Summary ------- -New\updated website, exploits, recommended cIOSs, System Menu IOSs, apps, modding steps, videos, discord server and donations page. -Major improvements to ModMii's custom generated guides, updates to many of ModMii's downloads, and fixed a handful of broken links. General ------- -Updated links to ModMii's new site; modmii.github.io and migrated the project from sourceforge to github. -Added str2hax exploit to ModMii, enabling you to softmod using a FAT32 HDD in place of an SD Card to do most things. This is always included as an exploit option in all of ModMii's guides. -Rewrote ModMii's updater to be able to adapt to potential website changes. Updates should work even if github goes down or ModMii moves to a different home for some other reason. -ModMii's File Cleanup feature now also removes the Priiloader Launcher (new) and ModMii Guides. -Added a dedicated "Extra Brick Protection" setting to Options menu. Previously it had a shared setting with "Update IOSs". -Added d2x version selector to the main Options menu in addition to Download Page 4 and Advanced Downloads Page. -Added hermes cIOS setting to Options menu; when enabled 202 & 222-224 are included in recommended cIOSs. Default is disabled since they are generally redundant with other recommended cIOSs -Added a check to prevent creating dead-end shortcuts if PC Apps are not downloaded successfully. -Created a new ModMii Discord Support Server for users who prefer to use Discord instead of email or gbatemp: https://discord.gg/cMnBRACQwQ -Donations now accepted (again) at modmii.github.io/donations.html. No easter eggs or perks given in exchange for donations. Support is given freely and equally. CIOS ---- -Updated default version of d2x from v8-final to v10-beta52 and rev number maxxed out to 65535. -ModMii and wii.guide have coordinated updating our recommended cIOSs to install d2x cIOS with base 38 to slot 251. Previously ModMii didn't install anything to this slot, and wii.guide recommended base 58 to this slot. There are 2 games that are supported by d2x base 38 that do not fully work with the standard d2x base 57 & 56 setup in slots 249 & 250. Wii.guide previously recommended installing d2x base 58 to slot 251, but this only worked for 1 of these games. Similarly ModMii previously recommended Hermes cIOSs by default which worked in these cases. Today I am proud to say that these two great Wii modding resources are fully aligned in their recommended cIOS setup. More info here: https://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/Wii_cIOS_base_Compatibility_List -Made three new changes to the patched IOS60v6174 that ModMii installs to System Menu IOS slots; 1) tagged 00000000.app for better sysCheck IOS detection; 2) changed version number from 16174 to 65535 since it is no longer needed for sysCheck IOS detection; and 3) replaced Nintendo's RSA Public key with RC24's enabling it to support RiiConnect24, including Wii Mail. With this System Menu IOS you can use RiiConnect24 without having to be on SM4.3. Note that for full RiiConnect24 functionality you will still need to use the RiiConnect24 patcher, but you can skip updating to 4.3 and installing RC24's IOS80 (which carries some small 003 brick potential). ModMii's sysCheck updater will accept both the current and previous versions as being up to date since these changes are non-vital improvements. -Hermes cIOSs 202 & 222-234 are no longer included in recommended cIOSs by default since they are generally redundant with other recommended cIOSs. This can be re-enabled in ModMii's Options. -Adjusted the tag on the IOS236 WAD from Download Page 1 so that it reports the same detailed info in sysCheck logs as the version installed by the IOS236 Installer homebrew. This WAD is still not used in any ModMii functions, but it remains available for download. Wizards/Guides -------------- -Removed IOS236 installation from main modding procedure; instead Priiloader and WADs are installed using ahbprot access. IOS236 WAD, IOS236 installer and Simple IOS Patcher still available in Download Pages. -Replaced MMM with Some YAWMM Mod for ModMii's main wizard and sysCheck Updater wizard as it has support for Motion+ controllers. WiiMod Lite is not supported because of reasons identified here: http://tiny.cc/0ihotz -MMM is still used in some guides where it's launched directly from an exploit to install WADs then use it's App Launcher to load the next app without having to rename files and repeat an exploit. Notes added to these guides on how to proceed you only have Motion+ remotes. -Bundled a new stand-alone script saved to ModMii's Support folder: ExploitAppSelector.bat. It does exactly what it says and works when saved to the root of any SD or COPY_TO_SD folder, or ModMii's main\support folders. ModMii wizards that launch MMM via an exploit also save this script to COPY_TO_SD and reference it in guides to help users change the app launched by exploits. -Added a new first step to guides to explicitly check