Hacking Homebrew wup installer gx2 with usb

[mazz0ni_exe]

Hi everyone, i have all my hombrew files on a 16gb sd card which i also use to install games but some weighed more than that. I was wondering if it was possible to insert the files to be installed on a separate USB stick with the folder called "install" inside

if you mean a larger usb stick, then yes. just make sure you have sig patches enabled and have a way to access wup installer. I'd just leave wiiu/apps entirely to prevent any mistakes, then just have install, and you should be good.

what is sig patches?

 

[godreborn]

signature patches. you'll get an error about sig patches if they're not present. if you're using tiramisu, they're in wiiu/apps. that's why I suggested just to copy that folder over as well as install. it also contains wup installer, so it will prevent any problems.

so i have to transfer my wiiu folder to the usb stick?

oh, no, both install and wiiu are on the sd card. you mean usb stick? ah, you can transfer them to a new one, and swap, yes. however, the sorting will get reset for each when you unplug one and plug the other in. also, the wiiu doesn't like usb sticks, so it's possible it will work at first, then start giving you black screens. I suggest an hdd.

Just buy a bigger SD card. Format it to FAT32 using Rufus and copy everything to it from the old one.

I have a hardisk on which I install the games and I have an SD card on which I have all the hombrew launcher apps. I wanted to insert the "install" folder on a separate usb stick with the game to be installed inside

 

[godreborn]

can't do that. you have to use an sd card for the install folder.
