Why do I have to make some of the files myself? The download only contains the patch: my own changes, and the tools that apply them. The game's own files belong to Nickelodeon and THQ, so the tools build the patched ones from your copy of the game.

What You Need

Your own copy of SpongeBob SquigglePants for the Wii (US, SS8E78) and the uDraw GameTablet.
A Wii with Riivolution installed, or the Dolphin emulator.
Python 3 on your computer, to make the patched files (once).

Unzip the download.Inside are the riivolution folder, the tools, and an empty your-game-files folder.
Copy four files from your game.In Dolphin, right-click the game, choose Properties, then Filesystem. Right-click each of Boot.vol, menus.vol, Microgames.vol and Game305.vol, choose Extract File, and save it into your-game-files. (On a Wii, first back up your disc with CleanRip, then open the backup in Dolphin.)
Make the patched files.Double-click Make SquigglePants+ Files.bat (Windows), or run make-files.sh (Mac or Linux). It checks your files and writes the SquigglePants folder.
Copy two folders to your SD card.Put riivolution and SquigglePants at the root of the SD card. For Dolphin, put them in Dolphin's Load/Riivolution folder instead.
Play!Start Riivolution, pick the game and turn the options on. In Dolphin, right-click the game and choose Start with Riivolution Patches.

The Options

Option	Default	What it does
100% Completion Fix	On	100 rounds in a Nanogame Replay game count for the save screen's last point (it needed 101), so the save can show 100%.
Ending Credits Slowdown Fix	On	The credits after PixelBob run at full speed.
Title and Credit Fixes	On	Corrected titles and text, the restored credits, the italic title, and "D-PAD!" on the IconBob controls screen.
SpongeBob SquigglePants+ Logo	On	The high-quality SpongeBob SquigglePants+ logo on the US title screen, and a "+" on every other language's logo.
IconBob in Replay	On	The seven IconBob games as the eighth Replay section, before Remix.
Credits and Puzzle de Pants in Options	On	The Credits button, and the Puzzle de Pants frame once you have watched them.
Dev Menu	Off	Starts the game in the developers' menu.

Will it mess up my save?

No. Everything the patch saves (IconBob's records and the Puzzle de Pants unlock) goes in spare space in your normal save, and the save still works without the patch.

Does it work with the European or Australian version?

Not yet: it's made for the US version (SS8E78). The title logo has its "+" in every language, though.

Do I need the uDraw GameTablet?

Yes, as for the original game. The IconBob games are steered with the D-Pad on the Wii Remote.

Does "Puzzle de Pants" save my score?

No, it's just for fun: nothing it does is saved.

What do I need for 100%?

Gold in every Collection and every Nanogame Replay game, "RetroBob", "Seasons of Sandy" and "Rattle and Roll" at 100, "Showboating Shower" at 50, 75 rounds in Remix, and 100 rounds in any one Nanogame Replay game. See 100% for Real.

The tool says a file isn't the right one.

It checks each file against the US version's. Make sure you copied the files from SS8E78, and that they aren't already patched.
