Hacking do I even need rednand?

Thoughts: this ought to allow out-of-region titles, too.
Going to test

You can bypass the region check just by changing the region in the title's meta/meta.xml using iosuhax. No hack needed after you do that.

That's... Pretty clever.

Any more info you can give about this? I've changed a EUR title region from 00000004 to 00000002 (USA?) and it still complains about being the wrong region for my console. I even changed the region for the update file as I imagine that has to be altered too and it's not working

Edit: Nevermind, I just needed to reboot

Just tested N64 VC games and Mario Kart DLC all from Wii U USB Helper. Everything worked right, i didn't even had the issue that everybody said about Mario Kart 8, all of the DLC cups were unlocked i played all of them. Next i will test Eshop games and DS games.

Will there be a guide?

Looks like a no to me, :c I've asked everybody LOL

I guess that's to be expected, I guess @wolf-snake doesn't want to make one maybe?

It is really not difficult
You need FIX94's compiled fw.img which you can't share here, and you boot into it with cfwbooter
Then you use wupinstaller just like you do for the "BR" exploit

Yes, you need to give it a reason to be re-read. Changing to another user seemed to do it as well. I started adding (EUR) to the end of my changed titles' names so I knew which ones I had modified. That also helped in easily identifying whether I had activated the change.

Next someone needs to attempt to install homebrew packed with NUSPacker this way.

Anyone have the guts to do so?

 

[Kohmei]

Be sure to install to USB if you try it..

 

[huma_dawii]

Has anyone tried to install Xenoblade Chronicles Wii with this?

I really don't see any meaning in this, we still need hbl to launcher cfwbooter, why not just run homebrew there?

and coldboothax is risky without hardmod(if possible)

Can confirm Wii Sports Club and Smash 4 DLC install fine like this

Also wupserver's title_install function isn't even necessary. Wupinstaller installs DLC and eShop content just fine after iosuhax has been run

so we can now install wii sports club and DLC to USB device? but they won't be usable just as is after reboot? how come the normal USB installs work fine directly after reboot

"Normal" USB installs that were made with a disc ticket, were made with a disc ticket. The disc tickets are so-called "legit" tickets because they have legitimate signatures that pass IOSU's protection

FunkiiU's fake ticktets for DLC and eShop only use the title key to create a ticket that's the right format, but it's missing the signature. It can only be played with signature checks patched out, which is what iosuhax does. So you need to run iosuhax to patch out sig checks

Right now this needs to be done manually, but eventually coldboothax will make the process automatic, and you'll never have to think about it again

great! gonna wait then! getting legit tickets for DLC is not possible?

I might be talking out my ass here, but I believe the ticket's signature is different for everyone's console. Therefore, the only legitimate ticket would be the one created on your console when you purchased the content, be it a full game or DLC, from the eShop.

 

[Scoop111]

Since everybody is talking about sigPatches, isn't it possible to patch the WiiU's update-checks as well? I haven't used online-play yet but like to try finding some Mario Maker Levels. I selfhosted HBL from the beginning...

the main point of brazilian methods is: disc tickets are universal
