Hacking Loadiine GX2

[H1B1Esquire]

there is no way to play Wii U games from the SD card?

If you want to get reeeeaaaaly technical, yes, but:

so....yeah...but no.

As for loadiine, I use it for other games (DS games, mostly); it can also be used to set custom screen sizes, in some cases.

there is a way but loadiine just isnt worth it, you get hell of alot slower games to load and compatibility issues, some games might take minutes to load while installed take seconds and so on.

I see, thanks for the info! The problem is that I can only like install 1-2 games on the Wii U internal drive so it's a bit annoying. I have an external usb drive with two usb cables (Y cable i think its called) but when I try to install to it with the WUP Installer GX2 it barely moves at all. It seems like it would take over a day if not more to install just one game. Is that normal? Installing to the Wii U internal drive is very fast in comparison.

No, that is not normal. Which games are you trying to install? Also, You ARE trying to install to an external HDD right, not a USB Storage device? The term "USB Drive" always confuses me...

Tried to install Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze but it seems like it's with any game. Yep, using a proper external drive with Y cable both cables connected since I understand the Wii U needs the extra juice and cannot run the drive with just one cable connected. I wonder what could be causing such slow installs then :/ Hmm

Good, yes, the HDD not getting enough power could have been the problem, but so far so good. Have you installed any other games to the HDD or is this the first?

If this is the first game you are installing to an external HDD and you are using the Channel version of WUP Installer GX2, you will need to move the app over to the External hdd itself, since a bug prevents the Installer from installing games to an External HDD if it is not on the same drive.

You can do so using the Management system under Wii U Settings.

EDIT: For clarification, there are two versions of WUP installer GX2, the regular HomeBrew version, launched through the HomeBrew Launcher, and an installable version which installs as a Channel on the Wii U.

So just to make sure.. there is no way to play Wii U games from the SD card? I need to install them to the system or a external USB using the wup installer thingy, yes?

SOlution: buy the games and support the developer

Please explain to us how to load a purchased game onto the SD card, since you've claimed that as a solution.

if you purchase a game you dont need any space on sd card and play it without any extra steps needed

 

[MaLoLHDX]

The games... loaded.

The temporal solution was to indicate specifically where to boot. But when it booted the game (minecraft) it froze on the intro logo screen

To load minecraft with mii maker, when you start up your wii u choose a user with no nintendo network id registered. At least it's what i found and did and it worked.

I can help you with Project Zero. Just got the upload the data.

Can we make a thread about the xml files? It seems to be a problem, especially for games without updates.

Hey there! Is there a certain reason why you still use Loadiine? It's really a pain compared to the brasilian USB method.

I'm not sure if I still have the data.

Because I only got the Wii U and it only has been 'installed' with Loadiine xD
Also, I still don't understand to use brazilian USB method *still new to Wii U x(
Hope you still have it xD please inform me if you still have it !

It's just about the term. There is nothing about any "brazilian method". What you do is installing the original, untouched, unmodified files using the original installing functions (just called by the WUPInstaller instead of the OS itself).

Oh, I see. Thank for the info!

Nothing against Loadiine by the way. I played through Twilight Princess HD with this awesome tool and it was so much fun!

But it can't cross region, right? Or wrong? XD
I tried the method using uTikDownloader, but when it asked for ticket, I answered the link but it still asking the same question
