Hacking [RELEASE] Wii U USB Helper, a small eShop for Windows !

[bobfat]

Yes its brilliant!

I downloaded wii sports club EUR. but the icons are greyed out.. Not sure how to get around this if possible. Opened separate thread to see if anyone else has managed it.

This is the error I got when setting the folder to a network destination:



Edit: now reading the error seems that is a permission issue, I'm gonna try to set the privileges correctly and get back to you

I thought that Wii U home brew couldn't get internet access... has that changed?

Yep, sure can. Look at this thread.

 

[DanTheMan827]

Yep, sure can. Look at this thread.

Hmm... so something like CIAngel for the Wii U WOULD be possible then... interesting...

Now I just need to learn how... any good Wii U coding resources?

The installation issues could be due to the file being named "setup.exe" as Windows applies a lot of compatibility patches and hooks to executables with that name. Mostly related to Windows Vista-era UAC compatibility, but it's still worth a shot to try renaming it.

Alternatively, just run the .application file straight from the Github repository -- the setup exe isn't actually needed. https://cdn.rawgit.com/Kazegaya/wiiu/master/deploy/WiiU_USB_Helper.application

Hope dantheman827 doesn't mind me posting this. I used http://rawgit.com/ to create a URL that serves the proper MIME type, but all I did was paste a link to a file on a public github repository.

Hey thanks for your message.
If you are referring to bobfat's issue, it has been solved and had something to do with a broken application cache.
The setup.exe is indeed required to installed the prerequisties (most notablly .net 4.5) if those are not present.
Using the .application only works if all the requirements are met, otherwise it won't execute.


PS: Anyway, thanks for you link, I don't mind But I will still be providing the executable for the aforementioned reasons.

I used this to get the files, needed for wup to install my disc version of paper mario, but wup gives an error about not being dlc or version ticket so I can't install, any idea ?

Gosh I used to read where one could go for resources but the name escapes me. I think it was something along the line of WiiUBrew. Perhaps this could help you get started. Again you would need to figure out how to get around the slow speed issue that the Wii U has, especially for full games.

That's a known issue. In Loadiine they work with Smash launch mode only.
As far as I know using the "Brazilian USB exploit" which this is tool here is about you've gotta install them as DLCs (redNAND only of course).

Hello and thank you for you message.
Unfortunately, as the title suggests, this tool is intended to be used as a USB Helper.
Consequently, files downloaded by it are kept encrypted and are not usable by software like loadiine which requires decrypted content.
To use them with loadiine you'll either have to download them already deciphered or decipher them yourself with one of the other tools present here.

How can I help with translation?

 

[lembi2001]

Just found that some of the updates for some games are reporting as not completed. I have deleted the update and redownloaded and also tried to redownload without the update folder being deleted:

Tekken Tag Tournament 2
Fifa 13
Nintendo Land
NBA 2k13

Anyone else have this problem?
