I didn't get that Half Life joke, so it's not funny. If this is the same MarioDK from years ago, your English has improved immensely.
Now seriously though, no one is working on the 5.5.1 downgrade? To me it's like "Ok well we are good, so [censored] everyone else" mentality. I will literally pay [censored]s to do it for me. I just don't want to buy a second Wii U, when I already have one...
Soneek, where art thou?
yes i am the same MarioDK
Thr current 5.5.1 exploit is currently closed source, since releasing it will 100% yield a system update that patches it. Right now we really just need to force the game to load patched files thru the SD slot, by figuring out how to patch that into the game's RPX, and then load the edited RPX with the 5.5.1 ELF loader. It's easier said than done though, and I have no ETA since I'm not personally working on that.
I am still mostly doing proof of concept stuff, and handing it off for others to finish what I've started for most things. My main focus now is model stuff. I have vertex injection figured out, but I'm working on injecting vertex weights for my primary task. Mainly, my plan is to be able to take existing models in game of assist trophies, Pokémon, and other NPCs, and rig them to the bones of whoever we'd want to do a complete swap over. I'm working on Blaziken, Infernape, Garchomp, and Hydreigon to renew some of my imports from my Brawl days. I'm almost there, but there's something extra rather than just changing the bone IDs and weight ratios for each vertex.
I mainly want to have as much research finished as possible so that everyone can easily transition their experience from Brawl modding over to Smash U.
Other things I've finished are nus3bank injection, IDSP building, someone is writing a tool for music setting edits based on my research for music expansions, costume specific sound banks, costume expansion, CSS repositioning, SSS repositioning, probably some other stuff I'm forgetting.
Nice to know progress is happening instead of we are in the blind about all of this
for sm4sh modding i am hoping animation edits/maybe convertor from brawl to sm4sh some how so we can port our mods easier too will be possible too if not i dont mind redo my Goku Animations anyways(possible the first one i will do or Geno or might aswell get it over with: Shadow)
maybe a Sm4shBox (brawlbox but for smash 4)
