Still havent found and answer,

I want to patch the ISO (I dont want to extract the main.dol!) directly. Is that possible and if yes what is the offset where I need to change the value? Because it is not found at 4e 80 00 20 (of course because I am not opening the main.dol directly)

thanks!

Has anybody tried (or succeeded) in getting this to run off a WBFS SD?

It works, but you need a Alt. dol

I have read it on a dutch forum, but I can't remember the site. Just put a ALT. dol in the root of the SD, the other things you'll need to figure it out by yourself

No, you'll need to extract the main.dol, and edit that one. Why don't you want to extract it btw? There's no reason not to do it so...

I dont want to extract the main.dol! So, you don't want to patch the ISO?? Sorry, but you have to extract the ISO in Wiiscrubber. It's the only way. Unless someone makes a program for it.

TIP: Once it's extracted and opened in a Hexeditor, save it straight away. Something to main(patched).dol so you don't loose the original unpatched one. Just for safe keeping. Then you can edit it. And you have to go to the address line, stated in the first post.

NB: When I searched for, 04 1A F7 10 it couldn't find it. The address line is the safest.

I have it working now using the Gecko 1.9.2b and the cheat file.

I have Wii System Menu 4.2E Official
WiiKey v2
I instaleld HBC today using BannerBomb for 4.2 (very easy and quick)
I then Placed the Gecko192b folder from the zip folder onto the SD card in the root:\Apps folder (Gecko Link on First Page)
I created a folder on the SD Root called codes
I placed the smnp01.gct file in the codes folder (link on first page)
I started the HBC
Started Gecko
Went to Config to ensure SD Cheats was on
Launched Game

Been running for over 15min now no issues.

I am using the non patched version of the game.

I like the fact that you do nto have to mess with IOS files or the like, nor do you have to install anything other than the HBC

I did have issues using NeoGamma R8Beta7. It woudl get detected in the HBC, I would click load and then get a black screen and all I could do is eject the deisc and power off. I tried it with several different game disc (Mario Kart, NSMB, Zelda, and a few more but same result.

Tried it via bannerbomb and also had the same result.

NeoGamma R8Beta7 is the KIDDIE! Serious props & thanx to the guys of WiiPower! =]

Also, WBFS Manager 3.0 gets an honourable mention for it's sheer slickness & ease in formatting the USB Stick, moving the game onto the stick & compressing it down to about 350MB! =]

Couldn't have been easier - although I wish I hadn't wasted about 4 or 5 DVD-Rs before the lightbulb went on. =]

Also, FYI: There is currently NO CHANCE of you (TiNY) getting a disk-based solution for your NSMB backup. But soon... =]

How does NeoGamma work anyway?

I have the same question...
I tried to run NeoGamma via Homebrew channel, but it I am just getting black screen.

Update: I got NeoGamma working now after following A, B and C from this guide: http://www.wiihacks.com/recommended-faqs-g...stem-menus.html
Please note I have 4.2E system.

P.S. It looks like NSMB does work via NeoGamma after all.
Are you using a softmod? If so, I take it you're not running from disc.

Sorry, I didn't put my full specs....
My system is:
Wii PAL 4.2E
Wiikey v1 flashed with firmware 1.9s
I had to follow A,B,C step from the guide mentioned before to get NeoGamma R8 beta 7 working for me. After that I have NeoGamma working. And I am able to run NSMB from DVD now. So it's runnig from the DVD, but only through NeoGamma (it gives me "Press reset .... " message if I insert DVD before I start NeoGamma)

Yeah, that's the thing, we already know it works from NeoGamma with a hardmod. It doesn't work with a Softmod via disc. Which is what we're trying to figure out

Yep. I would say the whole topic is so much confusing... Mostly because there are a lot of different firmware versions, different modchips, different DVD images and etc. That's why it's a bit hard to pick the right solution.
