Hi all, recently I unfortunately experienced a data wipe on my PC's hard drive. On it, I had a folder with my Wii U' SD card's contents inside. I am asking if anyone is willing to share files such as the haxchi boot file, and every other required file. I appreciate the help, as this would be huge since I lost everything. Thank you.

thanks for this. this helped with a few things. what i sort of meant above is that i need the files that are legitimately required to use a homebrewed wii u, like things that wont boot unless you have the files.

What may I ask did you use to Homebrew your Wii U? Because most modding processes wont prevent boot in case of missing files. Tiramisu for example just boots straight to Wii U menu in case of missing files / no SD card.

Edit: unless you're talking about booting into Homebrew itself :P in that case you can just download necessary files from the link I gave above ;)

I used Haxchi and a copy of New Super Mario Bros. to homebrew my Wii U. I'm pretty sure I followed the Wii U Hacks Guide page. Tiramisu sounds pretty safe, but I guess I'm stuck with Haxchi.

CBHC or regular Haxchi? Because regular Haxchi only installs a run-time CFW and Homebrew Launcher over a DS VC Title, doesn't affect boot at all! ;) CBHC is Cold Boot Haxchi which yes can impact boot but that's only if you set it up to behave that way, as users of CBHC have stated before boot without SD Card is possible :P

On the contrary! Both regular Haxchi and CBHC have approved uninstallation methods :toot:

Ah, I did not know they have uninstallation methods, that's great! And I have regular Haxchi.

It's all at the official guide:
https://wiiu.hacks.guide/#/tiramisu/sd-preparation
If you have an existing legacy CFW setup
For CBHC users: go to the Uninstall CBHC page to uninstall CBHC.
For Haxchi users: uninstall the Haxchi app from Data Management in the System Settings app.
For Mocha CFW (Indexiine) users: go to the Uninstall Indexiine page to uninstall Indexiine.
For Mocha CFW (Online Exploit) users: you do not need to do anything before following this guide.

    I wonder if that was the point of game streaming
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    But it's a dead end
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, people who cant download it can still play the game
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    @BigOnYa, i only have like 1 or 2 mb sec

    Did you feed the hamster in your internet router? It prob died and is running slow now.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, why did you start saying my pc has a hamster in the first place?

    Its actua!ly just a old joke, meaning its slow. Was just kidding around with you.

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage

    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not to mention this would be a massive pain to pirate
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, ik

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
