Hacking How to Make Custom Health Screens for SoftMii

[nickname]

haha "around the border" of the select image dialog box?

doesnt do anything

 

[HaniKazmi]

yeah. Starts working again for me after a few seconds. If it doesnt, i know which file needs to be chosen again, so i just finish it off manually.

I've tried doing it manually. here is my guess, tell me if I am wrong

First dialog box is asking to choose the healthscreen image. second asks to save as a .tpl.

What do I save the tpl as?

Then U8Pack opens and wants to open a file from the wadunpack. which file do I choose?


... itd be much easier if someone just told me the manual steps.

 

[HaniKazmi]

second one save as temp/it_has_a_US_Eng.tpl

u8 is trying to open health.ash

 

[nickname]

what file do i create once u8 opens the health.ash?

is there literally any guide for the manual steps involved?

thanks for the guide, unfortunately i get to

In this directory, open your DOS window and writes "ash health.ash"

I get "This is not a valid ASH file"

 

[HaniKazmi]

you can skip that step with this version of u8tools, that will unpack it as it is

u8 is trying to open health.ash

When I try to change the .tpl in health.ash, it gives me an error of 35 and then u8 shuts down

are you trying to do this while healthi is running, or manually from the beginning?

It's Proyecto1 giving me the error of "Run-time error '53' File not Found.

Both when trying to run the automated healthii.exe and when trying to do it manually. It asks me if I want to replace the file, i choose yes, then bam i get this runtime error.

If i click on timg directory in U8 packer and then add the file i get a slightly different error message

"Run-time error '35605'; This item's control has been deleted.

1) Go to hackmii dot com
2) Find the semi-brick-fix discs
3) Download the correct disc for your region
4) Run Trucha Signer, WiiScrubber, or WUFE and extract the systemmenu.wad off of the disc.
5) This is the WAD to use with Healthii!

Here is the solution:

Run the steps manually.

Drag your systemmenu wad onto wadunpacker.exe

open tpl.exe and read image. choose your boot image, then choose save tpl as it_Has_a_US_ENG.tpl

close tpl and open u8comp.exe. Open file and then go to Healthii\wadunpack0000001_app_out\layout\common and open health.ash

click on it_Has_a_US_ENG.tpl and then click "add file". Browse to the tpl you saved earlier it_Has_a_US_ENG.tpl. Replace the existing one and then choose "create file" and save this as the health.ash you just opened.

go into Healthii\wadunpack and duplicate 00000002.app and rename to 00000001.app.

now run u8tool.exe, choose the new 00000001.app and then choose pack.

now rename the 00000042.app and use softmii to install.


if anyone sees any flaws in this please let me know. it seemed to work great for me

Y0u forgot to extract 00000001.app in the first place

and the duplicating 00000002.app is rubbish. just choose 00000001.appp_out as the archive folder, remover .out from the file name above and press pack.
