Mirror: http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=4757

In the source archive there are the binaries as archive included. You will need to first to extract gcbackup0.1_v7.tgz and then gcbackup0.1_theta.tgz.

Not all games are working and it still contains bugs. If you have a problem don't send me a message. Just post in the forum. You will get a faster answer.

Don't start complaining that a game is not working. You have the source code and can fix the bug. I do this in my free time and I don't get paid for it.

There is a video showing it in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Xak8qdMKbU&fmt=18

It is prohibited to use any of the software to illegally copy games, they are intended only to create and play legal backups of games that you own. In some countries or regions it is still illegal to make copies of games that you own, check with your local authorities if you are unsure. I cannot be held responsible for any misuse of these programs. The use of any of the above software is done so at your own risk. If you mess something up or anything undesirable (ie: loss of warranty, brick, lawsuits, jailtime) happens because of any of these programs, it is your own fault. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!

Short Instructions:
1. Run miospatcher
2. Press X (only one time!), if you want to use Wii Backup Launcher or Wii disc channel to start.
3. Press A
4. Run rungcbackup
5. Press A and play your game

This application theoretical can brick your Wii and make it unusable. It was written to be safe as possible. If something fails it should only have effect on the GameCube mode. You should still be able to use Wii mode and repair it by installing a MIOS with a WAD installer.

Why can't you, you know, read the topic? You're just one click away of finding it out by yourself.

What ? It doesn't make a sense. :wacko:

If you already got a modchip then you don't need it because your modchip will run GameCube backup. This is for non modchip Wii only.

You use the wrong loader
You have to use GC backup Launcher Xi
On your multigame press Z on the 2nd disc, then boot the 1st one

[quote name='RockmanForte' post='1768777' date='Feb 11 2009, 08:38 PM']Does anyone know if SONY HANDYCAM MINI DVD-R is ok? I am really worry because of the word "HANDYCAM" labels on the discs. It doesn't matter --- or does it ?[/quote]
Not 100% sure but I do belive that they are the same disc...
as I have used regular DVD9 in my SONY HANDYCAM.

I ran the mios patcher and ran a backup of Mario Sunshine and the Gamecube Backup Launcher said

"Failed to read DVD 345"

I then removed the patch and got rid of the two apps from my card
