Backup Launcher 0.3 gamma

[junk_man32]

will this block updates when using the disc channel, cuz it said it didnt change the flash of the menu or something

 

[junk_man32]

and another thing, will decrypted games load from the disc channel or no, cuz i just wasited my time then

 

[quim69]

Yes it blocks updates, no it doesn't work with decrypted games.

 

[junk_man32]

Yes it blocks updates, no it doesn't work with decrypted games.

is their a way for me to install the cios but also keep 0.3beta cuz sum games are decrypted and i wanto use that using my decryted games, once i rip em, theyll still be decrypted, i dont have the orignal isos and my internet is slow so

 

[junk_man32]

if i install and replace the ios, will .3 beta still boot patched games

 

[junk_man32]

Also, none of my backups work with the disc channel. It just doesn't recognize the discs. Did I do something wrong or is the support for this feature really that abysmal?

go to the Wiigator's menu and press B, Wii will reboot and now you can load your games from disc channel (only one game for every reboot).

or

(from FAQ)
Q. My patched/decrypted game is not starting with the disc channel - Why?
A. Patched/decrypted games are not support by the disc channel, because there are some parts of the disc removed.

but i'm not sure about that, i've patched Wii Music and it works fine with disc channel.

how???? man i really want to use the new loader but loading it from there doesnt work how did you get it to work, i should try

 

[Defiance]

If I update my Wii with the cIOS installed, will the Backup Loader still work?

What do you mean by only one game for every reboot? Do you mean if I shut the console off and turn it on, it won't recognize the disc again in the disc channel? If so, what would be the point of that? Is there a performance boost of some kind by launching it through the disc channel?

Exactly

it will recognize the disc (if you don't eject game before shut down), but it won't start.

Look at FAQ:

Q: How do I start a game from the disc channel?
A: You need to start Backup Launcher and press button "B" (See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGU52_ttd9o&fmt=18). The NAND flash is not changed for this feature. The support works until you go back to the Wii System Menu or reset the Wii. The feature may not work, if you have Starfall installed.

it's only a gamma version, so we have to wait. Maybe with the next version of BL this boot function will be enhance.

I think this question is for this topic.

May be someone can help?

- Have PAL Wii 3.3e (bought 5 days ago).
- No more updates over inet.
- Installed Homebrew channel v9 beta (Zelda Twiilight Hack).
- Installed Backup Launcher 0.3 gamma
- Ran cIOS Installer (IOS249 v7) - no mistakes.
- Downloaded 2 ISO {Wii}Samba de Amigo[PAL,ENG] and Star Wars The Clone Wars: Lightsaber Duels (seems to be 1:1 while size is 4 Gb)
- Burned "Samba de Amigo" DVD-R on iBase, LG speed 16x. Nero 8.
- Burned "Star Wars The Clone Wars" DVD-R on iBase, LG speed 4x with verification. Nero 8.
- Burned "Star Wars The Clone Wars" DVD-R on iBase, LG speed 1x with verification. Nero 8.
- Ran Backup Launcher 0.3 gamma, with no default config changes, tried to run all 3 DVDs: response is Read Error 324 (the same with rebooting, while rebooting image disk was inside of Wii)
- Installed Gecko Os v 1.7b (didn't touch previously installed IOS249 v7)
- Tried to run all 3 DVDs: response No DVD (first running Gecko Os, then putting DVD)

- Native Wii Sport and Wii Fit load via Backup Launcher and via Gecko Os without problems.

What to do?

I've Pal Wii too (the same configuration) and everything works fine.
Maybe the problem is in games: try to burn them by Imgburn (http://www.imgburn.com/) or try to download another confirmed games eg. Mario Kart, Wii Music, Mario Galaxy.

Hello,
I have a problem, I installed the CIOs and install wiigator to the top of me carrying the games through the channel disc but I have worked only once, I have to install the menu pathcher of waninkoko?
Or perhaps it is a failure of services Wiigator.

I tried Animal Crossing with this and everything seems to work fine, but the load times are kind of annoying, and there's this weird pause after entering/exiting houses and building before you can move your character.