the format of your SD card (or HDD) and to format it as FAT32 if necessary. Not applicable to Region Change Guides and sysCheck Updater guides as these users will already have done this. These steps were already present in ModMii's USB-Loader setup guides. -In the ModMii main wizard, if a user indicates his wii is not a virgin and knows specifically what he wants to update, and they decide to change SM versions but say no to installing Priiloader, ModMii will override this poor decision and include Priiloader in its guide. I don't think many people are using ModMii this way, but just in case. -Added KoreanKii to region change guides as an optional step to add or remove the Korean Key. -Updated many gifs used in ModMii guides as well as created new ones for ModMii's new videos. -Nintendont is now downloaded as a Gamecube "plugin" when setting up a USB-Loader with one of ModMii's wizards. All apps still available on a stand-alone basis in classic download pages. -Major improvements to the content and formatting of ModMii's custom guides. "Fun Facts" and other pro-tips were added in an attempt to help first-time modders learn more about what they're doing instead of just following steps. -Added support for the LetterBomb exploit to ModMii's guides. This was essentially already supported in the form of Wilbrand's Mailbox Bomb. However, now when ModMii prompts users for their Wii's MAC Address they will be given the option to skip this for now and enter it later. Wilbrand's Mailbox Bomb is constructed if a MAC address is provided; but if skipped, ModMii will not prepare the exploit directly but instead instruct users to download and save LetterBomb to their SD Card. If on SM4.3, LetterBomb is always set to be a secondary exploit option. -SysCheck Updater guides now include a copy of the original sysCheck in a spoiler. -Alphabetized WADs in ModMii's guides as well as downloads in general. App Updates ----------- -Priiloader updated to v0.9 with lots of new features; ModMii bundles it with the Priiloader Launcher app and a modified hacks_hash with the "Lock System Menu with Black Screen" hack removed. Added some important info and warnings to meta.xml; e.g. how to access Priiloader, how it can be removed when updating or (un)installing a new System Menu, name changed to "Priiloader Installer", etc. -Reordered paths for USB-Loader Forwarder Channel to prioritize USBLoaderGX first, WiiFlow second, and CFG third. Also the removed splash screen to speed up load time. -Updated Any Region Changer (ARC) to ARC ModMii Edition (ARCME) by scooby74029; if ARCME detects a region mismatch, you only have to select the "Auto Fix Settings" to correct it. Older versions of ARC required you to set a Region, save, then change the video mode back to it's previous setting, and save again. ARCME's "Auto Fix Settings" takes care of all that (i.e. it does not change the video mode but changes everything else to align with the installed System Menu region). It's a minor improvement over the original but don't forget it also supports Motion+ remotes so ARCME FTW! -Updated USBLoaderGX to blackb0x's r1272 mod v5 released in Feb 2021. It's changelog is quite impressive, you should read it: http://tiny.cc/gxenhanced -Updated WiiFlow Lite to Fledge68's v5.4.8 -Updated Nintendont to v6.490. -Updated Wii64 beta 1.1 to beta 1.2; which was released 3 years ago, sorry for missing it! Please report if you notice something like this! -Updated Savegame Manager GX to rev76 by Dj_Skual. -Updated Homebrew Browser from v0.3.9c to v0.3.9e. -Updated sysCheck to the latest, slightly modified, version of sysCheck HDE. The only change is an updated URL to re-enable uploading of reports; thanks to the RC24 team for maintaining this functionality! -Two versions of Bootmii SD Files are now considered valid. The older version hosted online by Team Twiizer, and now also the newer version that the latest HackMii Installer creates when preparing an SD card. -Added custom meta.xml and icon.png to the HackMii Installer. The installer itself is still downloaded from the original source and NOT mirrored. -Updated Configurable USB Loader MOD Patched to the latest version 70r78.11 by nitro from 2017/01/15 (mighty.dol plugin also updated) http://tiny.cc/r5kqtz -CFG USBLoader downloads will only update\overwrite apps folder, existing usb-loader config files will not be overwritten. Previous behaviour would have renamed the usb-folder if detected; now it just skips any duplicates when copying config files. -No longer creates a custom CFG USBLoader config.txt to avoid potential user error\overwrite if manually copying files over to SD or USB. SysCheck Updater ---------------- -d2x v8-final and v10-beta52 are considered equivalent by ModMii's sysCheck updater. -SysCheck updater will now consider cIOSs valid regardless of their installed version number (i.e. d2x v10 will be considered valid if it's v65535, v21010 or some other number). -Added check for RiiConnect24's IOS31 to ModMii's sysCheck