Wii wants - Image 1This Wii brew app is from tona, and is programmed to "download IOS36 from Nintendo update servers, patch it, and install it as IOS249 -- making a completely functional 'clone' of Waninkoko's cIOS." It's called the cIOS Patchmii Installer rev04.

Apart from that basic function, it also detects IOS249 installed, and when it does, it will attempt uninstallation. So why did tona think of making this "clone"?

Waninkoko's cIOS patches are useful, but a couple of barriers prevent many people from installing it. One, the normal installer requires someone "find," build, or dump an IOS WAD. Two, some people feel an aversion to Waninkoko's applications (on which I have no comment). Patchmii has been out for longer than cIOS, and it's perfect for the task. I finally found a use for cIOS and decided this might be useful in helping surmount the aforementioned barriers.


Here's what's in the changelog of rev04:
  • Move to IOS36
  • Changed patching methods
  • Working and (hopefully) complete clone of cIOS rev04
