Need a Xenoblade Chronicles US base for a few injections but I can't seem to be able to download it through UWUVCI no matter what. The download either gets stuck at some arbitrary point or it just keeps going after it's finished and the progress bar loops infinitely with the estimated wait time jumping all the way back up to its initial value.

Does anyone else have these issues? Is there a way to fix that?

Don't tell me about alternative places I can look for bases, that's very illegal. Or you can tell me so I know how to avoid those wretched places, of course.
 
Xenoblade Chronicles was already a Wii U downloadable game, so you could just get it on Wii U Download Helper or Wii U Downloader already ready to install through WUP Installer. Google is your friend.

Hey, thanks for the reply!

I know that. In fact I already have Xenoblade Chronicles installed on my Wii U. That's not why I need it. I don't need the game itself, I need the base so that UWUVCI can use it to inject other games that are not available through the Wii U Download Helper / Wii U Downloader / NUSpli etc. Most games require Rhythm Heaven Fever US for an injection but there are certain outliers like Sonic Unleashed(Unwiished) or Nights: Journey of Dreams which require XC.

Using the WUP installable XC I can get on through the WiiU Downloader for the injection doesn't seem to work either.

Unless whoever made the compatibility list made an error, it says the U.S. version of Xenoblade Chronicles is required for Sonic Unleashed Euro and the Euro version of Xenoblade Chronicles is required for Sonic Unleashed U.S. maybe that is your issue?

Nights U.S. is listed as only needed Rhythm Heaven Fever key.

I haven't used my Wii U in several years because I migrated to Cemu but I can tell you this, some of the games listed on that compatiiblity list say it needs Xenoblade key but I never used anything but Rhythm Heaven Key and installed quite a few of those exact same games, and AFAIK nothing really has changed in years. I would recommend trying the rhythm heaven fever key first then if it doesn't work try to change it to Xenoblade, and it appears that you may need both version of Xenoblade Euro and USA to get all of the games listed if that's what you're trying to do.

I'm in Europe, so I need European versions of games. Unless the compat list says the US version of the game works on Euro consoles ofc, so I need US XC for Euro Sonic Unleashed.

The compat list I'm using is the one on UWUVCI's github page (it won't let me link it) and there seem to be some differences. I'll try patching Nights with Rhythm Heaven Fever and see if it works.

Though beside those two games I also wanted Red Steel 2 and The Conduit, both of which require XC US. Both lists seem to agree on that.

Also just to reiterate: my problem isn't that I can't patch these games because the base I'm using is faulty. I quite literally cannot get my mitts on the required base to begin with because UWUVCI refuses to download it.
 
I've never used UWUVCI to help you with that because it's newer and I'm not using my Wii U anymore but I can tell you I installed both Red Steel 2 and Conduit 2 using rhythm heaven key, I would just always try it first regardless of what any compatibility list says IMO but it's up to you because they were probably U.S. versions that I used. I'm just telling i never had to switch keys and I injected tons of Wii games, even some of the ones saying use XC or others. And sometimes I did use Euro ISOs.

As far as XC I don't remember do you just need the key or the actual game? Because if you just need the game use Wii U Downloader, but I'm not sure about the key, maybe google for either.

I need the "base", whatever the hell that means. I checked the internal files of the base folder of Rhythm Heaven Fever that I used to patch most games and it seems different both from the WUP Installable files I can get through Wii U Downloader or ROMS I can get sailing the seven seas.

In other words I'm at a loss, so that's why I'm here.

UPDATE: I used Rhythm Heaven Fever US to inject all the games that listed Xenoblade Chronicles US as a requirement as Jayinem suggested and it seemed to have worked, so keep that in mind if you find this thread sometime later down the line!

Cheers.

I was looking for this awhile ago, so thanks a lot too, I was trying to play Smash Brawl on my modded Wii U
 
I think it is possible to get XC throught Wiiu downloader. You just have to select the option of decrypt content, and it should give you a file you can drag to the base games folder of UWUVCI}.

*I was wrong
