Welcome to the WiiLink Patcher!
This application automatically downloads and patches everything you need to get your console setup with WiiLink!
Changelog:
- Pin PySide6 version back to 6.9
- Fixes compatibility with older macOS versions
- Improved error messages
- Now returns nicer messages for common errors, rather than always spitting out the full traceback
- Output path is now selected by the end user rather than defaulting to
~/Downloads/WiiLink - Flatpak packaging is now supported! The application will be added to Flathub following this release
- Fix a crash when closing the app - the fact thread is now only started when in use, and peacefully terminated

Windows:
Simply download the Windows release (onefile or zip) of your choosing, and open the exe!
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.
