The file format WU8 (Wiimms U8) was developed by Wiimm for his SZS Tools. It is designed to allow exchanging of custom tracks over the Internet without any Nintendo stuff and without license problems. The design is similar to the file format U8, but it is encrypted in a simple way (XOR only). A WU8 can only decrypted, if the original and unique objects files (BRRES, BREFT, BREFF, BRASD and KCL) are stored in a local library (called auto-add library).

A decoded WU8 file is identical to the original and normalized source file.
