Behold, le first custom BFSTM out for public viewing!

https://www.dropbox.com/s/iqi56wfeu8uwohk/kirby.bfstm?dl=0

Of course, there isn't really much use for this until TCPGecko is compatible with recent Wii U firmware, though you can still listen to it by downloading VGMStream, which you can get the BFSTM version here:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/b1un7t47km90p8t/BFSTMvgstreamzip.zip?dl=0

(Also, I'll actually be taking requests for awhile. Probably up until I get the tutorial up and going.
Now, since the BFSTM format is all figured out, I can move on to a different music format. .nus3bank. (Which is the format used for Smash Bros. Wii U & 3DS)
It appears that the .nus3bank is an archive containing the actual music format, which is IDSP, and to me, it looks quite familiar to other formats so this shouldn't be too hard to figure out. :P
Can you make a BFSTM of the Super mario 3d Land Snow theme and the main Clock tower theme

People need to be appreciative of the efforts put forth by nwplayer123, mn1, hykem, et al. A few years ago nobody showed interest publicly. In contrast, now there is not only interest but we receive frequent updates. These guys in public have only interacted with respect toward others. Thanks guys.

well, I'm hesitating upgrading my Wii U console, I'm currently in 5.1.0 but I've got lot of games waiting for unboxing, such as Super smash bro ...
Is it sure that the future exploits will work in 5.3.2 ?
what about the internet exploit ?

Good question, has there been any update from Hykem regarding the 5.3.2 exploit?

This was his recent quote:
As you can see, Nintendo only updated the WebKit base version on firmware 4.0.0. Fail0verflow's presentation confirms this when you take into account that it took place December 2013 and comex mentions Nintendo having updated WebKit a few months ago (that update was 4.0.0 on October 2013).​
Anyway, as expected, the bug still doesn't work on firmware 3.0.1 and it only works on firmware 4.0.0 and higher. To the end user, this is yet another reason to update to 5.3.2 as soon as possible.​
To me, this means I won't be able to test the bug on my own unit without updating to 4.0.0, so I will leave it at 3.0.1 and port the use-after-free bug instead. This way I can still use it for the IOSU exploit and to dump the keys.​

Okay, lots of questions
I'll make something relevant: Marionumber1, is the kernel exploit currently finished (or close to) and just waiting a month and a half to be released, or is there still significant work to be done with it?

For one thing, it's really messy and still messed up on 4.1.0, so first Hykem needs to get the new Webkit exploit done so we can focus on 5.3.2, and even then timing and stuff is still really inconsistent. It's that far out because most of us have other things to do besides this.

But hykem should have the IOSU exploit ready by e3, no?

Most likely not, he might be partway to making one, but judging how much the Webkit exploit's been worked on in the past few weeks...
He's managed to somewhat control the address we're using, but we need to get that working and then get a ROP chain built.

No offense and no hard feelings but havent you been talking about the exact same thing for the past...year now?
I mean, I could swear you were talking that you need to build a ROP chain last christmas.
Again, I dont want to offend, just wondering how come this process took so much of your time.

They're students, so bear with them. Work on breaks usually speeds up, but they do have some tough stuff to deal with at school as it is. I mean, they could correct me if I'm wrong, but they are a young bunch, albeit very bright bunch as well :)
