Update on new site and installer

admin — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 01:08:30 +0000

For your info: The new site is coming along great for the improved installer!!

So much cleaner and less techy than this development blog

Today we can finally do some work on the new version, the functional design was done in the last weekend.

More info and screenshots soon!

Finally an update!

It has been a month since this Blog was updated:

So…What is going on with the new installer? We finally have a release date for the new site + installer, Hopefully by the end of this month!!! Due to a lot of other private projects all running at the same time priorities were unfortunately not with the new installer. But we will finish the app and make a new video of it!…

There has recently been a domain registered for upcoming new site, special dedicated to the new Installer.
Builing a new site and the installer and running just so many projects at the same time was is a bit too much when also going to college.. Hopefully you can wait a bit longer and will be happy with some screenshots coming soon in the upcoming weeks..

How far are developments of the new Installer?

admin — Tue, 27 Jan 2009 09:44:35 +0000

There is now a proof of concept but the installer is not totally finished yet,
Problem is that we do not want to include copyrighted material from the original homebrew creators and Twilight hack (the hack needed for running homebrew) in the new release. So we have to find a solution for that.

We noticed that our first Wii Homebrew Installer which was released on 4 september still gives people some problems. The new installer will make it ultra noob friendly to install the homebrew channel and run Homebrew games!!! It handles all steps from selecting your current version to making the hack ready for SD card and ready to install on the Wii.

Since this is more of a development blog, a NEW site special dedicated to the new Installer will be launched!

Plans are to have the installer and new site ready in February,

For those we purchased PDF’s and thought you were buying a program, ask for a refund!

Good news for you today!

The development of the new installer has started! I will go into detail later about how it will work and how it will give less chance for scamm sites to sell. The release date will be set to this month. It will be so much better than the original which has been released 4 months! ago!

We’ve discussed how to handle with scamm sites, exploiting the homebrew scene and the developers. Now that more bogus sites pops up, luckely new measures are being taken so that we will get more people to run homebrew without losing them first to scammers.

If you have bought anything ask for a REFUND!

SCAMMERS Follow-up

admin — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 20:05:03 +0000

We are now aware that there are at least 50 scamm sites hosting either copyrighted material, redistributing the Twilight Hack or Homebrewchannel or other software for running homebrew on the wii.

We will warn people about this in a new video soon. Recommending not to buy anything at such bogus site, since you will only get a crappy manual in a wrong way for not respecting the original authors/developers.

- Meanwhile we continue looking into the development of the New and official Easy Installer targeted to directly affect scammers their businesses and respect the work of the hard working developers in the scene.

We will update the blog later with more info on how we exactly will stand up against these sites.

SCAMMERS ON THE NET

admin — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 19:19:31 +0000

Important!!!!

We would like to notice you about the following: Several sites are making profit of the free homebrew channel on the web. Some sites have started to sell Wii homebrew packages / guides.

We recommend NOT to buy this CRAP. What they sell is NOT high-quality software or guides, they are selling FREE!! poor guides.

WE are the ONLY ORIGINAL Creators of the ‘Free and simple’ to use Easy Installer.

A totally new version is being developed to install Homebrew Channel V10 the legal way + a direct strategy to WARN people about fraudulent sites from outside of the Homebrew scene. We will take measures hoping it will affect their business.

If you have comments, please let us know.

—————-Read-Below—————————-
The Homebreware site claims to provide software to - surprise - do everything that Wii homebrew applications currently do. I encourage you to read the site for yourself. I actually went ahead and bought it to have proof of what’s going on. What’s in the box? There is none. Their product is entirely delivered online, and includes two parts: a PDF guide and a software bundle. They also have an affiliate program which seems to be pretty active.
