This userscript adds back the button to download account data (account.dat) from Pretendo.Network that can be used with Cemu. You still need a seeprom.bin and otp.bin from an actual Wii U, but there are still cases where this tool can come in handy.
You'll need a user script manager for your browser. Here are some for each browser:
- Firefox: Tampermonkey, Violentmonkey, or Greasemonkey
- Chrome: Tampermonkey or Violentmonkey
- Edge: Tampermonkey or Violentmonkey
- Safari: Tampermonkey or Userscripts
Then install the extension by clicking here.
Once installed, you'll find a "download account files" button on your Pretendo account page.
You can uninstall the userscript after your account file has been successfully obtained.
A hashed copy of your password is stored in the account.dat. Don't worry, your password is only stored in memory briefly and isn't transmitted anywhere.
Yes, only one to Pretendo's account API to retrieve the following:
- Account PID
- Mii data
- Mii name
- Username
- Email address
And again, this data is not shared with me or any other third parties.
You also need a seeprom.bin and otp.bin from an actual Wii U. This script can't help you obtain those. You need a Wii U to dump those unique files from.
If your friend shares their dumped files with you, you can use this to get your account file without first signing into Pretendo on their Wii U. Or maybe you don't want to go through the trouble of setting up Pretendo on real hardware in the first place.
If you're unsure, I suggest you get your account file another way. Or if you are familiar with Javascript, I encourage you to take a look at the userscript and verify it doesn't do any funny business. It's only about 230 lines long, not including the "zip" dependency.
