Homebrew Official ftpiiu

[Cyan]

ftpiiu is not incorporated, you still need to launch ftpiiu homebrew to get a server on your console.
What's incorporated is a new way to manage the files using IOSUhax node, these nodes are used by "ftpiiu everywhere" (not by the normal version).

when you see a custom firmware description with "compatible with ftpiiu" it means it works with the "everywhere" version, allowing access to more than just the SD device (NAND mlc, slc, SD FAT32, USB FAT32).

so you need a CFW with nodes access (Mocha or Dimok's fw.img), and ftpiiu everywhere.
Alternatively, there's now CBHC which is also compatible with the latest ftpiiu everywhere. (update ftpiiu everywhere if you still have an old version not working with CBHC1.2+)

Can I just ask where does one obtain FtpiiU everywhere version. All I found are some german and spanish sites....

ftpiiu_everywhere for CBHC only

ftpiiu_everywhere for normal haxchi

I last tested with dimoks fw.img but I switched to mocha cfw but I don't think that makes much of a difference considering ftpiiu everywhere just depends on libiosuhax, EUR, standard window 10 file explorer

Thanks. Using explorer under dimok's fw.img, I got 1.4MB/s, which got me looking at the WiiU side. Writing to NAND, I get 1.4MB/s, but writing to either my wiiu format hard drive or wiiu format thumb drive, I only get 200KB/s. hmmm.

You will still be limited by the console's wifi speed cap.

That's what is confusing me. KevinX8 would have to get 10.24MB/s to do 3GB in 5 minutes, and xtheman166 is looking at at least 6MB/s. Those numbers are just way beyond what I thought the limits were. 10 megabits sure, but not bytes.

I was sort of exaggerative with my numbers, more like 7-10 minutes but it also depends on the files your moving, lots of really small files are hated by sdcards and ftp alike but a few big files let it max out its upload/download speed

I understand that you were making a point. It just prompted me to revisit using ftp. I also used large files (125MB each to test.) At my speed, 3GB of only large files would take at least 37 minutes. Basically, the speed limitations make direct manipulation of titles and installs via ftp too inefficient to bother with in many cases, which leaves sneakernet as the data transport, with wupserver as the data director if one wants to drive things from the PC side.

there's a link on the first post.
it's the same exact link for both normal and "everywhere" version.
Edit: I was wrong. last time I checks, I was on Fix94 git so I thought it was the same link, but it's not merged with Dimok's git yet.

here is the link https://github.com/FIX94/ftpiiu/releases


The "everywhere" is (should be) working on everything with either IOSUHax node hook or MCP hook, not just CBHC.
it's not a "CBHC version only".

 

[fatsquirrel]

OK I finally got around to try the everywhere version. And after I tried ftping some files with filezilla to the wiiu every single file fails.
I tried this several times and its not working.
I started FW image and then ran everywhere version...thats how you are supposed to do it right?

Edit: FTPiiU works normal without problems

Hey @Cyan, do you know if you can use ftpiiu_everywhere to move save files from one NNID to another? Want to move all my kids saves from my NNID to his NNID (created new). Would be a lot quicker/easier than using saviine. Thought you might know as you know most things WiiU

yes yes you can, it would be under mlc for your NAND games and usb for your usb games just place the saves into their respective directories and your set

 

[Cyan]

it should work yes.
the savegames are not tied to an account, so it's fine.

I haven't mess with my NAND yet , so I don't know the path to the savegames.
if it's one savegame stored "per game", you'll have to do it multiple times, for each game.
if all savegames are in the same folder (one user ID folder with all savegame inside) it could be fast to do, just rename the UserID folder?

But I don't know how safe it is to do that.
I would recommend to backup all your savegame to your PC first, then upload them back to your new profile.
don't move them directly from NAND to NAND using FTP's fxp command. (WUP server can do that, w.cp(source, target))

Bloody awesome, thanks!

okey dokey. Read and understood. Now, how to get my kid off the damn console....

storage_(type here)/usr/save/00050000/ this is the directory for game saves just copy and paste the contents of this folder between your accounts
if you have saves on the account your copying to you want to keep make sure to look up the title id for that game and not replace its save

Cheers dude!

EDIT: looked further and seems you will have to do it title by title, you can access all users saves from ftpiiu everywhere so that saves you some time but you will have copy and rename the save folders no easy way out of it like so:
storage_(type here)/usr/save/00050000/titleid/8000000X/ to
storage_(type here)/usr/save/00050000/titleid/8000000Y/
X= original accounts place in user select screen eg.2nd from the left would be 2
Y= destination users place

Yep. Thanks for looking into it for me. I'll copy all mine to PC using ftpii (that way I have a backup too), then change the user id and upload again. Does ftpii also copy folder permissions correctly? Or would I have to set them all to 0x644 manually do you know?

no need to copy over to pc, will add some extra 30 minutes of waiting for nothing, copy straight from the directory and just rename.If you copy straight from directory yes it should preserve them but unless you are using a linux based OS on your pc the permissions will disappear from the downloaded files

Got it. Sounds like a plan. One at a time. Better safe than sorry I'll test the first one I do then just go for it, lol. Not that many to do anyway. Thanks again.
