Wii Disc Dumper - No LG Drive Required

Version 0.1.1
whatsnew:
0.1.1:
- SD Testing (please report your speed back on the forums and your card brand/size)
- Various bugfixes

As for people who requested for source, the source will be out once libogc has updated the lib for SD cards (as right now there's too many fixes that would break other things).

Please post back your Speed and approx time that it says it will take for a complete dump.
In this format:
- GAME TYPE
- Approx Time (Speed)
- SD Card Brand
- SD Card Size

Here is an example:
- GC Game
- 92min (262kb/s)
- Sandisk Ultra II
- 1GB

OLD NEWS - BETA RELEASE
Notes:
- Uses experimental libogc fixes on libsdcard
- Rips a Wii game in just under an hour.. 5hrs on shitty(most) SD cards
- Compatable on a GC console or a Wii console
- No modchip needed, just boot it somehow
- Read Error detection and retry mechanism implemented
- Dont cry if your SD card is formatted accidently!
- If you switch off the console or take out the SD card etc then there will be a non-deletable file on your SD card and you will need to format it again.

Doesn't this method already exist? I believe that the 001 Red Steel release was dumped in this manner.

What is the SD Gecko for?? Im new to GC / Wii stuff but from the looks of a few pics it seems to go into the memory card slot of a GC and a SD Card goes into it...

Datel's SD launcher will work with this!!!
It's based on the Gekko design and unlike Action Replay works fine without needing to convert dols.

If you don't allready have what you need to run SDload the cheapest way at the moment is to buy a cyclowiz and make a bootable disc with linux. This will only cost you 40$ and you can actually play the backups you make.
