Pimp My Wii will Hack your Wii, install missing or outdated IOS/titles, install the cIOS and mIOS necessary.

The program will detect missing or outdated IOS and check that you have the latest version of the Wii System Menu. It also checks if you have the latest versions of BC, MIOS and those channels: Wii Shop, News, Weather, Mii, Photo and Photo 1.1.

If you don't have the latest versions of those titles, the program will download them, or read them from USB or SD to install them. When using this program, you will have all advantages from 4.1 cumulated from those of 3.2, and this without drawbacks.

It also install cIOS d2x (based on Waninkoko) (249, 250) v10 and v10 alt and cIOS from Hermes 202/222/223/224 rev5.1. You can, if you want, install the cIOS from Waninkoko rev20/21 or d2x v6, 7, 8 or 9beta (you'll have to install it manually from the menu "Install cIOS"). Pimp installs the cMIOS from WiiGator.

Note: Please use at your own risk.

User guide

Pimp warns you if ever some homebrews are not up to date. Pimp checks the following homebrew versions (folder names must match, and are not case sensitive):

Neogamma, in version R9 beta 50 minimum (Dirname: neogamma).
Usb Loader gx, in version 2.2 minimum (Dirname: usbloader_gx).
Uloader, in version 5.1 minimum (Dirname: uloader).
Wiiflow, in version 2.2 (or r302) minimum (Dirname: wiiflow).
Configurable usb loader, in version 70 minimum (Dirname: usbloader or usbloader_cfg).

Pimp does not update these homebrews on its own. No check will be made on the installed channels, only on the files present on the SD card in /apps/.

The homebrew is automatically displayed in French, English, Italian, German or Spanish depending on the language of the console. It is also Wii compatible NTSC-U, NTSC-J and PAL (Korean Wii theoretically compatible).

Warning: The author is not responsible if you don't have any protection against bricking and you brick your Wii with this tool.

Install a cIOS of your choice between cIOS from Hermes, Waninkoko and Waninkoko d2x. You can choose the IOS source of your choice, the destination slot and the revision.
For Waninkoko's/d2x cIOS, you can choose this IOS source: IOS36 v3607 IOS37 v5662 IOS38 v4123 IOS53 v5662 IOS55 v5662 IOS56 v5661 IOS57 v5918 IOS58 v6175 IOS60 v6174 IOS61 v5661 IOS70 v6687 IOS80 v6943 (IOS 58 only for revision above 20).
For the Hermes cIOS, you have the choice between IOS60 v6174, IOS38 v3867, IOS37 v3869 and IOS57 v5661.

Minus key:

"Minus" key: "safe mode". In this mode, IOS testing is disabled, instead you must choose an IOS to use for the installation.
Be aware that in this mode, you will not know if your installed IOS have the various bugs, and therefore the program will not know if the IOS you have installed need to be patched.

Note: Pimp my Wii is compatible with the Wii emulator on WiiU, but some options are disabled. In addition, you will necessarily need to place the WAD files on your SD card / USB key because it is impossible to download Nintendo IOS for the WiiU directly.

Common Problems

Here is a lit of common problems that you could have on your Wii (even on latest version) and the solutions that Pimp My Wii will do.

Black screen when loading games via DVD.

Missing IOS -> Install these IOS (by patching them).

Update request when inserting games.

Old IOS -> Update IOS (by patching them).

A modified game (trucha signed) can't load on the disc channel with my modchip.

The IOS used by game has the trucha bug fixed -> Install a new IOS and patch the bug back.
The IOS used by system menu has the trucha bug fixed -> Install a new IOS and patch the bug back.

The preloader and other homebrew does not work.

The IOS36 has the ES_Identify patched -> Install a new IOS 36 and patch the bug.

I got reading problems with my backup launcher.

Old cIOS installed (older than rev20) -> Ask user to update this.

No SD menu, no latest functionnality.

Old version of Wii (system menu, by example 3.2) -> Upgrade to 4.1 (but patching everything) for more compatibility/functionality.

The Wii Shop ask me to update.

Old version of Wii Shop (older than v20) -> Upgrade to this version (and install the associated IOS 56).

I don't have any IOS that contains the trucha bug flaw (if you have a Wii without any modification).

The homebrew put the trucha bug back in IOS15.

I can't install the Hackmii Install, because I have some kind of cIOSCorp.

You need a. unmodified IOS 58 -> Install this IOS.

Note: Leave the default settings if you don't know what you are doing! Wrong choice of hacks could make your system unstable.

