I figure that I won't be the last with this problem. So, I might as just start the thread.

Using the Wii Backup Launcher I keep getting a green screen.

When using the USBloader it gives you a black screen.

Hopefully someone smarter and obviously more talented than myself can figure out what needs to be done.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: I finally was able to get it to play via a burned disc using preloader & CIOSCorp. I used this guide http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=139700 with some of the files from this guide http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/777675 because the previous guide didn't have them anymore.

Not smart enough/haven't read up enough to actually know what all I did, but after everything I gave up because it didn't seem to work... then when I looked back, the game was loading in the menu. So, good luck.

Tried 13A, but still a no go. I get an 002 error, then when I try to use USB GX with the 002 fix applied to the game, I get a black screen.

It works fine on cios 13a with USB GX loader. with cios 13b is when you get a black screen.

which version of Loader GX do you have ? in the settings for the game is "002 fix" on or off ? did you do anything to the iso (brickblock / patch / etc) ?

rev 498 of loader GX and I turned on the 002 fix. I have the video mode on "system default" and I didn't do anything to the iso.

Please test if the game is a 002b game:
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?download=6188

Requirement is still having cIOSrev13a installed, and report the results with each test. Why do I always have to ask for this? Is the idea of a new game being a 002b game so surprising?

nearly every game out now doesn't work with the usbL...not a good sign.

Which ones do not work?

PS: To test if a game works at all, YOU HAVE TO USE DISC REGION VIDEO MODE especially for import games.

I was going to say the same thing - Indy works fine on USB Loader GX.

Hi use ios rev 13a and configurable usb loader. This combo works with indy game. You just have to turn wii off and on again to play another game rather than soft reset.
i was getting black or green screen then freeze with ios rev 10 but when i installed rev 13a worked first time. I tried other usb loaders but most failed and configurable usb loader was the only one that worked
so give it a go.

works with rev13a and SDUSBloader; same as Indy actually.

I created a menu channel but get a 002 error from that, only works when launched from the loader.

Menu channel? If you have the source of it, you only need to add the 002fix to it, it's one line. Show the the part of the source where the game is actually started, and i tell you where and how to add the 002fix.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze

    Booo.

    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
