External script for Wii wallpaper by Lillykyu
As of the release of Wallpaper engine 2.7 this program is no longer needed!
New tutorial
NOTE: make sure your path to where you extract it does not have a space in it! powershell is terrible
- Download the zip file from releases.
- Extract into a folder
- Enable Verbose logging in wallpaper engine
- Edit the info.txt with your executables and log path in the format shown in the file
- Run
install.batand if that succeeds then runstart.bat
If you need to make any edits, run stop.bat, edit your info.txt then run start.bat to restart it
Another note: this does not directly support applications with arguments, if you wish to run an application with arguments, use cmd /c yourcommandhere, eg cmd /c start https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ. You can check here for more examples to put in your info.txt!
Video tutorials here!
Once that is done, you dont need to do anything else, just keep these files and the script will automatically start upon reboots!
If you wish to uninstall the program, run uninstall.bat, delete these files and your done!
In this example the folder "Wii Wallpaper" has a space in the middle, remove it and rerun install!
"The operation was canceled by the user. OR when running start, a powershell window flashes with an error and then closes, with your wallpaper not functioning"
This is caused by the exe being blocked by windows smartscreen.
You will need to go into the dont-touch folder and run the lillywallpaper.exe manually once
You may also see a popup looking like this
Click More info and press Run Anyways.
You may then close the cmd that pops up and run stop.bat
You can then run start.bat and it should run as normal!
If all else fails, try restarting your pc!
Run these commands in order in the main directory:
pnpm i or npm itscpkg .\dist\index.js --targets latest-win-x64 --output ./dont-touch/lillywallpaper.exe
