Glad crediar delivered on this part of his tweet as well (said he might update it when I inquired about nintendont going open source).

Says right in the link it's an update with a fix for Wii U. I think he said on his Twitter that it was experimental. Pay attention to the warning as well:

When using SNEEK on Wii U you need a vWii-NAND and use a vWii IOS when building
the kernel.bin!

Checked Twitter. I thought he would not release it. I wonder if it will help Maxternal/others. I commented more out of shock. I stopped following Crediar when he said he was done with the Wii U. I've always liked him. Especially over certain "other devs."

This should be a breeze to compile, granted you have a vWii NAND backup (hint: DumpMii NAND) and (probably?) the ES and DI modules of vIOS80.

I have a vWii NAND backup from the Wii U of a friend of mine, but sadly he's on vacations, so there's no way I can test the compiled binaries. But I'm willing to help anyone who wants to compile it.

Probably. If the content IDs remain unchanged, it should be 0xe. Otherwise, you have to use a hex editor to know which content contains the ES module.

In that case, just grab the appropiate content and rename it to 0000000e.app. :)

I managed to compile them, the DI part perhaps requiring more work (assuming I did everything properly). Even when I used SNEEK without DI, I could not play disc-based game from the disc channel (I need to use WiiLauncher application to do that).

And I used file 0000000d.app taken directly from IOS 80 of WiiMode or VWii NAND dump for the base in compiling SNEEK.

Here is the video in case you want to see.
