ok i read the first 4 pages and the last page of this topic, i gather that through installing this "driver" pack for rock band instruments, i can play GH1-4 backup with my Rock Band instruments? Sorry i get confused when its called "Rock Band Loader" not sure if it means it loads other instruments to play RB with or loads RB instruments to play GH with. Thanks in advance for any clarity!!

This is just the combination of a cIOS based on IOS37(which has the required drivers integrated) and a loader which uses this cIOS. If you can use the instruments with your original games, then you can use them with backups too. If you can't use the instuments with the original games, you need a very experienced coder and a few weeks or months to patch the games to use the instruments.

Basically don't mess with it unless you are an experienced coder? which is fine with me. i have patience to wait for the developers to do their magic!!

alright thankyou very much for your help. It seems that the multi cios installer that i was using did not have the CIOS37 with the custom DIP and once i installed that it worked like wonderfully.

I just somehow came across the wrong version of multicios installer, one more quick question i replaced black hole sun with Back in black from the AC/DC track pack and at the end of the song the video just keeps playing and does not allow me to press any buttons, i had to power the wii down.

I don't know the game, but i guess you have to look out for the length of the videos/songs you replace

I posted on the scorehero thread, but I'll ask again, what files did you replace.

I got this working to play rock band, and the AC/DC game with my wii rock band 2 drum set. Is there a way to play guitar hero world tour with my Rock Band 2 drums? They are supposed to be compatible, but when i load up the game with gamma, or softchip, the drumset is not recognized.

thoughts/ideas?

They said it was gonna be compatible, but they lied

. The only way for it to be recognized would be modifying the disc and I have no clue where you would start this...

QUOTE(halo4life @ Dec 23 2008, 11:03 AM) Sorry, I'm sure this has been asked, but should I get this if I have WiiGator's 0.3 gamma loader?

If you want to play Rock Band with the USB instruments, yes.

read this whole thread and followed all directions, but still having problems. i have installed the rockband loader channel and softchip. i installed ios37 as 232. here's what happens: when i try to load my backup with the rockband channel, it reads the disc that it is rockband, but i get a "can't access partition" error. when i load the game with gamma loader it loads but only the mic will work. do i need to patch the backup or something to load with softchip? any help is appreciated.
p.s. have homebrew 1.01 and all my other backups work perfectly with gamma loader

Did you decrypt the disc? For SoftChip you need a 1:1 copy.

So if you patch as 249, would this work with Backup Launcher gamma or must I install as 232 for softchip?

Overall, I'm confused... O_O

i just tried this earlier i was thinking the same thing....

if you install the softchip loader CIOS37 rev 7 as IOS249 instead of IOS232 it WILL work with 0.3 gamma loader.

just make sure you uninstall wiigators CIOS first...!
