Wait, so you loaded a 64MB ROM over a 32MB ROM and it worked?

Also, what are the differences between your TCPGecko and FIX94's pyGecko?

Kriby is 64 mb lol

Squeak Squad is 64MB, I'd need to edit code to make it allocate 2x. 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

Does it include FIX94's added piece to run the injection stuff, or are we going to have to keep 2 versions on hand?

Yes, that's what the search is, makes it easy to look for stuff

 

[fiveighteen]

Sorry, didn't realize that "the search" meant the same search that FIX uses. Thanks!

Does someone know if the patch functions of loadiine and cafiine (MAKE_MAGIC in fs.c and all that stuff) can be used to patch arbitrary RPL functions? I don't really know a lot about PPC ASM and I just wanted to reuse those. So I just tried to patch some functions of the AOC library and replaced them with simple OSFatal calls, but it seems that it doesn't work. I'm not sure about it but normally the AOC library should be used by games like Hyrule Warriors or Mario Kart because they use addon content (And I checked that at least the HyruleWarriors rpx imports and uses them somewhere). To patch the functions I used the addresses from OSDynLoad_FindExport because I got the right results also for the already patched FS functions.

Spoiler: Code

PROVIDE(AOC_Initialize = 0xf892a38);
PROVIDE(AOC_OpenTitle = 0xf892a40);
PROVIDE(AOC_GetPurchaseInfo = 0xf892c2c);
PROVIDE(AOC_ListTitle = 0xf892488);

DECL(int, AOC_Initialize, void) {

    char test[3];
    test[0]='I';
    test[1]='N';
    test[2]='\0';
    OSFatal(test);
    return real_AOC_Initialize();
}

MAKE_MAGIC(AOC_Initialize)

But after patching the functions like this simply nothing happens. The game runs completely normal. I would understand if the game would crash because I didn't really looked what is going to get patched, but that nothing happens somehow confuses me. Does someone know what I could be doing wrong? Or how I could find out whats happening?

is the web addresses to block wii u updates the same if you have a japanese wii u?

Quick question:
When I read the FSA with TCP Gecko does the file tree include data of the game update?
I have noticed that my dump of Hyrule Warriors is much bigger than stated on other sources

Yes, it does.

Also, committed the latest pyGecko source, please use this for everything, should work with dNet, all of FIX94's tools, and the latest .py library I'm about to push too.

Thank you

please someone let me know when there's a compiled version
