I updated IOS53 using DOP-IOS today, shouldn't I at least be able to load this game? I get the green screen and a re-boot.

Do you have a modchip?

Nope, complete softmod. I thought some softmodders were getting to play for a short time.

Thanks, that's what i was afraid the answer would be.
Since the retail game will run from a cIOS it looks like it almost positively anti piracy within the game and not checks against it launching from a cIOS, tho I wonder if there is some IOS reloading going on at boot, which even tho the game attempts to be launched with a cIOS it actually ends up running on IOS53.
Just had a thought, may or may not have been brought up before. Do any of the WADS or other "normal" files files on your disc (kongsnutz) look different (size, or content (if you can read that) than your other games?
I would think that a 1:1 copy would have anything that the original copy would have, including the MD5. Nintendo is still making the same kinds of DVD's.jakejm79 said:

Nah there's nothing that stands out.
My thoughts:
There is nothing us small time modders can do.
The game obviously has some sort of check in the running processes of the games engine.
We have to wait till one of the big guys (some from here) can get a hold of the full ISO and then see what happens.
If anyone is interested in the update partition of the 1:1 copy. PM ME
MD5 is a data integrity validation mechanism, just like SFV and is used in similar ways.
MD5 data is most commonly distributed as separate .md5 files alongside the main file download files and can be used to check whether the download was complete and whether the data remained uncorrupted during the download process.
MD5 data is created by a algorithm that examines the original file and creates a short(-ish) checksum data string out of the original file's characteristics. When the file and the .md5 file are downloaded, the .md5 file can be used with a specific MD5 file checker application to check whether the downloaded file is identical to the original file. If not, it typically means that the download is not complete or that the downloaded file was corrupted during the data transfer.
I've been curious if this game could run if you had a cioscorp install, but launched it with Gecko OS.
I'm not sure why I think such a thing is possible, but maybe someone should give it a try. Maybe it would bypass some of the checks.

Basically the md5 of (NOT in) a copy should match the md5 of the original, other wise it's corrupt.mopar4u said:No idea what this means.......

I'm aware of what a md5 is, its normally a 32 digit hex and 2 identical files will share the same hash. I know that a dvd will not have a md5 since it isn't a file, my question was more to do with the way the LG drives read the wii disc (not having one I don't know) and seeing if it reads just raw data or if can read the file structure, in theory if it could read the file structure then you could possibly get the md5 for all the files on the original disc (without ripping/extracting them) and compare them to the files extracted from a ripped 1:1 iso and see if any files were different. But since the LG drive only dumps the raw data then it doesn't matter.
anyone notice that generic wii patcher doesnt find 002 error? clearly you will get the 002 if you load it with softchip, i haven't used gwp that much but it should find it
