# Load a plugin via network
While the loader is running, it's possible to load a single plugin via [wiiload](http://wiibrew.org/wiki/Wiiload).
When using this feature, this and all plugins in `sd:/wiiu/plugins/temp` will be loaded. The plugin will copied to the SDCard, this mean a SDCard is required.
A windows executable can be found in `tools/wiiload.exe`

Much stuff also wouldn't be possible without dimok789. He made many great tools and homebrew this stuff in based on (Makefiles, Mocha, homebrew channel, udp logger, dynamic_libs etc.)
Also thanks to everyone who made actual exploits.
