using
HashMyFiles
Examples: anything.doc, ., New_Folder, any file or folder
not mentioned above
Wizards & Guides:
New recommended cIOS configuration. Changes have been agreed and
coordinated with wii.guide. A brief rationale for each recommended cIOS
provided below:
Slot 248 base 38: only bases 38 & 58 can play SpongeBob’s
Boating Bash, and only 38 has USB keyboard support for Animal
Crossing
Slot 249 base 56: plays majority of games and a few that base 57
cannot; preferred for slot 249 to avoid unnecessary IOS reloads under
USB Loader GX’s Auto IOS setting
Slot 250 base 57: plays majority of games and a few that base 56
cannot
Slot 251 base 58: only bases 38 & 58 can play SpongeBob’s
Boating Bash, and only 58 supports the LAN adapter
All wizards now use YAWM ModMii Edition (yawmME) instead of MMM and
Some YAWMM Mod. Now all functions support Wii motion+ remotes and/or do
not require manually changing SD:/boot.elf/dol in between guide
steps.
Guides will have users install Priiloader before installing WADs
even if a new System Menu is being installed since yawmME is able to
retain Priiloader installations. The only exception is in SysCheck
Updater guides where a custom system menu version is detected or the HBC
IOS (IOS58) is missing/patched, as the Priiloader Installer will refuse
to run without a clean HBC IOS and system menu version.
Removed step to reinstall the HBC with the HackMii Installer to use
IOS58 (where it was included). This step is no longer necessary as the
HBC is now updated as part of the Install WADs step.
Relevant guides now include a section on checking the Hard drive
partition style and converting from GPT to MBR if applicable.
Wizards no longer ask users to select a USB format type (e.g. FAT32,
NTFS, etc.). Instead, applicable guides include all format options in
spoilers along with pros and cons for each.
In addition to FAT32 (default/recommended), NTFS and FAT32+NTFS,
directions for two new format types have been added: WBFS and
FAT32+WBFS.
Partition style and format type information is included in guides
for devices that were connected when the guide was generated.
Nkit Processing App, GameCube Backup Manager and CleanRip are now
also downloaded when setting up a USB-Loader and referenced in
applicable guides.
System Menu 4.3 is now recommended instead of 4.1 if <=4.0. If
starting on 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 the recommendation is still not change
System Menu versions. There is no benefit to 4.3 over 4.1, but some
users feel strongly about seeing the latest number and their message has
been heard.
Added IOS59 to active IOS download list for Japanese console only as
it is a JPN exclusive IOS. ModMii Wizards will only direct Japanese
consoles to install it.
All Youtube videos were either re-recorded or upscaled and a number
of new videos were created to support guide changes (e.g. YAWM ModMii
Edition).
Enhanced exploit descriptions to list supported firmwares and other
requirements.
Updated DNS servers for str2hax exploit directions.
Wii Channels no longer supported by Nintendo (e.g. News, Wii Speak,
etc.) have been removed from wizards (still available via ModMii’s
Download Pages). These channels can be brought back to life using the
RiiConnect24 Patcher (now also available via ModMii’s Download
Pages).
SysCheck Updater:
SysCheck Updater will direct users to install a base 56 cIOS in slot
249 and base 57 in slot 250; previously both this and the reverse were
considered acceptable. Base 56 is slightly preferred over base 57 for
slot 249 to avoid unnecessary IOS reloads under USB Loader GX’s Auto IOS
setting. This change has also been coordinated with wii.guide.
d2x v10 beta 52 and v8-final are still considered equal to one
another; however, both are considered inferior to v11 beta 1 by ModMii’s
SysCheck Updater even though the improvements can be argued as
relatively minor.
Added optional step to carefully stub or erase unnecessary IOS slots
that should be empty using stub IOS WADs. Stub IOS WADs are never built
for critical or commonly used IOS slots (e.g. 80, 202, 222-224, 236,
240-256, etc).
