So, now that brawl has been released and is on the interwebs, could someone make a dvd5 rip of the game?
for the people who got a wiikey modded system and purchased, or will be purchasing the legit game (I'll get it in a couple of days, it's been shipped last friday), so that we can swap the dvd5 cooy with the legit disc.

that'd be nice. I'd be doing it if I had the appropriate dvd drive, but sadly, my to computers are both laptops

I thought the burnt copy of the full dual-layer disc will work with a wiikey, no swapping with a dvd5 rip necessary. It was only the original brawl disc that had troubles running. Or did I misinterpret?

you got it right, except I won't get DL dvds once again when I have a crapload of DVD+R sitting on my shelf, and with the legit game coming to my house.
And I think I'm not the only one facing this so...

I already have the JPN version running on a DL DVD

I have check this game with Wiiscrubber and Trucha Signer, Nintendo included 2 files called "dummy1.dat" and "dummy2.dat"... its just 2 big files with loads of 00 filling space.

They are 200mb each, Im checking through for more junk files, also I will try this with I get home. I have removed update file(guide how to skip the 15% check), wiiscrubbed it, regionfriied it to PAL.

EDIT: Found more, its loads of junk code in many files. just filling, seems like Nintendo want to make a Dual Layer hoping that it aint gonna be easy to copy.

have you tested with all junk removed? .. maybe if all junk is removed we may be able to fit it on a single layer dvd

Burning it as we speak.

I will try to brickblock another DVD instead.

I'm working on it, seems to be close if I just bypass that freaking update thingy.

EDIT: Shit I freaked out, Bully stopped working for me. But I checked the DVD and I hade put so fat fingerprints on it that the Wii couldn't read it. (Checked other game to so I wouldn't die)
Burning Bricked Block now.

Sorry but nogo... I manage to get "Brawl" screen but then after I press start, Black screen. Have to hard turn off the Wii to get it to start as normal again.

I guess the "Wiiscrubber" won't work to well, also Im using DVD+RWs from Verbatim.
I might try to whip somefiles and see if it works but probally not tonight.

How I done so far.

Wiiscrubber on the release,
Brickblock it with the latest Wiibrickblocker (1.3 r2)
RegionFrii it and then burned it at 4x.

Please no... I rather just be in the shadows watching newspapers flyby.
I think I found the error though, read through other forums that Wiiscrubber just supports Single-Layer discs, thats why its not booting up properly the game.

EDIT: I would like to know if someone with an NTSC Wii, if they do exactly as I done, except to Brickblock it and install that little update.
Will it run then? I remember the SMG game and Metroid Prime 3 where Brickblocker made the games to black on startup. Might be the same problem here? Else we have to wait until a PAL SSBB comes so I can toy with it.

I am not sure if this is the right place to ask this question. BUt i got my wii modded in vietnam last may. I know the chip says 12f629 and it comes with a paper with directions that say wii free. My cousin brought over his legit copy of brawl and its not reading is there a way around this, heard that the newer games arent working on modded wiis

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it
    +1
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
    +1
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    It's always worth a shot
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @The Real Jdbye, I considered that, but i'll have to wait until i can get the eu version in the mail lol
  • I @ I-need-help-with-wup-wiiu:
    i need help with nusspli failed downloads, can someone respond to my thread? pretty please:wub:
