Hacking Backup Loader 0.3 Compatibility Thread

[bdbrain]

Sorry if these are dupes. Working with the 0.3 beta loader for me so far:

*Endless Ocean *- NTSC - Patched/Decrypted with backup-creator - Works perfectly! Fast load times. No problems. *This one always froze with previous loaders.
*Madden 09 All Play* - NTSC - Patched/Decrypted with backup-creator - Works perfectly! Fast load times. No problems. *This one always froze with previous loaders.
*Warioware Smooth Moves* - NTSC - 1:1 (not patched) - Works well. Intro video lags a little, but much better than before. Fast game load times.

Not working for me so far:
*Star Wars: The Force Unleahed - NTSC - Patched/Decrypted with backup-creator. Gives error message before loading initial strap warning screen. This disc worked for me with 0.1.
*The Simpsons Game* - NTSC - Patched/Decrypted with backup-creator - Gives error message after loading initial strap warning screen. This disc worked for me with 0.1.
*Spongebob Atlantis Squarepantis* - NTSC - Patched/Decrypted with backup-creator - Gives error message after loading initial strap warning screen. This worked with 0.1.


Trying to get the rest of my games backed up with dvd dumper over the wifi. As you guys know, it takes a few hours per game. Will add further on my other games when I can. I will also try burning the patched games that didn't work with the 1:1 isos that I dumped to see if that helps matters.

Cheers and props to the gator, wanin, and everyone involved with this project. You are doing us gamers with children who like to scratch up discs a HUGE service with this loader.

Sigh...Madden NFL 08 [NTSC] doesn't work patched or unpatched, it's rediculous. I'm not even gonna waste anymore time on this game.

Has anyone tried to get past the point on Super Paper Mario that made it freeze in the last loader? I got the game to boot but haven't started it yet, I want to know if it's worth starting the game yet or not. I'm not gonna bother if I can't actually complete the game due to it freezing.

Just go test it and update the compatibility wiki
http://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/index.php/Backup_Launcher_v3

as you can see on the wiki it seems to freeze at some point.

DBZ: Budokai Tenkaichi 3 - I can't get the controller to work.


Does anybody know why my controller doesn't work with DBZ:BT3?

don't know about DBZ: Budokai Tenkaichi 3
but DBZ: Budokai Tenkaich 2 ntsc (patched) works, has choppy intro though gameplay seems fine as far as i can tell AND it's an "old game"(released in north america November 19, 2006) plus i saw someone post Twilight Princess(patched i believe) worked... lets try some more "old games"

DBZ: Budokai Tenkaich 2 ntsc (patched) works - has choppy intro though gameplay seems fine as far as i can tell

PS - did you try FORCE NTSC setting?

Nope, It was caused by the GC controllers, when I plugged them out everything worked fine.
Intro movie stutters few secs, but after then it's fine.
I'm gonna try GH:3 And Mario Party 8 now

 

[tlangford]

Are we noticing a difference between the speed of patched and 1:1 games?

im wondering whether its worth reburning 1:1 versions of the games I have.

I love when people say to burn at a low speed... that's what gives more errors! The discs are MEANT to be burnt at a certain speed... if your disc says 16x, burn at 16x... if your disc says 2.4x, burn at 2.4x!

Stop telling everyone to burn at low speeds... that's whats causing most of the disc read errors!

Hmm...as a precaution I have been burning at 8x. I use memorex 16X DVD+R media...very reliable...I don't fiddle with the booktype yet the Wii is happy with it.
I did burn a coaster one time. And do you know why? Because I used the computer so much while burning that I got a buffer underrun...and the "safeburn" feature kicked in.
I think THAT's the main reason some people get the read errors. Not due to speed but safeburn.

Sorry if someone already confirmed this

have you played a level or two? or just booted it? anyone got it working...

 

[skedone]

i will test it later (de blob) i only have patched version tho and original bought disk

would it be that the ones that say no codes found could be a ocarina error so turn that of in options (i never have it on)

no change here without ocarina... I can rarely enter a level, the "EJECT disc" message appears...

i assume you mean the issue on Chapter 2-2, if thats the case it was fixed on the last loader with the cIOS_fix.wad
im currently, on 3-1 with no issues at all so far

I can't even enter a level and you played two, your game is NTSC right? What media are you using?

I cannot get Mario Galaxy to work,

I am not getting any error messages though, what happens is when I start the backup loader and it tells me about forcing NTSC, Pal 60 etc - I get a message telling me that it cannot find any SC codes and then it locks up on that screen.

This is happenning with a good number of the games that I have tried now,

My Wii is a PAL and Mario Galaxy is NTSC so I though I would try and force the NTSC but still get the same issue.

anyone know how to solve?

also is there anyway to have the new wii back uploader on the channels screen rather than me having to go into homebrew and select it that way?

Thanks

 

[Prakilint]

Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity (PAL) (Decrypted): Works perfectly, no stuttering movies/FMVs.
Dairantou Smash Brothers X (NTSC-J) (DVD5) (Not Decrypted): Seems to work perfectly.

 

[LegendaryXM90]

Has anyone gotten the first Dragon History scenario to work on an NTSC DBZ:BT3?

I keep getting disc errors, please eject and power off. This makes that mode totally unplayable.

My copy was 1:1.
