Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

You're not supposed to directly build the framework. You build a project, and it will build the framework in the process.



If we use the kernel exploit, we can inject code into Smash that uses the SD card.

But to make the html file for the exploit you need to build generate_html.py though right? because of the socket.h thing?

As the README says, you do:

python build.py <project path>

from the libwiiu root directory.

same thing when I try that.

Is powerpc-eabi-gcc.exe in your PATH, and did you restart the shell after adding it?

 

[plutoo]

So, how would I go about porting this to 5.1.1? Thanks.

 

[TheZander]

Is powerpc-eabi-gcc.exe in your PATH, and did you restart the shell after adding it?

yes, I put that exe all over the place, But I also added the path in environmental variables, same way when I had to add adb for android stuff. But I also put it in system32 and windows a long with every subfolder in libwiiu. I restarted as well.

It's weird because it worked on my home computer. And it doesn't say command not found anymore.

You don't need to put powerpc-eabi-gcc.exe in every directory, that's exactly what PATH is meant to avoid.

well yeah, I just did it to be sure. do you think it's screwing it over? I'll try fresh.

 

[abdezca]

For God's sake, stop asking for back loaders and if your 5.4.0. works or not (BTW Thats my FW). This is just a tiny access to the system. From there it will grow into bigger things.

 

[motezazer]

The only real advantage I could even think of for option 3 would be to have a bare-metal Nintendont-esque app to run Wii games or something, without the "overhead" of Café OS running (is it even that resource intensive in the first place?) in the background.

Café OS isn't running in the backgroud when you are in vWii mode.

 

[daxtsu]

I never said it did. I said an app LIKE Nintendont (hence -esque). Café runs while Wii U-mode applications do.

But... I don't see the point.
vWii do that really well! Why replace it?

It was just an example. vWii works pretty well for the most part, but it'd be nice if it supported Wii U Pro Controllers natively, for example.

On another note, Python 3's built in simple web server (e.g. python -m http.server) makes testing these hello worlds and such quite easy. No need to install a huge web server pack just for this stuff.

 

[zecoxao]

So no one, and I mean no one has any information on all regarding the safety of 5.4.0.?

not safe repeated 1 million times

This was answered way before you quoted me lol.

 

[TheZander]

This was answered way before you quoted me lol.

also way before you asked

 

[Seelbreaker]

Great Achievement there! Now i can hope that in the near Future it may be possible to use a Router as an Range Extender for the wifi connection between the Gamepad and the WiiU

 

[zecoxao]

This was answered way before you quoted me lol.

well, you questioned it several times

 

[the_randomizer]

also way before you asked

*Sigh* why do I bother....

 

[Deleted User]

I'm unfortunately on version 5.4.0 U currently :L Does this mean I am unable to do this? Also, I saw you could get 5.3.2 with Mario Party 10 or Splatoon discs but the question is, would it let me downgrade?? Doubt it..
