Wii Channel Creation I'm actually curious about the possibility of Wii Channel creation, or applications to be opened via System Menu, like the Hombrew Channel. I believe these are called "banners", and you can create weird animations/music for it. ...Uggh, if you do not get the point, I want to make something that can be opened in the System Menu, like the HBC. If somebody could release instructions/code for the ability, it would be greatly appreciated.http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,17505#msg-17505Sat, 18 Jul 2026 11:20:27 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,19040#msg-19040 Re: Wii Channel Creationhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,19040#msg-19040 1cefire Homebrew GeneralWed, 03 Jun 2009 01:11:02 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,18922#msg-18922 Re: Wii Channel Creationhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,18922#msg-18922

U8 Tool - "System Error &H8007007E (-2147024770). The specified module could not be found"
"U8 Unpack IMET Fail"
Any idea?
Install Microsoft Forms 2.0 -- easily found on google from the MS website. The next version will be multiplatform and not need this, which is good, but for now you have to install that (it comes with MS Office as well)
Got Forms installed but get message anyways. Then again my computer is a POS so it could be many things. Guess I'll just have to wait for the release not dependent on Forms]]> Jigen Homebrew GeneralTue, 02 Jun 2009 04:44:56 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,18907#msg-18907 Re: Wii Channel Creationhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,18907#msg-18907

Aw, crud! If I knew that something like this could BRICK my Wii, then I wouldn't have asked!
Oh, and if that's illegal then, I would just forget about it.
No need for all the users to download all the required tools, et cetera.
Just, nevermind.

Just install Preloader from WiiBrew or BootMii as boot2, and you can't brick from this -- if it bricks you, just boot into HBC and delete it!]]> 1cefire Homebrew GeneralMon, 01 Jun 2009 16:10:57 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,18823#msg-18823 Re: Wii Channel Creationhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,18823#msg-18823wadder.net] - that has a bunch of tutorials under "Editing banners with benzin".

If you just want a simple custom channel for a homebrew app --- try WADder on WiiBrew with the "Static" base WAD (that is a LEGAL base, and all channels made from it are legal too). Just select the WAD in the first tab, enter a title in the second, and in the third select a new DOL file. Then click create, and you will get an editor to replace the banner and icon of the channel, click continue and save your WAD. Then install with the WAD Installer of choice ;). Feel free to share them too -- these channels with that "static" base are completely legal.]]> 1cefire Homebrew GeneralMon, 01 Jun 2009 15:52:33 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,18821#msg-18821 Re: Wii Channel Creationhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,18821#msg-18821 Jigen Homebrew GeneralMon, 01 Jun 2009 15:33:01 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,18731#msg-18731 Re: Wii Channel Creationhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,18731#msg-18731Here's the link.]]> WaxyPumpkin72 Homebrew GeneralMon, 01 Jun 2009 00:05:23 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,17549#msg-17549 Re: Wii Channel Creationhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,17549#msg-17549BRICK my Wii, then I wouldn't have asked!

Yeah, because that's totally not based on stolen stuff and absolutely gives people the full power of the file format.

Wadder is illegal? I thought he came out with a new version that eliminated illegal activity. Might be wrong though.:/]]> WaxyPumpkin72 Homebrew GeneralThu, 21 May 2009 18:18:03 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,17543#msg-17543 Re: Wii Channel Creationhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,17543#msg-17543
But, not the code is failing and I can not figure out why. I haven't changed it, so it appears something in the WII is interfering with the ES_AddTicket call, which is suddenly returning error -4353 which is not detailed on WIIBrew's wiki, so I don't know what the error is trying to tell me... :(

In any case, it is based on a variety of thing including PatchMII, Ticket/TMD/Content descriptions from WIIBrew, and a few other sources.

Anyone know what error -4353 from ES_AddTicket means?

Also, for this application how would I access the titles data in flash? From what I have seen it seems like I need to:
ES_Identify
ES_GetTitleID
ES_GetTitleDir

Am I on the right track?

EDIT - Updated with correct error code.]]> shardrillMorden Homebrew GeneralThu, 21 May 2009 17:44:51 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,17532#msg-17532 Re: Wii Channel Creationhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,17532#msg-17532 henke37 Homebrew GeneralThu, 21 May 2009 15:16:23 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,17515#msg-17515 Re: Wii Channel Creationhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,17515#msg-17515 WaxyPumpkin72 Homebrew GeneralThu, 21 May 2009 05:41:30 +0200 http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,17505#msg-17505 Wii Channel Creationhttp://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?21,17505,17505#msg-17505I believe these are called "banners", and you can create weird animations/music for it.
