MKWii - Collecting competition data

Who of you recognizes this letter?:


Thats right, it's a competition announcement letter (with the Wiimmfi icon added).

Yesterday, PokemonAcer and I found out how we can get competitions to work.
(Thanks to @Ciapa for the patcher!).


This is currently a proof-of-concept and not ready to be released to the public yet for some reasons:
- The required patching method is not really tested. It might damage the wc24 data on the wii.
- The Wiimmfi server doesn't support it yet - competitions need SAKE to work, so the PoC only lets you download and play the competition, but not up- or download rankings.

But when we want to enable competitions on Wiimmfi in the future, we need the competition files to send out :P

I have already got some competitions, but not all (30 of 46).

So we need your help:

- If you still see any competition in the Mario Kart Channel (doesn't matter which language or which competition) or if the channel says "The competition has ended and the rankings are available", please dump your savegame with the Savegame Manager GX and give me the file "wc24dl.vff" from the extracted folder (by sending me a PM or a mail to wiimmfi [at] leseratte10 [dot] de )
- You can also send me the data.bin file (the complete save game) if you can copy it to SD with Priiloaders "remove copy protection" patch.
- If you have an old NAND backup of your Wii somewhere on your SD card or computer, you can extract it with this tool: Download
Then you can open the path /title/00010004/524d43XX/data/ (XX is your region) and extract the file "wc24dl.vff".

When you send me a PM or mail with the file, please also tell me whether your Wii is PAL or NTSC.

The more competition VFF files from different competitions and languages we can get, the more different competitions and languages for competitions can Wiimmfi support in the future.
