Hacking Does any know how to use wfs-extract?

[Deleted member 538022]

I've tried to get this working for several days now but it keeps on giving me errors. Here's what I've put: wfs-extract.exe --input "D:\Wii U Backup\mlc.bin" --output "D:\MLC DUMP" --otp "D:\Wii U Backup\otp.bin" --mlc

or

wfs-extract.exe --input "D:\Wii U Backup\mlc.bin" --output "D:\MLC DUMP" --otp "D:\Wii U Backup\otp.bin" [--seeprom "D:\Wii U Backup\seeprom.bin" [--usb] [--dump-path "D:\MLC DUMP"] [--verbos]

And it gives me this error every time:
Dumping...
Error: FileDevice: Failed to read from file.

Any suggestion guys?

the first one is right for mlc, but I always got an error on one file while it was dumping:

Okay thanks I'll give it a try.

 

[godreborn]

so what do you suggest I should do?

I'm not sure. it errors for me reading a certain file. it's the same file regardless of build. I think it's just buggy.

I see is there any alternative to extract the wfs files? Also I still got this error after putting
D:\Wii U Backup>wfs-extract.exe --input "D:\Wii U Backup\mlc.bin" --output "D:\Wii U Backup\Dump" --otp otp.bin --mlc
Dumping...
Error: FileDevice: Failed to read from file.

not sure what could be wrong. if you're dumping the mlc, you don't need the seeprom. that's only for usb, I believe. I know of no other app that can do this.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

it might help if you have what the mlc looks like. you have it all as one file, correct?

Yes I merged the files last week, do you think it could be the otp.bin file?

it's possible, I guess, but I don't know how that could've gotten screwed up.

I'll try dumping it again.

the error I mentioned is "cannot read" then it will give the file's location. it happens with all three dumps I have. it's always the same file too.

maybe wfs-extract is buggy.

possibly. I haven't tried older versions, but I have tried the 32 and 64 bit versions, and the result is the same. that could be your issue too.

Thanks for the reply bud I really appreciated it.

dunno what the problem is, but it's always the same file it can't read, and I have three dumps. I'd suggest trying an earlier version. I don't think the app has been updated since 2017.

Okay I'll try an older version