Any version of the HBC equal to or greater than 1.1.2 is considered
to be up to date.
Custom system menu versions (e.g. v65535) are now detected and users
directed to install stock system menu versions. Custom system menu
versions do not play nicely with Priiloader and/or system menu
hacks.
Region mismatches are now detected (i.e. due to an incomplete region
change) and users are advised to complete the Region Change Wizard to
correct it before proceeding with the SysCheck Updater.
SysCheck Updater guides will now hide the last four digits of the
console ID.
User Interface:
Slight changes to icons used by ModMii and the ModMii Installer.
ModMii Skin icon is now a different colour.
Added new option to ModMii Skin to change its theme. Anyone at any
time can create a new theme and submit it to XFlak to share with all
users.
Default ModMii Skin theme changed to AuroraNemoia’s Nebula theme.
Original theme still available via ModMii Skin’s theme selector
option.
Added ModMii Launchpad Toolbar and ModMii Context Menu (Right-click)
options; see Drag and Drop changes for more info.
Adjustments to main menu order and wording to be more clear and user
friendly.
GUI interface with helpful tool tips displayed when hovering your
mouse over items.
(Re)introduced auto-updating and semi-auto-updating downloads to
many Wii Apps and PC Programs that still frequently receive updates.
Added an option for Auto-Updating downloads to skip update check if
previously downloaded and cached; disabled by default.
Downloads that are not auto-updating can now be refreshed during
update checks without requiring a full ModMii update. Database (DB)
version/date information is listed in guides as well as ModMii Classic’s
main menu.
Added support to create custom v14 SD/USB Forwarder dols; v12
still available just in case.
ModMii’s USBLoader Forwarder channel was updated from v12 to v14.
Also it now includes a forwarder dol to more easily autoboot this
channel directly from Priiloader. ModMii guides provide general
direction on how to install and autoboot files in Priiloader.
PC Program Start Menu shortcuts (optional) are now all organized
in a ModMii Start Menu folder instead of a separate folder for each
program.
If PC Programs are installed portably they will now be saved to
Device:/Program Files/AppName instead of Device:/AppName.
Adjusted naming convention for advanced user defined downloads to
support some Wii apps not directly used by ModMii (e.g. cIOS installers)
that expect this naming format to work without WiFi
(e.g. IOS56-64-v5661.wad instead of IOS56v5661.wad).
Bundled new download queue “d2x_installer_bases_38_56_57_58” that
will save d2x base IOSs in the right locations for the d2x cIOS
installer (Wii app) to be able to work offline. The d2x cIOS Installer
is not used by ModMii as it’s redundant, but should users prefer it, it
is downloadable via the OSC or HBB.
Removed old/outdated Priiloader hacks.ini download, Dop-Mii, and
WiiMod.

many improvements over its predecessor, including the ability to retain
Priiloader when installing a new System Menu, to launch apps, to
temporarily disable region checks/protection to permit region changing,
and more. Find the complete yawmME changelog on github for the complete
list of changes.

such as: Remove Deflicker, Block Disc Autoboot, Allow TitleID
RAAE/408x/410x, Remove IOS16 Disc Error, and Mark Network Con as Tested.
Notably the Remove Deflicker system menu hack disables the blurring

Cheat Codes (auto-updating) now downloaded in a single archive
instead of individually and is much faster. The archive is updated
periodically with new cheats from both codes.rc24.xyz and
gamehacking.org.
Old/slower Cheat Codes downloader is still accessible via ModMii’s
bundled download queue “CheatCodes_For_AccioHacks”. Use this only if you
require cheat codes to be named in AccioHacks compatible format. The old
downloader is faster than it was in v6.6.3 but still time
consuming.
Any Region Changer ModMii Edition (ARCME) updated to v1.0.6.
Download was refreshed silently before this ModMii update.
MyMenuifyMod updated to v2.0.
