Hacking Black ops freezing on load screen

[kharn101]

Hi,
I just got black ops, run the game, it starts up and brings me to the loading screen and freezes while saying loading.
I am using firm ios 222, i updated to the latest hermes 5.1. I am using an external hd (fat-32)
I am using cfg-loade, please help! Also, thanks Pip for the last time around for helping me

Different solutions seem to apply for different people. I fixed the problem myself with 224, base 57.

hey thanks for the input, i may be a newb for asking this question.
I have ios222 installed, woudn't installing 249 create problems.
Anyway i used cIOS Installer Xr20b, and selected 249 and it froze.
it this because i have 222? Thanks guys!

Installing 224 through hermes 5.1 seems the way to go. You say you get a freeze... You mean during the installation of the ios? If so: try unhooking GC pads and cards from your Wii first. That should help.

I had the same issue. I got around it by using Waninkoko's rev20 cIOS installer, used 57 as a base and put it in slot 247. Load game in cfg using that slot, and I have no more problems with the loading freeze.

222 shouldn't intefere with 249 installing, so not sure what you problem is there...

CFG loader did't work for the Multiplayer with 224-mload.( Base 57 )

With Uloader 5.1 NO PROBLEM. cios 224-57. Multiplayer etc works.

I really hope CFG loader gets updated soon.
But as a workaround uloader works.

Yep, Hermes 5.1 with 224 works for me too but like most I get freezes during multiplayer.

hmm well, i haven't played a lot yet online... but it seems to be the only way for me to play online.
Offline I can achieve with base 249 base57.

No problem at all with online multiplayer.

i am lost, with hermes cios 5.1, ios 224 isn't an option?

 

[kharn101]

okay so i am a fool, sorry for confusing you guys....i loaded cIOS Installer Xr20b,
i pressed up (for some reason i thought i could only default install 249) I picked 222, then selected IOS57 v5918 and installed it on 250. Is this right?

 

[kharn101]

i am on 4.2u btw....so i tried it again and it didn't work

, i even selected 224 in the loader, it said file not found please install...

 

[kharn101]

That should work. Just change the settings in your USB loader so that it loads the game with IOS 250 then it should work fine.

i ran it with config, selected 250, it stated that it wasn't installed?wth is going on?

 

[kharn101]

I can only confirm that the following combinations don't work for me

GX with waninkoko's (rev19/Cant remember which base, removed it to go to 20)
GX with waninkoko's (rev20/base 56)
GX with hermes v4 (37+38 merge)
CFG with waninkoko's (rev19/Cant remember which base, removed it to go to 20)
CFG with waninkoko's (rev20/base 56)
CFG with hermes v4 (37+38 merge)
CFG with hermes v5 (default base, not sure what that is, by this stage i'd about given up)
coudlnt' try uloader as I'm using fat32

This was all with the most common NTSC iso,all combinations froze on the "Loading ..." screen with varying delays in how long it took for the HDD light to stop blinking.

ULoader with Hermes v5 base 57 worked good for me - also in the CFG!
But, in the game I'm at a point that doesn't allow me to jump over a little wall. For a half second it shows me "Press A" but then I just can't do that. In this part a timer is running down and I restarted the level already 5 times. Always the same ... *Bummer*
Couldn't enter the Multiplayer, but Zombie mode works fine!

So with GX which cios should I use?

 

[kharn101]

yea....i am still lost!
