This is what i downloaded and it worked, can you try this one ? but i had to change delta to 0x03...
Thanks for the zip!
I found out I downloaded the AMD64 Python version which was giving me the Directory issue. Once I used the regular x86 Python version self hosting ran fine. Using your zip I was able to launch the Homebrew Channel on the first try!
Thanks again.
Self Host people! That is the trick!!

ok.. well there is good news and bad news.. the good news is that you can get self hosting working!! -the bad news is that for some reason it looks like Delta 0x02 doesn't work for you (which is the stock one in the file)...

SO... open up your folder (WiiUTest-master) or whatever you called it (on your Desktop) - go to the 'payload' folder and then open the 'exploit.html' file in a text editor.. you'll see a line of code (about 4 lines down):

var delta = 0x02000000; //from 0x0 to 0x04000000 step by 0x01000000

change '2' in the 0x02000000 section above to change the delta i.e. changing this:

var delta = 0x02000000; //from 0x0 to 0x04000000 step by 0x01000000

to this:

var delta = 0x04000000; //from 0x0 to 0x04000000 step by 0x01000000

will change your Delta from 2 to 4.. cycle through each delta (saving the file each time) and repeating each of the manual steps in the instructions above and you should get it to work!

did you get it working??
Like a charm, the second I swapped to the older commit linked by Ouah it worked off the bat. Thank you both again!

this times 100!!!! - Mongoose 6.5 is probably the easiest way to go.. literally download and a couple of clicks and your done!

your welcome!!! - glad you got it sorted!!!... I had a similar experience to you and resolved it immediately (first time) when I self hosted... well actually second time (as I had to delete my save game data for Dr Kawashima!!! LOL!) - but 100% success rate accessing exploit when self hosting .. but 0% success rate trying through web hosting!

Try this:
which link is for the source files
1. Download the SOURCE files from the original post
2. Download Mongoose 6.5 from here: https://backend.cesanta.com/d.shtml?9DPNR5DTT1OX9RAD
3. Put the source files from the OP in a folder on your desktop
4. Extract Mongoose and put it in the SAME folder as step 3 above
5. Run MONGOOSE from the folder in STEP 3
6. It should launch a browser showing the INDEX.HTML of the payload on your PC
7. Go to your WiiU and ensure the DNS is set to AUTO ASSIGN
8. Launch the WIIU browser (delete save data) broswer will exit so launch it again (OPEN the curtains!!)
9. Go to address in WIIU browser as shown on your PC (type this EXACTLY including any HTTP and ports provided)
10. This will serve a white page with hyperlinks
11. Select EXPLOIT
12. With any luck about 5 seconds later you should see the WIIU logo in bottom right hand corner and it will launch HBL

let me know how you get on! ;)

I will try self hosting but which link is for the source files?

I tried selfhosting but i only get a "Verify.." pop up, what im doing wrong?

You're using a bad commit (WiiUTest-master folder); I did the same thing at first. Download either the version that SonGoku (page 43) or ligerzero (page 46) shared as both seem to be working.

Selfhosting is the way to go. Tried upwards of 50 times with http://u.drg.li and never even got the fade out before the console froze. Tried once selfhosted and succeeded.

JumpPopCall is testing and committing directly to master, so it looks like it might be broken at the moment. I'd recommend pulling/downloading this commit if you want to try selfhosting.

I have to wait until my mii falls asleep? or the exploit works immediately?

It is not immediate. Your Mii will likely fall asleep, but that's not what to look for. If your screen starts to fade into a whitish greyish color around the same time that it freezes, you're using the correct delta value. (0-4) If you try the same delta value several times and your screen never fades, try a new one. If you're using u.drg.li, click a new number. If you're self-hosting, open the exploit.html file inside the payload folder with Notepad++ or something and change the number in there.

The mii falling asleep just seems to be the timing of when the exploit either works or crashes.

Use that one for the selfhost if you're getting the verify popup it worked for me kudos to Ouah

If you use mongoose to selfhost, set your DNS to auto obtain and clear your browser save data on your wii u browser hosting that repo i sent you should give you a pretty high success rate (seems ilke its near 100% honestly.) Just keep at it

I tried using both Phyton 2 and Mangroose but in both file directories were no exploit files or hyperlinks (I couldnt find anything spelling exploit in the long lists)
I extracted the content of the Master ZIP into both the python folder on C:// and for Mangroose on the Desktop
How am i supposed to launch the exploit?

Thanks for the help boys!

As for me, when I launch Mongoose, I get a tab on my PC browser that has only an IP as address, and the WiiU browser doesn't open it, instead, it redirects me to a Google search.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
