The episode I'm wanting to play is at https://wohlsoft.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=4799, and I'm not sure if it's too big to be processed on Wii U or anything, but currently every episode I've added to the Wii U shows a black screen when I try to play it. Yes, I did make sure it was for TheXTech, not X2 or 38A. Using 1.3.7.1 version of XTech, which should be compatible according to the post.
I believe in Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior. If you do, put this in your signature.

Hello!
Sounds weird, but I suggest you to upgrade to 1.3.7.2 or even better try the test version of the game that contains even more bugfixes and it's going to be 1.3.7.3 release in the nearest time, I have some important bugfixes for it including the home menu bug that causes black screen problem when V-Sync is off.

Added after 51 seconds:
Just from myself, I developed the Wii U version and I polished it on various content including pretty heavy, and it works just perfect. Wii U is powerful enough to run complete functionality without restrictions unlike Wii and 3DS.

Added after 49 seconds:
The only problems that I found are just bugs, on the game itself, or on the SDL2 for Wii U that is a dependency used by TheXTech, and I contributed some bugfixes to them too.

Added after 1 minute 23 seconds:
P.S. Just in a case I will try to test the thing by myself once I get my home at the UTC+3 evening.
