    Homebrew FTPD server does not work (neither does ftpiiu on Aroma on Wii U)

    Hi, Is there a good reason ftpd wouldn't work? I'm running ftpd v3.1.0, the latest installed straight from fbi from the github link, both versions tried. been through every thread on this forum and reddit, none of the solutions help I've tried filezilla, winscp and multiple other ftp clients...

    Getting perfect 480p output from a Wii U

    I'm considering buying a 4k scaler for my MiSTer and I'm wondering if my Wii U will benefit from it. I have Aroma installed with resolution modification. I also have forwarders for Wii Flow that are able to boot vWii mode into 480p mode, 720p, 1080p etc. So potentially I can just boot into 480p...

    Hacking Questions about the state of Wii U

    The benefit of using a USB stick is you can have diskless mods of Mario Kart Wii and SSBB that run their mods off the SD and therefore can't simultaneously get the bandwidth to run the game off the same SD. However if you don't care about Project+ and CTGP (you can run project M instead of plus...

    Hacking ROM Hack Editing GameID in mod breaks save functionality

    maybe just a case that the devs hard coded the ID in as a const on PSO and other games pulled it from the game. gamecube dev was before my time though so I have no idea how the api works haha

    Hacking ROM Hack Editing GameID in mod breaks save functionality

    Haha, nice to see you. Looking forward to playing your mod The thing that provoked this thread is a new mod called Return to Ragol for Phantasy Star Online. I did as you said here, and changed GPOE8P to GPOE9P. Doing that caused the game to crash instantly when trying to create a save file...

    Hacking ROM Hack Editing GameID in mod breaks save functionality

    Hacking ROM Hack Editing GameID in mod breaks save functionality

    Just tried to play Phantasy Star Online EI&II: Return to Ragol, which is a mod. I added a custom banner for wiiflow, that obviously requires a new gameID, so I hex edited it to giive it a new GameID, but doing that broke saves inside the game. Using the same game code, it has the same ID and...

    My Wii U soft bricked

    You can also just temporarily use stroopwafel version 1.0 and that won't disable updates from minute. After that, if you boot without an SD card in and you followed the steps on getting it to boot, Aroma shouldn't boot so it won't block the updates and you should be able to update. I did this...

    Hacking [RELEASE] UWUVCI + Injectiine

    Sorry, to be clear - when I said GC compatibility I meant Wii game compatibility with a Gamecube controller not GC iso injection, I don't mean playing GC games over Nintendon't. I want to play Super Smash Bros Brawl and Mario Kart Wii with GCC support. I've attempted to inject a clean US rip of...

    Hacking [RELEASE] UWUVCI + Injectiine

    Question: I want to use injects for GC compatibility, but after launching the installed channels, my Wii U just reboots. I checked the compatibility list and used seemingly compatible combinations, I'm on Aroma so it should be region free, and I used violator's SigPlugin so I can definitely...

    My Wii U soft bricked

    @AhmetOmer a wii remote should be able to pilot the menu without a gamepad. but.. you can just put the stuff back on the sd card. other than your memory dump (which you've deleted and which you should always back up), there's nothing special about the files on your sd card, you can just follow...

    My Wii U soft bricked

    I'm assuming if you were following the guide that your vwii bricked because you used decaffeinator to remove the system menu, and because you had minute installing you were blocking updates so you couldn't do a system update afterwards? The solution to that is to use an old version of wafel I...

    Hacking Hardware Homebrew Mandatory Game Disc Updates in 2024-onward

    You just wrote 1000 words to agree with my point. Congrats. Imagine, if you'd just read my original post you would've saved yourself half an hour. in the resolution to the thread before I arrived OP said this: "the Wii U reads Arkham City's digital version as Version 16, and with really no more...

    Project+ with Wiiflow Lite using WBFS on SD troubleshooting

    @Exidous From speaking to the people in discord, apparently the problem is that P+ regularly reads content from the SD (the Project+ folder on root), including hacks to increase the music library beyond what's regularly possible ingame. because of that, you can't also read the game itself from...

    Homebrew Need help with vWii gc adapter for project M

    Resurrecting this pretty old thread because it's still pretty interesting, as far as I know this still doesn't exist, right? e.g. Brawl/Project M compatibility with GCC while USB/SD loading? I was interested to read this post about microphones and instruments not working. Because back in the...
