Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

Hopefully there'll be a dedicated 3D model viewer with import/expert options. (Please in Java)

Everything is C or C#.

Why? Because you learned the language or because it'll be platform independent or easy to decompile?

Nobody cares about which language it is written in... only which platforms it runs

actually, there are way more java programmers because it is easier to learn i heard.
So i don't find it that strange people DO want to know about the language.

I like java better because it has a healthy number of library support, it's platform independient, and doesn't carry all the shody .net stuff

Java usage is on the decline, while c# is steadily rising. They're both pretty easy to learn, Java has more users because it runs on more platforms.

Happy Birthday Mods!
I made this thread to discuss programming languages.

If I had to guess, that weird function is printing something (a parameter you passed) to a log. It looks like it'd be in the format "<something at 0x02706BF8>: <parameter>\n". And I think sub_26B31DC is what's printing those individual components.

What is the asc_103B104A@h? It affects one of the register inputs for sub_26B31DC. If it's a label, where is it defined? (Sorry if my PPC assembly is a little rusty.)

This is why I like Java as well. You can also bundle the JRE with JWrapper, so end-users don't have to install Java

Does anybody know how Hykem is getting on with the webkit exploit?

 

[EpicLPer]

Guys, the whole Wii U hacking seems amazingly far already, I really can't wait to get my hands onto an exploit myself once it's out

PS.: Side-Question here (not related to this thread). Is anyone here actually familiar with converting Wii (U) models (and possibly the skeleton too) to the Valve Source Engine? Just because I read something about an Extractor here ;P

 

[starerik]

There are rumors of a new Nintendo Direct and as no Wii U games were included in this week's Nintendo Downloads update (at least not in Europe) that could well be true. Anyways, new system update as well perhaps?

enduser wise, its been exactly the same as its ever been. Nothing

Hey guys
Sorry for the delay with the exploit, I've been overwhelmed with my new job during this week
I'll have a 3 day weekend next week as well, I'm confident the exploit should get done by then

That's all over at vg-resource with RTB making scripts for everything to import into Maya or w/e

Possibly, I'd love for everything in that rumor, but some of it seems sketchy. For example, how they mentioned Smash amiibo for Pokemon Rumble World but not the actual NFC figures made for Rumble U (cross compatible). Web eShop I could see coming with a new system version, yeah. Amiibo gallery is a little sketch too.

THE FUCKING HYPE IS REAL!!! JUST ONE MORE WEEK!!!

 

[Marionumber1]

I've started the process of documenting what we know on WiiUBrew. So far all I have is the stub Cafe OS page, but it should be populated with a lot more stuff soon. This includes API documentation, which will be useful for writing homebrew, and general system architecture.

 

[JorgeSalgado]

What is Hykem exactly working on? If you can't disclose any information I will understand perfectly.

Just porting the Webkit exploit we've made to work on 5.3.2/the Wii U in general.

So, just so I understand, this means full userspace access on every useful firmware version, and the kernel exploit is readily port-able?

Correct, plus this bug makes code control a lot easier.
