yeah, just to reconfirm...
opening a command prompt in the titledumper folder. entering...
"titledumper.exe WiiU_dump_path base_output_path"
which brings up...
"Title Dumper by Dimok
Waiting for WiiU connection...<press Ctrl+C to stop>"
then i launch DDD on the wii u, punch in my IP, and launch the game either with A or by selecting it on the wiiu menu. as soon as it does, the command prompt gives me...
"Client 0 connected
Create Path: base_output_pathWiiU_dump_path
Client 0 connection closed"
when it does that, it creates the folder named "base_output_pathWiiU_dump_path" in the titledumper folder. and then the wii u boots the game to its main menu.
any glaring errors sticking out at you? did i get a space or underscore wrong, or something? with my limited knowledge it seems like its connecting. its just not getting the command to actually do a transfer. its creating the destination, but without anything to put in it, it thinks the job is done...could there be an issue with DDD?
