I guess you can install the untouched game with brazilan method and then replace the files to mod it. This way you can play the modded game without even running any exploit before launching.

Edit: Seriously,

1. download the game in encrypted form from NUS with e.g. JNUSTool
2. Get th ticket from "that site"
3. Install with wupinstaller. Then you have the original game on your WiiU
4. decrypt the downloaded files on your pc.
5. Run the patcher on them
6. upload the files tht have been patched to your wiiu using ftpiiu_everything.
7. profit

Well, I bought the game, now I need a bigger SD Card to put it on. :/
Can someone recommend me to a capacity that would be future proof for other things? Should I go for 32GB or 64GB?
Edit: And what class should I go for? The highest being 10 or does it matter?

Would you mind going over this in a little greater detail for the more...technologically inept of us out there? If not, then it's cool.

Yes I did it today only with a different set of instructions...watch out though the upload took me upwards of 5 hours. Theres a more in depth guide on "that iso site" but since I can't directly link it i'll copy it here. Just to be clear though I didn't write it I only followed it. The one who posted it there is a guy called Omnifarius


What you need
  • The game installed on your console either legitimately or with wupinstallermod
  • a patched loadiine version of the game
  • At least 4 gb of space on the drive that the game is installed on (usb or console) ( although you will be overwriting the old files you need space to hold the data temporarily )
  • python 2.7 installed (3.5 wont work with this)
  • wupclientmod by Kasai07
  • CFW Booter and homebrew launcher
  • SD Card to put the modded files on (At least a 4gb card 16gb recommended)


Instructions:
  1. Extract the wupclientmod files to the location that python 2.7 is located ( C:\Python27 is the default location )
  2. extract the files gained from the cfw booter link directly to the root of your sd card (no need to overwrite files if you already have them )
  3. Make a new folder on the root of your sd card call it whatever you like. drag these files from the content/pack folder of your patched loadiine version of the game to that folder ( if you have at least a 16gb card then you can drag all of them at the same time otherwise just drag what can fit and after you've copied those file/s replace them with the rest.


  • pack_000_map.cpk
  • pack_010_character.cpk
  • pack_030_etc.cpk
  • pack_031_message.cpk
  • pack_050_movie.cpk
  • pack_999_etc_om.cpk
  • pack_999_lua.cpk

4. insert sd card into console
5. turn on the wii u and go on the internet browser. go to loadiine.ovh/index.php?l=551 in the dropdown menu click on homebrew launcher and press submit (this should already be selected so just click submit). once the homebrew launcher loads click on CFW booter and load it ( this should bring you back to your WiiU home menu when done).
6. open up internet browser again click on settings scroll down and click on "Enable Developer Tools" then ok and enable. you will then get a link with the ip adress of your console (the ip address is the first four numbers not the numbers after the colon). make sure you write down or memorize the ip address.
7.on your pc go to your python27 folder and click on wupclientMod.py. once wupclientmod launches replace the default ip with the one you got in the previous step and click "ENTER IP WIIU CONNECT".
8.Doubleclick on storage_sdcard and navigate to where you put the patched files on the sd card ( the folder you made on step 3 ). right click on one of the files and copy ( you have to do one at a time )
9. Click the ".." at the top until you reach back to the first page. Navigate to /vol/storage_mlc01/usr/title/00050000/101ed800/content/pack if your game is installed on the wii u hardrive or /vol/storage_usb01/usr/title/00050000/101ed800/content/pack if your game is installed on a usb ( if you cant find 101ed800 just single click on any folder inside 00050000 and use the arrow keys to scroll down and for those with the pal version its 101ed700). right click on an empty space and click paste. while copying the files the wup client mod will be unresponsive so dont mess with it ( you can however scroll the cmd ).
10. repeat steps 8 - 9 untill all files are copied ( This whole process will take a little over 4 hours to complete ).
11. Enjoy your patched game

Note: if you want to check the progress of the file you are currently copying on the cmd you will see a hex number constantly going up. that is the amount of bits transferd in hex format. open up your windows calculator in the settings click programmer click on HEX and input the numbers you see on screen after 0x ( since its the size in bytes the numbers are moving really fast so just use whatever number you see first). then look at DEC and that is how many bytes are currently transferred. if you still have the patched files on your computer rightclick on whatever file you're moving and click properties, look at the size in bytes and you can compare how much data has been moved, and get a grasp on how much longer that particular file will take.

Would anyone have any ideas as to why the patch wouldn't work? I have followed all instructions to the letter and after two tries, the game is still censored. The file checker even said that every category was a a pass. Everytime I get to Kiria's first concert at the 106, she's wearing the pants from the censored version. I can't imagine where I could have gone wrong.

Looking back at the pastebin instructions again, I can see that I skipped step 2.5. I skipped the part about omitting "patch_010_character.xdelta" before running the patcher. I don't own a JP version though, I own an American version. I also skipped this step as well "DON'T COPY "pack_010_character.cpk" TO THE GAME FOLDER YET." I assumed that if I had an American release of the game that I would not have to do this as well. Is this where I went wrong?

A few optional costumes removed... doesn't affect the game in any way. This game, however, took censorship to a whole new level.

Well it's the same for TMS, censorship doesn't affect the gameplay either.

Maybe restoring 2 optional costumes shouldn't be a lot of work like the TMS Restoration patch xD I know nothing about mods but if could I would do it by myself hahaha, sadly I'm not a modder.

It affected the story in TMS though.

Is there a way to install this without having to download the entire game again on PC via NUS / dumping the game disc , if I already have the eShop version installed legitimately (and have access to Mocha / HBC / etc of course) ?

So do the subtitles appear on the drawn animated cutscenes? I really want to use this but it's unclear after searching the thread if they do or not. I just don't want to miss the meaning of stuff.
