Judging from the replies above ;P,
I'm guessing that there's nothing that can be used to spoof the Eshop to be used on older versions?

what does it change to know when ?
Tomorrow ? you have to wait until tomorrow.
next month ? you have to wait until next month.
whatever the time to release ? you have to wait too

asking will not make it release faster.
Why not just wait patiently, and it will be released one day. The developers don't know "when" it will be released because it's not complete yet.
you can't tell a release date if if doesn't working correctly, and if it works there's no need to wait to release it. (unless there's a reason, but they will tell it)

So I was trying to dump the introduction video
Code:
treyarch.bik
in Black Ops 2 but Cafiine is being strange about displaying the path:

All other paths start with
Code:
/vol/content
but the video I want to dump says
Code:
video/treyarch.bik
and before it says
Code:
german/video/treyarch.bik
so what's the correct file path? Maybe even
Code:
/vol/content/german/video/treyarch.bik
Since dumping requires "imitating" the file system structure, this makes it tedious.

I would guess /vol/content/german/video/treyarch.bik as that seems like the full path rather than a directory. Or you could just imitate all three different paths. Making folders isn't really all that hard to do.

TCP Gecko.NET is not working for Black Ops 2:
https://github.com/wiiudev/pyGecko/issues/2

Yeah, but it should be unambiguous. Also none of the mentioned paths actually worked. ;)

I still can't dump the FSA on TCP Gecko.NET:

The program becomes unresponsive and then disconnects from the game. Nothing is listed. At the time I tried reading the FSA, the game was at the starting screen.

Try in a menu inside the game

Hey guys!

I've been looking into Vpad.rpl because of pure personal interest and VPADSetLcdMode() sounds very interesting to me, I imagine it'd be possible to create a "tweak" that can turn the gamepad's display off and make it possible to use it purely as a controller, for apps like Netflix or games where you don't need the display, button-triggered switching between states even.

Unfortunately I'm not able to test it myself because my console is on 5.4.0, so is there anyone interested out there with an exploitable console? I'd love to hear feedback on this.
I documented the interesting methods as far as I got here: http://wiiubrew.org/wiki/Vpad.rpl

I should be able to throw something together that does exactly that next week, but debugging without being able to run it locally is a pain of course. I'm sure we could manage that somehow, though.

Thanks for documenting this API. It is worth noting that GX2SetDRCEnable() should accomplish the same thing, but that may just go directly to VPADSetLcdMode().

    I would like a Predator game "Kill Team" it takes place in the Jungle of the first movie, your team is sent to hunt the predator, using current tech drones and a trained team. Set traps use strategy to hunt and trap or kill the predator.
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I went today and looked at a motorcycle someone was selling. I get there and the battery on it was dead, so the guy grabbed a battery charger and hooked it up. He plugged it into the wall, and the motorcycle sparked and started smoking. Come to find out the bike uses a 6 volt battery and the guy had the charger set to 12v. I said sorry to the dude and walked away. I felt bad for him tho.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Sounds like it would be an exciting ride....
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Not sure I would want something on fire between my legs
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    He ruined it basically. Sad cause it was a decent old bike. It would take more money to rewire the bike than it was worth tho.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Yeah I'm sure at minimum the starter was fried
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