NeoGamma updated to R9 beta 56 MOD r4
ShowMiiWads updated to v1.5.2 mod
postLoader updated to v4.7.96
Updated graphics for the following channels/WADs: postLoader, neek2o
(nswitch), WiiFlow and switch2uneek.
Simple IOS Patcher and IOS236 Installer were updated with a new NUS
endpoint; from http://nus.cdn.shop.wii.com/ccs/download to
http://ccs.cdn.sho.rc24.xyz/ccs/download
Slight change to patched system menu IOSs based on IOS60. TMD was
updated at offset 0x3E2 from 0x0001 to 0x8001 to indicate shared content
in order to save nand space when multiple IOSs with same content are
installed. No functional difference other than saving nand space.
All CSM themes from ModMii’s Download Page 3 are now signed to avoid
unnecessary warning prompts when being installed by MyMenuifyMod after
its 2023 update.
Other:
A custom uninstaller is now bundled with ModMii allowing you to
uninstall some or all of ModMii’s components (e.g. you can uninstall Wii
Backup Manager while retaining ModMii, or vice versa, etc.).
App Updater: new feature added to File Cleanup function on main
menu. Users now prompted if they want to check for updates to
auto-updating apps detected on the device (excluding Dolphin and OSC),
or to delete unnecessary files, or both. Latest versions will be
retrieved even if the option to skip update check for Auto-Updating
downloads is enabled. All actions continue to be listed onscreen for
users to confirm before proceeding with changes.
File Cleanup function updated to check for a few more apps to remove
(e.g. HBB) and if a bootmii folder is detected it will be renamed to
bootmii_off to prevent it from being accessed.
Updated bundled version of NUS Downloader Command Line from v0.2 to
v0.6. The old NUSD did not perfectly create TMDs. Imperfect TMDs were
not generally problematic and have been used without issues for many
years. However, the new YAWM ModMii Edition will prevent installation of
any WAD that is not perfect for security reasons. As a result, many of
the WADs in ModMii’s temp folder from older versions will be deemed
invalid going forward and will be automatically re-downloaded. To
correct the files in your temp folder all at once, download the items
from the bundled “NUS_2023_Changes” download queue.
When loading a download queue via ModMii Classic a saved queue can
now be deleted by entering a minus sign in front of the number
(e.g. entering -1 will delete queue # 1). Previously queues could only
be deleted by manually removing them from the temp/DownloadQueues
folders.
The Open Homebrew Channel can be installed to emulated NANDs using
ModMii’s Emulated NAND Builder or Modifier.
Removed option to keep a patched IOS36.
Added red font.bin option for SNEEK/UNEEK in addition to black
(default) and white. Also clarified font.bin descriptions: White text on
Black background (formerly black), Black text on White background
(formerly white) and Red text on Black background.
ModMii verbose option adjusted; now only impacts ModMii Skin and
nandBinCheck but not wget (i.e. wget will always start minimized).
Option can now also be toggled within ModMii Skin.
Minor changes to the ModMii Installer. ModMii Classic will be
launched instead of ModMii Skin after installation. Added Start Menu
shortcuts to website and ModMii installation directory. Updated graphics
to match the new default ModMii Skin theme.
Updated .NET Framework 3.5 installer for newer versions of Windows;
only downloaded if detected as missing.
Improved support for custom paths with special characters like &
and ^.
ModMii will now work even if run from a network location without an
assigned drive letter. The location will be temporarily mapped to a new
drive letter which will get removed when ModMii is cleanly exited. Note
that if ModMii is forcefully closed the new mapped drive will not get
removed automatically, and if done repeatedly it could result in
duplicate mapped drive letters. Habitually running ModMii from a network
location is not advised.
Added some more Easter Eggs to ModMii Classic. Happy hunting!
Other minor changes.
Bugfix:
Fixed bug in ModMii Skin where downloads would fail if the download
path was set to the root of a drive. ModMii Classic never had this
issue.
