Here are some notes for the not yet released 0.3 gamma:
You can use same features in the planed new version as in the old version. WiiShizzza is working on a new graphic. The menu looks different, but is similar to the old version.
The default setting are changed:
- GC pad hook
- Ocarina is disabled
You can change this (each time before starting a game). I decided to use this as default setting for higher game compatibility. When you press "B" the System Menu is started and you can start 1:1 backups from the disc channel. The system menu is not changed in the flash. You can't directly start it after power on. I decided not to patch the files in the flash, because there is a much higher risk for bricking the Wii. If you have Starfall installed this may not work, because it tries to patch something, which was already patched by Starfall. I don't have Starfall installed, so I didn't tested it.
It will use new cIOS for IOS249.
I improved speed for decrypted games. There are more direct DMA transfers possible. Currently decrypted games seem to be a little bit faster. Waninkoko is working on a speed improvement, which is also for 1:1 backups. I will wait until he has finished it.
The default settings for System Menu are:
- Region free
- Update check is disabled, because updating from wrong region will lead to a brick. I don't have tried to update from a burned disc. I don't know if this is safe in general when using the correct region.
The fixes for PAL cheat codes should be included, I don't have tested this yet. The cheat system and PAL/NTSC are not within my focus. I will only fix something here, if problems are reported from 30+ users with many different DVD media and there is no opposite report.
It is possible that all games, which worked with 0.1, are working with 0.3 gamma. So you will have the speed of 0.3 beta and the compatiblity of 0.1 and 0.3 added. There are reports that games are not working, which were reported to work 10+ times. This must be due to bad disc burn. I think it is now the highest compatibilty possible with cIOS based on IOS36. I assume all games using IOS30 and higher will work (expect games which are not released now and will use IOS higher than IOS36).

I really hope that what he is waiting on waninkoko for is the same thing waninkoko came on and said he had finished last night.... if thats the case then the wait might be over today.... yeah right i can dream cant i?

Holy Jesus! I love you guys! Keep up the great job!
Edit: Why not calling the new version 0.4 instead of 0.3 gamma? 0.4 would sound more 7337
Faster loading for decrypted games...
Does anybody KNOW if the on the fly decryption the Wii does on originals and 1:1 copies, is executed in software or in hardware? Does the Wii have special chips for decrypting, which do nothing else than decryption?

Why a video? You don't believe 0.1 and 0.3 combined compatibility with slightly improved loading times? I do believe him. I think he has enough testers. If not he could nearly PM everbody posting on the backuplauncher threads and pick the testers himself.

Sorry, i did not think about this, because to me it's useless at the moment. When i got it right, the backuplauncher has to be started, then you press B and finally you can load the game from disc channel. Just start the launcher and press A to start is the way i prefer when i have these 2 choices.
@ WiiGator
Hi,
Is it possible to create Backup Launcher that will have support for loading backup images directly from SDHC (Class 6) cards at 6X speed or even faster? Or that's something that we can forget.
Best regards.

SDHC Class 6 does not mean 6x reading speed. It means 6 MB/s write speed GUARANTEED, they can be faster, and reading speed is usally faster.
6x speed with sd cards and 6x speed with dvs is not the same, but nearly. Sure is: SDHC Class 6 cards can be read at least as fast as the wii can read dvds. Questions are: Does the Wii support full reading speed, or is the sd slot limeted to USB1.1 reading speed too? And is it possible to use sd reading commands inside the IOS where it would be needed for something like this?
