Fix the 001 error without a new modchip guide.

**{{909}}** · 30th June 2008

First you will need to get the main.dol using the trucha signer program, as mentioned here.

You will also have to reinject the main.dol in the same way.

Wii Generic Patcher 1.11

Thanks to:
- matsuken for the original video patch
- Waninkoko for Wii Video Mode Changer
- ReturnerS for the Wii Game Language Patcher

Usage
=====

Before you can use any option you need to load a (main).dol file by
pressing "Load" and select your desired file.
After you applied the patches you have to press "Save". Otherwise no
data will be written!

Note: Always watch the log output for errors!

At the moment there are four aspects that can be patched:

1. The "Error 001" drive chip detection
2. The console language detection can be overriden (Wii Game Language Patcher)
3. The video modes can be changed (Wii Video Mode Changer)
4. The "country strings" or whatever you want to all them can be edited
(e.g. These are the strings you need to get cooking mama working)

a) Error 001

Just hit "Search" and let the program (hopefully) find the drive check.
After that just hit "Remove 001".
(The button will display "Restore 001" if the drive check is already disabled.
Consequently pressing "Restore 001" ENABLES the drive check again!)

b) Console language detection

Again just hit search and wait for the search result.
Just select the game's language from the dropdown list and and press
"Patch to new language".

c) Video Modes

Start by pressing "Search" (again...). Now you have three options:
You can either use the NTSC-2-PAL or PAL-2-NTSC button (essentially the
same as the smart patcher from the Wii Video Mode Changer). Both automatically
patch all video modes to PAL or NTSC (NTSC 480p -> PAL 480p and so on).
The last option is the "Advanced" button. You will get a list with all
video modes found in the file. You can edited them individually. Just right
click on a video mode and a popup menu with all available modes will show up.
If you checked the "Change all video modes" before the popup menu will change
all video modes to the selected mode. If you messed up just press cancel and
all changes are discarded. To apply your changes leave the video mode list by
pressing "Save".

d) Country Strings

Let's start with something new: Press "Search"!
After that you will see list with the current strings from the file.
(Of course in the same order as they are in the file).
To edit one string double click on the string. Keep in mind that these strings
are always three characters long!

The WiiP Patch File
==================

This is my atempt to make the current patches somewhat better arranged.
The changes applied to a file are saved as readable text in this format:

Offset: OldData NewData

Empty lines or lines starting with ":" are ignored.

Example: NMH NTSC-2-PAL:

CODE
; #########################################
; # WiiP Patch for Wii *.dol executable #
; # generated by #
; # Wii Generic Patcher 1.10 #
; #########################################

; ### NTSC-2-PAL ###
004C4453: 00 14
004C448F: 02 16
004C44CB: 08 04
004C44CE: 01E001E0 02100210
004C44D8: 01E0 0210

a) Create a WiiP Patch

If you want to create a WiiP Patch you just need to apply the patches as usual
with patcher. Just hit "Save WiiP" instead of "Save" at the end and a .wip
file will be generated in the same directory as the .dol

b) Apply a WiiP Patch

Open the *.dol you want to patch. Press "WiiP Patcher" and a new window will come up.
Either write/paste a patch into the text field or load a .wip file from disk.
Then press apply patch (or respectively undo patch if you want to undo).
Finally you have to hit "Save" again to write the changes to the real file on the harddisk.

Please note this will not work on Wii's updated to version 3.3 (june 16th update).

tried big beach sports pal on the boys wii it works running wii-key with update.so what chips is this causing probs with? i think his wii is fully updated its at his mums? or is this just running ntsc/pal game on the opposite region machine?

wiikey doesnt have an issue with the 001 protection, only chips such as the 12f629 homebrew pics running wiinja v1/v2, wiifree code which cannot be updated are a problem.
