Homebrew [Release] SaveMii WUT Port - Wii U/vWii savefile manager

[Xpl0itU]

This is a port of SaveMii to WUT.

What does this mean?
It's basically faster than the original as it's using a modern toolchain for building it
Also, it comes as an rpx instead of an elf, so when Aroma comes out, compatibility won't be an issue anymore, you could also create a channel with it

Thanks for this I made a Forwarder Channel but it seems the Savemii RPX doesn't exit, I can bring up the WiiU Home Menu fine but when I try to exit it just stays on the WiiU Menu loading screen forever..

EDIT: I was sooo tempted to use the Smallville theme as a Boot Sound but ended up going with the default WiiU one LOL

Great contribution. Where should be the rpx placed?

A channel is not a forwarder! Other that that a channel needs proper ProcUI implentation (handling more states than a HBL homebrew + needing to tell CafeOS to not reload itself (as "itself" = HBL) but the Wii U menu after exit). Proper ProcUI implentation is one of the hardest things... IIRC even WUT examples do it wrong...

The Channel I made loads the apps rpx from a custom path on the sd card rather than the Code folder .. isnt that the definition of a forwarder?
It makes life easier, so instead of repacking/reinstalling the Channel everytime there's an update to the app you just update the rpx on the sd card
I understand ProcUI is hard to get right, I've been hoping for it to get fixed for RA for years

@ploggy I see. Sorry for the missunderstanding.

Could you also make it possible to save saves from Injection games as well?

When I run this tool, none of my games show as having been played before so I get the error that I need to start them first.

using tiramisu and mii maker HBL.

Any ideas what could cause this symptom?
