Action Replay Wii

[GMO]

This is also a chance to make a code type document on the Wii AR
I noticed their Terminator is different from E0000000 80008000

D2000000 00000000

00138FD0 7C1F0050
D2000000 00000000

Their Button activators are also the same just with a 90 code type

I think you were right about the codetypes being the same as DS though:

http://doc.kodewerx.org/hacking_nds.html#arcodetypes

So far everything I've seen lines up to the NDS AR CodeTypes.
Will be easy to convert between them.

[Bully@Wiiplaza]

But we aren´t able to use the codejunkies account to post the codes, it´s not ours.
Asking you for updating things would be kinda annoying, probably. :S
By simply looking at the enhacklopedia document, these codes are now pretty easy to understand ;D

EDIT:

Their codes are quite cheap compared to mine though. 8)

EDIT 2:

Can someone help me to port this?[spoiler]

Those are NOT your codes. You can only post codes YOU hacked.
Take them off of the database.

Their work will not be converted and added to GeckoCodes without agreement or permission.

[Bully@Wiiplaza]

I took them off but how come?

Other people also converted AR codes and posted them, just wondering...
Would porting geckocodes to a different region then also be disallowed? Or converting them to F6?
I never get asked when people post my codes somewhere.

[James0x57]

Nobody is supposed to be posting codes they didn't hack themselves...

Porting is very different from changing a codetype. When a code is ported, the original hacker should be mentioned in the note. Same for converting to F6- the original hacker should always be noted.

When simply changing a codetype, the code needs to be under the original hacker because it takes almost no effort to do and can easily be automated...


As I said above, I want to ask them first. If they're fine with it (since it will advertise their product), then I will create an account for "Wii AR" or whatever. (then I will probably give you access to it since you're most interested in converting so far)

[Bully@Wiiplaza]

Anyways, I´m going to wait for an answer, then.

If it doesn´t come, would it be okay to put their codes into F6 and do everything else inside the assembly (increase/decrease or just ram write), still crediting them? This way, I definitely had effords on my side: Decrypting the codes, finding good hooks, writing the assembly, finding good F6 templates and calculating the F4 XOR checksums. xD

[James0x57]

That seems perfectly legit to me! Just please do mention the original hacker is "CodeJunkies" or that it was originally on "Wii AR" and made global.

They're more useful that way too!
Great idea. =)

[Bully@Wiiplaza]

well, that´s the way I normally take for most of my code releases... it needs a Wii and I only had RAM dumps for now.

Good to know that CodeJunkies appears to have done this the legit way.  Nothing wrong with having 2 competing products (GeckoOS and AR) available.

Regarding allowing their codes to be posted on GeckoCodes, my understanding is that if you added something new/innovative to an existing product, it improves the chance that it will be recognized as fair use.  Converting codetypes for interoperability purposes is something new/innovative, and it also qualifies under a copyright rule that states it is legal to modify/copy software if you are doing it for the purpose of enabling interoperability for other hardware/software.

So my guess is that posting converted codes would be legal regardless of permission (assuming credit is given).

That said, it would certainly be better if CodeJunkies said it was okay.

[James0x57]

All true. Still would need it to be under their own account though- to respectfully give credit just as we would to any other hacker.

I haven't got a reply so I'll have to try to find FNG. (got a link for me, GMO?)

[Bully@Wiiplaza]

lol, would be funny to convert some geckocodes to AR and send them to Datel so that they add them to their codelist with credits (hopefully).

What are you guys going to do when the release the Game Genie later this year?