Updated supporting apps (nusd v0.2, nusfilegrabber and libwiisharp)
with new NUS endpoint used by 3ds and WiiU so they could continue to
retrieve Wii files when NUS was offline from 2022/3/16 to 2022/7/6.
Autopatcher previously released to hotfix this for older versions of
ModMii.
Fixed bug where ModMii Skin would fail if entering S to skip
entering a Mac Address for Wilbrand (i.e. to use Letterbomb).
Fixed issue where ModMii Skin was sending a blank “MAC:” argument
command to ModMii Classic when a <2.2 system menu version was
selected. MAC only required if using the Wilbrand exploit on 4.3.
If an invalid neek “Rev:#” command line argument is sent to ModMii
it will now build the latest version instead of exiting.
Fixed detection of nswitch channel on emulated nands when running
ModMii’s EmuNAND modifier.
Updated various dead links, including link for hypatia. Previously
users without hypatia (hy.exe) cached to their temp folder would be
warned about lack of free space when using ModMii’s Game Bulk Extractor.
ModMii allowed users to continue anyway but now free space estimates are
working again.
font.bin now also included when building non +di variants of neek2o
in order to access the overlay menu. Previously only included for +di
variants.
Fixed bug when dragging and dropping a HDD or SD device onto ModMii
to quickly access its File Cleanup feature.
Fixed bug in v12 forwarder dol builder that limited path length to
204 characters instead of 255.
Fixed issue where SysCheck guides did not include a copy of the
supplied SysCheck if the download location was set as an absolute path
and not a relative path.
Fixed bug in ModMii’s d2x option where users could choose from just
10 d2x versions instead of full list of alternate d2x versions.
Fixed a bug where the Wii might self-destruct in 2023 according to
some
news outlets.

ModMii Changelog
7.0.0 Changelog - 2023:03-10:
Summary:
Many new Drag and Drop supported file types, features and functions
(e.g. nand.bin check/clone/defragment, WAD modify/unpack/trasmit, mym
& csm theme creation, dol & elf app launcher, zip HBC transfer
tool, etc.).
New default cIOS (d2x-v11-beta1) and recommended cIOS configuration
(248[38], 249[56], 250[57], 251[58]).
YAWM ModMii Edition replaced MMM and Some YAWMM Mod in all
wizards/guides. Now all functions support Wii motion+ remotes and/or do
not require manually changing SD:/boot.elf/dol in between guide
steps.
Guide optimizations, improvements and additions (e.g. GPT to MBR
conversion, added 2 new HDD format options WBFS & FAT32+WBFS,
new/improved Youtube videos, re-ordered/combined/streamlined steps,
etc.).
Added optional step to SysCheck Updater guides to carefully stub or
erase unnecessary IOS slots that should be empty using stub IOS
WADs.
UI changes: changes to icons, new default ModMii Skin theme, new
ModMii Skin theme selector, optional Launchpad Toolbar, optional Context
Menu (right-click) access to ModMii.
(Re)introduced auto-updating and semi-auto-updating downloads.
Many new/updated downloads. Notably a dozen new PC Programs were
added.
A custom uninstaller is now bundled with ModMii allowing you to
uninstall some or all of ModMii’s components.
App Updater: new feature added to File Cleanup function on main
menu. Users now prompted if they want to check for updates to
auto-updating apps detected on the device (excluding Dolphin and OSC),
or to delete unnecessary files, or both.
Updated bundled version of NUS Downloader Command Line from v0.2 to
v0.6. The old NUSD did not perfectly create TMDs. Imperfect TMDs were
not generally problematic and have been used without issues for many
years. However, the new YAWM ModMii Edition will prevent installation of
any WAD that is not perfect for security reasons. As a result, many of
the WADs in ModMii’s temp folder from older versions will be deemed
invalid going forward and will be automatically re-downloaded. To
correct the files in your temp folder all at once, download the items
from the bundled “NUS_2023_Changes” download queue.
