In order to follow this guide, you must have a modded Wii U console with the latest version of Aroma. If your console isn't modded, [follow this guide](https://wiiu.hacks.guide/). If your console is modded, check for any Aroma updates with the Aroma Updater and install it if any are found.
This guide will create a duplicate Aroma environment which you can use to connect to our servers. Once set up, you will be able to switch between Pretendo and SPFN by switching which environment you launch into when starting your Wii U.
Ensure that you don't have a default user set before setting up SPFN as it could cause you to log in with the wrong account. To disable it, turn on your Wii U and when it logs in, press your Mii in the top left and scroll down to the option labelled "Default User" and disable it.
If you are currently using Pretendo's DNS servers to connect to Pretendo, disable the DNS server before continuing.

Either you have selected your main Aroma environment or you have not set up the plugin correctly. Verify that you have removed the Pretendo files from the SPFN environment folder (`inkay-pretendo.wps` in `plugins` and `inkay-pretendo.wms` in `modules`). Then, when next booting your Wii U, ensure you hold `X` to open the environment selector and select the SPFN environment.
