Hacking Questions regarding region games

[Gammazeth]

Hi all, so I just hacked my wii and threw a bunch of backups and one of them was wii sports resorts tho it was an ntsc-u game and my wii is European, so when I loaded it on USBLoaderGX the banner was black and when I clicked on play, I got kicked back to the Homebrew channel. I tried to force the PAL60/PAL50 mode but without luck. How could I make ntsc-u games work? (the dump's good since it's working on dolphin).

If you installed priiloader you should have had the option to disable all region locks.

...if not, investigate priiloader... https://wii.guide/priiloader.html

Hello.

Your PAL Games are working ? If it is only the NTSC Games then it is maybe only a Matter of the Settings.
You have the latest Release ofthe USBLoader GX installed please -> v3.0 r1272.

Some NTSC Games on a PAL Wii maybe need to adjust some Ingame Settings.
Like the Video Mode and/or the Language.

for Wii Sport Resort NTSC please try to set

- Video Mode - Force NTSC
- Game Language - English

Thank you.

Your NTSC Games/ISO´s are ok ?
Did you checked you NTSC Games/ISO´s of "Correctness" ?
https://www.gametdb.com/Wii/Search

and with a Tool like this:
http://esrg.sourceforge.net/utils_win_up/md5sum/

I am pretty sure you have transferred the Games/ISO´s with WiiBackupManager.

If you like you can try to change the Game IOS for "Wii Sports Resort NTSC" in the Game Settings and try 248 please.
That is the IOS that the Configurable USBLoader uses on my PAL Wii for the Game.
Also you can try to disable the emuNAND Save Option "Nand Emulation OFF".

Good Luck.
Thank you.
