Welcome to the all-new WiiLink Patcher GUI!
This application automatically downloads and patches everything you need to get your console setup with WiiLink!
Changelog:
- Initial Release Candidate
Launching the patcher:
Windows:
Simply download the Windows release (onefile or zip) of your choosing, and open the exe! The zip is recommended as it avoids some potential false positives from antiviruses.
macOS:
Download the macOS release for your Mac (x64 for Intel, arm64 for Apple Silicon), and extract it. Then, launch Terminal. Type in xattr -d com.apple.quarantine with a trailing space, drag the patcher app file into the terminal, and press enter. After this, you can just right click the app file and choose Open!
Linux:
Download the Linux release for your computer's architecture and extract it. Then, open a terminal, and use cd to change to the directory you extracted the patcher to. Run chmod +x WiiLinkPatcherGUI to make the patcher executable, and ./WiiLinkPatcherGUI to run it.
Tip
On some Debian and Ubuntu based distros, the patcher may fail to launch with the following error:
qt.qpa.plugin: Could not load the Qt platform plugin "xcb" in "" even though it was found.
You can resolve this by running sudo apt install libxcb-cursor-dev.
Known issues:
- When patching the PAL Forecast Channel, the following exception is thrown:
string indices must be integers, not 'str'. The channel works fine, this is an issue with downloading AnyGlobe Changer, which is triggered after the Forecast Channel finishes patching.
Special thanks
Special thanks to @NinjaCheetah for his help behind the scenes with this program, and all his hard work on libWiiPy!
