Hacking Need help with launching some backup games!

Jessey1995 · Jul 8, 2010

Hi,

I'm trying to launch some games on a Wii that has been downgraded to 3.6 (I think), it has the homebrew channel and IOS 61. I have been able to launch backup games with WiiGator and originals with Gecko OS. The problem is that when it comes to launching newer games such as NSMB Wii and Mario Galaxy 2, Wii Gator gives me the #002 error and Gamma gives me the #001 error. I've tried playing around with the settings and I don't want to mess around with the firmware, IOS, etc... what I'm actually looking for is a backup loader in .DOL format for the homebrew channel that can bypass #001 and #002. BTW, I've been searching for hours now and I can't find one -.-

Install & Patch IOS36 using MMM or DOP-mii.

Install ciosx rev 19 as BASE38.

Use Neogamma R9 to play wii games.

Thanks, but I'm not sure if I understand you. The Wii once had the genuine 4.1 U Firmware, but I had to downgrade it to 3.6 or 3.2 or something like that to install the HomeBrew channel, preloader and backup laucher which runs perfect with the firmware I ended up with after installing all those things. The problem is, I can only run the older Wii games (most of the games made in 2009 and before) and not the new backups such as New Super Mario Bros Wii and Mario Galaxy 2.

Today I installed a version of NeoGamma, but it's giving me an error (#001, unauthorized device detected) and it says it's best to use it with R17 and that mine is R10. I think I recall reading somewhere that NeoGamma R4 was alright for Rev10. It's kinda confusing :S, but I'll look into what you gave me.

I don't know which firmware it is, it's something like 3.2U.

I used this guide to downgrade the Wii... http://www.ps3news.com/forums/wii-news/ult...usb-107159.html
I followed the online instructions. If someone knows of another backup loader that I can put in my HomeBrew apps directory then that'd be great because I'd really prefer to stay away from playing around with the firmware and other stuff that could brick the Wii or make it unusable -.-

EDIT: Home Brew Channel tells me I'm using IOS61, after doing some research I have found that IOS56 is recommended for NSMB Wii and Mario Galaxy 2, plus it will give me better support for some loaders. I've installed it and WiiGator is still giving me the #002 error and NeoGamma is still giving me the #001 error. :S

Okay... since all you can tell me is "read up" then I have, seeing as no one could point me in the right direction, great help for a new person on your website...
Anyway, after reading, I now know that the game needs IOS 56 to run, right? My backup launcher is outdated, therefore I need a newer one... the newer one requires a higher cIos, mine is only Rev10, I need Rev17 for the best compatibility, the newest one is Rev19, that one would probably be be better to go with... I'm now updating Rev10 (Wanioko) to a higher one but the network installation gets stuck when I try to update it.

I'm using this one... Wanioko's updater with TeknoConsales.es http://gbatemp.net/t212089-ciosx-rev19-released?&st=0

EDIT: I found an offline one http://www.wiihacks.com/wiihacks-member-su...-waninkoko.html

update the IOS's on your system with DOP-MII (latest IOS 56 is needed for SMG2 etc)

http://wehackwii.pbworks.com/DOP-Mii
http://wiibrew.org/wiki/IOS_History

update your cIOS from rev 10 to 17 or 19

http://gbatemp.net/t179085-9658-9658-9658-...-9668-9668-9668

update your backuploader (Neogamma R9 beta)

http://gbatemp.net/t219243-neogamma-r9-beta-test

and you should be good tot go

one thing I don't get is how you should have downgraded from 4.1 to 3.x to install HB
it can be installed from 4.1 without any probs.

Thanks, I'll try now

I've already installed IOS56 with the WAD manager, so I don't think I need to use DOP for it.
BTW, I had it installed on 4.1, then I needed to downgrade to get the backup launcher going.

elmariachi · Jul 10, 2010

well in that case you don't need DOP for IOS 56, but it doesn't harm to update the rest of your IOS's either with DOP.
that way you are up to date for all the latest games

Thanks for that, very helpful of you

.
But I'm having some problems with the network installation of cIos Rev19. The network initializes properly and downloads Content #20, Content #22, etc... but it stops at Content #05, I tried leaving it for 10 minutes but it still hadn't finished. BTW, I've used up all my internet and it's now shaped, meaning it's very slow and pages take forever to load, but the new round of usage comes back in three days so I'll try it then and get back to this thread because the connection now is too slow

BTW, like I said before, I've installed IOS 56 (as a .wad) and I have NeoGamma R9, so the cIos R17 is all I need

Jessey1995 · Jul 14, 2010

Bump.
Thanks, I updated it, everything seems to be working well.
