OK, for the PAL System Menu the offset of the string which AnyRegion Changer v1.1b mod05 searches for is:
4800128C48001C692C0300004082001C

The closest hit for the USA System Menu is relatively close, and before it, with a slight difference just at the end of it:
4800128C48001C692C0300004800001C

I'll assume that there's a tiny difference at the very end for the USA, and that's what I'm looking for. For the codes for the PAL, it seems that it has taken the values for USA verbatim, so maybe putting the PAL values into the USA one proportionately might work:

Here's the reverse codes in the right offsets for USA:
[Disc Area Check]
version=289
offset=81377AE4
value=0x4082001C
[Disc Area Check]
version=289
offset=81377B08
value=0x41820010
 
Would it be possible to block ALL updates with PreLoader ?
We now have disc updates blocked, but the online update is still possible.
Seems to me if the right offset is found it can be added in the hack.ini.

That would be very convenient for all those with little brothers and sisters, wives and ignorent girlfriends.
 
Should we place it like

[Disc Area Check]
version=289
offset=0x81377AE4
value=0x4082001C

or without that "0x" in the start of the offset..??

Hey,

I see you use the sys.dol for getting these codes...

How you do that?
I want to make some too

Thanks,

get the sysmenu.dol wich is /title/00000001/00000002/content/10000046.app and copy it to the root of SD and rename it to sysmenu.dol (precisely) then just run the menu patcher by aquilino or wiicrazy

That one right?

Okay thanks.
I think I got to re compile the source every time for each new code I want to make...?

Hmm that one doesn't work with preloader, if you don't have preloader installed you can use that... (that one doesn't require you have sysmenu.dol in the root of the sd)

if you have preloader you can use the menu loader stuff I modified but menu loader's patches are a bit more complex... (http://www.tepetaklak.com/data/menu_loader_recovery.rar)
of course you can use the original too but that will not work with preloader...

currently working on a patcher that have the option to read the system menu in three different ways.. 2 and 3 should be compatible with preloader I guess...
1. using nand es_readcontent calls
2. reading from sd sd card
3. using isfs read calls

You could just ban the servers of the update server in your wireless....

Probably stops system menu from not recognizing the other region discs... region free part that doesn't deal with video modes to put in another way...
 
When i run the preloader .25 dol it shows the warning screen but thats it.It does not install. I can hit the home button to exit to HBC. please help
