Hi all!
So, sfter seeing that Pikmin 2 GC freezes during the credits, and that theres no way to fix it.
I tried the Wii PAL Version, runs fine and smoothly.
But not in color.
Can someone give me settings in NEOGAMMA R9 Beta 50 to make them come in color?
(Pikmin 2 is not fun when you are B&W, because you can't see the Pikmin colors)
Or can someone tell me how to get the GC version working?
---Specs---
Wii:4.1E (But can mod it with ease) (Originally an NTSC-U Wii)
Backup Launcher: Neogamma R9 B50 & B56
cIOS: d2xv6 rev 21006 (IOS 249)
Composite Cables

think you may need component cables or a new tv, there is no ntsc mode on the pikmin disc so you have to rely on the tv to decode the signal

There is a way to do it, my friend has done it, people on the forums have, and other forums have.

Sorry, but Pikmin 2 (Wii) is one of the few PAL games that requires you have both component cables and a TV compatible with the video format.

I would really appreciate it if you could show us how.

...just on a sidenote, is your Wii PAL or NTSC?
Whether the Wii is NTSC or PAL does not matter. All that really matters is the TV being used and whether or not it supports PAL video. It seems that if you use an HDTV, there is a possibility that it will support the PAL video through the use of component cables (although neither of mine do). If your TV supports PAL 480i, then you might be able to get it to work using composite cables. However, this is unlikely.

considering you can get component cables for as few as $4 if you really want to play the game just buy them.
to get the gamecube version working use dios mios lite it plays the game %100

My question was a bit more in-depth, I wanted to know his Wii type to know whether he is running the game natively or not. I have a PAL Wii and a few TV's, some run the NTSC games in colour, some in colour but stretched, some run them black and white. If he'd answer that his Wii is PAL as well as the game then it is natural to assume that he lives in a PAL region, if not, I would say that he has to enable Force PAL in a desired resolution.

dios mios can't be downloaded thanks to SOPA, Fileserve only allows files I've uploaded. -_- what now?

Use ModMii to get DML and Pikmin 2 (GameCube) running off your SD card. If you have a Wii with an older disc drive, you can just install the recommended cMIOS and run the disc backup with NeoGamma.

when loaded from the disc the game freezes at the credits which is only at half the game which makes it uncompletable which was his problem

DML does nothing different, could you give me the settings for Neogamma R56 for it?
I'm having no luck with it, still freezes. Thanks jefffisher

Well, when you load it from a DML, you have to have either
A. A back-up disc in.
Or B. The actual disc.
I HAD the actual disc, but it broke, and I had a back-up, so I'm forced to use it.
P.S. Paid $70 for the copy of Pikmin 2, so really want it to work.

Already did, followed a complete tutorial, and it still freezes, could you put your settings for NeoGamma here?

you load the game from sd card, load the save beat the game and it still freezes during the credits?
i know that method works, if it's not working you need to say exactly what you are doing to cause freeze ups a lot of the stuff you are saying is highly contradictary.

I go to HBC, boot up NeoGamma R9 b56.
Switch to "Load from DML"
Search for it.
Click "PIKMIN2 for GAMECUBE"
Load up game.
Click "Begin"
Load save.
Goes to credits, and when Louie is looking out from behind the grass, it freezes.
