Wiicm is a native Wii cheat code manager that allows users to manage cheat codes for use with WiiRd codes and the GeckoOS/Ocarina code handler. The app allows users to select codes from a .txt file and encode them into .gct format. This makes it easy for users to manage and organize their cheat codes, and quickly apply them to their games.

Wiicm is a useful tool for game enthusiasts who want to enhance their gaming experience with cheat codes. The app is simple to use and provides a convenient way to manage cheat codes on the Wii console.

Installation

To install Wiicm, you will need to extract the apps package and create two directories, /codes/ and /txtcodes/ at the root of your SD card. Then, download and install Gecko OS Wii. Next, download cheat codes and save them in the /txtcodes/ directory. You can use the Code Downloader Wii or access the | WiiRD database to find the codes you need. Once all the necessary steps have been completed, you can launch Wiicm and use it to manage and apply cheat codes to your games.

Use

To use the file selection feature, point and click with the A button to select a file or directory. Press the Home button to exit. Note that renaming a .txt file (for example, renaming "RMGE01.txt" to "galaxy.txt") can aid in file selection. The gct file name is created from the first line of the .txt file. To select a code, click on its name and the red light will turn on while the black light will turn off. Use the MORE or BACK buttons to navigate through the code list. Once you have finished code selection, press the Home button. When you see the caution warning, press the A button to create a new gct file and exit, or press the Home button to exit without creating a new file.

Background Music

May cause crashes! Especially with long cheat files such as Super Smash Brothers Brawl. Add file wiicm.ogg to the /txtcodes/ directory on the root of SD card. Any audio file in ogg format renamed to wiicm.ogg should work. Delete this file if wiicm freezes.

Txt Code File Formating

Most code txt files downloaded with Code Downloader or directly from the WiiRD database are properly formated.
