I'm trying to get Baten Kaitos working, so i patched the first disk with "t s g" and the second with "t s f", then I made a single iso with MultiGame ISO Creator v4.0.4F+.

Doing this the game works fine, but the text is all messed up, so I think something went wrong with the patching, yet I'm sure to have followed the instructions correctly...

How can i put multilple games on a disc without use of MultiGame ISO Creator? Just putting the isos inside the DVD? Neogamma will read the ISOS files?

Without? You can do it the way you said, but then you can't play it.

Baten Kaitos 1 or 2? If it's 2, there's only NTSC, so i would suggest to set the wii system language to english. What exactly do you mean with the text is messed up?

The game is Baten Kaitos 1 NTSC
The problem is that instead of the text there is "@@MOVIE_DATAA050@@" "@@CMNSTR_DATA302@@" and such

Just use the latest installer that uses MIOS v10 as base, it does everything the other one does + it's a bit more stable. (if you get random crashes when switching into GC mode, you know what i mean)

I thought you had determined MIOS v4 as base had the best compatibility... did I miss something?

Can you try setting your system menu to english anyways? I have no idea what's happening for you, can't tell if it's a damaged .iso or a region problem.

Are you using NeoGamma's internal loader, right?

I changed my mind after:
- i have seen that my debug output when using patched MIOS also works with v10
- i realised that MIOS does not apply patches when i boot games the "normal" way, i mean the regular way i boot games with the internal loader
- i added a patch to still allow using Action Replay retail disc

Nothing changes when setting system menu to english and yes, I'm using NeoGamma's internal loader.

Also I tried running the patched isos on Dolphin and they work fine, so I'm thinking that probably it's Multigame ISO Creator's fault... maybe a bug of the version 4.0.4F+ that I used.
Unfortunately I have no more DVDs so I can't try older versions for now
 
I'm loving the debugging of backup coppies. I thought there was a conflict with the way things loaded that prevented this?
 
I made a quick tool (with the help of some friends) to change the IOS value on the NeoGamma.cfg file, so you don't need to hex edit it. It's useful for noobs.

It allows you to switch the IOS to be used to these ones:

  • 245.
  • 246.
  • 247.
  • 248.
  • 249 (which comes by default, so there's no need to set it).
  • 250.

Just choose the one you need and press A to apply the changes.

Anyway, here's it: NeoGamma IOS Switcher. I'll leave the fancy icons to you, ppl; I even suck at Paint.
 
Apparently my problem with Baten Kaitos was caused by the fact that I was using NTSC version on a PAL Wii, as PAL version works like a charm.
However, I couldn't put both discs on the same DVD since patching the cd2 of PAL version with tsf results in a 5GB iso
 
Just wondering. . I'm a little confused, do I add the games to the multi ISO program, then use the fstfix on the compilation ISO?

Or do I individually add each game to the program, shrink it, and then click "create multi-ISO" and just create an ISO of that one game and THEN run fstfix and THEN RE-ADD all of them and make one big ISO again?

That sounds way too complicated and silly, so that can't be what you're supposed to do. . .

Anybody able to help here? : )
