Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

You mean IOSU?

Because we already have a kernel exploit for 5.3.2. (Correct me if I'm wrong.)

This is what I'm talking about, it's a little confusing understanding where everything is right now.

Well, from what I know(read here ) that USB loading is hardly possible using the kernel exploit, but it's waaaaaay easier using the IOSU exploit.

@Marionumber1 @NWPlayer123
Have you tested golden45 modification yourself?(It doesn't work...)

Yes, I've used it several times. Screen'll go black, it'll print some text about the number of running threads (50 for me), press A to make a new thread and it'll connect to RPC and you can start poking. Make sure to update socket.h and you should be good.

Well, I tried again but my IP maybe is wrong in socket.h, My IP is 192.168.0.105 in my computer, I've edited socket.h like this:
/* IP address of the RPC client (in this case, 192.168.1.9) */
#define PC_IP ( (192<<24) | (168<<16) | (0<<8) | (105<<0) )
Is it fine?, also I tried what you said when the black screen appears, I had pressed A button but it doesn't show any kind of text...

Hide your ip mate

Hide your ip mate

it's local network, not to worry

Hmm, shrug. If the python script is running it'll tell you it was connected by <IP> like usual after you press A, and it'll print some text IDR exactly what it says and the thread count'll go up to 51.

Question : I remember MN1 said that with userland we already have access to Wii U's graphics and audio. how far are we from reading movies from USB (at least simple formats for now like avi/mp4 and then we can talk about mkv etc...) ?

 

[BananaMuffinFrenzy]

Sorry to bring this up again, but just to be absolutely 100% crystal-clear with no room for doubt:

- If a user is on 5.3.2, there are no longer any known benefits to remaining on this firmware, and they can safely update to 5.4.0
- The same level of control achieved on 5.3.2 can now (or at least eventually) be achieved on 5.4.0 in its entirety

I've been itching to try the new Smash DLC, so if progress with 5.4.0 has for sure become just as consistent with 5.3.2, I'll go ahead and update.

Seems legit. Especially since there are videos/screenshots of existing hacks being present on 5.4.0.

Anyways, @NWPlayer123 or @Marionumber1 could you please confirm this FW to be as save as 5.3.2?
I'd love to get some more stuff from the eshop, especially an N64 game..

 

[MrRean]

5.4.0 is safe to update to, but you're gonna have to wait a bit longer to test hacks.

 

[oumoumad]

So the kernel exploit is confirmed working on 5.4.0? Until it is, not updating.

As far as I know it is, if you look couple pages ago, it seems that NWP was hacking splatoon on 5.4.0 using the kernal exploit.

I don't see how hard it is to turn off the Wii U until that one day lol.. Mines been off for about a year now.. Still on 5.0

Because some of us actually play wiiu games -- Yes, it's possible, surprising, isn't it?

 

[EpicLPer]

For a whole week this thread is nearly dead and all of the sudden it's alive again, heh ;P

I know it's a little offtopic (sorry for that) but is there any way to enable constant forum mails when there's a new reply here? Haven't found an option yet besides only being notified once I visited it when there's a new one which is annoying.

Nope, still doesn't work :/ , however I have noticed something at the compiling time, of course I have fixed the PowerPC-eabi-gcc problem, I can compile fine now, but I noticed that it give me a error when compiling using golden45's loader, here are 3 screenshots, Normal loader is using the normal loader that comes with wiiulib, and the Golden45 compiling is using his loader, the CMD gives me an error when I use the loader of him.
I'm doing something wrong?.

EDIT: Sorry, I think I get confused and I've uploaded the wrong pictures, I will upload the correct ones now, sorry about that :/

EDIT2: OK, after that stupid mistake, here are the correct ones, using Normal Compiler and the Golden45 one, the Golden45's loader give me Error 1.

Lol very

I would be lying if I said I didn't miss it.. Trust me I want to play splatoon sooooo bad!!!!

Looks like a relative directory path to fsa.h is not being found. Find where it is in your and provide the directory path in the include statement.

Here's the right loader.h

 

[MrRean]

To confirm: the kexploit for 5.4.0 is working, and that's what NWP used to test the hacks. You are right.

still gotta wait though, it's horribly unstable.
