Well, according to the readme, there are at least 27 separate installs/patches involved in this which means there are at least 27 things that could go wrong. Are disc channel loading and the ability to play one modded game a little easier really worth all that?

guess you didnt understand my previous post.. but for small kids it is. especially when nothing else will be added to the wii meaning no wad installing/uninstalling. no messing with launcher or loader settings. no SD cards in the wii. As for my wii, well yeah you're right its pointless since i use usbloader gx.

Well, there is a reason they test it first....

Just install cIOS rev 13a (or maybe a different revision is better for disk channel loading?), trucha patch your system menu IOS with Dop-IOS, and use the IOS-Reload to 249 hack with preloader.

Some games like red steel might not work that way, but at least you don't have to turn every IOS into a cIOS

Also, does BC need to be trucha patched for Gamecube backup loading?
Because I'm pretty sure I have regular BC v5 with Wiigator's cMIOS and they work fine.
 
Just for those of you that are against cioscorp due to IOS changes, you should note that every time you use a backup launcher, you're making the game use IOS249 or some other foreign custom IOS. They're not all designed to run on whatever IOS it's based on, but only a handful don't work when run that way. The same thing can often apply for applications, system menus, etc. Hell, you can mix and match IOS's with homebrew quite frequently and they won't know the difference, although it can be risky.


I'm not trying to make an argument out of this, but a lot of the basis for the argument against cioscorp doesn't make much sense. There was even an article on hackmii explain how stupid the whole multiple IOS system is if you will recall.

http://hackmii.com/2009/02/why-the-wii-wil...etter/#more-463

"Your Wii contains many IOS versions, and the older have never been updated except for security reasons (to fix our exploits). Not that they’ve added many new features, but if you look closely, new IOS features do not operate when you’re playing older games. This includes any updates to the WiiConnect24 downloads code, and even some minor things like the “slot LED blinks when you eject a disc” feature – try it when you’re playing Zelda and you’ll see that it doesn’t work, because it’s using the very old IOS9."

But, that very game can run on IOS249, as well as many other games. And it's not like every IOS is replaced with an IOS36 clone or something else, only a few that just won't work properly with custom IOS features otherwise. (And even then, not a very noticeable difference.)

I'm not saying it's not risky, or that it's worth it or not worth it. But a lot of the argument about compatibility and safety doesn't make sense when you consider just how many things will run on the custom IOS as it is.
 
I installed this on my 3.3u Wii and it only seems to work for some games. So far I've tested it on a few games and here are my results:
Animal Crossing backup works completely.
Metroid original works completely.
Mario Kart backup gives me an "illegal modification" error.
SSBB doesn't even show up as a valid Wii disk.

This is a nice feature because I plan to let other people use my Wii, but it seems like it doesn't work for everything.
 
First post has been updated with a new readme and a compatibility list (it's not finished yet though)

SSBB works fine for me (except for masterpieces, as they use IOS33, which has rev14's DIP)

And GC discs work for me too. Strange...

Do u will fix that issues?? about mario kart and ssbb

see ya da_letter_a

good work
 
Why is there a cMIOSins folder inside? Do I have to do anything with it? And what do I do with the DVDX Fix folder?
 
OK, I give up, I'll never get my GhostBusters backup to run fine. I still need the Eject disc.


I guess I'm busted by the Ghost.

Funny thing thing is that no matter what ppl say, it just won't work.

1.- no it's not downloaded, I ripped it from original disc.

2.- no it's not modified in any way (I have a 1:1 and a scrubbed one and both return freeze on wrist strap screen)

3.- Only NeoGamma boots the game fine without the need of eject trick or pressing buttons like crazy.


Oh well, maybe it's my Wii, I'll just stick to the eject trick.

If Ghostbusters causes so much of a problem, why not just have a NeoGamma forwarder channel? It may not be disc loading, but it's good practice to have for those games that are tricky with cioscorp.

I dont like this version

back to cioscorp v3.2

and the hackmii installer dont work on this version
the hackmii installer has a block on it not to use a
fake signed ios yes so how is that a bug im guessing that is the problem so how could one fix that besides installing the original ios 36 or am i wrong

Little lost, is their any real advantage to having this compared to the fact that Neogamma and everything I have runs just fine?

Nope, this is messy and pointless

It may be messy, but not pointless.

One of the features only it can offer ATM that I know of, is using Brawl+ with a backup copy. You need Gecko OS to use Brawl+, and Gecko OS uses whatever IOS the game requests, thus cioscorp is the only option.

Also, disc channel loading is most easily accomplished through this. Sure it may take a while at first, but you don't need preloader or Menu Patcher once you install it.

Brawl Plus with a backup copy?
Ugg, ok then, next?

cmios is for gc backups
install it if you wanna run em

dvdx fix does what it says ... Fixes dvdx

the two arent mandatory
but i suggest installing the gc one at least

to install use the installers that came with the stuff
 
On my sister's Wii 'Chicken Little' doesn't work.

I don't know if it is worth taking a look at this game to fix it..

But I'm just saying..

(While it is working on my HardModded Wii)
 
mario kart returns 001 error
ghostbusters freezes on wiimote screen

3.2 001 error on MK is gone
3.2 ghostbusters = black screen
3.2 indiana jones SoK = black screen aswell
 
I see on the readme:

Code:
IOS30ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ= IOS33 v2834 with rev14 DIP + ES_Identify Patch

why not simply the same IOS30 with rev7 DIP like the one on the first CIOScorp..?? all it does is to support the SysMenu 3.2, it is not used by any game at all, I'm not saying this can cause troubles, but you did it with IOSes 50-60, why not with IOS30 too..??
