Hacking Can I install games without eshop releases on nand ?

Yan3 · May 11, 2020

I am installing a few games on my wii u because I just received a 2TB drive but can i install games that never had an eshop release on the wii u ?

i tryed to use wud2app with the dump of my game (007 legends) and got the .app files and .h3 files but wup installer just stops at 7%
is there a way to install it to the nand ?

Yes, but you need to be running CFW AFAIK.

What is CFW AFAIK and how do I run it ?

UPDATE : I was just too dumb to understand that “AFAIK” meant “as far as I know”. I thought it was some kind of specific CFW, or something. :rofl2:

Wud2app dumps the signed ticket straight from the disc. No cfw is needed to install or play disc dumps. It's the other way around which requires cfw. Eshop releases which do not have a physical disc copy will require cfw since there is no disc to dump the signed ticket from.

It's not the ticket that's the issue. I'm pretty sure the conversion process breaks the signature.

Are you zure your dump is good? (sounds sooo wrong!! :rofl2:

)

If your only getting 7% on hdd, you'll probably get the same installing to nand. The location shouldn't make a difference.

Dump should be good and it doesn’t matter where I install the game

No conversion is needed, there's no media type that gets in the way like on 3DS so indeed every original WiiU BD also happens to contain a signed digital game

(When this so-called brazilian exploit was discovered, a manual edit was needed - to fix bad dumps! still no cfw needed)

I really don't think so. I don't think anything is converted. Just extracting the still encrypted and signed files from the disc image

CFW=Custom FirmWare
AFAIK=As far as i know. What he tried to say is that you need a custom firmware. Like haxchi or haxchi with coldboot option. But this requires a compatible ds vc game.

i know what is a cfw and i have haxchi installed and i tryed to install the game after launching mocka but it still freezes for some reason
I just didnt understand "AFAIK" but this brings me back to the beginning, why does it keep freezing ?

Is your sd card correctly formatted?

I found the problem wud2app didnt extract everything, thats why it stopped in the middle.
extracted the files again and installation finished without problem.
