Hacking games stick whenever i pause

[white wolf]

Hi folks. I have a modded wii v4.3 and no matter what game i run on any usb loader whenever i pause the game with the home button or do any action to pause a game like opening a menu in the game etc the game freezes. Lately with my latest game pandoas tower. What can i do to fix this?

No for example in pandoras tower i havent even made it past the first tower because at some random spot it will just freeze and make a EEEEEEEEEEEEEP sound.

I have that problem... is there anyway to fix this?

It does kinda sound like your hdd is going into sleep mode (spinning down). I haven't been fallowing much about wii stuff, but as it was before in almost all cases its a feature you cannot disable.

I was just playing the last story and it happned again, the EEEEEEEEEEP sound and freeze. mind you the last story would stick if i paused it in any way but this is the first time it froze outright while i was playing. Pandoras tower is fun but it dosent look like i will ever finish since i cant even reach the boss of the first tower without a freeze and EEEEEEEEp!

Is their anything i can do at all. I am playing these games with usb loaders.

which cIOS are you using, and with which base IOS?
Some games which make these freezing eeeeep sound are caused by an incorrect base (Monster hunter, Arc Rise Fantasia).
Try using cIOS d2x with base 56.

If it's already what you are using, then I don't know what the problem is.

Thanks for the advice, now sorry i sound like a total idiot but how do i check/change cIOS d2x with base 56?

Which USB Loader are you using?
I don't know the others very well, but you can see it in USB Loader GX.

Load the loader, go to Settings > Credit

At the top right of the screen you will see which cIOS you are using.
You have the slot number, the name, the version/revision, and the used base.

You can change the IOS to use in the Setting > Loader settins > Main/global (should have a number, 222, 223, 224, 249, 250, etc.)

if you followed a recent (and correct) hack guide, you should have:
Slot 249: d2x cIOS v8 with base IOS 56
Slot 250: d2x cIOS v8 with base IOS 57


You can also just use a homebrew which look at your Wii's content and report what you have.

If you don't even konw what cios' you use it might be easiest to simply update with modmii.
It can be used to download only d2x too, if you prefer that.

 

[white wolf]

it says loader version 70
IOS 248 (r21006)
Base IOS58 d2x v6 mload v1.0

 

[Cyan]

you found your problem.
It's using base 58 instead of base56.

version 70? that's a strange number.


Go to settings > Loader settings > search the line with "248" and edit it.
Set "249" instead and save.

Now go back to the credit page, and verify what base it is. if it's base 56, the game should stop doing eeeeeep


Also, you have d2x version 6, you should update to version 8 as it has some bug fixes and new features that the loader is using.
To update the version, you can use modmii.

Thanks for your speedy reply., I will try it out now and post if it works or not.(i really hope it does : ) )

Update: Tried it and game started but a few mins into the game and EEEEEEEEP!!!!

 

[white wolf]

ok now i am just in deep dodo i installed all the version 8 as wad files, then the hb channel wanted to update so i did and it installed boot me as boot 2? now when ever i start up my wii i get a grey screen with about five icons ...Hb etc and i cant click on anything, the wii remote lights just flash

i removed the bootmii folder (saved it on my pc) now the wii starts as normal but the HB chanel will not open(black screen)



OOpps tried to edit but made a mess of the post.

 

[Cyan]

that's strange for the Wii game. you verified that it was base56?


The grey screen with icons should be the Bootmii menu. if you wait 5 seconds it will exit automatically to Wii system menu.
you can define in the ini file located in SD:/bootmii/ how you want to boot your Wii, for example set delay=0 if you don't want to see the bootmii menu on boot, and select what you want to boot (system menu or HBC).

If the HBC doesn't work at all, you can try letter bomb to reinstall the homebrew channel with hackmii installer.
on the bootmii menu in the hackmii installer, select "Prepare SD Card" to write the information to boot the new homebrew channel.
If you had an old HBC and didn't update the files on the SD card, then bootmii@boot2 still try to load the HBC with its old TitleID.

when i try to install the hb chanel with hackmii It says 'FAILED (1110001022)

I'm sorry I don't know what this error is and how to fix it.

I did some search, and someone had the same problem, and here is the solution:

but the file is not available anymore.

Maybe someone else can help you.
