I tried Chicken Shoot(PAL) and the Gravity (PAL) games and both SoftMii and gamma loader, they were both frozen at loader screen. And Bleach Shatterred Blade(NTSC) is frozen while loading. I have tried all method to make sure that my back ups are clean, and no errors. I think it's probably the cIOS version just for those games(I used the most recent one from Waninkoko) but not very sure. Say that cIOS rev 7 doesn't work for those game, and I use ISO patcher for them. How do I find the correct IOS for games that does not work?

Well it might be cool if you would share your solution with us, since people might have similar problems.

I don't want to start a whole new topic for my problem...

But...I'm running RiiSkimod v2 and its wonderful of course...but Bomberman Land, Ninjabread Man, and...WiiMusic all don't load.

The disk is recognised. The icon comes up in the disk channel, when I load the game it ends up going to a blank screen or in Ninjabread's case it gets stuck a loading screen, the loading bar doesn't advance.

Six other games I've backed up do well, but those 3 aren't.

Soo...is there a fix similar to the problem above?

Have you disabled the force disc region in pl0.27?

Well, as far as I know Riiskiimod v2 came with Preloader .25, and I haven't installed softmii yet, which I think comes with Preloader .26

So no..I haven't even installed PL .27 But when I do I'll try that...

I thought I found a solution but it ended up the same. I patched the iso file into IOS 249 like many other games. It didn't work. Weird that both gamma loader and Riiskiimod v2 doesn't work for those games.

Do these two PAL games work with force PAL60?

About the cIOS, ... no i can't tell it without getting angry.

He said Have you disabled the "force disc region" it cames with all version of preloader.

If that's not the case here is a quote from Jimzo:
QUOTE(Jizmo @ Jan 22 2009, 12:47 AM) Here's a bit of info I've found while testing. It appears the Disc Channel forces games no matter what region they are to load with the Consoles Video Settings. This means that PAL games that do not have NTSC/60 video mode built into them will not work. They black screen. The result is the same as if you try to run these games with gamma forcing NTSC, except from Gamma they Green Screen freeze. From Disc Channel they Black Screen freeze on me. They still launch fine from gamma as long as you don't try to force a video rate the game doesn't support though. So far 2 out of 14 PAL games have this issue for me. I completely understand the issue is the lack of video support by the title though, not a problem with this Mod package.

Okay so I tested with PAL 60, it works without color. So here is what i get:
Force NTSC: green screen
Force PAL 60: works, no color
Regular PAL: works but screen flash like crazy.

Game is patched into IOS 249 with disc check for no errors.

Exactly as i expected.

1. Your tv doesn't support PAL video input, that's why it's black & white, and the screen is falling with "regular" PAL. PAL60 has the resolution 480i and runs at 60Hz, with PAL50 has the resolution 576i and runs at 50Hz(that's the reason for the falling)
2. These two games don't contain the code for NTSC video mode, get my toy and try with it:

Softmii still has some issues, Call Of Duty:WaW loads in the disc channel, but when i click start i get a DRE. Then i went to use Gamma and it worked, funny thing is that all my games work except COD:WaW through the disk channel

Is game region = wii region? Does the game work with the Gamma rebooter?

Its an Original Copy of the USA version, and i have a USA wii, so theres no problems, softmii still needs to work some bugs out, the game works perfectly in Gamma

Hmm, you can't really test the Gamma rebooter while you have softmii installed. But the result would be interesting if you want to fix this bug, as the game is launched by the disc channel then, but in a different way.

Well to be specific, i was using the final version of riskmii or w/e it was called, and my game shows that its loaded on the disc channel, then when i click start to play, i get the error, please remove disk and turn off power blah blah, on the other hand when i use gamma the game loads with no problems.
