Impressive work datel

 

[.TakaM]

and yup, freeloader.. glad to see it's working, not sure if I'll end up with one

 

[psykopat]

i believe that the freeloader works perfectly.
But... we don't have any proof that this wii is really pal.. i prefer to see the console's firmware before any demo ^^

 

[hanndn]

amazing

Shows the region as PAL

 

[raulpica]

Great, it even excludes updates from running!

It seems a better method than Trucha-Signing and VideoModePatching every game

This until Nintendo patches it

 

[Jokiz]

Oh! Someone HAS to dump it!

 

[buggy]

yum yum yum

 

[kedest]

Nice. Hopes this gets dumped soon

 

[bailli]

Hm I want to know how they get SSBB to work without the IOS updates...

Trucha signer + Patcher seems the better solution to me since you only need to do this once.
With Freeloader every time you want to play you need to swap discs...

 

[EarthBound]

yum yum yum

 

[kedest]

Well trucha signed discs make use of an error in the wii's firmware. that can easily be patched by nintendo.
but perhaps this freeloader is more futureproof

 

[markongc]

how about naruto ex 2??
is there any proof that it works...otherwise is better the trucha method

It doesn't work with modchips and copied games? This... this... just FAILS.

Maybe editing Freeloader with Trucha Signer?

 

[tomqman]

il try and dump it 2morrow

and have a look whats in it

 

[Marticuno]

Wow, cool.
Yeah you do that tomqman, I want the dump

(Does a dump of the freeloader work with chips? It seems to good to be true, someone please help a noob out

)

(Does a dump of the freeloader work with chips?)

How should we know if there's not a dump yet?
But I see no reason why it wouldn't work...

So , this uses some kind of exploit in the Wii firmware trying to load some GC game , but it fails and the freeloader code manipulates the wiisystem ram thus disabling regionprotection and making NTSC copies boot. hm. Now If I knew a shop were to buy this.

 

[Navarre]

I wonder if its the same as the original Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Copies work with the chip in but the original wont?
