I probably should've gone over how to install VMWare Player... oh well. I also didn't show how to Homebrew your Wii U or install the System Config Tool, but that is a bit out of the scope for this video.
Linux Terminal Commands:
pastebin.com/nucmJfYq
(moved to an external site since KZfaq shortens URLs in its descriptions)
If you're new to Linux, it might seem a bit weird that there is no indication that the terminal is reading your keyboard inputs when typing in your password. Just type it and press enter, it is picking up keys despite not showing it with an asterisk.

This video is a suppliment to one on my main channel in which I talk about the software and my use case behind it a bit more.

Just to make it a little clearer as to the WiFi adapter, all an adapter needs is to have 5GHz capabilities and support AP as an interface mode. In linux, the command to check is "iw list"

Thank you soooo much for this tutorial. I'm not sure who developed it, but that third command saves so much time. I tried this 6+ months ago, but got frustrated after manually installing all the packages and then realizing my WiFi stick didn't work. This turned a 2 hour process into a 20 minute process. Great stuff!

So I actually just did this a while ago and it was kind of a mess in ways. The application window was smaller than it should be and it did not resize. I had to modify the scripts to make it display all UI elements. After that it was a bit touch and go. I used my laptop's built-in wifi adapter (GPD Win Max 2) and I was able to get it to work. All I needed was: 1. Install Ubuntu per this video's instructions 2. Edit script to change window size from 300x150 to 900x450 in /opt/drc/... 3. Connect laptop to ethernet via USB hub 4. Follow instructions based on this video 5. Installed Aroma and paired a gamepad (different region) I had. Glad my new $15 wii u (+ extra gamepad) worked well. Installing Aroma + Tiramisu is a bit scary but at least make sure you never close the application since you can't pair the gamepad while environment loader is open. You can just keep restarting the server without pairing without issues. Then set up Aroma to autoboot and then once it's setup, you can pair any Wii U gamepad. Con is you can't use stock and Tiramisu mode as it will complain about your gamepad being out of region because Nintendo got to Nintendo.

Glad to hear you got it working! I’m not really super deep into Wii U modding so I don’t know anything about the newer software / exploits, but after pairing your out of region GamePad to the system, you shouldn’t need CFW to keep it connected, from my experience! I only needed to use Haxchi to open the system config tool. GamePad stays paired with stock firmware thereafter.

Hi! Thank you for the video :D I don't currently have a wifi adapter. Would my normal internet connection work if I have optical 5 GHz connection or is that something different? Also, the Wii U I wanna do this on its a EU one, but I also have an NA with gamepad. If I connect the NA gamepad to the EU console with sys-config and then I link the gamepad to its NA console, wouldI have to enter sys-config again if I want to link the NA to the EU console (and would I still need DRC-SIM via Ubuntu) or is the EU console region free forever?

In one case, the it accepted the key and connected properly, but couldn't stream the audio/video in the Java client. Had to do a lot of trial and error until I found one card that worked.

Recently acquired a Wii U without a gamepad (can't even change the Wii U's language or time!) and tried this. After a few hours, I finally got Ubuntu successfully running under VM, but the DRC client's "Get key" option is BLANK. Tried my laptop, two DLink USB adapters and a Netgear, none of them recognized! This is frustrating as my Acer laptop's built-in network adapter (Atheros QCA9377) supports 5 GHz dual band and AP as far as I'm aware, but don't see a way to link it to the virtual OS. Sigh.

Hi! I have a little question, it is necesary to have a Linksys AE1000? Its impossible to me to buy one and I was wondering if other 5GHz wi fi cards or even a phone connected through USB as a hotspot would work. Thank you for this tutorial, im really concerned about the future of the Wii U, since theres a finite number of gamepads and they work as physical DRM, effectively rendering the console useless once the gamepad stops working. I really hope DRC-Sim and similar solutions get further developed. Have a nice day!

@kitsucroco 2 жыл бұрын
The Linksys AE1000 isn’t the ONLY card that works, no. The GitHub repository reports some other card working as well, but I assume there’s only two because they’re the only two that have been tested. I don’t know nearly enough about actual Wi-Fi hardware to pinpoint what specifications a card needs to work- but do note that it’s about the Wi-Fi protocol, not “Wi-Fi” in terms of internet connection. I don’t think a phone mobile hotspot could work because it’s not something your PC can manage. DRC-SIM needs to have direct control over the device, which is why it prompts you to release it from Ubuntu’s NetworkManager.

I cannot get it to connect to the Wii U. Every other step before it worked completely fine. I am using the same Linksys AE1000 adapter, I made sure to install the drivers. I tried to use VirtualBox and it didn't work. I switched to VMWare and followed your instructions exactly. Didn't work. I switched to the exact same version of Ubuntu you're using in this video, and it didn't work. I have re-input the code repeatedly, over and over again wondering if I had entered it wrong. Didn't work. The adapter appears in the network section of my devices, the adapter has been added to the VM, I made sure the adapter supports 5ghz in the VM. It still cannot find the console. I have tried moving it right next to the console, I've tried restarting the Wii U, I've tried removing the extender it came with and using the stick alone, and yet it still cannot connect to the Wii U. I have wasted the past 8 hours troubleshooting and I legitimately do not know what I've done wrong or what I can do to fix this.

@kitsucroco
@kitsucroco Жыл бұрын
To answer your main question: Yes, the client and server may run on the same machine. If you’re running Linux as your main OS, you can do this without VMs so long as you meet the hardware requirements. However, it would probably disable your Wi-Fi until you allow it to be managed again, which I don’t really know how to go about. If you find anything out, let me know! About the Steam Deck: I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. Your default package manager would likely be different, so you can’t use the exact commands in the video. Another commenter says it didn’t work, but I’m not convinced because there wasn’t any explanation of what went wrong. I personally don’t have a Steam Deck but maybe if I’m bored one afternoon I’ll try to get it running on whatever distro that guy was talking about. Apparently it’s basically the same thing.

There are instructions for Arch-based distros on the repository that I’d check out if you’re experienced with Linux (I’m not lol). I’d imagine they’re also broken, but if you know what you’re doing then you might find something useful to start with. There’s also a fork called drc-sim-e that might be looking into. I think it was trying to revive this software but it was a heavy WIP at the time I tried to use it. I’m unsure if it’s still active because I ended up figuring out how to get the original working first.

@@Rykst3r - I was able to get it to work with just the one built-in wireless network adapter in my desktop PC. However, in order to do this I ran Ubuntu natively, NOT through a Virtual Machine. It seems to disable the use of the WiFi adapter outside of DRC SIM however, so I can't access the Internet in the OS, but that is okay because I'm just using it to connect to the Wii U.

Try opening a terminal window and typing the command “ifconfig” It should give you a bunch of network information, and one of them will be the IP for the VM on your host machine. It’ll most likely follow the same format as 192.168.X.X

has to be wireless because the Wii U has 2 wifi modules, one for the gamepad and the other for the online and stuff. The gamepad uses 5 ghz to be able to communicate to the Wii U, and you need a wireless wifi adapter that can support the 5 ghz to be able to simulate it onto your PC, and communicate to the Wii U.
