Hi,
I've been trying to read the FSA of Super Mario 3D World and Hyrule Worriors. But Every time the game/console freezes after a half - 2 minutes after clicking "Read FSA". wj44 has already helped me a lot with that but we still didn't find a final solution. He can properly read the FSA of Hyrule Warriors.
H93 has also tried to help me and gave me all the files he's using. But no success for me.
I can still read the FSA of all other games. Except for those mentioned before.
Is there an issue with my Wii U?

Here's a log TCP Gecko gives me every time the game freezes and it looses connection:
13.10.2015 17:28:54: Opened log
17:28:54: Exception occured!

Have you tried using NWPlayer123's newest TCP Gecko installer? Download here

Mine just has the latest rework for pyGecko, I reverted some stuff back so dNet works again, and has the search, as well as my big call function

Man I've been messing with this lately and it was a nightmare. I was able to get all 4 of my wii u games dumped but all were different. Some games would crash if I wasn't in game. I purchased a lan adapter cause wifi speed were slow. That made it worse. I'm going to try a diff model.

I have always used the attached client and payload and have never had an issue with Read FSA. It was what was included in my old DefinitivePackage. The one I have up now has FIX94's update for VC injecting, and I was going to get NWPlayer123's up for the next one, but I guess I'll have to test them out first. :P Try this one though:

Still freezes the system. Does it required a special kernel exploit?

For me it would only work at certain parts of the game. On Mario Kart I had to be in game. Once in game press Connnect then close error. Wait a minute then press FSA. Sometimes in game paused. It wasn't 100%. Any other way freezes me. Have to wait a few minutes for TCPGECKO to be responsive again and youll get a vol folder and no crash. No immediate crash / freeze is a good sign just be patient.

Using the newest Def Package BTW.

I have already tried reading the FSA while being in any menu and while being in a level (game was paused). Always froze the game within a half to 2 minutes after clicking the FSA button and TCP Gecko lost connection. But I can try out different places I think.
EDIT: really no success :(
The menu right before starting a battle takes the longest to freeze (almost 2 minutes).
In a battle while the game is being paused takes about 10 seconds.
Mode selection - 30 seconds, Adventure mode, 30 seconds

You can try the version I'm using to dump batman right now if you want.

This one freezes when loading, like the others posted here :(
may I ask what kexploit you are using?
Honestly, I can't even remember what version it is anymore. All I know is it's one that can go into settings and exit to try again. I think it's the one that was posted by Fix94 or someone last month. I've attached it in case you want to give it a whirl for the hell of it.

Edit. It's dated the 3rd of October apparently.

Still the same. All Gecko Installers here freeze on load..

Didn't help either. I have also noticed that the game instantly freezes when I click anywhere on TCP Gecko after clicking the "Read FSA" button.
I think it's an issue between my Wii U and TCP Gecko..

Will it freeze if you don't click? It was freezing on me 100% after about 20 tries then it started to work. Odd. On another comp its way better. Both win 7 64bit.

I've been having this same issue. I've dumped a few games already, but now even trying to dump the same games causes freezing in-game. I just assumed that I changed something and couldn't remember what I changed. I tried to dump Arkham City and it was working just fine (until my Wii U shut off to inactivity) but when I went back to try and dump it again it just freezes every time. So I tried it on other games (Arkham Origins, 007 Legends, Captain Toad, Hyrule Warriors, Kirby atRC, CoD BOII), and now it always freezes on me after a few minutes. I'm going to try and mess around with different versions tomorrow and see if I can work it out. The last game I successfully dumped was Epic Mickey 2. It's become a chore to get the exploit running just for it to crash on me.
Edit: I forgot to mention that when the game doesn't freeze, TCPgecko just looses connection and won't reconnect.

i dumped hyrule warriors fine on the main menu....do you have any patches/dlc installed? might be worth trying without them if you do

personally i would love it if the dump FSA feature could be dumped to SD instead, reading via wifi is pretty slow on bigger games (well actually it will be the same speed, but its bearable with smaller games XD)
