The footer is an optional, unencrypted timestamp / buildstamp. Each content is individually aligned to a 0x40-byte boundary. The SHA-1 checksum of the decrypted content must match the hash from its corresponding TMD content record.
These are encrypted using the decrypted titlekey from the Ticket and the content index as the IV (first two bytes, followed by 14 zeroes). The encrypted content data section is composed of content files, which are stored following the same order from the TMD content records. Each section is aligned to a 0x40-byte boundary. Sections are stored in installable WAD files in the same order from their headers (certificate chain, ticket, TMD, content data). 'ib' (ImportBoot?) is used for boot2 WADs, 'Is' for everything else.

WAD files are often installed in the Wii System Menu to appear as channels, making launching easier. If you wish to discuss legitimate WAD files, please ensure you make clear which file you are talking about and what you will use it for, to prevent people jumping to conclusions about your intentions. Wiibrew does not in any way endorse piracy, and as such these uses of WAD files should not be discussed.
