Ash Logan 38f1b1848e fix(account-settings): Don't re-add function patches on every application boot
libfunctionpatcher stuff is persistent from plugin init time to plugin teardown time. but the memory replacements DO need to happen on every launch, so rearrange things a bit.

Inkay - Aroma patches for Pretendo

Pretendo network logo

Inkay is an Aroma/WUPS plugin that patches various Nintendo Network URLs on a Wii U to use Pretendo Network instead. It also (for the time being) bypasses SSL verification in most cases. It redirects Nintendo Network in:

  • IOSU-side connections (Friends, SpotPass, accounts etc.)
  • Account Settings
  • NNCS
  • Nintendo eShop
  • Miiverse (in-game)
  • Miiverse applet

Inkay also includes game-specific patches to add extra features:

  • Modpack-specific matchmaking for global, regional rooms (by simulating extra DLC) - Mario Kart 8
  • P2P port override for better connection stability (if you port forward) - Minecraft: Wii U Edition

Dependencies

Inkay is only supported on the release version of Aroma configured for autoboot/coldboot. Other configurations (specifically lacking coldboot) may cause issues with SpotPass.

Safety

Inkay's patches are all temporary, and only applied in-memory without modifying your console. The SSL patch, while also temporary, could reduce the overall security of your console while active - this is because it no longer checks if a server is verified. However, this does not apply to the Internet Browser, where SSL still works as expected.