Also, none of my backups work with the disc channel. It just doesn't recognize the discs. Did I do something wrong or is the support for this feature really that abysmal?

you to are just dumb and cant google or read

Also try not to burn at such slow speeds, 1x and 4x isnt really good, your better off 8x-16x

Thanks, I will try it.

yea (sorry, last post in that topic in this thread ;-):
burning memorex dvd-r at highest possible speed works great for me under gamma. burning same discs at any speed never worked under beta, burning same discs at 4x under gamma gives some read errors sporadically.

and im confused here i have all my back ups burnt to sony dvd+r with the book type changed burnt at 2X with zero read problems and errors and a clean burn verification and when burning movies the slower the burn the better the burn whats different about game isos, nothing right its still just an iso so what are you guys talking about i dont get it some say one thing others say another just wanted to say that that is all

as stated elsewhere in this and other threads, burn speed does affect the quality of the finished media, but not always as you might think. The combination of particular brand of media and particular model of drive with particular firmward for that drive will mean that every individual will get different results. Also, some brands are just better than others with more drive makes and models, so memorex discs (which work well with fewer burners and fewer readers) may cause issues that other brands (like sony, fuji, verbatim and so on) won't.

Typically for games and for data discs in general, burning at a very slow speed will introduce MORE errors in a disc, not less, however it depends on the disc, the writer, the format of the disc, and so on. For me, memorex discs never worked with beta, but they do now work with gamma. Also for me, they work perfectly with gamma at highest speed burn, less reliably at lower speed burn.

A different example is my car stereo (18 year old stock clarion cd player in a Saab 9000 CD turbo). If I burn my audio discs at 1x (or as slow as my writer/software will allow, I don't recall what that is right now) I actually get fewer errors towards the outside of the disc (it's quite obvious based on the noise and crap towards the end of cds when burned at high speed, something that affects older audio cd players only).

audio cds play back at 1x. movies might as well, I don't know, but certainly game reading is much more random in nature (rather than sequentially reading the disc progressing from inside to out as with audio discs), so game reading will showcase all kinds of different issues from movie and audio disc reading.

So don't get all caught up on why something works for someone and not someone else. The point of my message was that gamma reads discs much more reliably and gets around errors in the discs much better, because my memorex burns that won't work under beta at all actually work great under gamma, and I know they have errors in the discs so it means that gamma has much improved code for re-trying error laden media.

Cheers

Learn how to use the english language. Sorry I missed an FAQ, I figure I'm allowed to do that once in awhile. I guess I was just a little confused as to what the point of the disc channel functionality is at this time considering you have to load up Backup Launcher to even use it, which then you might as well just launch your game through Backup Launcher. I'm sure the fact that I've gotten everything working to this point by myself, including the time I had to install a fix after updating my Wii, also attributes to the fact that I'm dumb and can't google or read.

I was told that the main difference between beta and this is the cIOS installer. This is not true. I see no difference in code when I look at the cIOS source code. Am I understanding this correctly? What is the difference between beta and this one?

 

[EndlessDiversity]

Does Backup Launcher need OCARINA in order to work?

otherwise i think its a wise idea to remove it from future release. or make it only work with offline play.
i am not sure if its because of ocarina or other cheat device but since Backup Launcher Beta, the number of cheater on online play has increase.

TO ALL OCARINA user: when you don't have tallent or skill to play game don't try to compete with other people online by using cheat. it just so disgracefull and disrespectful! just stick with offline play if you're not good enough or can't accept defeat.

really hate the maker of cheat device, without a doubt they are a smart, but smart in wrong direction. cheater should gone and banned.!

The difference is in ver. number

But really, I'm curious too.

where are you getting the source code from for both versions? Since the old loader loads gamma-only games it shows that the difference is definitely in the Cios... (at least I've heard that the old loader loads gamma-only games.... haven't tried it because my system works and I don't want to mess with it)

 

[jink84]

so when i try to install the cios it tries to use the internet connection for something, i don't have wifi, am i dead in the water?

There is no problem with ocarina. I don't like using cheats to win games, it makes the game no fun. Those are really just basic cheats for health, mp, ammo or whatever though. The fun codes are like the ones in twilight princess or mario galaxy. Yeah wifi codes really aren't fair though.

Does ocarina even work in gamma though? I can't seem to get any codes that I try to work.
