How does one add the homebrew channel to the wiiu menu?

[Rob0saur]

Just did my first wiiu hb install. (used tiramisu) I have some experience modding the base wii, but for some reason this is just going over my head and i was wondering if someone could instruct me on how to add the homebrew channel to the wiiu system menu so i have the mii maker functionality. i saw a few guides but they all already had the channel installed. can someone walk me through this? I'm good with the vwii stuff, just need a bit of guidance with the wiiu

Just download the homebrew launcher channel version, then install with wup.

needs to go in install/folder that's where you put the wup files. folder can be named anything, and install is on the root.

I was using an old Wii U homebrew channel that didn't fully support the Wii U pro controller so you need a Gamepad or Wii Remote to launch anything. I installed a new one that has full Wii U pro controller support. I tested it and it works. Press "start" on the pro controller and then you can control the Wii Remote hand icon with the D-pad and press A to accept.

1. Uninstall the old Wii U homebrew channel.
2. Install the new one using WUP.
