Go watch this video.



See that ? Proof that the iosu is finished.
So either Smea has his own iosu. (Possible but a complete waste of time since Hykem was working on it, plus Hykem said he is coordinating with the "other" team for a release .)
Or Hykem finished it and gave it to Smea to continue development.
Thus he did lied, its not a matter of him missing the deadline, its a matter of him telling everyone he would release when ready and didnt.


IF you followed things you would have known that Smea and his team had IOSU already. Plutoo (@qlutoo) posted on his twitter when they found out Hykem was close to releasing which nearly made Hykem abandon things completely as he thought they was in a better position to drive the hombrew scene. Smea and his team had no intentions of releasing IOSU they just wanted to prove they got it first. When Hykem found out he decided to continue.

Its stupid now, every topic is being turned into a let's bash Hykem thread. Just forget about him life has so much more to it than whining on a forum about how someone lied because they didn't meet a deadline date. Everyone deserves to have an opinion but it gets a little boring when you keep expressing it over and over on every topic. Especially when most of the information being spread is wrong.

Wasnt aware of that but if plutto's image is proof of a "finished" isou exploit then Hykem posted a similar image some time ago.
Since Hykem's last post saying he is coordnating with the other team on when to release it exploit, I believe Smea convinced him to share with them and continue developing the exploit but not to release it until they are finished doing whatever they are trying to achieve.
Which is a real shame because if Smea could have emunand running in about a month imagine what 50 developers could have done in the 3 months now this is beening kept private.

God you people are whiny over privileged little turds.
Posts like these are reason enough that people don't deserve this to be released.

People like Hykem have lives outside of Wii-U.
Do you even understand what it takes to find these exploits, to program them, to make them useful.
And then on top of all that - share them with all of us for FREE, when they could have just kept them for personal use.

In all actuality/reality they don't have to release squat, I think you are all actually pretty lucky to have someone continue on with all this. If this was me I would have grown tired of all this and kept this private.
Take your newcomer ass elsewhere if you don't like it!

I'm glad it wasn't released February, even if it wasn't meant to be. The truth of it all is the people complaining got trolled, trolled hard.

I forgot to ask, when the IOSU is released, will it be okay to use a USB for emuNAND and Loadiine? It's just nagging my head.

Ask Hykem. He's the one developing the whole package that will be released.

I'm assuming yes to the USB, but no one knows until it's released, except Hykem.

Trust me, it will be a miracle if Hykem replies. I bet his inbox is full of angry kids.

Lol I bet it is.

I wasn't really saying to ask him, since I'm sure he isn't going to respond to the average user. I'm just saying that we can only speculate. We have no idea on some of the specifics. Only people that know right now is him and whomever he shares info with.

Welp! Waiting is the only option to find out then. Even if it's SD only, they are very cheap nowadays. I just prefer USB since they are faster.

Why would you assume USB faster?
Depends, I think USB 2.0 tops 60Mb/s, there's cards surpassing that by a lot. Can't remember USB 3.0 speeds though.

I would assume that any homebrew would be run off SD. USB, if/when it comes will just be for a USB loader to load backups. Great for all the extra space.

Emunand I'm sure will run off SD.

When comparing a Flash Drive with SD Card, it is quite similar in writing and reading speeds.
Of course having a SSD disk trough USB 3.0, that's a completely different story.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
