Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

[hbk2004v1]

Yes. vWii Homebrew should work on all Wii U versions currently.

thanks for that

Oh man, all this exploit has to ultimately do is let me play other regions' Wii U games and I'm a happy camper. I don't think I could be bothered to play through Xenoblade X in Japanese.

I too cant wait for region locking. I can read japanese. So for me this is pure awesomeness

For something like Xenoblade X that's so story-heavy, I think I'd prefer to have the text in English. : o

I thought I'd also do some cleanup.
SARCExtract v0.2 is now released! I removed the conversion from string to ints then back to string and switched to bit manipulation. Thanks to thakis for the basis with yaz0dec.
People were also requesting a license so I added one too. tl;dr, do whatever the hell you want I'm here for the cool hacks, not for some licensing wars.
Here's a 32-bit EXE for people having trouble getting it to work.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to sleep as it's 1AM and I have to go and be a productive member of society tomorrow.

what are you using to compile executables from python?

 

[ShonenJump]

Oh, yeah, being able to read Japanese is no problem (I am literally a professional translator). It's just that for something like Xenoblade X that's so story-heavy, I think I'd prefer to have the text in English anyway, if only to give my brain a bit of a breather from spending the day turning Japanese sentences into English ones. : o

Japan gets the game first and i hope someone who has bought the japanese version also can turn in to english via transalation hacks or something like that. Maybe even porting it from the engelish version of the game when it comes out.

Yeah, I'm half-betting on a region unlock being available by the time the English version comes out ^^;

as someone requested, nuspy now supports downloading vwii titles.

awesome. thought about putting this on github?

Don't know that its really worth the trouble considering I'm pretty much done working on it, unless some bug pops up ( very possible). I'm not parsing the TMD directly but parsing a log file. If I decide to use ctypes and build an actual TMD parser for this, than I might consider it.

It's honestly really embarrassing that nintendo haven't patched it yet. Like, that bug's been public for how many months now? The 3DS has a lot of similar unpatched-yet-public bugs. Its newest firmware patched a 3 year old one.

Also you mentioned they checked the kernel. While they could patch it there, wouldn't it make more sense for them to target coreinit?

The bug is only related to something the kernel does, so coreinit patches wouldn't do anything. Even if they were able to patch it through there, we don't use that much of coreinit to make the call. We just use the coreinit syscall stubs.

So, the current team will not work on a browser exploit for 5.1.1-5.3.2 after the kernel exploit is released.

Not sure where you're getting your info from. There is an exploit for 5.3.2 being worked on as we speak. More to come, i'm sure

Don't know if he is doing it the same but I make executables from python files all the time using cx_freeze for python. Or use Py2exe which uses cx_freeze.

 

[leorod199]

I'll upgrade to 5.3.2, there is a way to block future updates in this version? Thanks

I am also curios in this....

Are you sure that blocking addresses in your router / using openDNS/setting up a hotspot won't work? What did they change?

 

[NWPlayer123]

As has been said before, if you're going to talk about blocking updates, do it here, not in this thread.

I PMed you but I'll post it here too. py2exe with a setup script that zips it up into a single executable (google is your friend).

Thanks for this! Do you have plans to release the source for DiscU too?
