i used this program to compile four games:

luigi's mansion (ntsc)
pikmin (ntsc)
pokemon xd (ntsc)
sonic heroes (ntsc)

when i load the iso's i select to shrink luigi and pikmin and change region to USA. then click create multigame iso, name it, and the output file i get is a .iso file. I loaded it into cubeway+ and it said the region was europe (pal). i used cubbed+ to them check the compressed iso's and they were all ntsc.

i have a ntsc wii and when i burned the multigame iso the gamecube backup launcher was in black and white and all the games were in black and white.

Are you running hardmod or softmod?

softmod through gamecube backup launcher. all single game iso's work.

Well since my Wii is hardmodded, I don't know much about softmods.
But when selecting the game, do you see the real GCOS menu or does the softmod display its own menu?

well, the gamecube backup launcher shows up regularly, the disc starts to spin, then the screen turns black and white, the game text shows up, and the screen keeps shaking up and down. i can just make out the text and I can change the game put when i load it its in black and white and i don't want that.

i think its just because the multigame creater is giving me a pal iso and it doesnt work on my ntsc wii.

That's usually solved by using an RGB scart-cable.

the regular single games work in color i think its because the multigame creator is giving me a pal iso instead of ntsc.

Yeah probably a PAL game. The same thing happened for me when using a NTSC game on an old crappy (PAL) TV.

You've tried it more than once? Try downloading the program again. It works for me all the time with games mixed from different regions.

thanks - I tried that and it did work. However .2 has better compatibility so I would hope something can be done. I feel like it's an easy fix but no one seems to have found it.

Found the solution!

Burn ONE (U) gamecube iso and insert it into the wii - let the backuploader find it then once it registers the game, take it out and replace it with your multi ISO disk. This puts the launcher into NTSC mode and it will work.

Now I'm still trying to figure out if I need to get up each time and manually turn off the wii to play another game or if I can switch it on the fly. My wii controller doesn't even respond when I try to turn off the wii!
