Hacking Backup Loader 0.3 Compatibility Thread

[db87]

Did make two backups of Endless Ocean PAL: a 1:1 copy and a decrypted one.
Both confirmed working flawlessly with Backup Loader 0.3.

Console: EU PAL, 3.2E

About to test a backup of Mario Galaxy. It's a 1:1 copy, but I am worried about people saying it will auto install and update. Is this true? Thanks.

Still no luck here getting Manhunt 2 to run on a PAL Wii. It's NTSC patched to PAL with the unblurred patch installed too. Says it should work on the compatibility list, but it freezes after the intro and menus soon as it gets to the gameplay with a disc cannot be read error.
Try the unpatched/clean iso - maybe the patch was bad.

The copy launcher blocks updates, you will have no problems playing it.

sav_ : 1:1 or Decrypted ? Did you tried both versions ? And also, the cios read retry?

Decrypted. I will try the 1:1 later on, since I'm out of Dvd's. I use Verbatim DVD+R, at DVD-Rom booktype.

I have a CIOS with read-retry fix and launcher 0.3

according to the wiki (http://wiki.gbatemp.net/wiki/index.php/Backup_Launcher_v3#L), a 1:1 should not work though. I've tried two different "backups", both of them don't work. Perhaps the PAL version isn't working

With Topspin 3, the game crashes when loading a game. It just hangs for some reason (while loading and displaying the correct position of the controller). Also decrypted.

There are a lot of issues with the Wiki. If someone has the time, please and I mean please, try to delete copies.

Trauma Center: Second Opinion has 3 copies of itself. But the game has worked fine for the majority of the people I've spoken to. These people make a mistake somewhere down the line with how they burn are over-zealous and jump to the Wiki. Perhaps add more columns for "Yes" and "No" if they launched. That and there needs to be a clear distinction between PAL/US/NA. There are a lot of PAL/US together but then I see PAL and US of the same game separated.

It's just a cluster mess, with like a few shining examples of how the wiki should be done here and there.

Agree, I've thought about only post the 100% (near to it, acceptable ones) working titles, since there much playing factors in those not working. The not working titles shouldn't be posted until somekind of absolute concensus, like the "Sky Crawlers" and "Tenchu 4" not working at 100% =(. Just my opinion.

If I install the 'retry read disc' fix thing will it write over the cIOS I need to run the backup loader 0.3?

Thanks.

There floating a ready to burn ISO of the uncensored version, even it was native PAL. It worked just fine on my NTSC Wii, just patched it with WiiBrickBlocker.

Did make two backups of Mario Galaxy PAL

Mario Galaxy PAL -decrypted one:
Disc got detected and starts to load but in a "Mario theme" I'm getting a message of a Disc read error.
(backup Launcher 0.1 didn't detected the disc at all...)

Mario Galaxy PAL -1:1 copy:
Works perfect. Can also confirm that there is no 'auto update' going on when using Backup Loader 0.3.

Console: EU PAL, 3.2E

TV Show Game King (NTSC) - 1:1

Game boots and was playable up until the "spin the wheel" portion of a regular game when I got an error that reads:

"(611):ASprite.cpp
assert failed frame >= 0 && frame < m_d
ata->m_frame count"

This is the first time I've encountered an error other than the disc read error one previously mentioned. Maybe I got a bad rip...?
