I'm having an issue with a single title: Metroid Prime: Trilogy. The get it button is greyed out and right clicking and selecting download does not add it to my download queue. Image below:

EDIT: wew lad, it was already in my download queue. I am dumb, please disregard

I just sign up in this site to congratulate the creators of this tool. I'm new here (and late I think) and want to know what TMD is? Plus, I want to know why COD: BO2 doesn't appear on Wii U USB Helper. I own the disc version. Saludos mis panas.

TMD is Title MetaData. It's the first file you'd grab if you wanted to download the rest of the title.

If you can't get the TMD, then you can't intelligently get the rest. So you if you look at the Title Database, those titles that say No TMD are the ones where the TMD was not found on Nintendo's servers. The most common reason for that is because the title was a retail disc-only release. COD: BO2 is one of those titles.

Since you have the disc, you can extract the disc using Disc2App and install it on your console if you want to.

Thank you very much. I'll check that out.

You can download the update with the app and then install it with the transfer tool or wup installer.

The server is up and running so most likely it's your a/v or firewall which is preventing the app from establishing the connection.

When using the helper,(which is very impressive BTW Hikari!) does anyone use a VPN? any suggestions? as you need to mask downloading through NET Framework 4.0 do you not?!? would it work the same as a VPN that masks Torrents?

Why tho. I downloaded over 500GB full of games and haven't got a single letter from Nintendo.
It's not risky, nothing will happen if you download without VPN.

I dunno, am very hesitant. It's a little different from downloading pirated versions of games rather than direct from their servers?!:unsure:
Even for the games I own! I am astonished it hasn't been blocked yet.....

The BOTW update v64 is not showing for me USA version

You may need to close the app and reopen it. I know with the first BOTW update, it did not automatically show up for me. Once I closed to app completely and opened it again, it updated the download cache listing and the update showed up for me.

Its the same reason people continue to download movies and television shows and software, etc. I mean if you are worried about it than dont do it. Otherwise knock yourself out. You only live once.

Just trying to be smart about it! People might be downloading films and television shows, but they are not downloading straight from Lionsgate or AMC's servers?!?

Well the good news is there are a large number of people using this method. And were all still posting. If you dont want to then go buy the game? Or better yet, rent it, dump it, and then never touch a Nintendo server? Or better yet, put yourself behind a VPN, and have fun. :)

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.

    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying
