I Have, i have been watching this thread since like page 3, but no one on this thread who is like an official Dev confirmed it, unless i missed something, all i am asking is if you have proof from an official dev who as background,

sorry man i do not have any proof .. but i believe in the dev. / devs.

let us be abit patient supposedly before february .. then you and i and everyone else will most likely be able to use loadiine and even more.

No worries, i have been looking all over if loadline would support online with the new IOSU hack, but no luck, yeah once we get Xenoblade X it i am going to spend all day just gawking at it

i you and most others would probably need online gaming especially those with games like SSB/MK8 etc.

i mostly play SSB online all the time, so it would be nice if we get online play with the exploit running would be nice.

maybe using certain 'spoofers' would allow us to play our games online. hopefully

Yeah, i really do want online gaming, yeah maybe loadline could spoof the game we are playing and make the console we are playing that game(witch we really are) and then be able to connect to it's online server

My understanding based on things said by sony usa and others is that we should be able to get a fully working emunand and that unlike the n3ds it should be able to be updated consistently with no issues (similar to o3ds).
although once again this is all a wait and see type of deal.

 

[henn64]

Ok its January now and no update from hykem. I'm calling bullshit and fake. Who's with me???

Silly time zones

Spoiler

And Sir, I suggest you either get your eyes checked or run through your 1st grade English classes if you think

released and maintained before February (yes, I'm sure of that).

is spelled "J-A-N-U-A-R-Y."
Or could it be that you just have a bad memory?

Here, have a late Christmas present.

It will launch soon™. In all seriousness Hykem said it would launch around Christmastime a couple weeks ago, but he's still working on it and its his project and he will finish it when he wants to. It could be tomorrow. It could be never. But if it's real it will probably be out sometime January.

Not only that, but he found something else that may help out in the long run.

So, I've got good news and bad news.
The bad news is that I'm going to postpone the release again. I said this week would be a more realistic release date, but I never confirmed it would happen then. Still, it's not a huge delay and it's definitely not to wait for a new firmware update.
Like I stated before, I have the entire month of January free just to work on this and the exploit will be released and maintained before February (yes, I'm sure of that).
Now the good news, which should explain the additional delay. I need some time to pursue something I found in the MCP module. If I'm correct about this, we should be able to get a boot-time exploit. The reason for that is that the MCP module is responsible for launching "master" titles (like the PPC kernel, for example) and I found a bug that, if it turns out to be exploitable, should allow to hijack execution while MCP is still preparing to launch stuff. This means, early IOSU access and a direct boot into an exploitable environment. Not to mention that MCP is the IOSU user module with most privileges (next to BSP that is) and having access to it alone is more than enough to own the IOSU kernel at any given time.
I believe it's important to look into this because if it works, no one will have to worry about possibly bricking consoles by installing custom titles (homebrew channel, for example) and then attempting to launch them before triggering the exploit again after a fresh boot.

With that said, if this turns out to be nothing, I'll release the exploit right away.

 

[canariobr]

if the wait is to avoid bricks, I think it is valid. im tryin to keep hype down. I bought wii u specially for iosu exploit. wont update until iosu is out, so therefore I still cant play