Other changes and bugfixes.
Drag and Drop:
If you can’t drag and drop it onto ModMii then it probably isn’t Wii
related, because ModMii drops it like it’s hot!
Added support for dragging and dropping multiple items at once.
Added a new option to ModMii Classic’s main menu to open a File or
Folder with ModMii, behaves same as drag and drop except it does not
support opening multiple items at once.
Includes ModMii Launchpad Toolbar Installer/Uninstaller to add or
remove a quicklaunch-like toolbar to your taskbar giving you easy access
to drag and drop functions.
Includes Context Menu Installer/Uninstaller to add or remove “Open
with ModMii” to your right-click context menu (or
Shift-right-click).
Added Drag and Drop support for many new file types and features,
including:
nand.bin tools (nand.bin); Extract, Check, Clone or Defragment a Wii
nand.bin file
Extract a nand.bin into folder format structure to use as an
emulated nand
Check a nand.bin using nandBinCheck to confirm it is safe to install
on a Wii
Clone a nand.bin from one Wii to install to a different Wii using
Punetwiin; output is also automatically checked by nandBinCheck
Defragment a nand.bin for modest speed improvement and/or to
compensate for new bad blocks in old nand backups
Examples: nand.bin, anything.bin
HBC Transfer Tool (zip, 7z, rar); wirelessly transfer apps to
the device selected in the Homebrew Channnel (e.g. SD, USB)
ModMii supports transferring archives (zip, 7z, rar) both with and
without an /apps/ folder (e.g. usbloader_gx or apps/usbloader_gx). Only
one app per archive can be transferred at a time, and because the HBC’s
managing access is limited to the /apps/ folder any files outside of the
apps folder will be skipped (e.g. roms, games, resources, etc.).
Archives must include a boot.dol or boot.elf file in the app folder (but
not both); other files and subfolders like meta/icon/etc. will get
copied as well.
Examples: Wizard_Settings.bat, or any Wizard_Settings.bat that was
created by ModMii and renamed
Calculate Hashes (everything else); Calculate file hashes using
HashMyFiles
Examples: anything.doc, ., New_Folder, any file or folder
not mentioned above
Wizards & Guides:
New recommended cIOS configuration. Changes have been agreed and
coordinated with wii.guide. A brief rationale for each recommended cIOS
provided below:
Slot 248 base 38: only bases 38 & 58 can play SpongeBob’s
Boating Bash, and only 38 has USB keyboard support for Animal
Crossing
Slot 249 base 56: plays majority of games and a few that base 57
cannot; preferred for slot 249 to avoid unnecessary IOS reloads under
USB Loader GX’s Auto IOS setting
Slot 250 base 57: plays majority of games and a few that base 56
cannot
Slot 251 base 58: only bases 38 & 58 can play SpongeBob’s
Boating Bash, and only 58 supports the LAN adapter
All wizards now use YAWM ModMii Edition (yawmME) instead of MMM and
Some YAWMM Mod. Now all functions support Wii motion+ remotes and/or do
not require manually changing SD:/boot.elf/dol in between guide
steps.
Guides will have users install Priiloader before installing WADs
even if a new System Menu is being installed since yawmME is able to
retain Priiloader installations. The only exception is in SysCheck
Updater guides where a custom system menu version is detected or the HBC
IOS (IOS58) is missing/patched, as the Priiloader Installer will refuse
to run without a clean HBC IOS and system menu version.
Removed step to reinstall the HBC with the HackMii Installer to use
IOS58 (where it was included). This step is no longer necessary as the
HBC is now updated as part of the Install WADs step.
Relevant guides now include a section on checking the Hard drive
partition style and converting from GPT to MBR if applicable.
Wizards no longer ask users to select a USB format type (e.g. FAT32,
NTFS, etc.). Instead, applicable guides include all format options in
spoilers along with pros and cons for each.
