Hacking [release] Wii U ticket modifier

[AboodXD]

V1.1 has just been released!!

Changelog:

• Saves the modified ticket as a new file instead of replacing the old file.
• Included an EXE version for Windows 64-bit.

The usage has been updated.

Which value did you use?
If you tried 1, try 0 with the original (not modified) tik.

If that didn't work, send me the original (not modified) tik.

Seems the files was corrupt but now its work.

 

[AboodXD]

Oh, well then. I'm happy that it works.

I wonder if new super luigi u dlc will work with the same ticket? Because theorically everything is the same in the game.. but now i can't try yet. (working hours)

 

[AboodXD]

I don't think so, they don't have the same files count, so the ticket will fail.

@AboodXD have you or anyone else compared EUR tik to USA tik to figure out how to mod one to another regions? Example: alter the header of EUR tik to match that of USA tik then change +/-2 and try boot? This might help people without their region tiks?

 

[AboodXD]

I don't think it's possible.

V1.2 has just been released!!

Changelog:

• Fixed a bug where importing a lib fails.
• Now calculates the right value for byte 0x0F!

Special thanks to @asper!

Download!

The title is completely different between regions, with completely different cryptographic keys and ticket data is no good. The game data is same, this is when we handle loadiine stuff which is raw data and executables and whatnot. Since we are going around the security by working under different title and limited accessibility (Namely; SD card only) - it all works out even for region free and whatever.

But here we have to give one very solid point of FACT:
Different title, means different keys. Ticket is basically the needed crypto info to install the title. Different region has different title and 100% different key, completely.

No we cannot bruteforce RSA-2048 - that would be magical. Why not also give me some Sega Ringwide HDD rips when you are done those need only RSA-512 bruteforced.

Haha thanks for the info, I (wrongly) assumed the tik was a simple string or binary with headers, my bad.

I will keep my thoughts to myself

I've been away for the last 40 or so pages in the main forum thread for this, but how does it know how to change the last digit (-2 or +2)? What progress was made until you figured it out, because it seemed very random before.

 

[AboodXD]

value of byte 0x0F XOR 2.
For example, NSMBU USA:
0x0E XOR 2 = 0x0C.

 

[Cyanopsis]

value of byte 0x0F XOR 2.
For example, NSMBU USA:
0x0E XOR 2 = 0x0C.

umm sorry wot?

 

[ManuToledo]

Now calculates the right value for byte 0x0F!

A winner is you. Thanks!!!

 

[AboodXD]

umm sorry wot?

Bitwise exclusive OR.

If you don't know what that is, use this tool.

Hi @AboodXD ,
pretty neat tool, thank you a lot.
Is it possible to modifie it so that you acept more parameters (or to be more precise, files) when dragged and dropped?
Would be awesome to e.g. drag all my 5 tik files and let your tool generate 5 tik_modifieds
If not, okay, if yes, would be awesome
Thanks in advance

 

[AboodXD]

@Sno0t do the following:

1. Right-click on any tik file, choose "Open with...", choose Ticket Modifier.
2. Select all your tik files (15 files at a time), hit enter!
3. ??
4. Profit.

Errrmahhgerd Am i stupid...could have figured this out xD
Thank you
