Requirements

  • An SD Card or USB drive with at least 4.7GB of space (8.5GB if dumping a Dual Layer disk)
  • CleanRip

Instructions

Downloading

  1. Extract CleanRip and put it in your apps folder on your SD card or USB drive
    • The root of your SD Card should now look like this
      • SD card icon (root)
        • Folder icon apps
          • Folder icon CleanRip
            • File icon boot.dol
            • File icon icon.png
            • File icon meta.xml
  2. Insert your SD card or USB drive into your Wii and launch CleanRip from the Homebrew Channel.

Usage

  1. When prompted, select Yes to calculate disc checksums.
    2. CleanRip-Checksum.png
  2. Select your device that you will be dumping the game to - a USB device or SD card.
    3. CleanRip-Device.png
  3. Select the filesystem type of the device - in most cases it will be FAT (FAT32).
    4. CleanRip-Filesystem.png
  4. Ensure that your device is connected to the system and press A to proceed.
    5. CleanRip-Insertdevice.png
  5. When prompted, select Yes to download the redump.org DAT files.
    • This is required to ensure that the resulting dumps are clean and accurate.

  6. Insert the game disc you would like to dump, and press A to continue.
    7. CleanRip-Insertdisc.png

OOjs UI icon information-progressive.svg As of v2.1.2 of CleanRip, there is an option to auto-detect whether or not the disc you have is dual layer.

  1. When prompted, select if your disc is an unlicensed Datel disc. If unsure, select No.
    2. CleanRip-Dateldisc.png
  2. Set the settings as shown on the screen below, while verifying if your game disc is dual layer or not.
    3. CleanRip-Wiisettings.png
  3. Press A to start dumping the disc.
    • This process can take some time, since it will dump all 1.3 GB of the Mini DVD.

Joining PART files

OOjs UI icon information-progressive.svg If you have dumped a Wii game disc (regardless if it was to a PC or Wii) to a FAT32 formatted device, you should have gotten at least two files that end with .partX.iso. This section will show you how to join them.


  1. Copy the files that share the same name and end with .partX.iso into an empty folder on your computer.
    2. PART-merge-dumpedpartfiles.png
  2. In this folder, click the address bar in Windows Explorer and type in cmd, this will open a command prompt window there.
    3. PART-merge-opencmd.png
  3. Type copy /b *.part?.iso game.iso and press enter. Wait for the command to finish, your terminal output should be similar to the below.
    4. PART-merge-joinpartfiles.png
  4. If the copy process executed correctly, the checksum from the game dump info file (located where you dumped your disc at) should match the resulting joined file.
    5. PART-merge-filemd5.png

  • Copy the files that share the same name and end with .partX.iso into an empty folder on your computer.
    • PART-merge-dumpedpartfileslinux.png
  • Open a terminal in the directory where your files are at, or cd [PATH] to it.
    • PART-merge-openterminallinux.png
  • Use the following command as is: cat `ls *.part?.iso | sort` > game.iso. Then, wait for the merging process to finish. Like in Windows, the resulting checksum should match the dump.
