So yestoday i finally got haxchi on my Wii u. I play Super Mario bros wii u. But i try to find alot of USA Loadliine Like Yoshi's Wolly world but all i find is Eu versions. Idk if it matters ... but my wii u is USA. Also I want to know which one is quicker? Or theres an alternative method besides ripping your own WUD and then decompressing it with a Loadlinne tool.

u cant install it as a wud, gotta use this program to install with WUP https://github.com/FIX94/wud2app/releases
just put the wud on the exe on youre good to go
Im so confused... after uysing Funkii i use this? btw i have some WUD's in my PC already like mario kart 8? i skip the funkiwiiu program or what. And is the online feature risky?

with funkiiu, then no, it should just download in the format compatible with wupinstaller, I thought you had a wud file which you need to use the program I linked to convert it into a way for wup to install. and online should work fine

Also the WUD2app program opens but closes?

Then no, you need to use wud2app for that then

you dirty pirate
Sorry for all that questions. last thing, from now on i download wud files and use this because is simpler i guess? IDK how it works thoe...... Also so online play is activated? i thought only brazilian method allowed this. SO after this turns from a wud to app i use wud installer? I have wud from a site called portalroms.... so like dont they need to be sigpatched or something of that sort. SO Like lastly, downloading wud files ultimately is easier then normal loadline ready games?

Thats a horribly convoluted method and most likely wont work, just use funkii-ui to download the game, install with wupinstaller.

Wup is better, permanent games on home menu + faster load times + more compatability.
It has to be my own duped Dics WUD? or what can it be one random one from online

So let me get this clear? I have a WUD file from a site. I used to use it with Cemu emulator. i take that and add it in to Funkiiwiiu and also idk where to find Title keys for funkiwiiu

You're confusing WUD, WUP and Brazillian Method

WUD -> Original releases from years ago
WUP Installer -> Wii U homebrew app that installs full games, updates, dlc and VC to system menu or USB
Brazilian Method -> Using full disc tickets to install downloads from NUS (use Wii U Helper or FunKiiUNETThingy to get the games)

If you have a wud file that you use on CEMU you need to use the program above to convert it to a group of files the WUP installer can install

The easiest way to go is to use Wii U USB Helper to download the full game, DLC, updates and or VC titles. Then just put them in a folder on your SD card called "install" in the root. Then use WUP installer and you're good to go.

You download them with Wii U Helper and then you transfer them to SD for installation. Get the app store for your HBL. Go on there and download WUP installer. Then use WUP installer to install the game to system memory or USB from the SD card.

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    One thing that just occurred to me.... The sound on the 2600 sucked less back then the harsh sound we hear now is from infinitely better speakers we have now, back when the 2600 was new speakers produced a almost muffled sound, like CRTs made old graphics look slightly better.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I wonder if I could recommend that to some emulation devs that perhaps the sound could use some smoothing out to simulate those old TVs
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think a few of the early systems could benefit from that, at least up to the 8 bit generation, by the 16 bit generation I think TVs had gotten a lot better in almost every way

    It's old but it's the best firmware out for DS stuff

    it says it only works for the original R4, R4i Gold (r4ids.cn), R4iDSN (r4idsn.com) and Acekard R.P.G.

    nvm it does support mine

    Just give it a try, but honestly if you have a 3DS you can play DS games without a card just off the internal SD card

    Slightly slower loading but a bit more convenient