FAQs

Q. Does it works without internet? / I got errors during download, what can I do?

It works without internet, you have to place the necessary wad files at the root of the SD card or a USB device in FAT32.

Follow this (French) tutorial to get those files: http://www.wii-info.fr/article-53-comment-recuperer-un-ios-mios-chaine.htm

The required IOS are, in their specific versions: 9 v1034, 12 v526, 13 v1032, 14 v1032, 15 v1032, 17 v1032, 21 v1039, 22 v1294, 28 v1807, 30 v2576, 31 v3608, 33 v3608, 34 v3608, 35 v3608, 36 v3608, 37 v5663, 38 v4124, 50 v4889, 53 v5663, 55 v5663, 56 v5662, 57 v5919, 58 v6175, 60 v6174, 61 v5661, 70 v6687 and 80 v6944.

As well as the following "stub" IOS, in their specific versions: IOS4v65280, IOS10v768, IOS11v10, IOS16v512, IOS20v12, IOS41v3607, IOS43v3607, IOS45v3607, IOS46v3607, IOS48v4124, IOS51v4633 and IOS254v260.

IOs must be named this way: IOSX-64-vY.wad, where X and Y are respectively the version and revision number.

To update the System Menu, you need the file RVL-WiiSystemmenu-vX.wad, where X is 448 for 4.1J, 449 for 4.1U, 450 for 4.1E and 454 for 4.1K.

For Wii Shop, you need RVL-Shopping-v20.wad
For bc, RVL-bc-v6.wad
For MIOS, RVL-mios-v10.wad
For other channels, XY-NUS-vZ.wad, where X is the "type", Y the number and Z the version. By example for Mii Channel it's 1000248414341-NUS-v6.wad (or RVL-NigaoeNR-v6.wad).

For the cIOS installation:

- cIOS 249 : IOS 56 rev 5661
- cIOS 250 : IOS 57 rev 5918
- cIOS 202 : IOS 60 rev 6174
- cIOS 222 : IOS 38 rev 3867
- cIOS 223 : IOS 37 rev 3869
- cIOS 224 : IOS 57 rev 5661

Q. I got the preloader, will it work?

If you are not in 4.1 and if you accept the installation of this system menu, you will need to reinstall the preloader and the specifics hacks to this version.

Follow this (French) tutoriel to install and configure preloader: http://www.wii-info.fr/article-52-installer-et-configurer-le-preloader.htm

Q. I have the preloader and i got "system files are corrupted", what can I do?

If you have the preloader, you must patch "ES_Identify" on the IOS used by this.

For Wii 4.x, it's IOS 60, else it's IOS 30. Leave the parameters by default if you don't know what you do.

Q. I have a custom theme, will it stay?

If you change your Wii version, you will lose all themes and you will need to reinstall a compatible theme with the version of System Menu you have.

Q. I have cIOSCorp or equivalent installed (to read backup games from disc channel), what will happened?

If you install IOSes, it will replace those installed by cIOSCorp and you will loose the ability to launch games via disc channel without modchip.

But cIOSCorp isn't recommanded, you just need a loader like Neogamma to read backups. If you reinstall cIOSCorp, you will get your old IOS back then Pimp My Wii will tell you that they are outdated

Q. Should I upgrade my console to 4.1? I thought I must stay to 3.2?

If you use this program to put your console to 4.1, you will have exactly the same advantages as a 3.2 Wii, but you will have the improvements of 4.1.

You won't have any disadvantages to put your Wii to 4.1.

Q. Should I install all IOS asked ?

It is recommended to install IOS indicated as "not present" and IOS 30, 34, 36 and 60.

You should also leave parameters by default. If you install at least those, you will avoid most of problems.

Q. The other IOS, are they useless?

For other IOS, patching them help launching Trucha Signed gamed on Wii with a modchip.

Q. I got a message saying that my Custom IOS is outdated, what can I do?

Follow this (French) tutorial to upgrade your cIOS: http://www.wii-info.fr/article-40-installer-ou-desinstaller-un-custom-ios.htm

There won't be any reboot on bootmii installed as IOS anymore when testing IOS.
It shouldn't do code dump when testing IOS.

Corrected a bug that forced to downgrade the IOS 15 if you would not have a Custom IOS (or an IOS that can downgrade a revision).
Addition of a "safe mode" (press "minus" in the menu to activate). In this mode, the test of IOS is disabled, you must instead choose an IOS to use for the installation. In this mode, you won't be able to know if your installed IOS have the different bugs, and the program won't be able to tell you if the IOS you have need to be patched.
Little reorganization to the list of titles to install.
