Connecting

NOTE: PRETENDO IS CURRENTLY NOT READY FOR CASUAL USERS. ONLY DEVELOPERS AND OFFICIAL TESTERS SHOULD BE CONNECTING AT THIS STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT

Prerequisites:

• NodeJS
• Fiddler
• Python
• Homebrew on either your WiiU or 3DS
• This set of patches for the 3DS

Setup (Computer):

1. In Fiddler, open Tools > Options
2. In the HTTPS tab turn on HTTPS Connects
3. Enable HTTPS decrypting
4. Ignore server certificate errors
5. In the Connections tab tick Allow remote computers to connect
6. Turn off Act as system proxy on startup
7. Back in the HTTPS tab click Actions > Export Root Certificate to Desktop
8. Rename FiddlerRoot.cer to CACERT_NINTENDO_CA_G3.der wherever you exported it to.
9. Go complete on of the console sections
10. Open the FiddlerScript section of the Fiddler UI and find the OnBeforeRequest method
11. At the end of the method, add:

// Change "account.nintendo.net" to whatever server you are replacing
if (oSession.HostnameIs("account.nintendo.net"))
{
    if (oSession.HTTPMethodIs("CONNECT"))
    {
        // This is just a fake tunnel for CONNECT requests
        oSession["x-replywithtunnel"] = "PretendoTunnel";
        return;
    }

    oSession.fullUrl = "https://account.pretendo.cc" + oSession.PathAndQuery;
}

12. Restart Fiddler to apply changes

Setup (WiiU):

Quick note, you will need Mocha installed on your WiiU. If you followed the guide all the way through, you will.

1. Install FTPiiU_Everywhere (NOT THE REGULAR FTPiiU!)
2. In your WiiU launch in to Mocha (redNAND or sysNAND, doesn't matter. Do which ever you want)
3. Launch the Homebrew Launcher and startup FTPiiU_Everywhere
4. Connect to the FTP server on your computer. On Windows, I use FileZilla. On Linux, I just use the ftp command. On MacOS, I use Finder.
5. Go to /vol/storage_mlc01/sys/title/0005001b/10054000/content
6. Enter scerts and replace the CACERT_NINTENDO_CA_G3.der file there with the CACERT_NINTENDO_CA_G3.der file we just made earlier from the FiddlerRoot.cer
7. Close the FTP connection on your computer and exit FTPiiU_Everywhere (press Home button)
8. Reboot your console (DO NOT FORCE REBOOT (holding power button for 4 seconds)! REBOOT NORMALLY (only hold for 2 seconds)! FORCE REBOOTING CAN SOMETIMES ERASE CHANGES!)
9. Go to the connection settings for your WiFi connection on your WiiU and turn on proxy connections
10. Set the proxy server to your PC's IP, and the port to 8888 (unless you changed the Fiddler port)
11. Congratulations! You have now connected to Pretendo
