Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

[TotalInsanity4]

No, that's definitely possible, but my point is that once we get that far as to loading a brand new RPX/RPLs and can load files fast enough (meaning getting USB working), we'd basically have a backup loader. Of course I'm not interested in going that far, that takes all the fun out of it

So... *scratches head* would something like Newer be possible with ONLY the kernel exploit, or would it require an IOSU exploit?? Sorry if I sound incompetent, but the way you're saying it could be taken both ways

There's gotta be at least SOME progress made for Wii U games to be hackable. At least will there be a way to burn them on discs and play on the Wii U soon?

The disc drive will almost certainly reject non-Wii(U) discs, even if the data is exactly the same and would pass the signature check.

Yes, it would. We can access and replace all code for the game, along with all files. It's just a matter of making it easy to access and use

no :< that would entail backup loader

Oh, I always figured you downloaded the Nintendo Land backup and changed those files and caffeine loaded them from your computer to the Nintendo Land Disk in your wiiu. But you do all these game mods with out the backup files?

The entire point of Cafiine is that you can replace individual files without having to have a copy of the entire game's files.

Oh, no, I still have the extracted files from the WUD I got forever ago, but I can just as easily rip them with TCPGecko

When I said change the files in Nintendo Land to make it a entirely different game. I just meant it as a slight against the game. But to make it an entirely different game wouldn't make any sense I suppose because caffeine is intended to actually change little things. It uses the wiipad as a gyroscopic viewfinder thing though right? I bet there could something cool to make with whatever is in Nintendo Land. Not meant seriously bother making a new game out of it though.

Edit : is it gyroscopic or accelerromic?

That really blows. I hope a USB Loader will be in the works.

I wonder if waninkoko will suddenly reappear on the scene once IOSU exploit goes public and develops a USB loader similar to what he did with team tweezers work from Wii days...

The final hurdle will be defeating the loader ...if f0f didn't manage that.

Interesting days are coming for The Wii U that's for sure.

And he will end up bricking yet another console.

And he will end up bricking yet another more consoles.

Fix'd for you.

Smashbros wii u with custom music!! Cant wait!

 

[panmusic]

Can anyone give me an idea about an hypothetical cheat app? How is going to work?
Is it necessary to have a) a new Wii U HBC to start the app and load the codes or b) while in-game start the internet browser,type an address and from there load a code or scan a QR code?

 

[BullyWiiPlaza]

b) while in-game start the internet browser,type an address and from there load a code or scan a QR code?

Yet I'm not sure whether the Wii U can scan (and handle) QR codes or not.

It can, but only inside Mii Editor.

Why explain everything 5 times in a pm, instead of posting it once publicly, so everyone can see it?

OK.

I also just added BFSTM downloads, though it's only up to 2 channels.

BFWAV? That would be awesome! Also, BFSTMs downloaded from BCM are working with vgmstream plugin in foobar2000, that means they will work on the actual console, I think...

Will the kernel exploit have enough permissions to load discs from a different region? Or will region free require an IOSU exploit?

 

[EclipseSin]

I can't answer for certain, but if the kernel exploit allows memory patching, it could be possible if the region is accessible. Meaning individual games would need patches. But that is a long shot, hardly seen today. I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the area that would need modified is actually behind the IOSU wall though, mostly because it probably works on the device level.

 

[NWPlayer123]

IOSU, sadly all disc and install based loading checks are done with IOSU before being passed to the loader once it's verified.
