I think there's some option in DM(L) Booter about not initializing the drive or something, does that help at all?

Now that you mention it, there was someone saying that happened to them after swapping out their drive or going to a different Wii with a different drive or something. I didn't think too much of it at the time but there might be something to that that could be fixed in DM itself.

Nope I have tried no disc patch still to no luck but its okay happy to see people benefit from such a great application.

 

[kaulsuraj]

Also I do have dml working tho idk what is the problem

 

[Maxternal]

Ok, I was talking about the "Booter Drive Reset" option, but one way or another, at least DML is working for you. By all means if it's working with some variation of the software, it should be a simple fix once Crediar finds it in the code.

I tested the Widescreen setting with two games.
- Mario sunshine looks great
- Starfox Adventure has no visible changes (maybe the game is already in 16:9? I tested only from Disc)

Does the patching work for retail discs? That would be awesome

 

[Cyan]

I don't know, I tested it only on retail
maybe it's like the others settings and they are not used at all.
But I always play starfox from disc as it need audio streaming.

I'll try my other games.


Edit:
Mario sunshine works from iso, but Paper mario always boot the disc in the drive.
I don't know if it's a problem from GX, I should try other loaders.

no

 

[Maxternal]

hmm, it WOULD be cool, though.

What's the point of hacking Star Fox into widescreen, isn't there a widescreen option in the menu already

I edited my long, descriptive post again.
I just realized that the loader has to report what config version it's trying to use and that it was DM that was seeing the wrong version and deciding to just boot from a disk so my theories that some loaders could work with v2.2 just by changing a configuration were incorrect. Only v2.1 would work without an update (but with the NoDisk setting being interpreted as the Widescreen setting) because of it's incorrect version number.

At least now it looks like GX and CFG have updated I don't think WiiFlow has yet and DM(L) Booter r28 and up should work.

EDIT : Okay, now WiiFlow has been, too. I don't follow PostLoader too much so I don't know about that one.

has usb loader gx been updated for 2.2 yet?

 

[Maxternal]

has usb loader gx been updated for 2.2 yet?

ok well im using 2.2v2 and the latest usb loader gx 1197.. has anyone noticed that the button combo reset doesnt work anymore? at least in mario sunshine

If your loader supports the padhook patch, enable it, AngryGeek. Without it, the reset combo doesn't work in DM 2.2 anymore(disabled by default in DM)

yeah i've noticed it's not working anyrmore. i've tryed the combo reset on a few games in my collection and got the same result (wouldn't reset)

edit : after seeing daxtsu's post i've turned the padhook option on and it worked.

thanks ur right i did have to enable the pad hook patch.. but why would they disable it by default seems kinda odd...lol

 

[Maxternal]

hmm, I was always wondering exactly what "padhook" meant. Now I know.

My best guess is it causes issues with certain games.