Updater, if detected users will be prompted whether they want to keep or overwrite RiiConnect24. -Added check to sysCheck updater to abort if console type is detected as vWii SNEEK ----- -Added checks for SNEEK when building UNEEK, and vice versa. Users are prompted if there's a conflict to choose whether to skip or overwrite SD files for one with the other. This is especially helpful for users trying to set up a SNEEK and UNEEK dual-boot configuration. Users are instructed how to have both SNEEK and UNEEK (with or without DI) set up simultaneously to allow quickly switching between them using USBLoaderGX. -Added many more SNEEK notes to help users get started, and notes are now also displayed if using ModMii Skin. Videos ------ -9 new or updated videos added to ModMii guides (although the KoreanKii videos are so short they almost don't count) -str2hax and Priiloader v0.9 videos by Foxlet and directed by XFlak. -Some YAWMM Mod, ARCME, KoreanKii removal videos recorded by Clutz450, edited by alexander1970 and directed by XFlak. -KoreanKii installation video by JoostinOnline. -LetterBomb and Downloading LetterBomb videos by DeadlyFoez. He recorded these ages ago but they were never used until now. -Updated HackMii Installer video recorded by Foxlet, combined with older footage from DeadlyFoez, edited by alexander1970, directed by XFlak. This video now shows what the installer looks like if you can install Bootmii as boot2 as well as if you cannot. Fixed dead links ---------------- -Updated ModMii's cheat code downloader to use codes.rc24.xyz since geckocodes.org has shut down. -Updated broken links for Accio Hacks, FAT32 GUI Formatter and UnRAR (UnRAR required for SNEEK installations). Broken links were only problematic if the files had not been previously downloaded and saved to ModMii's temp folder. -If you happen to type "scam" after typing "skip" and accidentally press enter at the scam warning screen, ModMii will no longer prompt you with the aforementioned screen until the next software update. Yes I know this isn't a dead link, but if you made it this far into the changelog and are still paying attention you earned an egg! -Reuploaded and updated links for ModMii's youtube videos. Other ----- -Other minor changes. -So this is the final FINAL update... again... see you for the next one!

<h1>How to Install ModMii</h1>
|
|
|
|
Download and run the official <a href="https://github.com/xflak/modmii/raw/master/ModMiiInstaller.exe">ModMii Installer</a>.
|
|
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
|
|
The installer is self-explanatory, but if for some reason you run into issues you can download the latest zip from <a href="https://github.com/xflak/modmii/releases">HERE</a> and unzip it anywhere on your PC. Then just double-click ModMii.exe or ModMiiSkin.exe.
|
|
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h1>ModMii Wizard Usage</h1>
|
|
|
|
You can use the ModMii Wizard to softmod any Wii. Even if the Wii is already softmodded you can update all your softmods (overwriting existing softmods) by telling ModMii that it is the first time you're modding your Wii, even though its not. You can also use this wizard to setup up a USB-Loader instead of having to later use the USB-Loader Setup Guide
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h1>Abstinence Wizard</h1>
|
|
|
|
This wizard allows you to enjoy many of the benefits of a softmodded Wii without installing any unofficial content (ie. should not void warranty). It will allow you to boot an emulated nand off external storage instead of the internal nand memory (i.e. initiate an exploit to launch Casper which redirects to load an emulated NAND).
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
On a related note, did you know you can make a nand backup on a virgin wii before even installing the homebrew channel or bootmii? Inside ModMii's support folder is a file called "Casper2BootMii.bat", run it and ModMIi will save Casper and bootmii files to the right places so that you can make a nand backup directly from an exploit.
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h1>USB-Loader Setup Guide Usage</h1>
|
|
|
|
Set up a USB-Loader to save\play backups of your games to\from an external hard drive.
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h1>HackMii Solutions Usage</h1>
|
|
|
|
You should only need this particular wizard to correct problems caused by inferior and outdated softmods like 'cIOScorp' or 'DarkCorp'.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
The HackMii Installer can't run properly on Wiis that have been overly or improperly modified. If the HackMii installer freezes, or your Homebrew Channel is upside-down or you get a no vulnerable IOS error, this guide will resolve the issue.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
For those interested in the specifics, this wizard will instruct you to launch a WAD Manager via an exploit and install some clean IOSs that the HackMii Installer likes (e.g. IOS58).
