OK, i have a NTSC-U Wii and i updated to the firmware 3.0 before i got my wiikey installed.
I've got the Update 1.9b working and i updated and i got the 1.3 config disc working.
When i put in a backup copy of metroid prime 3, it either does not see the disk and the big question mark pops up or it says there has been a problem and i need to eject the disc and restart the console.
For gamecube games, i put one in and my wii sees it as a gamecube game but when i click start, my wii resets its self.
THen i start the GCOS that comes with the wiikey 1.3 config disk and then i put in my gamecube game and no matter what button i press the screen turns green or it just shows files like "boot.dol" and i click on it and it just freezes on the GCOS backround and does nothing.

I am new to this so please help me and sorry if this has allready been addressed.

I am burning on Memorex DVD+R's and DVD-RW's and i don't think its the media because the config disks work on them.

Thank you

I've been burning them all at 4x, though i have not tried 8x yet, so i might try it.
and i might get some verbatim dvd-r soon and see if they work better

But does anyone know what it means whey your wii comes up and says there is an error and i need to eject the disk and restart?

I've got Gamecube games working allright, but when i put in Metroid 3 in it sees it and show the logo, but when i hit start, it just goes black and stays there.

it think it is disc problems
I guess memorex DVDs suck, so anyone know if sony DVD-R's are any good?

    I think Game streaming should work like this.... Local Hardware able the run the game fine, game engine and common assets stored locally, all FMV and music and textures could be streaming

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Some temporary storage

    also @BigOnYa im making some progress on my gdevelop project, implemented various mechanics

    They went all in on streaming, should have been more of a hybrid approach

    Or free government supplied high speed internet be nice also. Like Obama care. Xdqwerty that's cool, its time consuming but rewarding once done or playable, to see what you've made from scratch. Animations take forever, but worth it.

    @BigOnYa, although the bullets are a bit buggy

    @BigOnYa,
    and the visual aspect of the game is quite crude (the sprite that looks best is that of the protagonist just because he is a stickman with sunglasses)

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    There is a bullets behaviour you assign to your character, that makes the code easier, under "behaviours"
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    i meant that when the character is pointing to the right, the bullets spawn where they should, but when he is on the right, they move to the right but the spawn point is incorrect
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Itch.io has lots of free assets also. Under the bullets behavior tab, there is a "rotate bullets" option, can try that. Or in the code can try
    - fire bullet Player.X(PlayerDirection)

    YEa gotta after a while, looking at code for long periods will bug your eyes.

    That's cool tho, I'm proud of you going back to it, not giving up. It is difficult at first to learn, but fun once you get the hang of it. I think I've watched every tutorial video there is, but I still struggle sometimes to get stuff to work right. But gotta keep trying dif things, and eventually you will get it right.
