Hacking How to get Metroid other M working

[Amarok]

Since I had to read every single post on the thread by WiiPower without any results and got tired of it, I decided to post my workaround to get Metroid other M working (for me).

1. Did it freeze for you at the Baby's Cry Cutscene? If it freezed on other cutscene, please describe it here.
2. Which filesystem did you use? Or did you use a disc?
3. Which cIOS did you try? Please only post the cIOS your loader actually used. There's no point in writing about Hermes and Waninkoko in CFG for example, if you have both installed, but don't tell CFG correctly to use the one or the other.
4. Which loader did you use? Which revision?
5. Which release did you use?
6. Did you remove the update partition manually? If yes, how?
7. Please describe the issue: Does it with the picture on screen? Black screen? "An error occurred"?

1. NO, GAME WORKS FINE
2. WBFS
3. cIOS56rev20 @ 249
4. USB Loader GX rev 935
5. Metroid.Other.M.USA.REAL.PROPER.REPACK.WII-BiOSHOCK
6. No
7. Game works fine.

What did I do?

-WiiScrubber
-Open bs-met.iso
-Rightclick Partition 0 ===>> Delete Partition
-WBFS Manager 3.0.1 ===>> Options >> Advanced >> Partitions to keep: Only Game Partition
-Add to Drive

I did not scrub the image with the scrub option





I would like people to confirm this.

I only transferred it using WBFS-Backup-Manager (keeping only the Game Partition)
Loaded it in cfg-USB-Loader. Have played half thru 'Sector 1', so Baby Cry isn't an issue here.
I use 4.3E on my Wii using Waninkoko's Updater (had to reinstall BootMii and Priiloader using the Homebrew channel, but works).

You already posted this in WiiPowers thread HERE
People probably feel one thread is enough and they can reply there if they want?

There was no problem with playing this game

It was only a bad dump that everyone DL with the baby cry scene freeze and wii power already posted how to check that...

and the people that didnt use rev17+ or v4+ to dump the game.

Hello I am having trouble adding metroid other M into my WBFS manager 3.0, it says completed entry and it takes up the harddrive space but it dosent show up in left tab where it shows all the games. What am I doing wrong here? WBFS never game me trouble before, btw my iso is the same as yours Metroid.Other.M.USA.REAL.PROPER.REPACK.WII-BiOSHOCK

Thanks in advance.
