What's the "future project" that he's hinting at? What could be achieved with this?

My best guess would be some sort of software similar to SNEEK on the original Wii, which let you keep raw NAND files on the SD card or a USB drive instead of using a redNAND. This way no space is actually lost and you can easily tinker with files, or easily back them up.

So does this only dump your SLC and MLC for now, or will it also load the dump from your SD if one is present?

Should he be distributing a fw.img? Don't they contain copyrighted Nintendo code?

On twitter there are no rules.

...but here there are. So most likely some mod will remove the link to the rar, and possibly the twitter post. And leave a not-so-sly message about checking a certain someone's twitter for the link

That's what I've been waiting for so long!
Dumping Wii U's NAND into a folder on USB so all games are "installed" there. So the HDD is still FAT32 and can be used for vWii as well! :)

transfer all your internal storage games to usb or delete them before you use the tool if you don't want them to be backed up too

I also think this is for a wiiu version of SNEEK. He did hint at it a long long time ago asking for name suggestion. Maybe that's what his tweets over the past week or so are clues for...

I confirm, remove the nand games before doing the process, I'm copying mk8 and dlc right now from the nand with this process

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
