Can't install system menu 4.1E(U) on Wii 4.3E(U) #11

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Get a 4.3E(U) Wii and try to downgrade it to 4.1E(U)
2. Install IOS60v6174 wad (non stub system ios for 4.1)
3. Install 4.1 system menu wad: v450 for EUR or v449 for USA 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I get this error:

Can't get the SM region
Please check the site for updates
ERROR! (ret = -999)

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
r25 on Wii 4.3E

Please provide any additional information below.
I'm pretty sure the issue is in regionlist array inside wad.c source.
Currently last row of the regionlist array is
{512, 'E'}, {513, 'E'}, {514, 'P'}, {518, 'K'},
As you can see there are wrong version/region pairs for 4.3E and 4.3U.
It should be
{512, 'E'}, {513, 'P'}, {514, 'E'}, {518, 'K'},

Hope that helps :)

Also I suggest you the following improvement:
instead of returning an error when the region of the system menu already 
installed is different from the region of the wad, you could warn the user 
about the mismatching region and give him the chance to proceede anyway.
It would be useful to fix semibricked wii (opera error) having a system menu 
with wrong region.

I have a bricked wii, and this is the only way to unbrick it. This needs to be 
a warning because I cant install the systems menu.
