It's only been a few days since the initial release of the WriteELF homebrew application for the Nintendo Wii, and Brakken has sent us word that WriteELFv1.6 is now available.
In case you missed our coverage last time, WriteELF is basically brainchild of homebrew developer cybermind that allows users to write ELF files onto their SD card using their Windows PC. The ability to load ELF files onto the Wii was, in turn, made possible by the release Twilight Hack v0.1 Alpha 2, so-called because of its origins in an exploit discovered in the Wii game, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess.
The following new features have been included in WriteELF v1.6, according to Brakken:
* NOW WORKS IN VISTA! (HUGE thanks to predakang of #wiidev@efnet)
* allow -z option to be used without writing a file
* added url to output header
Before you try it out, a caveat from the developer: "this will (by design) corrupt any file occupying the 16384 sectors starting with sector 2048, so just don't leave anything important on the card." As always: be sure to read the documentation included in the archive. For additional instructions, please refer to cybermind's directions care of the source link below.
