Backup Launcher 0.3 gamma

[cool_boy_mew]

Damn, Captain Rainbow doesn't seem to work, it freeze in the initial loading screen, which is weird because the wiki says it works perfectly =/

Whewww...that was a lot to read. Well, as of now the wife is giving me a lot of @#&$ about the time I've spent getting homebrew, backup chl, etc...but I've come here via youtube...I grabbed these files for the cios installer and backup gamma .3 loader...here's my current situation.

wii at 3.2U with wireless enabled
got backup chl gamma .3 somewheres else along with a different CIOS installer...I've installed that CIOS and the backup chl and I have an actual new backup channel but when I load it either from the main wii page or via homebrew there are no menu items...just a title and a small icon bottom right.

So when I go to try to install the CIOS included in this thread it just doesn't do anything after I press A...just sits there...which probably means I need to uninstall the other CIOS I've already installed right? I read in this thread to use the WAD manager, can anyone spell this out clearer for me?

I've also deleted the backup chl via the wii data management...essentially I want to backout all the previous CIOS/backup chl installs and start with these in this thread...sounds okay? I've burned enough Verbatim DVD-R's that just spinup and do nothing that I figure I've got something wrong with CIOS and/or Backup Channel Gamma .3

Thanks,
Motleypixel

I have installed CIOS36 rev7 successfully but when I open the Backup Launcher it hangs at the initial black screen.

It has "Backup Launcher Gamma Wii Gator" at the top and a little gecko icon at the bottom. Anyone else experience this or heard of this problem?

Yes this is where I'm at now...I'm really having a tough time uninstalling CIOS36 rev7 since the CIOS included in the OP of this thread doesn't want to install...just sits there when I load it and press A to begin the install...and yes, I have wiFi.

OK i have a problem. I have backuplauncher beta and it works fine when i use that for all my games so that is working great. Then I have backuplauncher Gamma which I got so i could load my disc via the disc channel but when i do the hook and it loads the game shows up on the disc channel then when i press start it says disc error eject and reset wii check wii manual and blah blah blah now my question is why does it do this because when i runt he disc just using the loader via backuplauncher gamma it works the only issue is when i use the disc channel hook and then game shows up on the channel it just gets fucked up after i press start any one know what the problem is or how i can fix this?

Wiigator Hello, you begin to remember that you have competition with Softchip but for now is not as functional as the Backup Launcher 0.3 gamma (less evil) but I was soon to be 100% functional, not long ago that we hear from you any update CIOs or no new Backup Launcher.
Publish a new version for Christmas? There are problems of Lately IOS with new games like Animal Crossing or Need For Speed Undercover.

- I didn't start any competition. The Softchip group didn't release any custom DIP module. They are working at a completely different part. They say that they don't want to support backups. It is strange to call this Softchip. It is also strange to use GPLv3 instead of GPLv2.
- I've ported the DIP plugin to IOS50, IOS51, IOS53 and IOS55.
- I don't plan to release anything for christmas.

Competition? I would call it coexistence. About SoftChip's dip: Yes that's too true, even i don't know if xorlax and requiem are still working at the dip, i didn't see them for a while.

Nice to hear you are still working at the backup launching. I guess your ported DIP plugin is really ported and not like the one i used for my dcIOS55 which is just the dip from IOS36?

Do you have any idea how to get the few games which aren't currently working to get to work with one of the backup launchers? I know most of these games work fine with the IOS Version patching, but running them as clean 1:1 copies would still be better.

Sam & Max Season 1 just restarts the wii when you select an episode, even if you installed a backup cIOS as IOS33, do you have any suggestions how to fix it?

Oh, did you notice that a backup disc will not be recognised by the game if ejected once? I guess this could be fixed in the dip.

I still wish i had an answer to my question posted a few post ago though but hopefully ill get an answer some dayjust want to say thanks wiigator for your work.

Ever since I installed this cIOS that came with Gamma, my Wii will frequently lock up while in standby mode. I have to hold down the power button on the console for 5 seconds to get it to shut off before I can turn it back on. Has anyone else had this problem or a problem similar?

EDIT: I'm on a Wii 3.3U (Pre-Oct 23 update).

Why don't you disable the update search function(forget the name of it) and get into the REAL standby mode? The other standby mode eats up to 10 Watts.

I always plug out my wii. wiiconnect24 is off.
the problem is when you turn off the wii, light is still green, not red (or orange if you have wiiconnect24 ON).

 

[Lenerdosy]

Whenever I try to load a game I get DVD Read Error (324)

Any idea what that is?

You mean WiiConnect 24? I don't care about 10 watts. I leave my computer on all day and all night and I'm sure it uses up a lot more wattage than that.

The point is that I never had this problem until I installed the cIOS for this Gamma edition, and it happens maybe 3-4 times a week (about every other day). I also installed Waninkoko's cIOS36 rev 7 last night to see if that would fix it but this morning it was locked up again.

Does anyone have any helpful information, or are there any others who are experiencing this?

You're probably using the wrong type of dvd. I kept getting that error until I switched to Memorex DVD+R.

Thanks for this magnificent piece of software.

Will be possible for a future version to enable 480 progressive mode for games that originally doesn't support this mode?
