Okay...
1st: I have 3.3U. Should I update firmware? I've heard something about Wanikoko Updater?
No; stay at 3.3. If you update to 3.4 or 4.0 you might lose functionality.
QUOTE2nd: Backup Launcher Gamma (with #002 fix) is giving me the error anyway. I'm attempting to run a Japanese Backup (with Region Free toggled "Yes" on Rebooter options if that's important.) I'm running off cIOS installer from v7 (need update?)
Try updating to rev8 or rev9. You may get some compatibility problems with rev10, but it should still be working with rev7 regardless. Did you properly install the 002 fix?
What is the game you're trying to run?
Link5084 said:What does 1:1 mean for compatibility of Wii backups for the Backup Launcher?
1:1 just means a perfect raw copy; not multidisked or anything. Just burn the image at 4x or whatever your recommended DVD speed is.

I have a question myself regarding the Gamecube Backup Launcher:
I'm running on a 3.3 NTSC Wii, and my Wii backup launchers have been working perfectly for forever now. I'm currently using cIOS249 with IOS36, and have revisions 8 and 9 installed.
However, the Gamecube Backup Launcher 0.2 isn't working for me. I installed the MIOS needed to run the launcher, inserted a GC backup I burned onto a Sony DVD-R disc, and it seemed to be working fine until it prompted me to pick what region I wanted; the screen that says "Press X for PAL, press Y for NTSC", etc.
For some reason it's not detecting my GC controller or something, because the launcher is just sitting there doing nothing no matter what button I press. Is this a MIOS problem, or a controller problem? I've reinstalled the MIOS several times (one time using the Wii Backup Launcher support and one time without it), and I've even tried switching out controllers but nothing seems to work. Any ideas?
Update: after reinstalling cMIOS8 and MIOS rev3, now the launcher loads and asks me to put in my game. I pop the backup in, and it gives me a "Failed to read DVD 263". If I try to launch it with the game already in, it just freezes without asking for input and the screen gets all screwy and displaced and whatnot.
Anyone have any ideas on what this could be? Help would be greatly appreciated.
