Introduction

Wiimms ISO Tools is a set of four tools to manipulate ISO files and WBFS partitions. The tools are named:

  • wit : Wiimms ISO Tool (an ISO manipulating tool)
  • wwt : Wiimms WBFS Tool (an advanced WBFS Manager)
  • wfuse : A FUSE tool to mount ISO images and WBFS partitions (Windows not supported).
  • wdf : Pack, unpack and test WDF and CISO files.

The tools can handle the file formats .iso, .ciso, .wbi, .wdf, .wia, .wbfs and extracted files systems (FST). All tools are command line tools and run without any interaction. The main goal is to run them in batch files and scripts to automate recurring jobs. Wiimms ISO Patcher is an example for an automatic conversion.

The toolset is available for Linux, Mac and Windows.

Extracting files

The wit tools are able to extract all or some files of any of a Wii ISO image. Use wwt (Wiimms WBFS Tool) to extract files from a disc inside a WBFS partition. Use wit (Wiimms ISO Tool) to extract files from any ISO image (file format .iso, .ciso, .wdf, .wia or .wbfs). Linux and Mac users can also use wfuse (Wiimms FUSE Tool) to mount an ISO image or a complete WBFS partition and to use any file browser to extract files.

wit example

Try the command:

wit extract mkw.iso --files=+/files/Race/Course --dest=tracks/ --flat

mkw.iso is the file name of your ISO image, all others must be entered literally. This command will extract all files of the ISO internal directory /files/Race/Course into the local sub directory tracks/. Most of this extracted files are Nintendos track files.

If you want to extract the whole DVD, just use:

wit extract mkw.iso --dest=mkw/

All files of all partitions (DATA, UPDATE and CHANNEL) including system files like main.dol are extracted into local sub directory mkw/. If you add the option --psel=data only the DATA partition is extracted.

Visit http://wit.wiimm.de/wit/extract for more details about the command "wit extract".

wfuse example

Try the command:

wfuse -c mkw.iso mkw-dir

mkw.iso is the file name of your ISO image and mkw-dir a temporary directory created by wfuse. If the mount is successful you can enter the directory mkw-dir with your favorite file browser. The tracks are resides in ./mkw-dir/iso/part/data/files/Race/Course/. You can also mount a complete WBFS partition.

For unmounting use

wfuse -u mkw-dir

wfuse is not available for Windows because there is no Windows support for FUSE.