In addition to FAT32 (default/recommended), NTFS and FAT32+NTFS,
directions for two new format types have been added: WBFS and
FAT32+WBFS.
Partition style and format type information is included in guides
for devices that were connected when the guide was generated.
Nkit Processing App, GameCube Backup Manager and CleanRip are now
also downloaded when setting up a USB-Loader and referenced in
applicable guides.
System Menu 4.3 is now recommended instead of 4.1 if <=4.0. If
starting on 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 the recommendation is still not change
System Menu versions. There is no benefit to 4.3 over 4.1, but some
users feel strongly about seeing the latest number and their message has
been heard.
Added IOS59 to active IOS download list for Japanese console only as
it is a JPN exclusive IOS. ModMii Wizards will only direct Japanese
consoles to install it.
All Youtube videos were either re-recorded or upscaled and a number
of new videos were created to support guide changes (e.g. YAWM ModMii
Edition).
Enhanced exploit descriptions to list supported firmwares and other
requirements.
Updated DNS servers for str2hax exploit directions.
Wii Channels no longer supported by Nintendo (e.g. News, Wii Speak,
etc.) have been removed from wizards (still available via ModMii’s
Download Pages). These channels can be brought back to life using the
RiiConnect24 Patcher (now also available via ModMii’s Download
Pages).
SysCheck Updater:
SysCheck Updater will direct users to install a base 56 cIOS in slot
249 and base 57 in slot 250; previously both this and the reverse were
considered acceptable. Base 56 is slightly preferred over base 57 for
slot 249 to avoid unnecessary IOS reloads under USB Loader GX’s Auto IOS
setting. This change has also been coordinated with wii.guide.
d2x v10 beta 52 and v8-final are still considered equal to one
another; however, both are considered inferior to v11 beta 1 by ModMii’s
SysCheck Updater even though the improvements can be argued as
relatively minor.
Added optional step to carefully stub or erase unnecessary IOS slots
that should be empty using stub IOS WADs. Stub IOS WADs are never built
for critical or commonly used IOS slots (e.g. 80, 202, 222-224, 236,
240-256, etc).
Any version of the HBC equal to or greater than 1.1.2 is considered
to be up to date.
Custom system menu versions (e.g. v65535) are now detected and users
directed to install stock system menu versions. Custom system menu
versions do not play nicely with Priiloader and/or system menu
hacks.
Region mismatches are now detected (i.e. due to an incomplete region
change) and users are advised to complete the Region Change Wizard to
correct it before proceeding with the SysCheck Updater.
SysCheck Updater guides will now hide the last four digits of the
console ID.
User Interface:
Slight changes to icons used by ModMii and the ModMii Installer.
ModMii Skin icon is now a different colour.
Added new option to ModMii Skin to change its theme. Anyone at any
time can create a new theme and submit it to XFlak to share with all
users.
Default ModMii Skin theme changed to AuroraNemoia’s Nebula theme.
Original theme still available via ModMii Skin’s theme selector
option.
Added ModMii Launchpad Toolbar and ModMii Context Menu (Right-click)
options; see Drag and Drop changes for more info.
Adjustments to main menu order and wording to be more clear and user
friendly.
GUI interface with helpful tool tips displayed when hovering your
mouse over items.
(Re)introduced auto-updating and semi-auto-updating downloads to
many Wii Apps and PC Programs that still frequently receive updates.
Added an option for Auto-Updating downloads to skip update check if
previously downloaded and cached; disabled by default.
Downloads that are not auto-updating can now be refreshed during
update checks without requiring a full ModMii update. Database (DB)
version/date information is listed in guides as well as ModMii Classic’s
main menu.
Added support to create custom v14 SD/USB Forwarder dols; v12
still available just in case.
ModMii’s USBLoader Forwarder channel was updated from v12 to v14.
