| The following tutorial is made by Goldtex, using [[Mario Kart 8]] as an example.
| |
| | |
| This tutorial currently as of 31/7/17 the browser exploit was patched by 5.5.2 if you're on 5.5.2 you can't dump content.

| |
| # Insert your SD Card into your computer. Follow the Starter Pack (Wii U Homebrew Pack) that was linked.
| |
| # Safely take out your SD Card, and place it into your Wii U.
| |
| # Turn on your Wii U, make sure there's no disc in the console. If you want to dump onto a USB drive, then plug it in right now. Tell the Wii U to not format it.
| |
| # Go to the internet browser, go to loadiine.ovh, and choose Homebrew Launcher. Once Homebrew Launcher opens, choose disc2app.
| |
| # Press A if you want to dump to the SD Card, or press B if you want to dump onto the USB drive. Once disc2app asks for the disc, insert it into the Wii U.
| |
| # The Wii U will start dumping the files off the disc. Be patient with this.
| |
| # The Wii U will go back to the main menu once it finishes dumping.
| |
| # Redo the steps to getting to the Homebrew Launcher. Instead of launching disc2app, open up ddd.
| |
| # (Windows 8 and above) Open up Task Manager, click more details, go to performance, then click on Ethernet/Wi-Fi. Look at the IPv4 address, and enter that into the ddd screen. Look at the gamepad screen for instructions.
| |
| # (Windows 7 and below) Go to the command prompt on your computer, and type in ipconfig. Look at the IPv4 address, and enter that into the ddd screen. Look at the gamepad screen for instructions.
| |
| # Tell ddd to go back to the home menu. Return to your PC, extract and place titledumper in a safe spot, and create a bat file where titledumper is at having these contents:<code>"titledumper.exe /vol/aoc ./DLC"</code>
| |
| # Open up the bat file. Go back to your Wii U, and open the game that has the DLC that you want to dump. The DLC should start dumping to your PC.
| |
| # Extract CDecrypt to a safe spot. Move the contents of the folder in install folder into the same spot as CDecrypt.
| |
| # Create a bat file with the following line:<code>"CDecrypt title.tmd title.tik"</code>
| |
| # Open up the bat file, and the dump should now start extracting.
| |
| # Once it's finished extracting, go to the meta folder in the game dump. Open up meta.xml.
| |
| # Look at the entry of title_id. In Mario Kart 8 USA's case, it contains "000500001010EC00"
| |
| # In the Cemu folder, go to mlc01\usr\title. Create a folder named 00050000.
| |
| # Look at the last 8 digits of the title_id. Once again for MK8USA, it's 1010EC00. Create a folder with the last 8 digits.
| |
| # Extract NUSGrabber to a safe spot, and create a bat file with the following: "NUSgrabber (titleid)"
| |
| # For the title_id, make sure that the 8th character is an E. For MK8, "000500001010EC00" would turn into "0005000E1010EC00"
| |
| # Open up the bat file, and the update should now start downloading. Afterwards, extract it in the same way with the game dump.
| |
| # Drag the extracted code, content, and meta folder into the last 8 digits folder.
| |
| # Create an aoc folder inside the folder with the last 8 digits. Create a content folder inside that aoc folder.
| |
| # Find where you dumped the DLC, and drag the number folders (ex. 0010) into the content folder.
| |
| # Open up the game in Cemu, and it should boot up with the update and DLC installed. Enjoy!

| |
| # Insert your SD Card into your computer. Follow the Starter Pack that was linked. Don't forget to also place ddd onto the SD card.
| |
| # Safely take out your SD Card, and place it into your Wii U.
| |
| # Turn on your Wii U, go to the internet browser, go to loadiine.ovh, and choose Homebrew Launcher. Once Homebrew Launcher opens, choose ddd, and open that app up.
| |
| # (Windows 8 and above) Open up Task Manager, click more details, go to performance, then click on Ethernet/Wi-Fi. Look at the IPv4 address, and enter that into the ddd screen. Look at the gamepad screen for instructions.
| |
| # (Windows 7 and below) Go to the command prompt on your computer, and type in ipconfig. Look at the IPv4 address, and enter that into the ddd screen. Look at the gamepad screen for instructions.
| |
| # Go back to the home menu. Return to your PC, extract and place titledumper in a safe spot, and create a bat file where titledumper is at having these contents:<code>"titledumper.exe /vol ./GameNameGoesHere"</code>
| |
| # Open up the bat file. Go back to your Wii U, and open the game that you want to run in Cemu. The game should start dumping to your PC. This will take a while depending on how large the game is.
| |
| # Once the dump is done, press the home button. If nothing appears for at least a minute, go back to the Wii U menu. It should dump the meta folder and finish up the game dump.
| |
| # Once it's finished dumping, go to the meta folder in the game dump. Open up meta.xml.
| |
| # Look at the entry of title_id. In Mario Kart 8 USA's case, it contains "000500001010EC00"
| |
| # In the Cemu folder, go to mlc01\usr\title. Create a folder named 00050000.

| ===Compressing game files===
| |
| ''Compressing game files is purely optional, but will save tons of space on your hard drive, as most uncompressed size of dumped games are very large (~23,3 GB).''

| *Exzap created a Wii U image (WUD) compression tool, compressing to lossless. <br>For links and a short tutorial, check out: https://gbatemp.net/threads/wii-u-image-wud-compression-tool.397901/
