Hi, I have WiiU @ v5.3.2, original & modified kernels, have already used Dumpiine to get the .rpx from Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, and am now in the process of trying to pull the rest of the files off it using TCP Gecko.

TCP Gecko is up & running, can see the file structure and all that, and I've started copying the 'content' folder. The catch is I don't know how long this is supposed to take and would love a ballpark of 'it should be done in 12 hrs' or 'if it takes longer than 1hr you did something seriously wrong' sort of deal.

Thank you!

You're gonna get a few hundred KB per second through the router, go google how big the game is and you do the math

You'll get about 15-20MB a minute.
Game is about 2.8GB

140 min or so, or 2hr20m give or take.

Also depends on the amount of files the system has as well.

Faster to transfer 100 files of 2.8GB than to transfer 12,000.

Thanks gunner007!

Now to figure out if it really is as easy as 'put the content folder in SD:\WiiU\Games\Kirby, and the .rpx in SD:\WiiU\Games\Kirby\code'.

once tcp gecko connects go to memory viewer tab, then click read fsa, wait abit(if it doesnt crash) content will appear and you right click and save it to a desired location.

Are you sure you have spoofed to 5.5.0 (always on 5.3.2) and not update to the real 5.5.0 ?

It doesnt seem to be able to connect but yet im positive i put in the right ip address of the wiiu
I ran the aio kernal exploit selected original kernal went fine then the tcp gecko no freezes or anything, everything seemed to be fine
issue on pc is that it just keeps trying to connect but fails then asks to retry

What game? Jw cause if you put in the correct IP address of your Wii U, it should connect in a couple seconds.

Are you self hosting or using a site? I have pyGecko and an older version labeled TCPGecko (FSA) on my site. I have lots of random issues with the newer one. The older one works with MOST games for me though. Only a few needed the newer one, and the other games didn't work anymore for me.

No, I was just curious so I could give instruction.

Try hosting this version and see if it works. I know for certain it works with Smash, since it's the one I have to use with it. Lol

Thanks for your help working now :D
Tried your files
used the client on your site along with the other files you posted all works now
it connects was able to read the fsa all good
havent tried dumping project zero yet will do soon

thanks again for your help!

Edit: Currently dumping project zero :D
