LoL I have to try that. Which is the path to put those files on the SD?
Put the file you want to add on the root of your SD card. When you open wupclient, type mount_sd() and hit enter. Type in w.cp then type in the path. The path of the SD card is /vol/storage_sd/ then type the name of the file. After that, set up the path of the usb and it should work.

Once the upload is complete, will I be able to dump that "modified" game in installable format and share it?

@xtheman166 this is the error I'm getting:
To install the created packages, you'll need the newest iosuhax rednand version.
https://github.com/dimok789/iosuhax
Are you sure you're on redNand with the newest patches?

Still detecting too big files for me... :(
Yes is detecting them, and then handling them correctly. Its more an info than a warning/error

Loadiine games packed with this will install to sysNAND or at least, to the patched one (using CFWBooter, not redNAND)?
Please note that the ddd dumped /code folder DOES NOT work. The .xml files are generated and some .rpl's may missing. You need to redump them with wupclient or get them from NUS.

I did some testings.
The games installed on the rednand to my HDD doesn't work on patched sysnand.
The games installed to my patched sysnand, work on my patched sysnand
The games installed on patched sysnadn to HDD doesn't work on rednand

Idk if something is wrong with my hdd, but currently you can't share the installed titles between sysnand and rednand.

I personally would just not play arround with my sysnand. Just use the rednand with the right patches! Those <20 bucks for an 64gb SD card are worth it.

Does anyone know how to dump a disk's meta folder using wupserver?
I updated my wupclient java port to dump discs.
https://github.com/Maschell/JWUPClient
Start with
Code:
java -jar jwupclient.jar 192.168.x.x

then this command is was you're looking for.
Code:
dumpdisc -file /meta/.*

This copies the meta folder to your sd card (sd:/dumpd/[titleid])

You way want to redump the /code/ folder too as the ddd ones won't work with nuspacker.
Code:
dumpdisc -file /code/.*

Thanks!

I'm sure i'm doing somthing wrong. It seems to connect but entering "dumpdisc -file /meta/.*" gives me these errors.
Code:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: de/mas/wupclient/client/operations/SpecialOperations

How can I transfer files from SD to Wii U with wupclient GUI? I don't know exactly the path where I have to put the files I want to transfer.

I tried using wupclientgui at first, but I couldn't figure it out either. It's a lot easier to do with the original wupclient.

Here's a good explanation by @TheCyberQuake

Just a bit of knowledge for those who were interested:
You can place any files you want to copy to the wii u (rom.zip, meta files, etc.) onto the SD card. From there you can use the mount_sd() command to mount it from wupclient, and then you can use the w.cp command to copy a single file from SD to NAND/USB, something like this:
w.cp("/vol/storage_sdcard/rom.zip", "/vol/storage_usb01/usr/title/00050000/10179B00/content/0010/rom.zip")

Another thing you could do is place any meta files you want to change for a VC game, and then use the w.cpdir command to move them all at once:
w.cpdir("/vol/storage_sdcard/meta", "/vol/storage_usb01/usr/title/00050000/10179B00/meta")

That's a much faster way to copy over modified meta files.

Edit: Also the same thing can be done in reverse to dump files faster than doing so over the network.
Also looking into it, you can use the same technique to dump a 1:1 decrypted (loadiine-ready) copy of a game if you use mount_odd_content() and then w.cpdir from /vol/storage_odd_content to SD. Not of much use now, but for games that are disc only it would allow us to dump the game, encrypt it to install-ready files using other software, and then with a forged ticket install to sig-patched redNAND
Put the file you want to copy on the root of your SD card and instead of typing rom.zip, type in the name of the file and edit the usb path to work with the game you're editing.

Yes.
The first post is refering to dimoks iosuhax, so I think you need to use it ;)

Fix94's has never had sig patches on sysNAND. It's only wupserver afaik
