    Homebrew The Wii U Homebrew Request Thread

    i checked hidtovpad and it seems like you can only map to gamepad and pro controllers 1-4, unless im missing something. i put in a suggestion there as well. i couldnt find anything about emulating the board, although someone did ask about it.

    Homebrew The Wii U Homebrew Request Thread

    that's what i thought, but the board is actually used to navigate the menus from what i can tell. that being said, i havent been able to find any saves for wii fit u to actually try that. there appears to be a request on the wii u saves thread that is exactly that. a game mod could also solve...

    Homebrew The Wii U Homebrew Request Thread

    App that initializes Wii Fit Meter without needing a balance board. Doesn't matter if some generic mii data is used, just something to make a new Fit Meter work as a pedometer. New Fit Meters need to sync with Wii Fit U to be used (they just show the sync screen), and Wii Fit U requires a...

    Activating Wii Fit Meter Without Balance Board

    oh it controls the menus too? im probably out of luck then. I'll take a look at hid2vpad tho. yeah i didnt really need to use the pedometer with the software, just wanted to activate the step count (all it does out of box is show the connect screen). amazon reviews said it didnt need the game so...

    Activating Wii Fit Meter Without Balance Board

    I have a new Wii Fit pedometer, but it cant be used until it's activated by the game. I installed cfw on my Wii U, installed Wii Fit U, but i cant get past the screen that says to connect the balance board. I don't have a balance board. Does Wii Fit U require a board before the title screen...

    Gaming Restoring saves from SD card

    Everywhere I look says it can't be done, but I don't understand why, what's different from backing up a save with JKSM or something? I just want to understand why.

    Gaming Restoring saves from SD card

    This looks like it might be it EDIT: nvm, this requires me to be able to use the game to get different versions of the save If save managers decrypt/change the format of the save using the 3ds, shouldn't there be a way to do this on pc? I don't really know how it works, but there must be some...

    Gaming Restoring saves from SD card

    Think I could use a save editor or something on the original save and then copy it into a new save? Idk, I'm just kinda trying anything I can basically.

    Gaming Restoring saves from SD card

    Ok, so just moving the .sav file didn't work (somewhat expected), so I'm now trying to find a way to patch the old save with the new key

    Well, I'll give it a try anyway and see what happens, and if not, I'll just try working on what I was gonna do before

    Gaming Restoring saves from SD card

    That won't work because the o3ds has already been factory reset by the transfer from before, which didn't work right (the reason I'm doing this is a failed transfer) I think I'm gonna see if I can do anything with what this says, basically from what I can tell I need to find a way to change the...
