  • Updated logic of tool (now you only need to drag and drop the ISO/WBFS file of the game into the "drag&drop.bat" file).

TODO:

  • Add update of Superstar Mario Galaxy
  • ...

SMG1-Mod-Builder-To-USB-Loader

If you have a question, a problem, want to contribute improving the tool or to request a new hack go to "Issues" and open a new one.

If you have the original disc image of SMG1 or you can use Dolphin then you don't need at all to use this tool, this was designed for those who don't have the original game disc and/or a decent computer to run Dolphin.

Dependencies:

  • None (well, Windows lol).
  • Excitement (optional).

Usage:

  • Drag and drop a SMG1 (Super Mario Galaxy) ISO/WBFS file into the "drag&drop.bat" file.
  • Follow instructions on CMD.

You can either download the hack and place the compressed file at the "mods" folder or let the program download the hack for you.

Recomendations and notes:

Try playing the hacks setting the language of your Wii to English, I tried to play some hacks on Spanish (for example) and when talking to an NPC the game crashed, but on English everything went correctly (it is the most supported language for SMG mods).

I've only tested the hacks with the USA version of SMG2 so I really don't know if the other regional versions work 100%, but they should. If for some reason a rom hack does not work with you, try downloading a different regional copy of SMG1 and try the process again with that other SMG1 file.

Thanks to:

  • The authors of these hacks (yey!).
  • Wiimm for his excellent tool (without it this wouldn't be possible).
  • JoshuaMKW for his GeckoLoader program that allows me to inject much more than the upper limit of Gecko codes into the "main.dol" file (for complex rom hacks).
  • Viktormax3 and Dynexyst (I learnt from their tools how to make this one).
