File can’t be have an extension (.bin)
Should be extensionless.
February 22, 2015 at 4:05 am #439057It worked! I will see if it works in game tomorrow; it’s late here and everyone else is asleep in my house.
EDIT: I get “Add-on content cannot be restored to the Wii System Memory” error…again.

If youre following the steps described on this topic and still arent able to generate .bin, its probably related to the ng_id or common-key files being incorrect. Probably the common-key one.
Try using this one: ebe42a225e8593e448d9c5457381aaf7
Just open the common-key file with notepad, insert this key and save it. Should work
The ng_id is a bit harder to find. I opened a DLC that I had already downloaded on my wii with an HEX editor in order to get it. There are multiple methods to find it, though
February 24, 2015 at 4:48 pm #439209Also when it comes to ng_id, you can now drop on your BIN DLC into C3CONTools to get them.
I take it you’re also using sZFE for this DLC?
February 24, 2015 at 10:48 pm #439241I generate a .bin, but generating a working bin is my problem. This weekend, I’ll see what I can do with that.
I pasted that into the common-key and my ng_id came from the keys.bin that came from softmodding the device.
Also, I am use sZFE for the customs
EDIT: I used HxD to open a DLC…didn’t find anything readily decipherable that could be the number. I also couldn’t figure out what tool to use in C3CON tools, but I’m gonna keep playing with it tonight.
EDIT2: I gave up looking for the tool or in HxD with other .bin files.
March 5, 2015 at 4:33 pm #439817This may be in the wrong forum and if so I apologize. I just recently acquired the Beatles Rock Band game. Never really liked them but was curious what the DLC for it was. Anyhow since Wii took down the game servers, I can’t go into store to download songs as I cant create a name for online play. Would it be possible for someone to let me use their save from TBRB just so I can access the store and download? I really want to DL and backup all the DLC for all the RB and GH games before it totally becomes unavailable. I am sure that’s only a matter of time. Guess I’ll be switching to Xbox or PS3.
March 5, 2015 at 8:12 pm #439882You can, but you don’t have to. I have all the DLC backed up for such an event. I think redownloads are still allowed, right?
March 5, 2015 at 10:33 pm #439912Hi stack, thanks for the great work on getting customs to the wii!
Using your guide I have been able to successfully play customs on RB3 on my wii. However I’m trying to get it to work on Dolphin, and so far I have had no luck
I’ve tried both installing the custom in Dolphin’s NAND and on the virtual SD card, but neither one is recognized by the game or the wii menu. Here’s what I have done (with no success):
- Downloaded the “Strawberry Fields Forever” custom, wii format
- Edited songs.dta to reflect /sZFE/001
- Renamed folders to 001_00000001_Strawberry_meta and 001_00000002_Strawberry_song
- Changed packdlc.bat to show:
@echo off
u8it 001_00000001_Strawberry_meta 00000001.app -pack
u8it 002_00000002_Strawberry_song 00000002.app -pack
- Ran packdlc.bat
- Copied 00000001.app, 00000002.app, 00000026.app, title.tmd to /title/00010005/735a4645/
- Copied title.tik to /ticket/00010005/735a4645.tik
- Copied SYSCONF to /shared2/sys/SYSCONF
- Loaded Rock Band 3 in Dolphin, and no indication of the DLC is there. No “loading DLC” bar, nothing
Any help as to what I’m doing wrong would be very much appreciated ” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif” /> .
I have also tried copying my real Wii NAND (minus SYSCONF) to the Dolphin NAND, and my profile loaded but the (real) DLC I had downloaded did not show up at all.
March 5, 2015 at 11:56 pm #439918That also reminds me I had to update the Dolphin tutorial a bit after guiding someone else through it.
What version of Dolphin is it?
Can you go to View > Show Log and also Show Log Configuration. Make sure Verbosity is set to Warning. Then, run the game and show me what kind of messages appear when you get to the main menu.
March 6, 2015 at 12:24 am #439921Here’s a pastebin of the logs from boot through selecting “quickplay”:
One thing I notice is that it never even tries to open any file at title 0010005735a4645 for whatever reason.
I’m running the latest Dolphin, 4.0r5752, and this is on a clean NAND except for the steps I mentioned in my last post.
March 6, 2015 at 3:14 am #439939Yeah, that is odd. Can you try build 4243 to see if that acts differently? Actually, it might even want shop access confirmed at some point, so if the other build still doesn’t work, try this save file. https://db.tt/ghdnp7CR
March 6, 2015 at 6:17 am #439956Interesting results using r4243, though the song still does not appear:
In this Dolphin revision the game tries to load all the title.tmd files in the folders /title/00010005/735aXX50/content/
(interestingly, 735aXX50 maps to sZxP in ascii, not sZxE as I expected for content generation sZFE)
However /title/00010005/735a4645, the folder in which the custom is, is not mentioned in the log.
I tried using your save file on both r4243 and the latest Dolphin, and the custom did not show up for either
I also tried deleting the cache MSTORE.vff from title 0010000535a4245data but this had no effect.
March 6, 2015 at 3:36 pm #439996Okay, now that it is trying to load the PAL version DLC, you are using the NTSC version of the game, right? At this point, you should try to change out the SYSCONF file to see if it stops thinking you’re in Switzerland.
March 6, 2015 at 4:19 pm #440008Hm. I am using the NTSC version of the game, title ID SZBE69…
Ok, I just replaced the SYSCONF file (I must have forgotten to do that for r4243 dolphin) and now it is trying to load from the 735aXX45 directories, but Dolphin hangs/crashes right after it attempts to open /title/00010005/735a4545/content/title.tmd (presumably because 735a4645 is next).
The title 0010005735a4645content folder contains 00000001.app, 00000002.app, 00000026.app, and title.tmd within it. And ticket 0010005 contains 735a4645.tik. Do you think there may be something wrong with any of these files?
March 7, 2015 at 12:56 am #440075It crashing on the content generation you’re using seems to suggest something could be wrong with the ticket or TMD.
How about you switch it all to sZAE that I know is confirmed working. It just seems to have less problems overall.
