I don't understand why the IOS15 to IOS16 patcher needs to unpack the wad. Actually i'm searching a better way to patch IOS15 to IOS16, as you need it anyways if you are at 3.4, but the patcher i found has a different hash stored as my IOS15 returns.

I get:
fb121d8564fea7ae8a3125f0deb629d1f80a43bd
while it should be:
c28c1f36a1a2fd8a11836b50fa3955544b1968db

It seems that there are 3 different IOS15 around with these hashes:
c28c1f36a1a2fd8a11836b50fa3955544b1968db
3f03897ff29f709408eed30c91c411142e21cfae
fb121d8564fea7ae8a3125f0deb629d1f80a43bd

Lol, i thought posting the common key is illegal, but bushing did it months ago:

So i guess everybody is allowed to include the common-key file in all packages you want

Yeah, but also I think that is why WADder was initially removed because it contained the common-key.bin.

and So let me get this clear... I need to upgrade to 3.4 as well to do the ios16? if so I may just wait...I like my 3.2 w/patch mii's and starfall just fine for now.

You are kidding, right? WADder was removed because of the common key? This one?:

I think you missunderstand the functionality of the installer. I always want general purpose tools, this installer works with every firmware version. In the worst case you need IOS16 installed, that's it.

Ok..I was misunderstood about having to upgrade to 3.4 I will try this with 3.2 soon.. Yeah, that was basically why WADder was removed... and they were saying something about some of the Ninty code was in the base.wad file (which is a compiled build "template") which happens to also be included in most, if not all, the channel.wads people are posting about 80% of the time. I know it's all about trying to do this in a "non-pirate" way... I respect others opinions about that unless they are in a thread bitching about how bad the "pirates" make it for the "legit" homebrewers... I never could distinguish the fine line of what is illegal and what is not legal to do on a Wii in particular regions/countries. I don't care. This is all, fun and free information and physically hurts no one... that said.. (I know that was probably not necessary to mention..more directed at the moderators that remove stuff like that)

This with the code in the wad files makes more sense. Is there any wad build completely without nintendo code? (Execpt the homebrew channel i guess, which isn't really available as wad) I mean, i don't know anything about creating wads, but doesn't it require to take one wad and put the stuff you want into it?

Is this a official release? I wouldn't really count it, because i think it's not an official release(i think) and it's not the recent version too.

And if you would use this wad as base to inject your stuff into, this would be as illegal as the other method. But this time you would steal team twiizers code.

I think if you can come up with a fully legit way of doing this it would be great.
I'm all for getting this done without going past any legal boundaries - so thanks for even taking a look at these options and if theres anything i can do to help let me know.

*Update* version 0.31 should now really work with IOS16

Get IOS16:
To get IOS16 the best method is to extract IOS15 with wufe from one of your games(100% legal way so far), or to extract IOS15 from one of your .isos with Trucha Signer or WiiScrubber. Then search the net for a IOS15 to IOS16 patcher, which is said to work with the 3 different versions of IOS15 around. If you patched IOS15 to IOS16, you only need to install it with the regular Wad Mananger and you are ready to use this installer.

the ios15to16 patcher is actually not legal. It still contains Nintendo's code.

I'm not sure, but i guess that's true. That's why i don't post a link to it here.
