Hacking Metroid prime trillogy disc update

[wolfmanz51]

i used the 4.1 updater but it still wants me to update? what should i do?

Are you talking about the retail disc? I load my retail copy through a backup loader, works like a charm.

Use an update blocker, like Preloader. Or a backup/usb launcher.

Or load it in GeckoOS and let it install whatever IOS it wants to use.

 

[EnigmaXtreme]

Well thats just great, ive just ordered it from the states. Should I use startpatch to block updates?

 

[FenrirWolf]

Run it in GeckoOS and it should install whatever IOS you might be missing. It didn't prompt an update on my console so I know it doesn't have anything greater than 4.1

Has anyone had any trouble launching MP3? I can't launch it from my retail disc or my hd. It gives an eject disc and consult manual error.

It is trying to update your news/weather channels.... (ie, the American ones). One option is to let it run.. you are already at a (much) newer firmware version, so you'll just get the dupe channels. It is only risky if the out-of-region update is newer than your own.

Or, just launch it with some homebrew - gecko os etc

Yay it has begun...

Anyone that wants to get it working with USB Loaders, load the game and create save first. Then, use alt .dol with rs5mp1_p.dol, rs5mp2_p.dol, and rs5mp3_p.dol.

Have you tested with cIOS 222 installed as 37 merge 36 and Block IOS Reload ON? I don't actually have the game...just curious.

 

[OneUp]

No, but I tried that with the Japanese version, and it just froze there. I know this method works though. (Not too sure about save games part because I started with disc and played some first)

I'm curious. Is there any loader out there with support for multiple alt-dol files?

What is the gameID ?

I'm currently on a Homebrew 4.0u Wii and I inserted the disc and it didn't ask me to update to 4.1u. I figured it would but the game loaded just fine. Is this normal?

Game plays just fine, figured I'd have to boot it with a boot loader program of some kind to get around the update...

Hi, what i would like to know is if it is a dual layer disc or a normal single layer? Thanks.

 

[FenrirWolf]

It's dual layered.

That's why I said set it to disc because it let's you choose which one to boot.

Could someone list the steps in detail or give me a link? I'm new at this.
