All except F-Zero X [00050000101ebc00] now show up in the regular list.

I still have had no luck using the "Import Games" function to add my own eShop games.
I made sure all of the sub directories are just one level deep, and every game includes a title.tmd, but I just get a "No games were found. Please specify another path"
No matter how I setup the path, it isn't finding them.

Is there something special I must do? (besides making sure they are only one level deep and contain a title.tmd)

Hmm the app will not let you import games that you have already downloaded, even partially, maybe that's what's causing the issue ?

Thanks, now F-Zero X is showing up.

I think I'm just wrong about what the Import Games feature does.

I thought it was to add games that we have, but are not on the list.

Like I have:
Draw 2 Survive
99 Moves
99 Seconds
1001 Spikes
Ultratron
Don't Crash
...and so on.

These are not on "that title key site's" list - and do not show up on USB Helper - but I have them on my local hard drive.

Btw be careful about F-Zero X because I believe the region indicated on that site is incorrect. It's a EUR title but it's indicated as a USA title.
Also, the import feature will only work with games downloadable from NUS and for which tickets/ and or titles keys are available in the source specified.
If you happen to have tickets and/or title keys which are not yet on that title key site then I advise you to post them so the application can handle them properly.

I had the same error on some downloads, mostly when they were second in the queue. What files are you trying to download? To me it happened on mostly updates and 2 games. I think it's a connection to the games server problem. And there's no way to solve this, you need to delete the corrupted download, and try again, until it works.

In Spanish... yo tuve el mismo error en algunas descargas, sobre todo en updates y cuando las descargas estaban en segundo puesto en la lista de descargas, creo que si es un problema de conexión con el servidor de los juegos, puede ser que solo sea con unos archivos, o que pase indiscriminadamente de vez en cuando, no se la solución o no hay, solo borra lo que lleva descargado hasta el momento, reiniciar el programa e intenta de nuevo, eso hice y así pude completar las descargas. Que juegos o archivos son? Trata con archivos de poco peso, para que veas que si se pueden descargar completos.

Muchas gracias amigo me sucede con la mayoria de descargas esten o no esten algunas en cola siempre me arroja ese error de conexion algunas veces se estabiliza y termina ese segmento de la descarga luego al iniciar otro segmento arroja el error y en algunas veces llevando un 70% arroja el error y se vuelve a descargar el mismo segmento del juego dice algo size mitchmaking o incongruencias con el tamaño.

I'll update the tik files I have

The one I see is: F-Zero X [00050000101ebc00]
When I extract it and look at the meta.xml it is a USA version : WUP-N-NAWE

That's weird, when I look up the titleid id on nus I only get result on European stores, not American ones

I don't think there's a F-Zero X Wii U VC in the USA as of today.

Edit: looks like the rom is NTSC, that could explain the product code. I'm still fairly certain this title is for European systems though.

OK, I uploaded more tickets they didn't have from my purchased eShop

Also keep in mind that the "Official" WiiBrew Title Database is woefully inaccurate and needs much maintenance.
There's a lot of incorrect data up there now, and no one seems to be maintaining it anymore.

For example, a lot of the "Tagged as Missing TMD" are wrong, so if you have the .tik files for some that say NO TMD - you should upload those too.


Update: I have updated the WiiBrew Wiki to correct the "NO TMD" entries.

Of the marked "NO TMD" titles on the WiiBrew Wiki
83% were wrong for USA Titles.
65% were wrong for JAP Titles.
72% were wrong for EUR Titles.

Can we install Eshop games with this tool or method?

If you use the CFW method yes, you also need to use it to play them.

OK, I added a bunch more to "that other site" that wiibrew says don't have TMD - but I checked them with UWizard and they actually do have the .TMD!

For some odd reason - some of the new ones show up on "that other site" with the title keys, but they are not showing up with USB Helper (yet?)
I'm not sure what triggers USB Helper to re-check "that other site"
I know it's not the "Refresh" button because I see things on "that other site" that don't show up in USB Helper after a Refresh.


When set to USA and Games Only, "that other site" says 370 titles are available.
13 of those actually don't have .TMD's, so that leaves 357 good titles that USB Helper should "see" - but right now it says 353, so it is missing 4:
Kirby Canvas Curse [00050000101b8900]
Free Balling [00050000101aca00]
Dreamals: Dream Quest [0005000010203b00]
Demonic Karma Summoner [00050000101ef400]


Idea!
Maybe someone far better than I with Programming can create a small app for the PC that will copy all of the title.tik from our already downloaded libraries and create a tickets.rar file in the correct format for USB Helper.

This would be a great addition for two reasons:
1 - if "that other site" goes down for some reason.
2 - so we can update it with new things that USB Helper doen't show up for awhile after we upload them to "that other site"

One small question:
What Games can i Play with a normal EUR WiiU without a Custom Firmware?

In the Moment i only give the "WiiU USB HELPER" These "Tickets v26.rar".
And i see only 115 available Games in the EUR Part.
But in this "Tickets v26.rar" are 122 Folders with Games Titles in the "EUR" Folder.
Where are my fault?

Can i also Download the US-Games and can i Play it on my "EUR WiiU" ???

Until USB Helper updates and add these, you can always use FunKiiU-2.0.2.
FunKiiU-2.0.2 updates every time you run it - no waiting

To get what you listed above, just run

python FunKiiU.py -title 00050000101b8900 -onlinekeys
python FunKiiU.py -title 00050000101aca00 -onlinekeys
python FunKiiU.py -title 0005000010203b00 -onlinekeys
python FunKiiU.py -title 00050000101ef400 -onlinekeys

There seems to be some confusion as to why some games do not appear in the app.
That is because in order to have the size, the icons, banners etc I have to maintain a separate DB.
I have more games on this DB that there are on the site but I don't have them all.
So sometimes new games on that site will show up instantly, sometimes you will have to wait for me to add them.
I try to do my best, but I'm not available 24/7.

No worries, your program gives a nice looking UI and is well worth the wait.
It's just that sometimes people are impatient and look for a way to "get it now"


(Edit: you caught the 00050000101ef400 error while I typed this)

Yeah sorry I just saw the 'e' in 00050000101ef400 and thought it was an update, until I realized it wasn't in the right spot xD

Next Update...
... you are amazing !!!