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
<h1>sysCheck Updater</h1>
|
|
|
|
Syscheck is a homebrew application you can run on wii's that have already been modified. As its name implies, it will CHECK your SYStem and save a report to your SD card. If you open your sysCheck.csv log with ModMii it will analyze your setup and identify which mods are out of date. ModMii will prompt you to download only the files required to update your softmod and build a custom guide for you to follow.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
You can analyze a log by dragging it onto ModMii.exe or a shortcut for it - or you can launch the syscheck updater from ModMii's main menu and browse for your log like a caveman ;)

<h1>ModMii Command Line Usage</h1>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Send cmd line instructions to ModMii to perform various instructions. To see the help menu just open a cmd window where ModMii.exe is saved and type "ModMii Help" then press enter.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
This is actually how ModMiiSkin works. You could write your own apps that call ModMii to do the heavy lifting! Just please remember to give credit, and heck you can email or message me on gbatemp if you'd like to collaborate!
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
<h1>ModMii File Cleanup</h1>
|
|
|
|
Remove unnecessary files from your SD Card after you're done softmodding your Wii.
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h1>ModMii's Sneek Installer</h1>
|
|
|
|
Instead of having your wii read\write to the internal memory you can have it use external storage. That's like being able to make a backup of your Wii and load it on a friend's console!
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
Use ModMii to assist you in setting up and installing neek or neek2o which are SD/USB NAND/ES emulation kits for the Wii. This allows you to load an emulated NAND from an SD Card or a FAT32 formatted USB Hard Drive. This means you can carry a backup of personal system menu with all your game saves with you and load it on any Wii. If using neek+di/neek2o+di you can even load games from your external Hard Drive in the disc-channel. An emulated NAND is required to load neek/neek2o, but ModMii can help you with that too!
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h1>Emulated NAND Builder</h1>
|
|
|
|
Build an emulated NAND that you can load using neek/neek2o or other tools like mighty channels or triiforce. ModMii allows you to choose from various options when customizing your emulated NAND.
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h1>Emulated NAND Modifer</h1>
|
|
|
|
Modify an existing emulated NAND. You can install\uninstall Priiloader, install a custom system menu theme and more.
|
|
|
|
<br>
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h1>Game Bulk Extractor (for SNEEK)</h1>
|
|
|
|
neek2o+di supports loading Wii game saved as WBFS files (most common format), but the original neek requires games be extracted to fst format (aka SNEEK Format). To accomplish this you can use ModMii to extract a whole folder of games to fst format.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
Why does this even exist you ask? Two reasons - first because it's grandfathered to support the original neek... but that's lame because you use neek2o right which supports WBFS files which is pretty much the gold standard at this point. Well the second reason because the FST file system by design allows you to see all the individual files that make up a game. So if you want to make some custom levels or tweaks this file system makes it super easy to swap in new files.

<h1>Advanced Downloads: How to make forwarder dols\ISOs</h1>
|
|
|
|
A forwarder is like a shortcut that starts an application, channel or website.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
To build a forwarder, from ModMii classic's main menu, enter "A" for advanced downloads, then enter "F" for Forwarder DOL\ISO Builder.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
Forwarders can be run using the Homebrew Channel, or injected into system menu channels, or installed via Priiloader so you can control what your Wii boots when it first starts up, etc. You can even inject your forwarder into an ISO (which is basically a "game" you can load from a USB Loader to start a different application).
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
Using ModMii You can make forwarders that launch an app (dol or elf file) from an SD Card or a USB Hard Drive, or launch a channel you already have installed on the Wii, or launch the internet channel to a specific webpage.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
If you want to inject your forwarder into another channel\WAD, download Customize Mii from ModMii's download page 2 and use it to load a channel\WAD, and inject your new forwarder.dol that you build with ModMii.

<h1>Advanced Downloads: How to change the version\slot # of a cIOS\IOS</h1>
|
|
|
|
Only for advanced Wii hackers. Only use this function if you know what you're doing.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
From ModMii classic's main menu, enter "A" for advanced downloads. Enter the number corresponding to the IOS or cIOS you would like to modify. You can enter "BETA" if you want to build a different version of the famous d2x cIOS, but the version bundled with ModMii is all you should ever need.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
Then ModMii will prompt enter a new slot number, or version number or apply patches.

<h1>Advanced Downloads: User-Defined Custom Downloads</h1>
|
|
|
|
Only for advanced Wii hackers. Only use this function if you know what you're doing.
|
|
<br><br>
|
|
From ModMii classic's main menu, enter "A" for advanced downloads. Then enter "U" for User-Defined Custom Download. From here you can download and optionally patch an IOS\MIOS\System Menu that isn't listed on ModMii's standard download pages.
|
|
<br><br>
|
