try xampp. place the exploit files in a folder inside xampp/htdocs. then, on the wii u, type your ip address followed by the folder name (ex. 192.168.1.100/wii u).

i first tried the public hosting sites and could never get it and it was slow when failing. so i configured to self host. i had much better results however it should be known that its still sort of buggy. i had to actively edit the exploit.html in the self hosted files after each fail. self hosting allows you to fail fast though, so i would recommend that way. either way make sure youre prepared to install hakchi as you wont want to go through this again.

And Jesus wept!!...

Maybe you can explain what was wrong with your setup or what was causing your problems to help others having same issues in future??
idk know what was wrong with my setup, i tried everything but nothing seemed to work, but gordreborn told me to use xampp and for some reason it worked. if anyone's having trouble try putting the exploit files and mongoose into a file inside of xampp named hdocs then load mongoose from there, that's how it worked for me.
Thanks to all the people on this board

To clarify - the folder should be named "htdocs".
EG: 'c:\xampp\htdocs\'

this literally makes no sense and there is no need to do this... clearly you were doing something VERY wrong or there is something unique with your setup.. given that no one else has had to do this and the steps posted previously seem to work for the vast majority/everyone....

well yes, in the previous hack i had to put the games on the sd card. haxchi allows usb hard discs?
I assume you used Loadiine. Once you get Haxchi set up I recommend getting an external HDD or even just a USB and use WUP Installer GX2. That allows you to install to either NAND or USB, and the games will basically be as you installed them from the eShop popping up on your homemenu. Keep in mind, if you want to run VC games or use DLC for games you'll want to set up at the very least Mocha FW and launch it from the Homebrew menu i believe. There are quicker ways to boot with coldboot and using HaxchiFW i think but I just have Haxchi boot my homebrew elf and launch Mocha FW from there.

It makes no sense to have HaxChi launch Mocha. HaxChi has it's own CFW. Just change the setting to default=sysmenu in HaxChi config and reinstall HaxChi. Now when you tap HaxChi you're in CFW. If you have HaxChi you don't need Mocha

  • 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

    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
