Early this morning (I am in the UK) I got an email from BiffTDB who has completely pulled apart all of the mii data, and documented the format to what looks like it's entirety! Many thanks to Him (or her, I've been wrong before exor)

I'm going to have a look at the new struct later today..

typedef unsigned short u16;
typedef unsigned int u32;

Thanks to dirgotronix, we now have all the data required to view each kind of glasses and eyes within the Mii files. Although the image is rough, you can clearly see that we are very close to the real thing now. If these Mii's had hair, you'd think you were looking at your TV ;)

Dear all,

Over the past 4 weeks I have been creating a small application with the help of some people on the irc channel #wiidev that will display and edit mii binary files without the need of a wii.

The main goal of this, is to have a run-anywhere application whereby a user can upload a binary file from their wiimote, and in return, be given an editable viewable abusable mii picture that can be used on anything from forum signatures, to high res versions that can go onto tshirts, baseball caps..

Currently we are in alpha stage. Most of the mii binary is now fully understood, and the mii data is being broken down into sections. We know what eyes, eyebrows, noses and faces fit where.

If you wish to help, either with creating miis to help document the format, or by creating high res graphics that can be used with the viewer then please contact me. I am especially interested in people who can create high quality 3D models as I plan to create a 3D version once the 2D version is complete.
