Hacking Softmii not recognizing Pikmin PAL game?

[Wiiownzzz]

Gecko BL? I've got to try that! If I can find it....where did you find it?

OHhhhhhhhhhhhhh your talking about geckos backup loader, it only works that way if your tv supports PAL region code or something like that. Someone stated that it worked in their sony bravia plasma...i think.

Do you get the game to work now or not? Or you you have color issues? I don't understand.

It works perfectly on Gecko and Backup Loader.
In Softchip it works without color issues when I force video mode to 480i (with your Toy) OR Set Video Mode using Disc Region (stadandard SoftChip). I could not make video patch work, always get green screen, unfortunately, so it doesn't work in Disc Channel.

If the game runs in the normal SoftChip with correct colors with disc region video mode, everything is fine. The normal SoftChip doesn't do any patching to the video modes, it can only run the game in video modes already present. But disc region video mode for a PAL game would means it runs in PAL video mode, which confuses me.

@WiiPower,
Yes, everything is fine because I found that my LCD TV is auto PAL/NTSC with component cable

Sorry for confusing you

I was confused too until I tested some TV parameters and get Black and White Screen.

Well then, there's no reason for you to use my toy. All games should work in the normal SoftChip with disc region video mode then, if the games are playable through a loader(Sam&Max for example isn't).
