NUS Downloader

I'm currently writing a program called NUS Downloader (NUSD) which will be capable of downloading and packing WAD files from Nintendo's Update Server. This will be helpful whenever you need a certain System WAD (IOS36, Menu 3.2, etc.).

UPDATE: Released v1. NUS Downloader can be found on WiiBrew.

Currently I'm finishing the work on TMD information extraction (as seen below with the content names listed). I'll start now on the actual NUS download code, followed by perhaps WAD packing.

I most likely will not be writing my own packer, so I was curious as to what packer would best suite this process. It ideally should be able to pack the encrypted contents themselves without decryption.

If you have any other suggestions, feel free to say. I'd like to get them integrated before a release vs. after.

You will be able to do the Mii Channel for sure, probably the Check Mii Out Channel, however the Internet Channel and other purchased items are not possible. Things you normally have to pay for (VC, WiiWare, etc.) will not succeed in the download/packing process.

A "bug" in versions before v1.1a would do this when you entered nothing into both boxes... I try to make things safe, but I can't account for every poor choice...

Considering I have downloaded probably hundreds of titles, installed several (included SysMenu 4.0) from the program, I'd say Your Doing it Wrong ©.
 
junker_man32: Works great for me. It;'d be good if u describe your error... and If you're trying to do pay channels/games, it won't work...
 
hi guys, ihave downloaded both versions of this now and none will run on my pc. i get error message....

The application failed to initialize properly(0xc0000135). click on ok to terminate the application.

is there any other way to create these files as my wii is not connected to net?
 
Wow, when I saw the first post, I though there was a compact version :P

To not be completely off topic: You can only use Decrypt contents if you have the key.bin
But everyone probably knew that

Yeah, I know bumping after 4 months or sumin, but no question should go unanswered :P

Yes you can update a Wii with this and sometihng to install the wads.

Be VERY careful installing a new system menu, you must first install the system menu IOS or you WILL brick your Wii.

System Menu 4.2 for example requires IOS 70 BEFORE installing the menu, othe menu versions require othe IOS, do reading or risk bricking.

The requires IOS "should" be listed here : http://wiibrew.org/wiki/System_Menu

    @Sicklyboy, opensense newer than openwrt?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Google isn't very helpful anymore, you get recommended loads of crap that doesn't solve the thing that you're looking for.

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @K3Nv2, afaik yeah but I also don't think that it runs on home grade routers like openwrt/dd-wrt does. OPNsense runs on full-on x86 PC hardware
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Sadly openwrt seems to be dying for support unless it's just. Anew name
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Like made by the same devs different architecture
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    idk, I mean it had a new release back in March https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/releases
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    Not sure how recent hardware it supports though
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I mean for 1st party routers iirc linksys use to support it
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    ahhhh that I have no idea
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    pretty cool though if so
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Or from what ive heard ways to set custom imgs for 1st party routers so locked down now days
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    OPNsense VM and specs and specs of system it's running on. https://imgur.com/a/S9wgGUD
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I've turned more features on in OPNsense lately and it's getting kind of high on RAM usage, I see. Probably bump that up to 4GB soon
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    I wanna make a 8core router with support for 20gbps doesn't even sound that silly lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I only have 1 gig internet but internally I have 10 gig connectivity for everything on my lan lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    fiber connection from my desktop PC back to my core network switch
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    2 port HPE SFP+ PCIE NIC in my desktop and all of my servers
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    silly shit
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    eventually this desktop is going to act as a server too, just for the hell of it. Because this PC is WAY fucking overkill for how little I use it.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    And once I do that, my desktop OS that I interact with is just going to be a virtual machine and use GPU passthrough to connect everything
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Send it to me ffs
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    No because it's my desktop lol
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    The most use this PC is getting right now is 979 Chrome tabs open right now
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    This is my desktop there are many like it but it is mine alone
