Tutorial How to Change vWii System settings in WiiMode (via SettingsEditorGUI v1.6)

[Plunt]

New Settings Editor GUI Channel Forwarder for vWii !
Works with the following paths:
SD :\apps\settingseditorgui\boot.dolSD :\apps\SettingsEditorGui\boot.dolSD :\apps\SettingsEditorGUI\boot.dolSD :\apps\Settings Editor GUI\boot.dolUSB :\apps\settingseditorgui\boot.dolUSB :\apps\SettingsEditorGui\boot.dolUSB :\apps\SettingsEditorGUI\boot.dolUSB :\apps\Settings Editor GUI\boot.dol
Please test, if it works I will add it to the Channel Forwarders thread !

asper, the forwarder is working and returns with settings saved. The problem is it seems to be using the same memory location as that latest GenPlus-gx forwarder you did, meaning you can't have both installed at the same time. One will overwrite the other every time. Otherwise working great, if you could fix this that would awesome.
Edit: Though through MMM it will still have both forwarders installed, and allow to uninstall both but only one will display on the menu. In order to get whichever the first of the two you installed to show back up you have to uninstall both first, close MMM, then re-install the wad you want.

I used fix94 one, have I to rebuild it with yours?

I linked to FIX94's NAND loader, so it's fine.

Solved the problem rebuilding the sega genesis forwarder; now it should be fine (delete both and try to reinstall them); test and tell me if it's ok now (you have to re-downlaod the genesis forwarder only).

You are right
I tryed to make a full Channel with 1.8 version basing it on IOS236 but the homebrew reboot the vWii; any idea on how to solve that ? I think that a full Channel will be good for that kind of application.

That did the job. Great work, much appreciated

Why did Nintendo lock the settings in the first place??

Wait till I release v1.9 later today before trying anything else.

So settings wouldn't be managed in two different places.

Oh, and here I was thinking it was them being lazy. Emulators look worse on the vWii mode versus a real Wii. I'll take pictures if I have to but whatever. Nevertheless, I'm glad there are people out there (like you) who give people the option to change it.

I've updated SE GUI. Link in my signature.

So I updated to 1.9 working great launching and saving from HBC. However if I launch via the forwarder it loads correctly but hangs on a black screen after selecting save and exit or exit without saving. Not sure if this is a forwarder issue or the app, the previous release worked fine with the forwarder.

Edit: I tried removing the ploader folder from my SD (I wasn't using it before) still hanging upon exit.

The only relevant changes that MIGHT affect it are the IOS patches.

You are welcome to try out the channel I made, although it hasn't been tested so use at your own risk:

Can you, or anyone else confirm if the banner is working on this, I don't have Dolphin or an original Wii at my disposal.

 

[JoostinOnline]

It worked fine in Dolphin, but my Wii is currently disconnected so I haven't been able to test it.

Installed, and launches correctly. Still freezing on exit.

Try this one:

I've changed the channel IOS to 236.

Same issue, check PM

I build a full channel with v1.9 and now it correctly loads but same issue when exiting; you should try to send a "reset" or "go back to system menu" command on exit instead of a "go back to loader" (I think this is the problem but I can be wrong).

 

[JoostinOnline]

I'm investigating the issue. Until then, you can try messing with this:

I built one that accepts a "reset" argument, along with a forwarder dol for it. I haven't tested it at all though. Would you like to mess around with it? I'll send it in a PM if you do.

Of course, I will test. With "accepts a reset argument" you mean that on exit you can choose the way to exit ?

This is a Settings Editor GUI FULL CHANNEL; this version correctly exits to System Menu without hanging.

Many thanks to JoostinOnline and driverdis !
