    Default Wiikey update Questions..????

    OK guys I have been avoiding the update to 1.9g on my wiikey for a while now but I want to update so I can run SMG.

    I have the my wii console completely up to date from nintendo and the wiikey is at the standard 1.* not sure (mick might know..)
    Do I just get the update disc and install the update or is there certain steps I need to follow...?

    Cheers
    Shagga

    You need the 1.9g disk, need to pad it out to 1.4g ( the GC disk size ).

    Then you need the 1.3 Wii Key config disk. what ver of it you use depends if you have a GC remote or not. If you do you can use the GCOS 1.3 Wii Key config also padded to 1.4g.

    You can find pre padded files for both out there somewhere.

    Run the 1.9g disk first, then the config disk.

    I did some extensive reading about it all but could never get my damn Wii to do it. Kept getting the " check your connections" error. I keep meaning to sort it all out but it got put in the too hard basket for now.

    Most people don't need to do this (nero/imgburn/alcohol does a pretty good job), but it doesn't hurt.

    Just have a read of this before you go ahead.

    Cheers Guys...I actually found all I needed in a Word Doc located at micksxboxmods website and have done the update without any problems at all...
    The Wii was update to the latest from nintendo and the wiikey was standard, so I just burned the Pal iso of the 1.9g and followed the instructions and presto..!!!!!....Homers voice said something, didnt catch it though...lol
    Although when I put the Super Mario Galaxy disc in, it didnt do any update, it just ran and worked fine. So no double channels, I guess the SMG update is probably older than the one that was already on my Wii from nintendo.
    I have tested my gamecube stuff as well and all seems fine.

    Props to Mick for hosting that information, much appreciated...

    Props to RHCP for writing some of this! With his permission, I used his great tutorial and added a fair bit to it to have the 'mother of all' Wii tutorials to help ppl out.

    Are you serious mick?

    I spent hours (heaps of hours) writing up my wiki and 80% of what is in your word document is a direct copy of my work. Not editing, direct. I write my wiki to support ozmodchip customers, and you Mick, are not a customer.


    My work =
    Your document =


    1.9g -

    Burning games written by my mate, for me! -

    Bricking your wii --



    How about a public apology and totally removing the document and starting from scratch?

    You can't host that on your server without my permission mate.
    I will give you 24 hours.

    Thats pretty poor form. I have had a number of incidents of people knocking off my work and claiming it as their own over the years and I can understand why you would be annoyed about it. There is no excuse for word for word theft of other peoples work and then putting your own name to it.

    You give 24hrs and then what? I think you better lighten up before you blow a gasket.
    What would you do if your server was stolen or failed beyond repair?

    Why should i lighten up.
    Getting your work stolen is not funny to me

    Its not only my work, but it is the work of other that i have paid for. I pay money for work, someone plagiarizes it with no references at all, and you think i should calm down?

    You gotta be kidding me!

    Well if you were the one and only person who wrote the information down for the world to see I might feel for you, but being that you have obtained the information from others hard work and I dont see any references to them nor do I see them screaming at you to take it down, what makes you different. Now if the information was copyrighted then I could understand it, but its not, its simply rehashed from all the other sites out there. You should feel proud that someone felt your information was written well enough to use. I wont say anything further as this is really between you and Mick, and not me. Though I really think you should sit back and actually take a look at what your getting upset over.

    You seem to be responding without reading


    2 or so articles on the wiki from other sites that are referenced at the top of the page.

    2 or 3 articles written by people that I have paid
    ALL other articles are written 100% by me.

    Jeez, anyone would think he had stolen a thesis......or something of real importance.

    Mick probably put his name on the document because of me.

    I wrote a small basic beginners guide to wii backups (which is ), he asked if he could use it and i said of course, and if he wanted to, he could put our names at the bottom.

    He's just pasted other things in (2 articles without reference) and forgotten about the names at the bottom. Although, I suppose that doesn't help.

    Cheers, RHCP.

    Importance is relative to the person.

    If my day job is running ozmodchips.com then its very important to me.
    Im up at 4.10am right now still working!

    If its not a big deal and everyone thinks it is so easy then write one yourself - Make your own wiki, or just link to mine. Just don't plagiarize my work and badge it as your own.

    FFS Ryan, I will remove all your content and write my own(as will be better anyway) , this was just a quick thing I threw together to assist Wii owners, nothing more, nothing less.

    Lighten up does come to mind, I find websites copying my stuff all the time. I admit once "I cracked the sads" but it will get you know where.
    You will find this on other sites already too.

    btw, didn't see any copyright details on it???

    If it was a quick thing they you could have just linked the website

    Or are you afraid of conflict of interest? You know, your customers going to a competitors website? Because that it the whole point here, you are 'supporting' your customers with something from a competitors website. That is not you supporting them, thats me supporting them.

    You know its not ethical to copy, so you should not be doing it.

    I guess it just makes you seem like a bit of a hypocrite to me.

    You have referred to me on a public forum as a "wanker, little prick, little asshole". If so then why are you copying my work?
    And why won't you admit that it is wrong, how arrogant can one man possibly be?

    I'm not buying in to this argument but I have to laugh at this comment from someone who installs Modchips, sells DS cards etc etc etc...

    I agree 100% OzModChips.

    Ozchips has had its site copied many many times over the years and one idiot actually started trading as and immediately went to work ripping people off whilst pretending to be ozchips.

    That little episode caused and its owner lots of grief including many threats of legal action from unhappy campers.

    I understand why your so angry about this and quite frankly would be too in this situation. It is extremely poor to say the least.
