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.

Installation

Install wiicm apps package. Make directories /codes/ and /txtcodes/ on root of SD card. Download and install GeckoOS.

Download codes and save them to /txtcodes/. You can use Code Downloader or access the WiiRD database to find the codes you need.

User guide

File selection:

Point and Click with A to select file or directory, or Home to exit.
Renaming txt file helps with selection (ex. rename RMGE01.txt to galaxy.txt). wiicm creates the gct file name from the first line of the txt file to account for this.

Code selection:

Click code name to activate code, red light is on black light is off.
Click MORE or BACK to move through code list. Press Home after finishing code selection.

Finally when you see the caution warning press A to create new gct file and exit, or Home to exit without creating new gct 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 Formatting

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

Explanation

File must end with a hex code or commented line. No blank lines are allowed at the end of the file. The first 4 lines must be; disc code, game name; carriage return, code name.

Wiicm employs blank lines/carriage returns to search for the next code name. Only one carriage return may be used to separate codes, and code name must be only one line. Comments may be placed after codes.