Also it now includes a forwarder dol to more easily autoboot this
channel directly from Priiloader. ModMii guides provide general
direction on how to install and autoboot files in Priiloader.
PC Program Start Menu shortcuts (optional) are now all organized
in a ModMii Start Menu folder instead of a separate folder for each
program.
If PC Programs are installed portably they will now be saved to
Device:/Program Files/AppName instead of Device:/AppName.
Adjusted naming convention for advanced user defined downloads to
support some Wii apps not directly used by ModMii (e.g. cIOS installers)
that expect this naming format to work without WiFi
(e.g. IOS56-64-v5661.wad instead of IOS56v5661.wad).
Bundled new download queue “d2x_installer_bases_38_56_57_58” that
will save d2x base IOSs in the right locations for the d2x cIOS
installer (Wii app) to be able to work offline. The d2x cIOS Installer
is not used by ModMii as it’s redundant, but should users prefer it, it
is downloadable via the OSC or HBB.
Removed old/outdated Priiloader hacks.ini download, Dop-Mii, and
WiiMod.

Edition) replaced Some YAWMM Mod on ModMii’s Download Page 2. yawmME has
many improvements over its predecessor, including the ability to retain
Priiloader when installing a new System Menu, to launch apps, to
temporarily disable region checks/protection to permit region changing,
and more. Find the complete yawmME changelog on github for the complete
list of changes.

RAAE/408x/410x, Remove IOS16 Disc Error, and Mark Network Con as Tested.
Notably the Remove Deflicker system menu hack disables the blurring

Cheat Codes (auto-updating) now downloaded in a single archive
instead of individually and is much faster. The archive is updated
periodically with new cheats from both codes.rc24.xyz and
gamehacking.org.
Old/slower Cheat Codes downloader is still accessible via ModMii’s
bundled download queue “CheatCodes_For_AccioHacks”. Use this only if you
require cheat codes to be named in AccioHacks compatible format. The old
downloader is faster than it was in v6.6.3 but still time
consuming.
Any Region Changer ModMii Edition (ARCME) updated to v1.0.6.
Download was refreshed silently before this ModMii update.
MyMenuifyMod updated to v2.0.
NeoGamma updated to R9 beta 56 MOD r4

postLoader updated to v4.7.96
Updated graphics for the following channels/WADs: postLoader, neek2o
(nswitch), WiiFlow and switch2uneek.
Simple IOS Patcher and IOS236 Installer were updated with a new NUS
endpoint; from http://nus.cdn.shop.wii.com/ccs/download to
http://ccs.cdn.sho.rc24.xyz/ccs/download
Slight change to patched system menu IOSs based on IOS60. TMD was
updated at offset 0x3E2 from 0x0001 to 0x8001 to indicate shared content
in order to save nand space when multiple IOSs with same content are
installed. No functional difference other than saving nand space.
All CSM themes from ModMii’s Download Page 3 are now signed to avoid
unnecessary warning prompts when being installed by MyMenuifyMod after
its 2023 update.
Other:
A custom uninstaller is now bundled with ModMii allowing you to
uninstall some or all of ModMii’s components (e.g. you can uninstall Wii
Backup Manager while retaining ModMii, or vice versa, etc.).
App Updater: new feature added to File Cleanup function on main
menu. Users now prompted if they want to check for updates to
auto-updating apps detected on the device (excluding Dolphin and OSC),
or to delete unnecessary files, or both. Latest versions will be
retrieved even if the option to skip update check for Auto-Updating
downloads is enabled. All actions continue to be listed onscreen for
users to confirm before proceeding with changes.
File Cleanup function updated to check for a few more apps to remove
(e.g. HBB) and if a bootmii folder is detected it will be renamed to
bootmii_off to prevent it from being accessed.
