Play Zelda BOTW with All DLC for FREE without CFW

Cyan · Jul 3, 2017

you can fix it by deleting your ticket and your data.

1. if the issue is the DLC data, go to data management, and delete the DLCs (you can keep the game, updates, and savegame). note: maybe that step is not necessary because the issue can be the ticket only, but it's cleaner to get DLC again to be sure your data is not really corrupted.

If you don't know your ticket file, follow step2+3, otherwise go to step4
2. use tik2SD, and choose "console" if you have the game installed on the console (disc, if you play from game disc)
3. look in the .txt to find your ticket file matching your DLCs (you should already know your path and filename if you followed this tutorial)

4. use ftpiiu_everywhere to access the DLC's ticket path, and 1) backup the ticket to computer (if you didn't keep it from tik2sd), 2) delete the ticket from the console (only that one ! not the other files)

Now you should be able to get the language pack again from eshop
if you purchased the DLC officially from eShop, then eShop will auto-regenerate a good ticket and you will be able to download the DLC officially.
You need to delete a fake ticket before being able to get officially bought titles from eShop.
if you didn't purchase it officially, you can reinstall it from WUP installer and follow the tutorial again.

Maybe the issue is not your ticket but really your DLC data (bad install, corrupted download), in that case you should verify your download, or your files on SD card:/install/ before installing it with WUP.

You didn't have to reinstall the DLC, but that's fine if you did.

if you installed the DLC first, you already had the DLC data on the console.
all you missed was the DLC ticket.

By reinstalling the DLC, you got a .tik file with 2 ticket inside (the language pack at the bottom, and the DLC at the top)
what you did was then swap the ticket order in that file to have the language at the top.

What I did is :
find the title.tik of the DLC (eshop helper, or ticket website)
open the xxxx/xxxxxxxx.tik (from tik2sd) in hex editor
open the DLC title.tik (the bad one) in the same hex editor
copy the full DLC title.tik data in memory (select all -> copy)
go to xxxx/xxxxxxxx.tik file in hexeditor, position your cursor at the end, and paste the memory you copied in that file to get 2 ticket in the same file.
save.

now you have the original "xxxx/xxxxxxxx.tik" from tik2sd with "language ticket" at the top and "DLC ticket" pasted next to it (at the bottom).
replace the old tik file on your cnosole with the new one you just made.

if you don't know how to use an hexeditor, then the easiest step is explained in the first post :
install language + DLC (in that order), use tik2sd, "fix" the ticket with the website (it's in fact not fixing, but swapping the order), replace the file.

Ah thats the part I needed to know. Well maybe that can help anyone else who runs into the same issue. And yea, I know how to use a hex editor lol

Thank you very very much! <3

Thanks for the tutorial, worked perfectly.

btw: You can save 822mb storage space when you install the first version of the dlc v16 (the season pass) without the language pack.

For some reason my ftp only shows the sd card. how to access internal storage though it?

Cyan · Jul 11, 2017

You need to use a custom firmware which can give access to the internal file system (Mocha, or CBHC)
AND
You need to use "ftpiiU_everywhere".

FTPiiU alone is not enough. it doesn't let you browse "everywhere" in your console.
FTPiiU_everywhere exists in different version, the first one works only with Mocha, while the 2 latest version work with CBHC too.

of course, you also need to use the correct Mocha or CBHC version. If you still have old ones without support of that feature, ftpiiU_everywhere will not display the other paths.

to resume : UPDATE your tools.

SRKTiberious · Jul 12, 2017

Ugh... this is getting absolutely stupid. Homebrew App Store doesn't hardly ever want to download files to the SD card, Mocha ran once, and no way to get back to HBL afterwards, and I've spent a few hours trying to get this stuff actually working. Anyone got some clearer instructions?

Edit: I can get Mocha to run, but I can't seem to be able to get Homebrew Launcher to run via a website exploit a second time. It just crashes and makes me force-poweroff.

I did everything and IT WORKED DAMN BOI nice guide. (i got a little lost on the hex edit part)
Btw, so if i did everything right i should get the next dlc too when it comes out right?

I was using ftpiiu. it worked, thanks a lot

SRKTiberious · Jul 13, 2017

I finally, after about 6 hours of bashing my head against the wall, got it to run, and once everything went, it worked fine. I'm getting DLC items without any CFW running. I got nervous when I saw the installing notification after swapping the tickets, but I still got the EX quest notifications.

Dan-the-Rebirth · Jul 16, 2017

what happens if i uninstall my dlc and try to play the game?

arquillos · Jul 16, 2017

Thank you raphamotta!
Everything is working fine!!!! Thank you very much.

Tried on a Euro USB installed BOTW.
Now on the main screen it shows v1.3.0 DLC v2.0 and the additional content is available.

I made a mistake downloading the FTP app and downloaded FTPiiU
instead of FTPiiU_Everywhere

...so I did not could see the internal Wii U memory (only the SD content).

Just a heads up, you can get the new DLC for free without doing te ticket modificatipn again if you had it setup already before.

I had the Treasure Chest DLC working, and once the DLC Pass 1 got out, I got into the game, the notice about entering eShop to get it popped up, got into eShop, exited eShop to go back to the game, then closed the game back to Home menu.

By now, the Download manager was downloading the newest DLC.
Once it finished, I opened up BotW, and it began installing the new DLC
Once in game, the new DLC prompt appeared. It worked without having to redo the ticket editing.

This might be the case for the Holiday DLC as well.

PS: I use HBL Haxchi, I don't use CBHC nor any CFW in my system.

has this trick been blocked on 5.5.2 as the update added something on AOC overlay
