Hacking How do I bypass Metafortress anti-modification on Kirby's Adventure Wii (PAL)?

[ExFabian]

I've tried to fix this problem for 2 days, but no result. Every time I load the game from an usb loader, the game freezes on a black screen after loading up a save file. I did some research, and found out it's actually because of the Metafortress anti-modification implemented into the game. I looked into multiple threads on this site, but nothing worked. This is what I tried up until now:
-Tried using SD (Fat32) on Wiiflow, every other game works normally aside from Kirby's Adventure Wii
-Disabled every patch
-Put a gameconfig.txt file on my sd root made to bypass the protection
-Switched to Configurable Usb Loader and disabled every patch
-Switched to a usb flash drive I had lying around (Fat32) with USB Loader GX, it detects it but game doesn't appear
-Tried the same with CFG, still doesn't detect game
-Tried NeoGamma with both usb and SD, doesn't detect games (and not even the flash drive)
Is there any way I haven't tried that works?

Latest version of Wiiflow lite you mean, right?

Have you tried ios250 in the game settings?

Edit: try the latest gx, it could also possibly be a bad rip of the game

Hello,

Just a little info:

see this page (if it helps) == <https://gbatemp.net/threads/kirbys-return-to-dream-land-white-screen.462119/page-2

test with configurable loader v70 and see the result (configurable loader reads games on SD)

Nevermind! I got the game to show up on USB Loader GX (by putting my game file into a folder named "wbfs") and turned all the global settings to off! Thanks for the support!

So, finally, to avoid this protection, you only need to "not use patch"? And from which IOS did you launch it,250?

Basically, although I still don't know why it doesn't work with other loaders
Game IOS is set to Use global
