Wii files now public on Redump

[Bombastisch]

Dolphin emulator just now implements hash-checking dumps in Dolphin itself.

Apparently the wii database has been made public, too? Although i cannot fully find the exact information.

There is this Dolphin Pull Request, which implements the feature: https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/8330

And there is a link to the forum on redump where it has been discussed: http://forum.redump.org/topic/21708/redump-integration-in-dolphin/

"It currently doesn't work, but the code is written so that it automatically will start working once the datfile becomes public. Thankfully, having a datfile for Wii games is less important than for GameCube games since Wii games have a lot of verification data built in."

http://redump.org/datfile/gc is the only public DATfile of the two, right now.

It performs this through an API that they've developed.

The code seems to just DL the DATfile - while Wii is still private, the GCN datfile could be DLed from Redump directly

This thread is old, but there is an update to this situation. I recently checked their website again, and the wii file is now public.

Right now cleanrip downloads files using gc-forever-- There is old code that downloaded them directly from redump, though.
