v2.5.4-linux.wiicompiled.5

Wheel Wizard for Linux / Steam Deck

Prebuilt manager for this fork. Mario Kart Wii is not included.

Put the app anywhere you like. In Wheel Wizard, set Settings → Location → Mario Kart Wii Game File to your legal dump, wherever it already lives. WiiCompiled needs a clean PAL RMCP01 dump (ISO, WBFS, RVZ, WIA, or GCZ). If a Dolphin GCZ fails, convert that same dump to ISO or RVZ.

Home Install then downloads Retro Rewind and the WiiCompiled AppImage and compiles the native game in-app. Replace the old binary with this one and press Install — you do not need extra packages or terminal commands.

Downloads

• WheelWizard-linux-x64.zip — app, launcher script, and an optional desktop-shortcut helper
• WheelWizard_Linux — single executable, same idea as official Wheel Wizard Linux builds

Run it

1. Unzip (or copy the single binary) wherever you want.
2. chmod +x WheelWizard launch-wheel-wizard.sh
3. Run ./launch-wheel-wizard.sh or ./WheelWizard
4. Point Mario Kart Wii Game File at your dump
5. Press Install
6. Optional: run ./install-desktop-shortcut.sh

The first compile can take a long time. Leave it running.

This build

• On normal Linux (openSUSE, Fedora, Ubuntu, …) Install compiles on the host first. Docker and Distrobox are not required there
• Unpacks linker libraries with bsdtar, or ar + tar if bsdtar is missing
• Clears a leftover CMake cache from a failed Distrobox attempt so Install can continue
• Shows a real disc error if the dump cannot be read
• Distrobox is still used on SteamOS / other read-only systems, and extra /mnt paths are mounted when the container is created
• My Profiles still reads the WiiCompiled Retro Rewind save

This is not the official Flatpak. That build is still Windows-only for WiiCompiled.
