=== | === Setting up SDCafiine === | ||
SDCafiine is a Wii U homebrew program that will load modded game files from your SD card. | |||
# Download the latest stable release of SDCafiine (not a "nightly" version) from [https://github.com/Maschell/SDCafiine/releases here]. | |||
# Extract the contents of the .zip into the root of your SD card. | |||
# Create a new folder in the root of your SD Card, named <code>sdcafiine</code>. | |||
# Within that folder, create a new folder with the name of your game's Title ID. The JP version of BotW uses <code>00050000101C9300</code>, the US version uses <code>00050000101C9400</code>, and the EU version uses <code>00050000101C9500</code>. | |||
# Within that folder, you can create any number of folders named after the mods you want to use. When you boot the game, a menu will appear allowing you to select one to use. | |||
# Inside each of those folders, create a folder named <code>content</code>. Your mod files will go in here. (Mods will often include a <code>content</code> folder already to make things clear.) | |||
To use mods, you just need to select the SDCafiine option from the Homebrew Launcher, then boot your game immediately afterwards. | |||
