    THIS VIDEO IS OUTDATED, GO HERE --> th-cam.com/video/F1Spzs9j5Zk/w-d-xo.html
    FAQ:
    Q: I have a wbfs, how can I get an iso file?
    A: Use a wbfs to iso converter
    Q: When I tried using wimms iso tools (wit), it had an error.
    A: I didn't make this program, so I can only troubleshoot based on my own experience. Make sure that you follow the video closely. Spell everything correctly, have spaces in-between each section and, when extracting, keep the folder name as one connected string of characters (so "AnExample" would work, but "An Example" would not).
    Q: Where can I get an iso file?
    A: Dump it from your wii, which has tutorials on youtube. There are piracy sites as well, but those will likely give wbfs files (and also I won't be linking or telling you which ones for obvious reasons).

    Would this work with files from things like Retro Rewind? So the game aswell as the mod is one iso file that could also be used for Netplay?

    • @-Comet.
      @-Comet.  ปีที่แล้ว

      Not for retro rewind, thats done through riivolution and adds onto a normal mkwii iso file.
      Here is what what my friend and I do for retro rewind for netplay:
      1. Make sure we have the same version of it.
      2. When in dolphin and doing "start with riivolution patches", set all of the settings to be identical to each other. Then, save it as a preset, and make sure to give an identical name (it is case specific) for the preset.
      3. When starting a netplay session, use the new json file that has been created
      This method works for all riivolution distributions (so mario kart midnight as well). Just make sure everything is identical across both devices.

      @@-Comet. I think all 3 of us have different file sizes when we just created the file the same way with the same files. I know we both have Retro Rewind Enabled and Everything Inside Drift Enabled as well. This is such a hassle. Do the MK WII ROM's need to be the same dump/file extension as well. Because i use a different one to my friends, (I scanned it in Dolphin i have a "Good dump" the others have a "bad dump") but for vanilla it works fine regardless. So I'm questioning this out of curiosity but it shouldn't matter i'd imagine.

      Not sure what the old way is, but this is a tutorial on making your own custom distribution. If the goal is to play something like midnight or retro rewind, its a different process using riivolution. Retro Rewind in particular has an install tutorial document when you download it.

      The dolphin games folder is just the path I use for locating iso files in Dolphin Emulator, you can make a folder and create a path throigh dolphin emulator itself.
      I'm not quite sure why your disc file shows up as a disc image, so I'd recommend watching a tutorial on extracting a wii disc to pc. (You could also get one from a rom site like vimms, but this isn't technically legal)

      1. Your account lacks permissions to create files, try using one with administrator permissions
      2. Wit got installed incorrectly, try installing again
      3. There's a typo in the creation of the file, make sure that the ` symbols are surrounding only the iso file, nothing else.

    when i get to the last part it say tmp file and doesnt show up on dolphin

    • @-Comet.
      @-Comet.  ปีที่แล้ว

      Tmp means temp file, this means the process is incomplete. Try to ensure that the process is complete by giving the program an extra few seconds before you close it.
      You can also try refreshing the containing folder and seeing if the tmp file disappears, if it doesn't then the process never completed.
      And ofc, always make sure that Dolphin has access to the folder containing isos. I've messed that up a lot, as moving stuff around (or, in my case, renaming folders) causes dolphin to lose the path. If this happens, just edit the dolphin config and make a new path.

    the id in dolphin shows RMCE01 when i changed it as you showed any reason why?

    • @-Comet.
      @-Comet.  ปีที่แล้ว

      2 possible reasons I can think of:
      1. You didn't save the hex edit, just do ctrl + s (I believe it should be command s on mac, not certain)
      2. You never properly reseales the iso. Ensure that you copy the folder, and you aren't duplicating the iso.
      If neither of these work, let me know

      1. There's no admin privileges on the account you're trying to use
      2. The file you're using isn't compatible with the program I used. If using a nkit file, I believe there are nkit converters, but I'm not fully aware of that type of thing. You could always try to download an iso file from the internet, though I'm not gonna link anything for that.

      1. Maybe your antivirus is conflicting with wit. There's a chance that allowing wit to run as an exception could fix this, though I'm not sure how likely this is.
      2. Wit didn't install correctly, so maybe try reinstalling? (I doubt this if you got error 76, but it's worth trying)
      3. I think dolphin emulator does have a way to unzip iso files, though I do not personally have any experience with it. You can try looking into that.
      If none of these work, then I'm not sure what the issue is, so I'm not able to help. If you want to play custom tracks and don't care about particular ones, there's something called Mario Kart Midnight that has plenty in it. I've never played this, but I heard it's well made.

      That error usually occurs when the program gets confused as to what you wanted to type. It's telling you that it expected to recieve a command, and instead it recieved the term "mario", which is not listed as a command.
      The most common fix is to re-open the powershell window, and ensure you type the command exactly correct. So either "Wit copy" or "Wit extract", depending on the step you are on.
