Hacking NeoGamma R9 beta

[WiiPower]

Ok, i think you need to understand a few things. You are doing way too much testing!

If a game works in NeoGamma beta 2x, it will most likely work in the latest version as well. If a game works with disabled reloader, it will most likely work with enabled or forced reloader as well.

NeoGamma's GC loader is an improved version of WiiGator's loader ==> if a game works WiiGator's loader, it should work in NeoGamma as well, if not, it's a serious bug. But you have to consider the different boot methods:
WiiGator press A == NeoGamma with video mode disc AND without reloader
WiiGator press start no help in for example 007.

In short, after confirming that your new disc worked in the latest NeoGamma without reloader, you should have stopped your testing.

About the other loaders: I don't think any of them includes an own GC loader, they all boot GC games the same way NeoGamma does with GC mode set to MIOS. They will play most games, but only if you have a cMIOS with an integrated loader installed. The cMIOS i linked in the 1st post, doesn't have a loader integrated.

Star Fox Assault (NTSC-J) boots and loads, but all the text is garbled; as if Japanese fonts were not loaded. Furigana for Japanese text appears to load, however. This problem happens on NeoGamma and WiiGator's loader.

What's Furigana? I can try to get the language patching for wii games to work in GC games, but don't get your hopes too high. I have looked at it once, and it seemed to work differently(=i won't be able to figure it out) from the wii it does for wii games. Also i'm just blindly guess that the problem is a result of a wrong language setting.

What system menu region do you have?

English region here. Also for furigana:

I will look into this problem. Maybe it does write somewhere into memory what region the wii is, because i don't know how a GC game would read the data from the nand, because it doesn't even know what nand is.

But don't expect too much, i really only know very little about this stuff.

I don't get why changing the video mode (in GC options) stopped the game from loading. When I changed the video mode from Disc to Wii, the game would not boot some times. My Wii and the backup are both NTSC U versions, and my Wii is set to work with my old tube TV. Is this setting just for if somebody has a tv that requires a different input than was available when the disc was produced.

If it's a random issue, then it might be a random result that the one setting never works. If wii region = disc region, then video mode wii and disc should boot the game with the exact same video mode. But there might be some bug in the video mode code, i will look at it tomorrow.

Hey guys, trying to get Super Mario Sunshine (GMSE01) to work with ocarina,

I've tried all hooktypes, with different codes enabled and disabled, but they all freeze at green screen.
Neogamma finds the codes, but the game wont load.

EDIT: I have the same problem with Sonic Adventure 2 Battle (GSNE8P), but with this, it doesn't even green screen, it hangs at the NeoGamma GC Backup Launcher screen, after "Enabled Audio Streaming"

Please note: Both games work without trying to apply codes.

[WiiPower]

You need to set the booktype of the disc to DVD-R or it won't work.

Do you have a modchip? Do you have any working GC backups? Which cIOS do you have? Do you have working wii backups on disc?

Did you try both reloader settings? Is it using NeoGamma's GC launcher?

 

[jimpolsky]
