Hacking Official Haxchi v2.5u2 - a persistent WiiU hack

Benjay · Feb 17, 2017

Would there be a kind soul to help me a little bit ?
I'm trying to combine hbl2hbc abd Haxchi in order to boot into Wiiflow directly from the WiiU menu.
It looks like I'm on the right path since I can see the Wii logo, but then I'm brought back to the WiiU menu...
I can't figure what's happening...

Haxchi is configured to boot the hbl2hbc.elf, and the hbl2hbc.elf is configured to launch the DWFA title.

If you see the Wii logo then it's not an issue of Haxchi but of hbl2hbc. Seems like your hbl2hbc config is wrong.
You know that Wiiflow needs to be installed as a (forwarder) channel in vWii, right?

Ahah yes I know this, the forwarder is installed, I am the one who created lots of stuff for Wiiflow back in the days (Carbonik, green, violet, orange and orchid themes, and the matching forwarders by the way ;-) ),
so I have a bit of knowledge how to setup the Wii.
I had narrowed it down to the hbl2hbc config too, but I can't find what is wrong, it is DWFA=WiiFlow, as simple as this...

Would I be able to create a second HaxChi to autoboot to a Nintendont game? If so, how?

Wasn't aware of that.

Well if the channel definitely has the ID DWFA then I dunno unfortunately but it's definitely a HBL2HBC issue.

No problem mate ;-)
Yeah I definitely think it's a problem with hbl2hbc too.
Is there any way I can check the forwarder ID ? I made it a long time ago, it's supposed to be DWFA, but maybe someone has changed it since then, and it has been converted to vWii too, even if I don't think it changes the ID...
Oh well, is there a vWii version of anyTitleDeleter ?

Cool. Got all that. Can I set up Nintendont to autoboot SSB?

Absolutely. Edit the game settings in Nintendont.

how the button mapping works? What do I need to modified so when I hold X it's the Wii homebrew channel that boots up or Y for the Wii u Homebrew Channel? Thank you

Kafluke · Feb 19, 2017

Alright. Here's the issue I'm having. I have setup a 2nd haxchi using a non legit title from Wii U USB Helper. I have put this 2nd HaxChi on my USB to keep it as far away as possible from my CBHC HaxChi. It works just fine when launching but it always autoboots to HBL. I've changed the config file in SD:\HaxChi folder but it doesn't change anything on this 2nd HaxChi. Do I need to re-install HaxChi? I thought that was fixed.

Edit: Answer is yes, I had to move my 2nd HaxChi over from USB over to SD, install HaxChi over the top of it then move it back to USB. It now autoboots HBL2HBC. On to the next step

Haxchi + HBL2HBC + Nintendont Custom Channel

I'm missing a step here. I have 2nd HaxChi autobooting to HBL2HBC elf. Then that just boots to HBC. I have Nintendon't in there and it works fine. I have the custom channel installed and it's working fine. How do I make HBL2HBC autoboot to the custom channel instead of HBC? Or how do I make HBC autolaunch a specific app? Nintendont is set up to autoboot SSB.

Be sure you have the right id for your forwarder and be sure to edit your hbl2hbc.txt with a text editor i tried to edit mine without a text editor and it would always just load the homebrew channel by default.

EDIT: Nevermind.

As stated above yes just put the hbl2hbc.txt on the root of your SD card, and edit it to replace the "LULZ=Homebrew Channel", with the correct TITLE ID of your Nintendont forwarder.

Does anyone know why I'm getting -3 when ever I load Haxchi to the HBL

d12unk13astard · Feb 26, 2017

Is the sdcard removed from wii when you started it up, did you install to internal or external hdd,if external make sure usb is plugged in. Also make sure your on latest release.

I installed it internally and no SD card is in the system and I don't think I've ever updated haxchi

Having no SD card does pretty much explain why you're getting the message that means that it can't see the SD card.

Anything you specify with a path in the haxchi config.txt loads from the given path on the SD card. That means that you can run haxchi sysmenu for patching without an SD, but running the HBL elf needs the SD.

Just download the newest version, overwrite everything on your SD card (except your config.txt if you wanna keep it) and run the Haxchi installer from HBL again.
