Introduction
GeckoLoader is a quick and powerful way to inject gecko codes into your game, by patching them directly into the DOL file.
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, GC and Wii alike
- Codespace extension, allowing 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
History
GeckoLoader started as a fun project trying to figure out how WSZST patches codes in game, and was turned into a full project to enhance the idea for all games