Updated bundled version of NUS Downloader Command Line from v0.2 to
v0.6. The old NUSD did not perfectly create TMDs. Imperfect TMDs were
not generally problematic and have been used without issues for many
years. However, the new YAWM ModMii Edition will prevent installation of
any WAD that is not perfect for security reasons. As a result, many of
the WADs in ModMii’s temp folder from older versions will be deemed
invalid going forward and will be automatically re-downloaded. To
correct the files in your temp folder all at once, download the items
from the bundled “NUS_2023_Changes” download queue.
When loading a download queue via ModMii Classic a saved queue can
now be deleted by entering a minus sign in front of the number
(e.g. entering -1 will delete queue # 1). Previously queues could only
be deleted by manually removing them from the temp/DownloadQueues
folders.
The Open Homebrew Channel can be installed to emulated NANDs using
ModMii’s Emulated NAND Builder or Modifier.
Removed option to keep a patched IOS36.
Added red font.bin option for SNEEK/UNEEK in addition to black
(default) and white. Also clarified font.bin descriptions: White text on
Black background (formerly black), Black text on White background
(formerly white) and Red text on Black background.
ModMii verbose option adjusted; now only impacts ModMii Skin and
nandBinCheck but not wget (i.e. wget will always start minimized).
Option can now also be toggled within ModMii Skin.
Minor changes to the ModMii Installer. ModMii Classic will be
launched instead of ModMii Skin after installation. Added Start Menu
shortcuts to website and ModMii installation directory. Updated graphics
to match the new default ModMii Skin theme.
Updated .NET Framework 3.5 installer for newer versions of Windows;
only downloaded if detected as missing.
Improved support for custom paths with special characters like &
and ^.
ModMii will now work even if run from a network location without an
assigned drive letter. The location will be temporarily mapped to a new
drive letter which will get removed when ModMii is cleanly exited. Note
that if ModMii is forcefully closed the new mapped drive will not get
removed automatically, and if done repeatedly it could result in
duplicate mapped drive letters. Habitually running ModMii from a network
location is not advised.
Added some more Easter Eggs to ModMii Classic. Happy hunting!
Other minor changes.
Bugfix:
Fixed bug in ModMii Skin where downloads would fail if the download
path was set to the root of a drive. ModMii Classic never had this
issue.
Updated supporting apps (nusd v0.2, nusfilegrabber and libwiisharp)
with new NUS endpoint used by 3ds and WiiU so they could continue to
retrieve Wii files when NUS was offline from 2022/3/16 to 2022/7/6.
Autopatcher previously released to hotfix this for older versions of
ModMii.
Fixed bug where ModMii Skin would fail if entering S to skip
entering a Mac Address for Wilbrand (i.e. to use Letterbomb).
Fixed issue where ModMii Skin was sending a blank “MAC:” argument
command to ModMii Classic when a <2.2 system menu version was
selected. MAC only required if using the Wilbrand exploit on 4.3.
If an invalid neek “Rev:#” command line argument is sent to ModMii
it will now build the latest version instead of exiting.
Fixed detection of nswitch channel on emulated nands when running
ModMii’s EmuNAND modifier.
Updated various dead links, including link for hypatia. Previously
users without hypatia (hy.exe) cached to their temp folder would be
warned about lack of free space when using ModMii’s Game Bulk Extractor.
ModMii allowed users to continue anyway but now free space estimates are
working again.
font.bin now also included when building non +di variants of neek2o
in order to access the overlay menu. Previously only included for +di
variants.
Fixed bug when dragging and dropping a HDD or SD device onto ModMii
to quickly access its File Cleanup feature.
Fixed bug in v12 forwarder dol builder that limited path length to
204 characters instead of 255.
Fixed issue where SysCheck guides did not include a copy of the
supplied SysCheck if the download location was set as an absolute path
and not a relative path.
Fixed bug in ModMii’s d2x option where users could choose from just
10 d2x versions instead of full list of alternate d2x versions.
Fixed a bug where the Wii might self-destruct in 2023 according to
some
news outlets.
