Saviine 1.1 (02.04.2016)
2015-10-16 14:11:59 +02:00
Dumps and injects (experimental) WiiU Saves.
Works with homebrew launcher (https://github.com/dimok789/homebrew_launcher), compatible with FW 5.0.0, 5.1,0, 5.3.2, 5.4.0, 5.5.x (But requires a kernel exploit)
2015-10-16 14:11:59 +02:00
Compilation :
- just compile it with "make" and put the saviine.elf on your sd card
2015-10-16 14:11:59 +02:00
Pre-made version :
- you can fine a release package under the "releases" tab
2015-10-16 14:11:59 +02:00
Note :
- make sure you already have a save of the game on you console before trying to dump/inject them
2015-10-16 14:11:59 +02:00
- you can change the server ip directly in the application.
- start the saviine in folder with a short path, some savedata files have some really long names (170+ chracters)
- backup your savedata before dumping it!!! I'm not responsible for any lost data.
- make sure that your game version and the game version from injecting save are the same
- e.g. injecting PAL saves into NTSC one is untested!
- this new version only runs with the homebrew_launcher.

NOTE FOR SUPER SMASH BROS FOR WIIU the common data is too big to inject at one time. The data will may be flushed at some time. automaticly restoring the data after flushing is not possible. MAKE SURE TO MAKE A BACKUP! This may also applies to other gaames
The WiiU has mutiple save folder. One folder for infos that are shared with all accounts (common) and a folder for each account (e.g 8000000a)
At the moment it is only possible to dump the common folder your own folder. Not all games use the common folder.
Folder structur:
logs/ <-- logs
saviine_root/dump <-- the save files will be dumped here. A sub folder for each game will be created (name is the game title id)
saviine_root/inject <-- place the saves here if you want to inject them

How to use :
temporary installing saviine:
- put the elf into the app path on your SD Card (e.g. /wiiu/apps/saviine/saviine.elf) and insert the sd card into your WiiU (You can also use the sendelf method)
- launch the homebrew launcher to install the kernel exploit
- relaunch browser and launch the homebrew launcher again. This time the homebrew launcher will start.
- select saviine and start it.
- set saviine server ip in the application with up/down/left/right, and press A to install saviine. if you see crap on the screen, press up/down to fix it

-> browser should exit
dumping:
--- MAKE SURE THAT THE SAVIINE SERVER IN A FOLDER WITH A SHORT PATH! some gamefiles have some really really long names. e.g. D:/saviine/ ---
- open the dump.bat or start the saviine_server.exe with the argument "dump"
- launch a game
- a dialog should appear, select if you want to dump the user and/or the common data
- the data will be dumped to saviine_root/dump/[game_title_id]/80000000x (user data) and/or saviine_root/dump/[game_title_id]/common (common)
- close the game and dump an other
injecting:
--- INJECTING FILES IS STILL IN TESTING! MAKE SURE TO SAVE YOUR SAVES BEFORE TRYING TO INJECT SOMETHING ---
--- EXISTING SAVE DATA ON THAT WILL BE GONE AFTER THE INJECTION ---
- open the inject.bat or start the saviine_server.exe with the argument "inject"
- place the save data you want to inject into the "saviine_root/inject" folder. You need to have a folder for each game, named after the games title id (e.g saviine_root\inject\00050000-1010ED00).
this folder will be scanned for 8000000x or common folders.
- launch a game
- a dialog should appear, select if the profile you want to inject and choose if you want to inject the common files too.
For the commmon folder you have two options:
1. inject.
this adds the data into the existing common folder, existing files will be overwritten. (I think this way you can add replays to your Mario Kart 8)
2. clean and inject
deletes all existing files in the existing common and injects the new one.
- on errors during the injection, the wii tries to restore the old data. but it can't guarantee that it works, make sure to make backups!
