Show me a LEGALLY hacked Wii, and I'd think you were cracking up. :P

The RawkSD program can be used for reasonably legitimate means, mainly custom songs and DLC that you own, but it is rather old, and the developers have since moved on to other projects. You may be interested to know that @Larsenv and @DarkMatterCore are trying to tackle the problem of adding customs and DLC back to RB2, and I have been doing some tests of my own to try to overcome the limitations in vWii (since RawkSD never really supported vWii, anyway). We're using alternate methods to atempt this, so please stay posted to my Rock Band Customs thread for updates on the matter.

Heh XD yeah good point about the hacked wii >.>
I still have my original WII, and I just got a cd copy of rock band 2. but i think because my IOS 37 is a CIOS it still won't work. but who knows. the disk arrives today.
I know there are very very complex ways of installing customs to rockband 2. but I never go them to work.

So, some time ago, I got permission from @AerialX to work with what he had on GitHub, so I pulled it to my GitLab project. I didn't work on it until yesterday, and... I'm completely lost. I know some C++ and Python, but in order to remove the time restriction on the beta code, I need to know what I'm looking for.

If anyone knows what I'm talking about, then please help! For those who don't know, it's the RawkSD beta version 3.x, and if I build it and load it on a Wii, it will say that the trial for the beta has expired, and the only known workaround is to set the Wii's time back. Here's the GitLab repo that I have, though I've made some changes that I have yet to push. https://gitlab.com/rock-band-customs/rawksd

I'm assuming you have already searched for that error string in the soucecode? I don't see many things in the search for "trial", "beta", or "expired". Could have sneakily hidden that in binary somewhere but I don't know why they'd care to do so.

    @K3Nv2, RIP Felix does great videos on the PS3 yellow-light-of-death.
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    Eventhough the New 3DS XL is more powerful, I still feel like the DS Lite was a more polished system. It's a real shame that it never got an XL variant keeping the GBA slot. You'd have to go on AliExpress and buy an ML shell to give a DS phat the unofficial "DS Lite" treatment, and that's the best we'll ever get I'm afraid.

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
