does this apply to all mod chips?^
I burnt WSR and gave it to my friend and he said it didnt work. I downloaded the rar, extracted it, got the 4.7gb iso and just hit burn and put it on a SONY DVD-R disc thats 4.7 GB. Did i forget any steps?(i didnt use the other like the ws_wsr_ntsc.r00, r01, r02,etc. Did i need to do anything with these files)
thanks
Like the guy said earlier, you need to use Alt-Dol method with WSR, and ys, even with some modchips you need to do this. it is simple to use, first your friend should get himself a decent backup loader, regardless if he as modchip or softmod, the latest revision of Neogamma is ideal. Then, load Neogamma (whilst the WSR disc is in the drive of course), an when it boots up, select config options, and look for the option to use Alt Dol,then set that option to use 'from disc'.
Next, load DVD through Neogamma and when the gam first boots up it'll show you the Motion Plus Video. you have to sit through this, and not skip the video. When it as finished your Wii will restart.
Finally, run Neogamma again and go back into the config options, and make sure the Alt Dol. option is now set to 'off'. Go back to Neogamma's main menu and boot the DVD, it'll now run and play fine.
Note : You only have to do the above once, the game will work fine from then on.
The same method should be followed for Red Steel 2.
Oh, and as for the original topic, stick with soft mod, there isn't any game I have had a problem running. 95% will work without doing anything other than loading them through Neogamma (presuming the softmod is done right of course) The remaining few titles just need certain options enabled in Neogamma or updated the IOS you are using (rare you'll need to do this, (especially if you select cIOSx Rev19 with a base of 37. I know the suggested base is 57 for the extra USB functions it provides (I think), but with a base of 37, you'll be able to run MH3 and guitar Hero/ERock band games without an issue) the exception being the 2 alt dol. titles mentioned above, but after doing the steps I listed they too will run fine from then on. This is IMHO.
And dont forget to burn all your Wii backups at 2 or 4 speed.
Good Luck with it .. :>
