Overview
GeckoLoader is a program created by JoshuaMK. It is a quick and powerful way to inject Gecko codes into your game by patching them directly into a DOL file. The author initially made this as a fun project to figure out how Wiimms SZS Tools patches codes in-game. It was turned into a full project to enhance the idea for all games.
There are lots of options to customize the patch job, but it is best to use option -h to further learn how these options work.
Main Features
- Works with all games, GameCube and Wii alike.
- Codespace extension, which allows, on average, about 0x50000 bytes of space per game.^
- Direct patching of RAM write type Gecko codes into the DOL itself, overwriting original values and removing the codes from the codelist.
- Protection against user codes, by nullifying the codelist provided by loaders and programs such as Riivolution or Dolphin.^
- Codelist encryption, to prevent people from snooping on your mod.^
^ Only when using the ARENA setting.
