A new dev on the scene! Cool!
Maybe @Marionumber1 or @NWPlayer123 can answer.

 

[Masterwin]

Please could you stop writing nonsense, or questions that are not necessary and leave this thread for what has been created. THX!!!

Well this is going to be completely impromptu just like most other things I do, but...
I'd like it if this thread was kept clean, it's fine if it's only posted in every other day as long as all posts are adding new info
TODO: Loading IOSU and/or cafe2wii into IDA and more details about them cause I'm running out of steam

 

[davetheshrew]

anyone actually developing make sure to block updates tomorrow or you may find yourself stuck.

@NWPlayer123 mentioned this on her twitter but on nintys website it says Wii u maintenance 7th april

 

[KillzXGaming]

though it happens so late, for other people it may be 7th.

"For information about Pokemon Global Link maintenance Please Click"

pokken update fixing mewtwo exploit hopefully tomorrow, along with whatever else ninty are doing.

pokken update fixing mewtwo exploit hopefully tomorrow, along with whatever else ninty are doing.

It's very probable. I wonder what will be new in the upcoming update (if there is one) other than the leaked heart thing from the sdk.

Also, are developers with access to the private exploit going to update just to see if it still work? The more firmwares it support the better for us.

Also good luck for the people working on this thread, your work is really appreciated

Hi, I am following this guide for a 5.5 kernel exploit, however when I load IDA, the functions you listed are not in my list. This is things such as tables.

Yes because you need to add them manually, you didn't think they would hand it to you on a silver platter did you? Press G to bring up a jump to address and then paste in what it says, right clicking that line before the .byte or w/e should let you do a rename

Ok, sorry. I didn't know.

And again.
Devs, if you are there.

He put a lot of data about IOSU (Architecture, Kernel), Ancast image etc. on 4 April, really nobody sees or all closed their eyes?

"The quick brown fox jumps over 13 lazy dogs" ..Not sure what relevance it has yet.

The quote is commonly used in writing because it utilizes every letter in the alphabet. On wikapedia I found this info on the saying.

"""In the age of computers, this pangram is commonly used to display font samples and for testing computer keyboards. In cryptography, it is commonly used as a test vector for hash and encryption algorithms to verify their implementation, as well as to ensure alphabetic character set compatibility. Microsoft Word has a command to auto-type the sentence, in versions up to Word 2003, using the command =rand(), and in Microsoft Office Word 2007 and later using the command =rand.old().[10]"""

I didn't mean it. Look at the recent changes for April 4 here

Like I revealed earlier. That text is found in the system font files without the 13.

 

[ryuutseku85]

I tthink we have to create a new segment for 0x0 to 0x16000

There is a lot of branch how ask for it

 

[FaTaL_ErRoR]

• Segment 0: CafeOs kernel data (not directly accessible by a user program)
• Segment 1: Application text (executable code)
• Segment 2: Thread stacks and native heap (the area controlled with malloc/free)
• Segments 3-C and E: Memory mapped regions (including files) and shared memory
• Segment D: Shared library text (executable code)
• Segment F: Shared library data
