Hacking Wii U Hacking & Homebrew Discussion

make sure to take note of their name if you come across the hacker and check your recently played with users

At the risk of going Full Retard, Here's my question... Why do they soft lock, or even mess up the save? Do they not have the same data for the game? I mean, I know we can run unsigned code up to certain degrees, but I'm confused why their games freeze just by being in the same plaza. Is it cause of the spoofing? A combination? Feel free to PM the information. I'm honestly just curious why we wouldn't freeze using gecko or something, but they would when it should just load the data? :confused:

Like, for example, some GM Character (if their are any) wearing it?


Thinking more on it, it just sounds more like the hackers are freezing them than the items causing the issue. Like GTA V....

I'm no expert, but I would think it's because the game saves stats whenever you exit online and there is a location in memory where it isn't supposed to be, so the game gets "confused" and screws up writing the save

Always leave it up to a group of losers who will ruin the Wii U hacking scene and online for the rest of us. Nice going.

This is why we can't have nice things.

who did that? wasn't aware the time trial time offset was ever even found

Ryan did it.
Everything was discovered by @MrRean.

Ryan is not ip banned?

Hacker in splatoon -.- View attachment 26177

And this is exactly what gets Nintendo's attention to crack down on us homebrew people. Permanently damaging other players is no joke. Nice job once again, community.

 

[AboodXD]

Afaik apps and games in vWii will just run at >100% speed which'd lead to unplayable games!

Never heard of "Frame limit"? It would do the trick!

(and to fix the scaling in vWii! It doesn't adopt scaling options of CafeOS! )

Nobody answered my question, will we ever be able to play/upscale Wii games in/to 1080p? Even upscaling Nintendont will be awesome!

Not easy at all, the problem is Nintendont isn't an emulator, but a virtual machine.

Wouldn't appear that way, unfortunately

So, the Wii U hacking scene...what's gonna happen? It is time for us to panic? I'd so love to find out who the idiot responsible is.

More of an interpreter, really. It's kind of like WINE, if you want to think of it that way

Hopefully Nintendo will be responsible and just permaban him. They've certainly noticed him lol

I'm not sure how much Nintendo is able to monitor in matches, but theoretically they should be able to see who is using what ModelID (since they have to know whether a player is Male or Female based on that same ModelID). They already follow me and most other well known modders, and I'm being transparent, so I've probably gotten through to them about it. However, all it is is a simple Miiverse fix, the NPC objects in the Plaza don't work right with their ModelID, so it just crashes. You can purge it either by getting the internet to disconnect as it's loading or wait until Splatfest which will clean it automatically. If you wanna prevent it in the first place, go buy a $2 thumb drive and copy your save onto it from System Settings (have to copy the update data too as far as I can see, minor inconvenience).

 

[Dantarion]

There's no way for anyone to know that doing that would cause a softlock to others either.
While I think that going around with unreleased content and showing off online isn't really the best, I doubt the person that did this was aware that they were corrupting saves.

With Project M one of the big issues we had with adding characters was that whenever the game tried to append data into the save for these characters, it would wreck the save.
Even though the items exist in Splatoon, most likely the game has some areas that haven't been updated to account for the extra choices, causing the softlocks that people are experiencing.
It wouldn't happen to the person doing it and it wouldn't be obvious until it happens once and people trace it back to playing with the hacker.

Yeah, but that's passed now Hopefully he'll lay low for a while so the scene can actually advance without having jerks/noobs ruining it for us

if you are only watching this thread but still are interesting on accessing the eshop without having the latest system menu version then feel free to go here.

I wonder why they didn't just make a server-side patch for the Octoling crap. I mean, just check the model is one of the two possible ones, if so allows the player to get a connection token.

Because there is no heavy duty server, they make it as light as possible. Only handles matchmaking and serving news data. I tried to poke them to fix the custom weapon method I used forever ago, but they did an awful job. Only using it for fun in Squid Parties in Private from now on lmao, love speeding around the map with an Inkbrush
