Riivolution is an on-the-fly game patcher created by AerialX, tueidj, Tempus, and megazig for use with retail discs. It allows users to place content on their SD or USB devices, as well as on a RiiFS server, which will be read by the game during regular play.
It can be used for custom textures, music, levels, memory patches, game translations, and more. Riivolution is supported on console and Dolphin since version 5.0-15407. For older versions of Dolphin, you will need to patch your ISO.
Installation
To install Riivolution, extract the apps folder from the download onto an SD card and run Riivolution from the Homebrew Channel. Bannerbomb can also be used.
Once installed, you'll need to acquire patches to begin customizing your gameplay. Visit the Patch Templates page or consult the FAQ for more information on how to get started.
User guide
FAQ
Q. Does Riivolution work with my "backups" or USB loaders?
No. And that's not a bug.
Q. Does Riivolution work with my PAL/NTSC/JAP Wii/game?
Yes.
Q. What IOS does it need installed?
Riivolution requires an updated IOS37; if you're on System Menu 4.2 you should be good. If it's not installed or the proper version, it will be installed the first time Riivolution is run.
Alternatively, you can also use NUSD or DOP-IOS to install it - with all patches disabled.
Q. Does Riivolution work with Game X?
I probably haven't played it, but yes, it should; try it. If it doesn't work, report it - some games known to reload IOS will require specific patches to work.
Games that have specifically been tested include Fatal Frame 4, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Rock Band, among others.
Q. What does the "Install" button do?
It will install a Riivolution channel onto your System Menu for easy access. This can always be uninstalled.
Q. Can I use Ocarina / Gecko codes with it?
Normally, Riivolution just supports direct memory patches. However, Riivolution supports a patching method that can be used with the Gecko OS code handler.
Read more about that here.
Q. Can I add new files to a disc with Riivolution?
Not yet.
Q. Uhh, how do I use this?
As a user, you need to either download patch packages made by someone else or make your own.
A basic template and packages for common games can be found at the Patch Templates section. For a more detailed explanation about Riivolution's patch XML files, check out the instructions.
Q. Network support? Awesome, how do I use it?
Read more about all of Riivolution's network features. You can also check out our list of all the known public Riivolution servers.
