Either works, I have it in PATH globally.

I just finished an early version of my new WiiUExplorer program, which combines the previous small tools into one (and replaces them). It is able to display both uncompressed and Yaz0-compressed SARC files in a browser, and extract either individual files/folders or the entire archive. Writing support and other file formats will be added in the future.

Getting a 500 status code from dropbox. :-/

Edit: Internal server error, by the way.

Edit: Works now.

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.

@wj44
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.

You're using the unmodified codehandler?

 

[BullyWiiPlaza]

You're using the unmodified codehandler?

Yes, not yours.

 

[wj44]

Yes, not yours.

You have to use the unmodified codehandler:

Since I can't manage to make myself to compile stuff to upload to my Github, here's the headers for the unmodified TCP codehandler, I'll get source up on wiiudev some time later today.

Could anyone with access to the exploit please test the get_ip example I just added to my fork of libwiiu? It would be much appreciated. The steps for testing are:

1. Edit PC_IP in socket.h to match your computer's ip
   
2. Compile examples/get_ip
3. Start running listener.py on computer
4. Run program on Wii U

If the python console prints your Wii U's ip and the Wii U exits to the home screen, please tell me that the program works.

('Connected by ', ('192.168.1.47', 3682))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "listener.py", line 12, in <module>
data = conn[0].recv(512)
socket.error: [Errno 10054] An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

This is after a restart of my computer, since it said the same thing before but I figured it was from having TCPGecko open before or something. The Wii U kicked me back to the options menu ("You have no suspended software." Wii U Menu or Wii U Manual).

I realized what I did wrong. Expect a fix soon (which I would also like you to test).

I should be home to test for the rest of the night (EST).

Honestly, its amazing how much progress has been made in the past year in this scene. Awesome job people!

 

[AboodXD]

I remember when people said Wii U hacking is just a dream, and that wasn't too long ago.

Good job @NWPlayer123 @Marionumber1 @Hykem and whoever helped, you made this dream become true and really in a short time!

Talking about Hyken what happened to him we never got any news back from him, did he gave up on iosU?

He's been off for quite a while. Haven't heard from him on Skype either.

Are WiiU's in the stores today still on 4.1.0/5.0.1/5.3.2? (EU, The Netherlands)
I have a WiiU on 2.1.0, but I want to HW dumping stuff on it, and even Hello World doesn't run on it (freezes like all the time).

I wanna code/try stuff, heh.

wouldnt it be better to update you wiiu to 5.3.2 with splatton or mario party 10 rather than getting another wiiu? i mean 2.1.0 is preety useless imo.

Yes exactly, I did that. It was a good decision so far because I can use basically everything
