Before you flame me, I want you to know that I have searched through the forum for an answer and I have used Google to try to find an answer to this. I've looked for quite a while now.
This is the story, because my Wii firmware was on 3.4E, I used this guide to downgrade my Wii to 3.2E and install the Backup launcher as well. Now I got a copy of Bully:Scholarship Edition, but before I burnt it to a disc, I checked the compatibility. On WikiTemp here, it says that Bully works on Backup Launcher v0.3 Gamma both PAL and NTSC(my copy is PAL). I also checked here as well. That Wiki says that Bully is playable if it is decrypted. I think decrypted or what other people sometimes called it patched means the ISO is 3.99GB.
So I decided to burn. I burnt with IMGBurn at 4x on a blank DVD-R I had on a laptop. Once the burn was completed, I launched the game using the Backup launcher, it flashes a green list, but then stayed a black/blank screen after. I decided to try and boot it from the disc channel through the backup launcher. So I did that, and when I opened the disc channel it detected and recognised the disc as a Wii disc I'm assuming. The banner/animation/title showed up on the disc channel but when I pressed on start to start the game, the disc, I'm assuming, starts the game but then stays on a black/blank screen. I decided to burn at another speed...so did it at 8x. Same result.
A couple days later I found some Verbatims 50 DVD-R packs...so I got them. I decided to burn Bully one more time. This time, I burnt it in a desktop burner, after read somewhere that it has helped some people, at 4x on the Verbatim DVD-R. Then again, same result.
I want to know the reason why this is happening and what I should do. I really would want to get the backup launcher working.
