Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

[Marionumber1]

It isn't managed by IOSU.It's managed by nn_acp!

Isn't that just the NN account protection? Why would it deal with title tickets?

No ,I think it manage saves and I think I found my mistake it is the nintendo network time.

 

[Marionumber1]

No ,I think it manage saves.

Save data still isn't related to tickets, which do control whether you have access to the game or not. marcan specifically said that Wii IOS had a facility in place for invalidating tickets after a certain amount of time or number of uses, something that's useful for demos. I would expect IOSU to be similar enough.

So this means only IOSU exploit can give us that possibility. How about gave saves? is it same thing ? if I want to have things unlocked in my game, do we need IOSU exploit for that too ?

Cafe OS control is enough to let us edit game saves, since we can hook the save file API.

Yes you put an ps4 in a wii in a xbox one in a Wii U
Its EASY

Yes, totally that!

But you really brought up a question in my head!
Did someone already achieve to decrypt some stuff of the other two current gen consoles?

Marcan also said that nintendo havent used that feature

Which feature do you mean?

so it means we will need the kernel exploit for that.
If I'm not wrong I think you are keeping the kernel exploit until it gets patched by N ? which I think it's good anyway, it might make the homebrew development slow but it'll give us users possibility to use it on higher firmwares.

 

[Kinnay]

MrRean, I saw that kinnay has updated his sm3d world editor, would it be possible for you to try rotating some object or resizing them and checking if it works with caffine ?

That's what we're trying, but so far the game either loaded the original level without changes or it crashed.

At the time, but that was all the way back in 2008.

so it means we will need the kernel exploit for that.

Yeah, it does require the kernel exploit. That being said, most homebrew can be done in userspace, without the kernel exploit. What's really needed is documenting the graphics and audio APIs for Cafe OS, and that sadly hasn't been done enough.

For anyone not following libwiiu Hyken has just updated it to support 2.0.0, 2.1.x and 3.1.0.

 

[zecoxao]

updated, should have support for 2.x
https://github.com/wiiudev/libwiiu

 

[Hykem]

Added support for firmware versions 2.0.0, 2.1.x and 3.1.0 to libwiiu: https://github.com/wiiudev/libwiiu
All firmware versions since the implementation of the Internet Browser up to 5.1.0 and 5.3.2 (separately) are now supported.

How can I contribute ideas/code changes to libwiiu?
Does someone have to "invite" me or something like that?
I didn't use Github that much...

 

[nastys]

EDIT: nvm

Fork the repository so you have your own copy, make changes in your repo, and submit a pull request to us.

Okay thanks!
I'll try!

Edit:
Done!

Edit 2:
I got really confused, but this is it now, right @Marionumber1 ?

About a year ago the Wii U bootrom was dumped online, some drama ensued, etc...

What's missing for it to be possible for a Wii U to boot into its exploited state and not have to execute the browser exploit every time? Prolly been asked before but I can't find it

Not yet, that will require a level of IOSU exploitation that hasn't been reached.
