A simple tool to make a nintendo web framework game work on a modded wii u!

- Open the Nintendo Web Framework app you installed (not NWFToInstall.exe!) and click "New Project"
- Ensure "New Game" is highlighted blue and give your project a name. (Ensure both the name and project save location do not contain a space!)
- Go to where your project folder and open the app folder
- Here is where you will place your html/External files, make sure they are compatiable with the wii u's old outdated web standered! (if you'd like just leave the current index.html in there)
- Back to the NWF app click "Project" then change the unique and group id to something else (both the same id), these need to be changed every compile or the wii u will crash if new files are added to the app folder
- Click ok in the bottom right and then click "master"
- Ensure Mastering Target is "Application" and the Mastering Type is "Debug"

- After the mastering process is complete open "NWFToInstall.exe"
- In the explorer window that pops up, go to the project folder and open "mastered_images", then "debug" then select the folder with the latest date moddifed
- Wait a couple seconds and it should popup with a new window with the folder "TheGame", that is your wii u installable! Install it with Wup Installer GX2!
Q. My wii u crashes when opening the app!
A. You likley forgot to change the title id, after changing files in the app folder. This isn't your html code broken or wrong.
Q. Its a whitescreen after opening!
A. Your html is broken or has errors. check if its compatiable with the wii u's browser or just has broken code
Q. Why do you need to run it through the NWFToInstall.exe?!
A. Not an issue, but the app converts it to a non encrypted wii u package that can be installed on a wii u
