Wii U Setup Guide
Step 1: Downloading the Ship of Harkinian
Note: This is the code that will interact with the Assets required in Step 2. This does NOT provide you with any Nintendo Licensed Assets…
Note: You will need a PC to complete this process.
On your PC
Click here to go to the releases page on GitHub, where you will find the links for all latest versions of Ship of Harkinian. Find and click the link that matches the PC platform you will be using. Also download the link that has Wii U in the name, you will need this later.
Note: The PC platform version is required to generate the oot.otr that will be used later on the Wii U.
Extract the Zip file into a Folder on your Local Hard Drive for later.
Note: Do NOT just open the zip and run SoH from there, things will break.
Note: Do NOT extract this to C:\Windows, C:\Program Files, or a cloud drive location, things will break.
Step 2: Obtaining a ROM (Legally)
Follow Step 2: Obtaining a ROM (Legally) and Step 3: Extracting the Assets and Launching Ship of Harkinian on the PC Platform you selected above.
Step 3: Extracting the Assets and Launching Ship of Harkinian
Once the oot.otr file has been generated, you no longer need the PC Platform build. The remainder of the steps here will be using the Wii U files you downloaded earlier in Step 1.
Create the following folder structure on your SD card:
sdcard
└── wiiu
└── apps
└── soh
└── oot.otr
└── soh.rpx
└── soh.otr
On your Wii U
Insert the SD Card and launch the game via the Homebrew Channel.
Congratulations, you can now play Ocarina of Time on the Ship of Harkinian.
