Homebrew To anyone who had trouble playing Metroid Prime Trilogy - and the multiplayer - .. I FOUND THE FIX!

Okay, so ive been trying to get this game to work for a while now, have never been able to get the multiplayer working and the singleplayer games are buggy depending on the rom or settings. Anyways, im using an NTSC WBFS rom of Metroid Prime Trilogy on USBLoaderGX, all i did to get it to work (and the multilplayer!) is i changed the DOL settings to default in the game load settings. When loading the game. yes it fails to load and has a black screen as many of u have had. What i did then is pressed the reset button, and the game loaded fully functional and even the multiplayer loads and works perfect

All MPT needs is a modern loader and cIOS and the settings need to be set to save to real NAND, not emulated. There should be no extra steps required.

For those who dont succeed with that, what i did should work, but definitely try this first ^

Check the disc image and make sure it's valid or try re-ripping it? There's no reason it shouldn't work.

Yeah neither of these things (hitting reset or setting not to use emulated NAND) worked. I'm loading MPT through WiiFlow and experiencing the issue where MP1 and MP2 load and run fine but MP3 gets stuck at a black screen and my WiiMote shuts down and won't reconnect.

Hello.

I have also Troubles with the NTSC Version of the Triology on my PAL Wii.I can not get work Part 3.
The main Thing as already mentioned is to turn of the emuNAND Save Option.
So Part 1 and 2 work now but Part 3 stays on the Loading Screen/Black Screen and disconnected Wii Motion Controller,as you described.

USBLoader GX v3.0 r1272
Configurable USBLoader Mod v70 r78.11
WiiFlow Lite Mod v5.4.1

An other Thing is the PAL Version of it.All 3 Parts works perfect on all 3 Loaders without any Change of the Settings except to turn of the emuNAND Save Option.

I will try it further if you like but at the Moment unfortunately I have no Idea for the NTSC Version,except maybe the ISO is "corrupt"...
Thank you.

Thank you for this Advise.

I have already read about this Method(s) and especially Metroid Prime Trilogy.
There are many Threads on GBAtemp and Reddit about it
I have tried it with different Combinations in USBLoader GX and Configurable USBLoader.

The two Issues are stuck on the Loading Screen or continues to a Black Screen.With disconnected Wii Motion Controller.But that is nothing to do I think because under normal Game Loading Part 1+2 the LEDs goes out and on again.

Yes,I also "suspect" the NTSC ISO,because only Part 3 has Issues and the PAL Copy works.
I will check it too.

Thank you again for your Help.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Addition:

Yes,definitive the NTSC ISO is not ok.

New NTSC Game/ISO and it works with all 3 Loaders.
Without any Changes of the Settings,except to turn of the emuNAND Save Option.

Thank you.
