Hello,
first i want to thank everyone who has contributed information ,instructions,files,and compatibility lists in regards to the latest releases of the backup loaders. Since I have gained a lot from this site I would like to give back what i have found trying this stuff out. installed the cios using wadmanager, dvdx after , then the backup loader, and gecko os channel. No problems. I'd like to share my results and what I used. I also like to include the fact that I did at one point or still do own these games,because im using my old save files to test them.
I am using a Sony DRU-830A usb DVD+- R /RW/RAM
burning with imgburn booktype set to DVD-ROM
all games are NTSC-U on a NTSC-U wii, 3.3
And using standard AV cables.
All color issues are fixed with GeckoOS
Super Paper Mario
I used a Imation DVD+RW , burned at 2.4x.
slow loading in the movie intro . works 100% with my completed save file , starting from scratch i kept freezing after opening all the doors in the mansion. I fixed this by playing through that part of the level with waninkokos backup loader ,then saving, and continuing gameplay afterwards using geckoOS . Again, a 100% save file does not give this error in either loader.
Super Mario Sluggers
again, Imation DVD+RW , burned at 2.4x
4100 error on waninkokos. didnt test with gecko os (wasnt out yet :-P)
i think i forgot to set the booktype on that one
Super Mario Galaxy
Imation DVD+RW , burned at 2.4 x i formatted the one i used for super mario sluggers
Slow loading intro, runs GREAT. I started a luigi game (already got 120 stars with mario)
No freezing at all. Except this morning, somewere in the third observatory, but i think its because i left the wii on all night .
Resetted / reloaded game, no problems . Boots up and plays in waninkokos loader, using geckoOS for color.
Mario Kart Wii
Imation DVD+RW , 2.4x
slow loading in intro, course selection screen.
loads long before every race, no problems with gameplay.
didnt test with wifi.
seems to crash after every cup in mirror mode, or 50cc karts and bikes.
Wario Land Shake it
Pleomax dvd+r, set to dvd-rom , burned at 3x.
Works with waninkokos backup loader using battery trick.
Hangs at green screen with GeckoOS.
