Complete guide to brazilian exploit method on 5.5.1

Complete guide to brazilian exploit method on 5.5.1


IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER:

Gbatemp community or me IS NOT responsible if you BRICK your console or EVEN if you are banned. We still don't know if Nintendo will ban consoles playing unpaid games online.

You will need a dumped tickets, and there will be no link here for that. The game you want to install has to be available on the eshop too.



Introduction


Purpose:

This tutorial will teach you how to use brazilian exploit and how to update your games to go Online, FROM SCRATCH AND FOR NEWBIES.

Another, more exhaustive and more complicated tutorial exists >> here << made by @BurningDesire, many thanks to him. His tutorial covers steps I), II) and III). The goal here is to have a total noob friendly tutorial that we can use from scratch and that will bring you to a full updated game on your wiiU that you can play Online.

If you have errors, you may want to look that link!



Requirements:

1) A Wii U (on 5.5.1)

2) A SD card (I recommend 32GB if you want to install heavy sized games)

3) A way to load homebrew (connected to the internet or self-hosted ways)

4) A SD card reader on your computer

5) A Windows computer (sorry for Linux/MacOs guys)

6) I highly recommend to have Tubehax setup before beginning this guide (check definitive guide to wiiU hacking for that in "GETTING TO (AND STAYING ON) AN EXPLOITABLE FIRMWARE">>"How do I block updates?">>"Set up TubeHax DNS on your Wii U")

7) A lot of patience



Downloads:

1) Archive with content for your SDcard

2) Archive with content for you windows PC



Where to start:

If you never launched any homebrew launcher on your wii U go to step I).

If you ever have launched homebrew launcher via the Illuminati thing skip step II).

If you already have the homebrew launcher with wupinstaller and wupinstaller y mod ready, go to step III).




I) Prepare your SD card with wupinstaller, wupinstaller y mod and other apps.

1) Format your SDcard:

/!\ You will lose all data on that drive so BE CAREFUL with that.



a) Find guiformat.exe in Brexploit_win_app/fat32format/ in the archive and unpack it wherever you want.

b) Double click "guiformat.exe", and select the letter of your SDcard.

c) The allocation unit size should be 32768, let it like that, then click "Start".
2) Put the "wiiu" folder inside the archive at the root of your sdcard.​


II) Prepare you wiiu to have a 100% working homebrew launcher.

1) Put your SDcard inside you wiiU

2) Go to "loadiine.ovh" with your WiiU internet browser and select "Homebrew Launcher Illuminati" if it hasn't been done before.

3) Wait for those fancy screens.

4) When you have the "Home Menu" coming back, click "Internet Browser".

5) Go back to "loadiine.ovh" and select "Homebrew Launcher 1.2 RC3" and click "Submit" to test if your homebrew launcher is working.

NOTE: You should see "wupinstaller", "wupinstaller y mod" and other apps, if it's not the case go back to step I).



III) Prepare your SDcard to install games on your wii U.

1) Unpack the Windows archive.

2) Get your ticket file.

/!\ Make sure the ticket file is one of your WiiU's region OR YOU WILL BRICK.


3) Drag and drop your ticket file on uTikDownloadHelper.exe that you can find into the "Brexploit_win_app\uTikDownloadHelper\" folder of the unpacked archive.

NOTE: It will ask you for a folder where it will put the full game, name that folder Game_whateveryouwant".


4) Put that folder into SD:\install\

NOTE: You can put multiple games like that by repeating steps from III.2) to III.4).



Bonus) setting up your hard drive (optional).

1) Boot your WiiU.

2) Plug your HDD on WiiU's USB port(s) (may require a Y cable).

/!\ It will ask you if you want to format your HDD, all your data will be lost, so be careful with that, there is no way to partition a WiiU HDD for now.


3) Click "Format".​


IV) Install your games on your wiiU or HDD.

1) Go to "loadiine.ovh" with your WiiU internet browser and select "Homebrew Launcher 1.2 RC3" then click "Submit".

2) Click "wupinstaller y mod" and then "Load".

3) Select which game you want to install with the DPAD then push X to install it on your hard drive or A to install it your console.

4) Wait and be patient, do not turn off your console, go grab a drink.

5) Your game is installed, you still need to update it to go online.​


V) Prepare your SDcard to update your games.

NOTE: I don't know if you can use "wupinstaller y mod" to do that, so I still use the old method where you can only put one update at the same time on your SDcard.



1) Go into the "Brexploit_win_app/NEW-NUSGrabberGUI/" folder.

2) Start NEW-NUSGrabberGUI by double clicking "NEW-NUSGrabberGUI.exe".

3) Go to "Settings" at the bottom left and choose your console's region.

/!\ Remember, if you install something of another region YOU WILL BRICK.


4) Click "Download".

NOTE: You should have a new folder named with a Hexadecimal numbers.


5) Empty your SD:\install folder

6) Put what you have INSIDE the hex folder into your SD:\install folder which has to be empty first.​


VI) Update your game.

1) Put back your SD card in your WiiU.

2) Go to "loadiine.ovh" with your WiiU internet browser and select "Homebrew Launcher 1.2 RC3" then click "Submit".

3) Click "wupinstaller" and then "Load".

4) Push X to install it on your hard drive or A to install it your console.

5) Wait and be patient, do not turn off your console, go grab a drink.

6) Your game is updated.

7) Enjoy.​

NOTE: to update all your games, repeat step V and VI.

Typo. There is no "homebrew channel" for Wii u. It's called homebrew launcher. Wouldn't want to confuse this with the vWii HBC.

To paranoic people (like me), If you have a android smartphone with hotspot you can install that 100% Aio something server and set up your wiiu to the hotspot shuting up your modem and make the process without internet. Tested well here.

We can use wup installer mod to install updates. Just did a bunch of games and their updates at the same time, they all run sweet

Which option is better for games updates:
Download the game updates directly from the eshop for games installed to usb with wup installer? or
Download the update with NUSGrabberGui ?

I'm afraid of mess up the things with the games updates.

@Joshwraith no, do it like in the guide (with wupinstaller y mod if you want). You may not want to ask nintendo's server the update with a not paid game. We still don''t know if eshop's server check if the game is paid. If it does, you may risk ban. I think (it is NOT sure) that if you play online there is no risk to be banned, because those server's role is not to check if the game is paid, but just to make it work. But with eshop's server the risk is way higher.

Just make sure that your update region is right and everything should go fine.

That's why I personaly will never update a unpaid game with eshop's server and this is why I highly recommend to keep Tubahax DNS to never meet those servers with unpaid games on your WiiU.

Ok, thanks for the advice, I'll do it with wup installer then, well in fact I do not play online so I deactivated the network access so no tubehax dns needed but Is true is better stay away from eshop servers.

it's just as easy if you are installing game with wupinstaller to just install update aswell at same time. I have done both methods but had to remove tubehax dns to allow game to update via email shop
