Yeah no boot removing those files.

Do you know if the RPX file has a direction to every file in the disc?
Or if every file is listed inside the RPX file when it's decompressed and examined with an hex editor?

I have been trying to run Pokken and Twilight Princess HD on loadiine, but the load times are extremely long and the music cuts out at random. In Twilight Princess, the load times are 25 seconds on average. Is there anything I can do to alleviate this?
I Use a 16gb generic sdcard hc all these games your mentioning load almost instantly from it ...i made a folder on my laptop desktop called wiiu games n just swap em about to suit i just formated the sd card clicked default allocation size n fat32

I am using this one right now http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-micro...TF8&qid=1462589052&sr=8-2&keywords=sandisk+32 . I tried a couple other games, and they all have 25 second + load times.

I believe he's just testing them out by loading and booting it up once.

The problem we are talking about refer to loading times during gameplay.

I did a few tests so far:

1. unpack the files from pack.gz files and remove .arc files, only pack files left: black screen.
2. Remove only pack.gz files keep .arc files: black screen.

Right now I'm testing making a data000.cpk, data001,cpk and data002.cpk from all the files inside content folder. I'll report if this boots up.

Nope, black screen.

So, my guess is that RPX file, which is loaded firstly in loadiine has all the files from the disc indexed. If that is correct, if someday there's any software to edit those files it would be possible to point to a whole data.cpk with the entire content folder, much like an iso file.

I would not hold my breath on this because I believe it's easier for an USB mode to surface or even an iso loading option.

As of this moment the game is playable but with terrible loading times.

Thanks for the effort man! I appreciate the time you took!

I don't use micro adapter. just a plain SD maybe the adapter is what's slowing you down. mine are in-game load times not just starting up through loadiine. Twilight HD is 8 seconds opening doors/ going into new areas. might be 10 seconds max but no where near 25+ that would make me not want to play it honestly... it used to be like 10-15 seconds for me until I found that one fix file. Idk if it fixed loading times or just an error with the game.

The fix file you have is the one that made the US version able to boot. Nothing to do with loading times.
I've changed my cluster size to 64kb and formated my SD card.

Loading to anything is 5-8 seconds as you say, still the game when running from disc has 3 seconds boot time. The optical disc isn't that fast. I think something is bad implemented with loadiine or something.

Maybe with future versions this problem will be solved.

what about unpacking the arc file from the gz ones and renaming the arc back to pack.gz?

When you unpack the pack.gz files you get .pack files not arc. I guess arc should be inside the pack but I have no software to extract it.
My guessing is because arc is way smaller than pack files.

Also I see tons of files like this: (this is na example made up)

house01.arc
house02.arc
house.pack.gz

When you unpack you get house.pack or even house01.pack or house02.pack.
So my guess is that all those files were once a big file named house.something.

I have no idea. I don't have the WUD file to try extracting it myself.

I noticed something and was wondering if anyone else has an answer for this. The other day I was playing and I was getting about 12 second loading times, but recently I added some more games to my sd card, and the loading time is about 17-20 seconds now. Would removing my games affect the load speeds of the game being played?

I've got the game running on an UHS Class 1 Samsung SD Card and larger games startup in a few seconds on average. Maybe buy a better sd card?
