Basically you're going to have to find them on the internet. The methods for extracting the files from your own Wii U games has not been made public, so we basically have to make do with what's been supplied.

Actually the kernel exploit was finally released so anyone on 5.3.2 can extract their own stuff with TCPGecko. Splatoon stuff has been up for a while but haven't gotten very far, I've been poking someone about getting it up in more places.

ALL CREDIT GOES TO RTB FOR THE DATA.

Well it depends on what game files you got. Got anything from Sploon?

Won't be able to get those until people figure out how to decrypt DLC files, unfortunately.

RE: Wii U Ripping Catch-All Thread - Demonslayerx8 - 08-25-2015

well... how were people able to rip the dlc characters then...? cause there's Link and Villagers on TMR section for MK8..

Maybe it's that the characters are on the update files but the actual DLC files have the courses? probably wrong but maybe

Correct. Update data can be decrypted easily, and everyone can see the other characters online regardless of whether they have the DLC or not. It's just the courses that can't be ripped, since they're in the DLC archives instead (but not the DLC courses' music, oddly enough).

RE: Wii U Ripping Catch-All Thread - Demonslayerx8 - 08-25-2015

hmm i see... that is very strange indeed... o.O

RE: Wii U Ripping Catch-All Thread - NWPlayer123 - 08-26-2015

Yea, everything except the actual course data is in the update, and that's what downloads when you purchase the DLC. You have to access each "package" with a special library, nn_aoc (Nintendo Network Add-On Content), and I haven't bothered figuring out how to use it yet. I updated the Wii U with it on to 5.5.0 but it broke the exploit we have so I'll probably have to wait a bit before I can dump it since I can't run code anymore :< (we have userspace and kernel on latest but the userspace does a lot of weird corruption unstable stuff so it doesn't work on most Wii U's, including my updated one).

Anybody want a BFFNT (font) converter?

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/27874399/BFFNTtoGTX.bms

Works (and has been tested) with the font files for the following games:

Code:
Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker

Game & Wario

Kirby and the Rainbow Curse

Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker HD

Mario & Sonic at the Soichi 2014 Olympic Winter Games

Mario Kart 8

Mario Party 10

NES Remix 1 & 2 / NES Remix Pack

New Super Mario Bros. U

NintendoLand

Pikmin 3

Splatoon

Super Mario 3D World

Wii Party U

Wii Sports Club

Yoshi's Woolly World (*EXCEPT* for Font01.bffnt, still looking into why it won't convert)

I'd advise using the "Lossless" conversion method for those, and the TexConv2 fix script on the DDS files afterwards.
You'll need to flip them vertically, since they're upside down by default. Any greyscaled fonts don't need the alpha channel since it's the exact same as the original image, and any textures that appear completely transparent after you run it through the fix script (or blue and yellow without the transparency) need to be split into RGB and merged with the red channel as all three RGB colors and the G as the alpha. B is just leftover pixels and isn't necessary.

Great job, once again RTB! Never fail to amaze Smile

Quick update to that BFFNT script, it now adds the grid size into the filenames, making it easy to set up.

RE: Wii U Ripping Catch-All Thread - AlistairRoo - 09-05-2015

Is it possible to download the font used in Mario Kart 8? the one used to name characters, tracks, modes, etc?
