Use Priiloader or StartPatch to enable WiiWare region free directly on the System Menu

 

[rizzod]

ok well i figured it out. Without using Priiloader or startpatch

MM10 needs the newest version of IOS 56 to run

i realise that, but im talking about region free-ing it.. i fixed it anyway, probably one of the weakest piracy stunts nintendo have pulled.

And the fix was?

Maybe might help out somebody else down the track.

 

[rizzod]

yeah and cost me 1.5mil

He got fined 1.5mil for uploading the game, not sharing the fix

 

[longtom1]

probably just fakesigned the wad or dlc permissions

 

[rizzod]

nope

Running it through wwpacker seemed to work just fine.

Forums are for sharing and helping,
Why the big secret rizzod ?

Interesting...

I'll "acquire" this, and see if I can get it working. If not, I'll fix it, and if this is the case, I'll share the fix.

The OP said he couldn't get it to run in freethewads, he prob just hex edited the region flag, can't remember it off the top of my head but sure you'll find it, or maybe he tried showmiiwads. Dunno what the big secret is, but I look forward to your simple explanation

so you want everyone else to SHARE what they have and help you and you don't care if they get fined but you are not even gona help? thats cool

Title ID is WRXE08.

As for rizzed's secret, there isn't one. The game works fine. I used wad manager to install fine (use cIOS249 rev17 or lower, or rev18 base 38), and then it ran fine. I have 4.2E with priiloader, with "Region Free EVERYTHING" hack enabled.

So FreeTheWads should work fine. If not use wwpacker, or edit the tmd yourself with a hex editor, resign, and repack.

Maybe region changing the wad doesn't work anymore, could be that nintendo did improve their security in that point. But just not doing anything to the wad and using a region free hack for VC/WiiWare(or just everything) is the way i would have expected to work. If the game wasn't NTSC, now we would still get people complaining that it doesn't work.(black&white due to crappy tv)

Pal version made with showmiiwads and ntsc worked fine for me ntsc version. didnt need to dl ios56, think i installed it with band hero and gh5

 

[Bonny]

OMG it's soooo simple: Just use AnyRegionChanger, set your Consoles GameRegion, VideoOutput, SystemRegion and Language to USA, NTSC and English and it will work.

I know, this is a SemiBrick, but who cares?!
