GameCube Backup Launcher 0.1 Xi

This is an update of my GC Backup Launcher.

- There is now an audiofix included, which should work for most games.
- Fixed memory card bug
- Disc can be changed, if started by pressing B
- Support to switch game ISO on multigame disc (press Z to select second disc, eject and insert again)

Installation is same as last version: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=134170

There are still games not working: PokeMon XD, Ikaruga, XIII and Kirby.

Not from the Wii's SD slot or USB ports. Yet. -I doubt it will happen because once the Wii goes into GC mode those slots shut down.

Bah That goes for scousethief not Supercool

Yes, you can load dols off sd card with this program: use sdload for GC (requires sd gecko) with original/backup copy of AR. You will need to put in an long AR code. This will allow you to load dols off sd card.

You can also load dols from your max drive memory card with this program and an original max drive CD. I don't think a backup copy exists. Use patched Mios v4 so it will recognize datel discs.

Yes, you can play GC isos off of sd card: You don't need this program but the GC homebrew loader by Mega Man/ Hell Hibou. Just make sdboot 4.0 final your "start.dol" on your root. You can also load any other dol naming it as start .dol. You can choose which dol to load using later versions by Hell hibou.

Supercool330: gcars won't work on the Wii for the same reason gcos does not. It can't start the disc drive.

In that case someone should get in contact with fuzziqer and see if he will give us the source for his code handler.

Saves work correctly now. If the save was created with theta it may be incorrect. This is probably your problem.

I realize that the main point of the new loader appears to be multi disk support and some other fixes (eg. game saves); however, there is a noticible increase in compatibility, for instance, wave race now works :yaypsp: Good Work!

Hey is it possible for me to play a pal gamecube iso on a USA wii or do I have to do somethign with that iso to make it work on the wii?
 
B
earthworm: yes there was an increase in compatibility mainly with the games that use streaming audio, but usually they play without BGM.

Tested Multi-Game Iso with MGS Twin Snakes US (both disks and Monkey ball PAL) and Disk Switching works fine. Game continues just like normal. So far no issues at all with the game. Maybe bit longer initial loading screen from Konami Logo but beyond that works great.

Monkey Ball PAL has no background as above poster mentions but works fine on my 3.3U Wii without using the patched MIOS.

I was wondering that too. :unsure:
Since my two pal backups don't have video just audio.

Hey, WiiGator, it seems that the 30 read retries you said the loader would do on a DRE never happen. I keep getting a DRE in POP2 during one of the cutscenes, and I don't see any sign of the re-reading anywhere. Wii doesn't make any noise, and re-inserting the disc just gives a blackscreen.

Great stuff. Even if Ika isn't working fully, it's working better than before. Resets instead of giving an error, so if you get a random lockup, you can go back and try it again.

[quote name='naughtynazgul' post='1789062' date='Feb 21 2009, 08:57 AM']Star fox Adventures still doesn't work for me at all. I can hear sound and music but i can't see any video. I've tried forcing NTSC, PAL60.[/quote]

I got the same problem, I can hear audio but can't see the video, I have NTSC starfox + NTSC tv, I tried all the boot method, nothing work.

I can't get Waverace blue storm to work either.

I'm using mios v8 and the game is shrunk on a multigame disc (not sure if it change anything).

Any solutions?
