Yes you are wrong . You can install your game how i say with the braz method without any savegame you install a fresh game and inject your save after install is done -launch the game(will create a new save) -and after that use saveiine to change it with your loadiinesave
Will I have to reinstall the game to usb, after injecting the savegame using saviine? Or can I simply copy/move the savegame from internal storage to usb, while the game keeps installed on usb?

With wupinstaller y you can install it direct and easy to usb
Then use sav3iine....
But you can move it too via systemsettings but you tell my you have only the loadiinesave... and game .. pm me if you dont understand

To be clear, I am still not sure about steps 3) and 4. Is it correct like the following?
Do I have to do 4) then 3)? Or is 4) not necessary?

1) install the game to usb (with wupinstaller y mod)
2) inject savegame (with saviine)
3) copy/move savegame to usb (with system settings)
4) install the game again? (with wupinstaller y mod)

1) Copy savegame so it is on both your system and USB.
2) extract save with saviine (to backup to computer)
3) install the game to usb (with wupinstaller y mod)
4) Done.

I cannot do 1), if I dont have the savegame on system storage. I have it only on my sd.
So I would do the following:
1) install the game from sd to usb (wup-installer y mod)
2) inject loadiine save (saviine)

But is there to do more after that or is it done then?

No that's it. I had Paper Mario:CS on a loadiine save and did exactly that. I think to be safe, maybe play your game until the save spot then inject if you want to be sure it knows what it is saving over.

How old is the latest firmware version? Kinda surprised how simple and easy it is to access homebrew. Shouldn't have slept on the Wii U scene, this is some cool shit.

They released 5.5.1 earlier this year, and all homebrew stuff is primarily focused on using 5.5.1, so you're at a pretty good spot in the Wii U's lifetime.

Actual eShop purchases? Or downloaded through like something like uTikDowloadHelper? If it's the latter then just install with wup. The former you can't unless you're doing a Wii U to Wii U transfer and you'll lose all on yours.

Thanks for the quick response. It was the latter. Was hoping to copy to his HDD would have made it simple

you can play WITH DNS hax. DNS hax only prevents eshop access and updating. online play works just fine with DNS hax.

    If your internet speeds are fast enough. Streaming 4k takes alot. I used to only have 20mb sec, and 4k struggled. Now I have 300mb sec and 4k plays fine.

    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
