titledumper.exe <dump_path_on_wiiu> /vol/content
./titledumper <dump_path_on_wiiu> /vol/content
5. On your Wii U, launch the homebrew launcher.
If you do not know how to launch the homebrew launcher, please follow the Wii U hacking guide
6. Launch the DDD application
7. Set your computer's IP address.
8. Press the X button to install ddd in memory and return to WiiU Menu.
You can also press A button instead to autoboot the inserted disc
9. Launch the title you want to dump. It will pause on the logo until the dump is done.
10. After the dump is done, the title will continue loading normally.
If everything went correctly, you should have dumped assets from the Wii U game you picked in the folder you set earlier.
