Homebrew [RELEASE] Aroma Environment for Wii U

[chrisrlink]

I suppose the response would be not but.....Will aroma allows a EUR to play WAD JAP games one day??

use Friimywads to append the region free flag and install them on vwii i do it for jap wiiware all the time

 

[chrisrlink]

This. And there's no BS than can be said otherwise...

except as you may know hdd's/NAND/SDCards do have a r/w limit you know

Except, as you may know, there isn't a finite number of those to be bought around the world, you know... plus media wear has no relation for the need to pirate full Wii / Wii U / Virtual Console sets on a 8TB HDD in order to have all of them available 24/7...

 

[sion_zaphod]

Entire Wii set with virtual console and wiiware, just over 3tb. With complete Gamecube set just under 4tb. Wiiu with complete Virtual console comes in under 2tb. Just putting that out there.

Yeah they need to update wup installer. Thats the one thing i use.

Me too.

 

[pimpmaul69]

So what's the issue?

Nuspli requires downloading files correct? I already have everything on nintendos servers plus a couple thousand that arent. How would i go about installing what i have without wup installer?

No it has a "WUP Installer" built in.

NUSSpli is a title installer like wup installer. Not just a cdn downloader.

The Homebrew App Store has already a "AROMA" Section.....but is empty for the moment.

Hello Sir @Maschell

I have unfortunately still the "Issue" when quitting the Homebrew App Store (with "- / SELECT" on the GamePad),it stays on the Store Screen.
The Music is muted and I can "safely" turn off the whole Wii U System with the POWER Button on the Wii U GamePad.

(Aroma Beta 2 as Main Boot / PAL / German Wii U Version 5.5.5 / Tiramisu is installed as Second Environment)

Thank you and have a very,very,very nice Day,my dear Sir.

 

[mrmagicm]

chrisrlink No, Friimywads doesn't work on some WADS.....Example contra Msx Wad.​

Would anyone have a tutorial to create FLASH WAD or FLASH WIIU CHANNEL from a Pc game?
I'd be glad one day to have hundred of tile of Flash games under AROMA

This is more of an issue with the Homebrew App Store itself.

You can download a recent Artifact build (under actions) from the github (Need login)which does fix the exiting issue and available in WUHB Format.
https://github.com/fortheusers/hb-appstore

An offical update shouldn't be too far off.

@samethernet,

Just tryed this version in wuhb format and it works.
So now also a working HB appstore on aroma.
Now just waiting for more apps to be converted/updated in wuhb format.

@Alexander1970, you tryed it yet ??

Thx for the info.

This. And there's no BS than can be said otherwise...

Preservationists exist, you know. SOMEONE has to keep software from being lost forever to corporate negligence or Orwellian tampering. (Or even just old releases! The Sims 2 is WAY better than The Sims 4 for more reasons than the latter's Orwellian abuse of personal pronouns - things that really belong to languages.)

There's also the new homebrew system of having SD-installed programs appear on the home menu. If people are going to reach the 300 title edge case, it will be with that. (I wonder if piracy would get such a bad rap if people realised the preservation angle? Even Nintendo used such things - Punch Out screenshots in community emulators to develop Smooth Moves anyone?)

Pirates on these kind of forums and Facebook groups that clamor their need to install 1400 Wii, Gamecube, and Wii U titles on the console are not "preservationists", you know? Waaay to far from it. LOL.

That SOMEONE is people from redump, archive, tosec, etc. Not the average joe from the forums/groups that wants to install 289 Virtual Console because omg-i-hate-ninty-and-their-re-releases-i-wont-pay-im-gonna-punish-them-with-my-torrents, or what-if-my-friends-come-over-and-want-an-obscure-game-thats-why-i-have-all-games-ready-for-them excuses.


Now on the subject of the thread, which is the only important thing:

Now this.

I've already seen lots of wuhb file out there for many of the recent homebrew engines, that section is going to populate really fast.

 

[wolf-snake]

Ok i'll stop this silly argument about the Wii U title limit. If that limit bother you so much then move to Emulation, simple as that.

PAL / German Wii U

I can smell the german part into your console until here xD

How are we able to load the plugins and how can I boot into the homebrew launcher with this environment?

EDIT: I’ll boot them via tiramisu for now

After you add Aroma, access the PayloadLoader by holding X when selecting Health & Safety from the quickstart menu on the gamepad, and then you can change your default autoboot from Tiramisu to Aroma (you can always change it back when you need to access Tiramisu). When you boot into Aroma the plugins included already run in the background, you don't have to do anything to activate them.
