I keep getting black screen after Wii Remote Strap screen when trying to load Zelda Twilight Princess PAL on my PAL 4.0e, using Backup Launcher. Wiigator 0.3 - the compatibility list says it works perfectly? All other games i tried work ok (SM Galaxy, Resident 4, SSBB, Mario Party, Virtua Tennis and few others).

Anyone knows what is the problem? I burnt it with 4x speed on Sony DVD-R, like all the other games.

im new to this site but im always writing things. not nessasly backups. but i do know a little about burning. go and get this application "imgburn program" and burn at 2x speed.
this application is really simple click on the ISO . the program will start and you just need hit ok.
In my opinon You should always burn at 2x speed. i would burn at 1x but have'nt found it nessasry to do so yet. you can burn at 1x with IMGBurn if you want to.
CODEhttp://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download


NOW as for sony dvd-R .....hm.... well im using sony dvd +R and HP dvd +R work just fine. i have tried 1 or 2 dvd -R's but have always used DVD+R and Sony is the best to buy . the hp was on sale and if your near the west coast US. there is store called FRY's and their GC brand is actually sony.
I'm using LG and samsung burners both
Everyback up i have burned works just fine. in the case where a burn has not worked it has turned out to be somthing like the 002 error

Good Luck

Hi I was asking in the hacking section, but this is probably the better place to ask.

If I was to go out and buy Grand Slam Tennis, or Tiger Woods Golf today..and wanted to ensure that when I try to play them it doesnt try to update my Wii. Is Gecko OS the easiest thing for me to download and use? The only things that I put on my Wii is the HBC, DVDx, Bootmii and then some sort of Wii Backup player that game with everything else in this guide

Ok so it says "A : There is a set by step how to with all files in my signature on what to do. (bottom of this post)"

I can't see this link? Basically last night I used the twilight hack to load on the homebrew channel to me 3.4E Wii, I have found what seems like lots of useful information on here so thanks for that its awesome. But I can't find a simple step by step on how to get backups working on here? Sorry if i'm being dense.

Thanks for any replies.

All games (so also originals from the disc channel)?
Or just backups loaded from a (USB) loader / disc channel?

If you updated officially, you have to run the Trucha bug restorer

Ok.... so... if I use bannerbomb to get the homebrew channel... should I have installed DVDx then? I read earlier in this thread that you shouldn't, but that was a long time ago.....

The way it is right now most backups I try freeze up in the first little while... Though I did get Paper Mario Wii working.

As a reference, Gecko doesn't recognise the DVDs...

I'm really having trouble finding a back up loader that works for my wii. It's 4.0U. Do you know of any that are compatible? I have the homebrew channel, and the pre-loader installed BTW.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
