Hacking Gamecube backup launcher

[vixez]

Hey everyone,
I'm trying to run Super Mario Sunshine, it's in the compatible list, but i can't get it to run.
I installed the mIOS that came with the package and did an offline install (v8).
Then I run the launcher, insert the game and press A on the GC controller, like it sasy in the readme.
I hear the disc spinning and then it gives me a 263 error, what's causing this?

I burned my ISO on a Verbatim DVD-R.
The filelength of my game is 1,459,978,240 bytes, so that's correct, right?
It burned at 4x. I tried 2,4x but it said during the burning in the log it couldn't do that, so it burned at 4x.

You're gonna want to remove the link you posted as it leads to a site containing illegal content.

Try patching the cMIOS via network install if possible.

 

[vixez]

Okay, removed.

I can't access the inernet on my Wii atm, I'm using SD.

Also, it helps to make sure that you have the disc inserted into the wii before starting your loader. When I run gamecube backups, I normally insert the disc while on the system menu and wait for the disc channel to see the disc before starting the GC Backup Launcher.

you want to press B for loading using the patched MIOS and make sure your using the more recent version i think its 0.3 or maybe 0.2 im not on the wii right now and cant say for sure but SMS definitly runs i have the NTSC running on my PAL wii

 

[vixez]

I just tried leaving the dsic and and running it, didn't work.
Btw, I'm doing it via homebrew channel, it's not a backup launcher channel.

 

[retKHAAAN]

Shouldn't have to load that game with patched MIOS. Boots fine for me pressing A on WiiGator's GC Backup Launcher 0.1 Xi.

What exactly is the error message you are getting?

 

[vixez]

I tried holding b on the gc controller, still a green screen after the error :

Failed to read DVD 263
Error 0x53000 Ready

Can I uninstall the patched MIOS?

 

[retKHAAAN]

Do you see the launcher menu and then press your button or are you not seeing that? It should show you a menu with your game title and list the button options for different boot methods.

Also, which GC Backup Launcher are you using? Is it specifically for gamecube or are you using the one that's just called Backup Launcher 0.3?

 

[vixez]

No, I don't.

I'm using v2 by Wiigator.

It looks like this

Where the black is on the left, appears the error.

 

[retKHAAAN]

okay

I know you said you tried this already but please humor me.

Shutdown your system
Turn it back on
insert your game disc
wait to see a reaction from the disc channel
go to HBC and load the launcher
press A when prompted to select a load option

 

[vixez]

I did exactly what you said, but the problem is, I don't gt prompted anything.
I just load the launcher, and it automatically starts reading the disc, then the error appears, green screen and the wii restarts.

 

[retKHAAAN]

Do you have DVDX installed? If not, install it and try again. You can find it in the hackmii installer that installs HBC and BootMii.

 

[vixez]

Yes, it's already isntalled,
If it'd follow what they say here:
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=144835
would that get me somehwere?

 

[retKHAAAN]

I wouldn't recommend a downgrade of any sort.

Hunt down WiiGators Gamecube Backup Launcher 0.1 Xi
and try that before doing anything risky like a downgrade

Also, try reburning your disc if 0.1 Xi doesn't work. Make sure you are burning Image to Disc and not just burning it to disc as a file.

 

[vixez]

I burend image to disc

X1 gives me a 186 error ?
The disc ain't found

 

[retKHAAAN]

At this point, all I can recommend to you is to make sure you have a cIOS installed and make sure you run the cMIOS patcher. Both are required to run GC backups. If you are unable to connect your wii to the internet, you need to google an offline install method. There is no reason why this shouldn't be working if you've done this and everything else that was suggested.

 

[vixez]

I found it!
I had a cIOS without backup support.
I installed waninkoko's cIOS r7 and placed IOS36-64-v1042.wad on the root of the SD.
Installed it, restart, run backup launcher and TADA!

Dude, I owe you BIG TIME!

Now I need to find a gamecube memory card

 

[retKHAAAN]

Careful when getting the memory card. The 3rd party cards suck. I had to hunt down an official Nintendo card and it cost me like $20USD. I'd check ebay.

 

[vixez]

I'll go for amazon.co.uk, this one:

It has quite good reviews
