Hacking Firmware 5.5.0

I did format in WBFS. I also tried to use in FAT32 but I don't know if I'm doing right. Is the ISO game have to be on the Flash Drive root?

On fat32 or ntfs, make a folder in the root of the drive named wbfs. Convert Wii ISOs to wbfs. put wbfs files in wbfs folder.

Try to put inside a folder named wbfs

That's why. It needs to be in a folder called "wbfs", then "(gamename [gameid])", then the wbfs/iso. I thought WBFS manager did this automatically?

It should if the drive was selected properly. That's what my brother uses. I thought that folder structure was for nintendont, though. my drive just has wbfs files in the wbfs folder and works fine. isos take more space unless you scrub them (even then they might, its been a while since i scrubbed one)

It's for both, if I remember correctly. Either that or the middle folder can be used to actually remember which game every ISO/WBFS is. Either way I'd recommend doing it that way

I guess. I don't use the folders to manage my games though. That's what WBFS Manager is for. *shrug* each their own. I know USB://WBFS/{game}.wbfs works perfectly fine though.

It does, you must have been using it wrong.

all you need to do is load the drive you wish to use on the top left, let it format in WBFS then on the bottom right select your game to add.

I haven't been really paying attention to the Wii U hacking scene, but from the sounds of it, I'm guessing the access point in 5.3.2 was patched and I'm guessing the next thing you'll to wait for is an exploitable game, but I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about.

I don't personally use it, I just manually name my folders or rip them in USBLGX. It's the OP that seems to be having issues

Make sure your USB is plugged into the top USB port on the back of the Wii U. Don't plug it in until you're in Wii mode. If your drive isn't externally powered you may need a USB Y-adapter to draw additional power from another USB port (the Wii U's USB ports don't put out much power).
