GameCube Backup Launcher 0.1 Xi

[Golfman560]

Thats because the older version had a different svename. The newer one uses the correct official name. There's a tutorial somewhere that lets you change the names.

Edit: FINALLY got Action Replay working!

i was playing resident evil code veronica and stopped because I could not switch discs and now I try the new version (backup launcher xi) and i am with another problem, the save file does not appear and i can't load the game

OMG hope you can convert it!
Here is the link to the tutorial.
I really wanna know if you can really switch Discs! Did you burn the 2 discs on the same multigame DVDR?

I have got an official MC and I can´t do that for fixing saves...

Would you be able to use this version to load a GC-based emulator? Like, if you followed the following format:

1. You downloaded the emulator (ex. mupen64gc.dol)
2. You make it into a bootable GC disc with BootableDisc.
3. You take the Rom files (ex. Mario.z64, Yoshi.z64, and Kirby.z64) and burn them all to a dvd image. (iso) using an image recorder in a burning program (ex. Nero)
4. You take both ISO files (The emulator one and the one with the ROMs), and you put them together with GCOS MultiGame.

I'm trying it now (on a rewritable dvd) and I'll post my findings.

Merge the 2 discs into a multigame disc with GCOS. Also, it can take a gcm or iso or both and output an iso still for easy burning.

I held off on the theta version and decided to dive in with this one. I've exhausted all the readme's and tutorials I could find, plus a couple of my own ideas, now I'm looking for help. Here's the rundown:

I hadn't put DVDx on before so I started there, in the advanced install IOS249 didn't show.
Did some checking and found out that it was because I was on 3.3U.
Downloaded the customIOS37 and the downgrader by Waninkoko.
Successfully downgraded to 3.2U.
Installed DVDx with advanced installation, IOS249 showed this time, so I installed it.
ran miospatcher, ended with an error - bad hash
tried miospatcher again with rev7 selected and with rev4 selected, same results.
tried Waninkokos cMIOS installer - gave an error message -1017 while installing.

End result, gamecube backup launcher isn't working yet... Any ideas?

Is there a proper guide for installing this? This will be the first version of the GC backup launcher that I install, and the instructions for the old version are vague at best.

As far as I can tell, I'd put the "miospatcher" and "rungcbackup" folders in the "Apps" folder of my SD card so that they can be run from the Homebrew Channel. Does the folder "gcbackup0.1" - the folder that contains stuff like "dolloader", "dvdtest", etc - go on the root of my SD card?

That's my best guess, but I want to make sure I'm right before I do anything.

One other quick question - can this launcher run both PAL and NTSC games on any Wii, ie. if I were to download an NTSC game would it play on my PAL Wii?

Put the actual MIOS files on your SD card, there's some links for MIOS v4 and v8 here

Download the file from the first page, inside that archive there is another archive. The only files you need are in that second archive. The dolloader and dvdtest folders are the source files and you don't need them.

Would you be able to use this version to load a GC-based emulator? Like, if you followed the following format:

1. You downloaded the emulator (ex. mupen64gc.dol)
2. You make it into a bootable GC disc with BootableDisc.
3. You take the Rom files (ex. Mario.z64, Yoshi.z64, and Kirby.z64) and burn them all to a dvd image. (iso) using an image recorder in a burning program (ex. Nero)

FAIL! I tried making a 'bootable' GC disc, but it won't work. It doesn't create an acurate GC disc image. My only other hope is to maybe take a GC image file I have already have (I think maybe I'll try the GC-Linux tools one), and replace the dol. I'll update.

Thanks for the quick reply. Ran through that way, but still got a bad hash result (the message was from SD and not from network this time, so it did detect the files)

I'm wondering if despite downgrading there is something left behind that is causing an issue.

You could be using a "bad" SD card. My Cannon SD card that I have, the Wii hates and it gets everything to fail, but my 2gb something works.

Thanks for the help. What about my other question: Will my PAL Wii play NTSC games with this launcher?

How did you get Action Reply Working? I've tried everything i can think of,

Anways i have MIOSv4 install, and exactly got Action reply Backup loading up, and i am starting the Action Replay by pressing B so i can load Different dvd's,

When it ask me to switch disk, and i stick in the Backup it always goes to a Black screen, already tried this with a few different games?

So if you have a different method of getting it to work, that would be greatly appreciated

 

[seangibbz]

Sandisk's are great!

 

[Golfman560]

I haven't tried getting Action Replay to work with backups (Since all mine are multi-game and I'm not sure howd they'd launch) however launching it with B and then putting in retail discs works.
