Hacking How to quickly tell if a wii U game has SD card permissions?

[xdarkmario]

as the title says, is there some quick way to see if a game has permission to use sd card? perhapse something in the IMG dump files?

AFAIK, the SD card is only for compatibility with vWii. I don't think any WiiU software actually takes advantage of it.

No, many games use it such as Smash for wii U and mii maker.

You can see it in the cos.xml:
if permissions->UHS (value & 0x00000000000B0000) the app has SD access

thanks, thats a quick way, the 2 games have no 0x00000000000B0000 value in the code\cos.xml so i guess that they dont have access.

FYI the only four known Wii U apps that have access to the SD Card are:

• Mii Maker
• Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
• Art Atelier
• KaraokeU

That makes sense since those can be used with Loadiine. My mistake

what's about the usb permissions in other games with "special" devices, like Lego Dimensions, Skylanders or Disney Infinity?

USB has multiple APIs, it's using HID, we need UHS to access storage which MCP locks access to

I thought to read/write NFC tags, HID permission was not enough,
