Wii #XXXX - Metroid: Other M (USA)

[Omega_2]

One more nub question while I start this 5-12 hour download;
4.2U wii
cIOS rev20 at ios249, base 57
I have an odd feeling I'm missing something, and I'm sure this +r dl will end up being a coaster regardless...
I never do anything to the installer (altering what 'ios to use' or 'base') other than selecting 'network install'.

I can confirm this working flawlessly on 222 using WiiFlow.

Should work fine with cIOS rev 20 base 57, thats what mine is set to and it runs flawlessly with the latest USBloaderGX

 

[Teep]

Would a disc boot also use rev 20 with the same base?

I have kind of a weird problem I haven't seen anyone else post about. My game is hanging during the opening cutscene, about a second after Samus drops from the baby metroid and Mother Brain kills it. Everyone else talks about freezing during the baby cry cutscene but I can't make it there.

I've used basically every combination of USB loaders and custom IOSes, starting with Waninkoko's cIOSrev17 on 249 up to rev20 and now Hermes'cIOS222 (and 223 for good measure). I also downloaded Configurable USB Loader and WiiFlow and messed with the settings of all 3 of these loaders, turning the 002 fix on and off, clearing patches, and everything else. I'm on 4.1U on a near-launch Wii and I'm still able to play both disc games and other USB games fine. I'm at the end of my rope for trying to solve this, any ideas? Maybe just a bad .iso?

Currently at an area that I'm stuck at, much like a previous poster some pages back.

Spoiler

I've gone around the tree, and through the middle (this same area has a missile upgrade on a lower platform as you are going up it). Now I'm at the bottom where I'm stuck in 1st-person mode and locked in place. I assume I'm supposed to examine something, but I looked all over, and could not find anything to examine. I can see a door on the far side, and a purple-ish sphere above me.

There are some little bugs moving, examine them, they're on the floor somewhere.

I need help too!

Spoiler

After the fight with that purple bird like monster, when you find one of the crew members dead, you're locked in FP mode. What do I have to examine?

Really good game.
Actually the first metroid that got me so hooked. Must be that sexy voice that makes me feel naked.

 

[Szalkow]

The abundance of cutscenes and the focus on personalities makes it feel very much like what I expect a Metroid anime to be like.

I can confirm that IOS249 rev17 works, I've been playing on an old version of CoverFlow with rev17 and Error 002 Fix enabled and no issues so far.

You like bad souless voice acting that sounds like a machine is doing the work?

 

[Omega_2]

Would a disc boot also use rev 20 with the same base?

By now, I would assume we can, but...

@tonyclone likely bad iso

@Gaydrian LOL

Works on my 3.2E Wii with Wiikey 1 running it trough Gecko OS 1.9.3.1. Used a Verbatim DVD+R DL disc with layerbreak 2084960. So happy! I was super worried that it wouldn't work.

Same here

and I'm sure I remember my Wii wouldnt read the DL disk for Smash Bros. Maybe I should go back and try that again.

Anyone know how to easily remove the update partition? On the disk channel it says system update and I dont trust my kids not to click it. Brick Blocker says it is not a valid Wii iso

I'm about 2 hours in and I've just climbed a spiral ramp and dropped down the center and now I can't get into the side scroll mode. I can look around in 1st person and access the menu, but when a turn the wii remote side ways the screen turns green and never switches back to the side view.

Am I missing an ios? I'm booting off disc, set the layer break as recommended in this thread, and I have a mod chip. I didn't allow updates to run from the disc, but I manually installed IOS58-64-v6175.wad, cIOS223[37-38]-v4.wad, IOS61-v5405.wad

 

[Nuke85]

Can any one report if this works on wiikey 2?

Thanks in advance if anyone can report on this. Let me know what disks you used etc..

I think this is the first time somebody has an issue that late in the game. Maybe some cutscene starts at that point which is somehow broken?

could just be another with a bad iso.
btw, when we get to the part where we can load it via dvd+r dl successfully, wake me up. I'll be in my office.

I just tried it loading through NeoGamma and had the same problem. I've tried 2 different media with the same image source. I'm going to try another image source but that will take some time to finish.

 

[Gaiaknight]

you have to search for the right thing in First person to continue the game this happens alot in the game nothing is wrong with the iso.

I'll answer my own question:

Spoiler

There's green blood on the ground before the vehicle, that's what needs to be examined

I thought that was a pretty easy boss fight :/. I'm not even sure that's a boss fight.
