It's been a few years since that was posted, so there may be some additional changes needed to compile with the latest versions of GCC at this point. I compiled a while back using the mentioned fixes and the binary still works fine for me. You can download my copy if you'd like.

I appreciate the offer Nitro, unfortunately I need a 32 bit for ARM (armel) compile; I downloaded the image onto my old Seagate nas and work with files there. It's a great little box apart from the fact it's running a rather old 3.10.72 kernel, however there's Entware and many Debian ARMel binaries work on it. It's no problem, I'll use it so rarely it's easier to just copy it to a Windows machine, the only problem was I had no idea it would inflate to a full Bluray disk size and use the /temp directory, I had to change the temp location to E:\ - it's my first foray into the WiiU scene and I'm learning as I go (from you all, everyone here is a big help). Thanks.
 
This saves so much space, currently converting my wud files. Is there a way to batch the folder?
 
Lol, good work man but when i compressed skylanders trap team from wux to wud the game doubled in size, it was 12 GB now its 24 GB when i used this, still good though

What OS does this program run on?

Trying to drag and drop on Windows 10 and it doesn't allow it.
 
can you renew the main downlaod link?
ZippyShare Is Dead until Forever
(that menas ZippyShare is no longer useable)
 
I'm quite novice with these kinda things, so please forgive me if my questions are stupid.

If I understand correctly, this is compression tool for .wud files that are the ones that only the WiiU emulator on pc uses?
Or can one use this tool to save disk space by compressing wuds before installing them onto a extrenal hd thats hooked into WiU?

Since I have gotten the impression that .wuds are for emulator and .wups are for actual WiiU?
 
where's the download button
please, can anyone tell me?

The program was successful but upon running the decompressed WUD file I'm getting an error that says:
"This title is encrypted. To run this application open keys.txt and add the disc key. "
However when I add the disc key I get an error on line 6 notification. I've downloaded 3 versions of this game, all of which have the same problem, and none of which come with text instructions on what to do next. Despite successfully unzipping, decompressing or converting multiple file formats.

I downloaded this program to unpack the WUX format into WUD so this wouldn't be a problem. Every single game I download should have a .nfo file that gives me 3 or 4 sentences with the instructions for how to get past there error and none of them do. i need the exact format for how to input a game key, which I have, into the keys.txt file. I keep getting an error on line 6 when I do.
