according to this video and a lot of other videos and a lot of google search results, nintendo bans everyone that has HBC!
the only way to hack without being banned is using the geckoos channel, but what about save file extractor and loader?
is this the end of accf hacking??
:(:confused::(:confused:
i know what to do, i have been researching it since i woke up.
but if we had to remove HBC then we cant use actoolkit anymore
By the way they only ban you on games like SSBB I think because then you can actually cheat against worldwide people. They might not ban you on AC:CF because you can get permission from your friends. Also it's only if you have codes turned on, so you can probably use the AC toolkit still.Quote:

They don't care if u hack or not...they are checking your wii for the HAXX code...which can only be done if u are on wi-fi or if you have wii connect 24 onQuote:

From looking at the various discussions, there is tons of speculation, inconsistencies and very little proof.
Has anyone got error "20102" when playing AC:CF only?
there may be little proof but it is happening...they are scanning the wii for the HAXX code...so it doesn't matter if ur just playing animal crossing....they only care if u have the channel....so i was informed :( just hope your right DsPetQuote:

That's one of those inconsistencies. Wait a few days and the truth may appear (in the mean time people will go crazy with speculation)
FWIW/FYI: Here's one article you may have seen - concise (and some of the comments are interesting). Don't know if it is accurate or not. The latest theory is they only ban true cheaters...

I doubt they are scanning for the HBC. I also doubt that they can even do that with the current system updates. People who have been banned (if that error does, in fact, mean you are banned) are, most likely, cheating online in competitive games, such as Mario Kart.
Oh, and BootMii can't stop you from getting banned.
In all honesty going to be lame if i really do have to buy a capture card to actually record matches longer than 3 minutes on brawl, thats really the only code i use or need since i have a USB gecko, but would still be pretty lame. Unless there is another way to record matches that I am not aware of, i haven't really looked into it.
Well, im still rather unsure if i should be online or not...i mean Virus, you and DsPet are really smart...but i mean...there isn't enough proof to support your idea's nor is their proof to support anyone elses for that matter...so i was wondering if i should go online or not? >.<
i'll stay offline for a few days to see what will happen

GameSpinVideo "I really doubt Nintendo would go against any AC hackers, since AC isn't public.
And the Backup Loader is a channel which can load your cheats without having to go through the Homebrew Channel."
the title says it allQuote:

I would agree with DSPet and Virus. It is all speculation. Nintendo's description of the error code implies that a cheat code was detected while online. It would take a long time for Nintendo to try to "scan" every Wii for the HAXX ticket. The thing is Homebrew isn't even the program used to "cheat". There are many other ways to use codes other than apps through the Homebrew Channel. It doesn't make sense that they are trying to target Homebrew for this reason.
Well, i have tested out online and i wasn't banned. :) as long as you don't do things like cheating to win or get higher ranks....like people on mario kart wii.
Just sheer speculation on my part, but I will say (from past experience with Nintendo) that they will only ban from cheating on competitive games. Rooting leaderboards was a big problem back in the DS days. They took some small actions against that. Never once did they take action against Wild World hacking (one could speculate that is due to a lack of resources to take action against such hacking). Whether they have these advanced scanning capabilities when they can hardly keep a steady online session going on their own servers is a question everybody should step back and ask themselves. Speculation will drive people mad. Just wait for a definitive answer.
Scanning your Wii seems a little invasive, and I don't even really think the system is capable of doing that. I'm sure they can determine whether a code is active or not, because they can check the save file before allowing you online by requesting data from your Wii. But I doubt they can scan and find the HBC on your Wii. It just seems highly unlikely.
The only time I've ever used cheats on WiFi are through AC:CF. And I don't even play it much anymore, so I guess it doesn't really matter. I'll just stop using cheats, since I don't use them much anyways. The most I use is the ACToolKit.
If you just dont use hacks or even use the HBC will you be ok?
because i want to go on wi-fi and i dont want to get banned
You'll be fine.. As said before I highly doubt they will bann people from AC:CF as they didn't with ac:ww and its more for the leader board type things.Quote:

It seems highly unlikely that they can remotely scan the Wii's flash memory for the HAXX ticket.
It is more likely that they are going off of customer complaints, or cruising public races for obvious cheaters, or using some other similar low-tech method.
After all, this is Nintendo we're talking about. Their online service is bottom-of-the-barrel. I'm amazed that they can even ban anyone to begin with.
Actually, they ban everyone by having server issues all the time.
Lol. Very well put. It seems to be their preferred means of discipline to employ.Quote:

IDark
After you updated ..do you know if you can load a saved game from actoolkit on the sd card??
thanks
Yes, i've placed a Test flower with the toolkit, and after installing the Savegame it was there.
I have a Question too: Can you boot the Homebrew Channel from the SD Card? This would be great, because then, i can remove the SD Card, if don't need homebrew to avoid getting banned.
ive had no problems yet
ive edited my town like crazy with actoolkit+NPC_tool and ive loaded it with geckoOS with cheats turned on and have played online with other people
:)
Yes, you can. It booted up like a charm. However, I don't know if it will still work if you delete it of your Wii or not. It doesn't do that for other channels, but we're talking about the Homebrew Channel here.Quote:
