I have a SoftModded Wii with Gamma launcher and cIOS 249 with Wii Version 3.3e (although i'm not sure which revision...possibly an older one)

Recently I SoftModded my Wii and have been running backups fine however lately my backup of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed refuses to load. I can get it to show up in the disc channel and it gets further than the old black screen error I used to come across with all my other backups (fixed by changing book type of +r DVDs) and now it attempts to load for awhile and then flicks a blurry message and then displays there was an error, eject disc and power off your console.
I've tried burning 3 different copies so I'm quite certain it isn't the disc, especially since the same method worked, and still works, with all my other backups.

Could this be because of some IOS or cIOS I'm missing? (I still don't fully understand these)
or My Wii's firmware version?

Also I have a question about HomeBrew channel..
How can I install a new version of HomeBrew once I have one alread installed on there? Do I just replace the boot.dol in the root of my SD card and run Twiilight hack again? Or do you have to do it via the online one?(which i can't get to work) and finally is it dangerous to overwrite an existing HomeBrew install by say replacing the boot.dol on your SD card root.

*EDIT* Okay I used a 3.2 downgrade tutorial on these forums and now Star Wars runs fine! I must have had a missing IOS/cIOS or something somewhere.

root of your sd-card works

as well as putting the dol (+ a .xml, doesn't matter of which app) in a folder of your "apps" folder
-you don't need zelda if you do it this way

Cool thanks for the quick response.. Does anyone know about the other error I'm encountering?
I think I'll attempt to downgrade to 3.2

    @Xdqwerty, Don't use games that have Easy Anti-Cheat as its been exploited many times.

    @SylverReZ, I also heard one of the Prince of Persia games was so unfinished that it required the "24/7 online" drm so a puzzle could be done and the game could be finished. And that when the Ubisoft servers were closed the (cracked) game was impossible to finish or something like that
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, That's extra scummy. Ubisoft nowadays ship out incomplete games like Skull and Bones which was being worked on for nearly a decade now.

    @SylverReZ, i think they have been doing that since late 2000s

    Either that or their old games were unfinished aswell but we can't notice it
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I like that games can be fixed after the fact, hate that it's being abused via beta tests... And DLC... I was a 7800 owner back in the day and loved Impossible Mission, turns out I couldn't beat it because it was actually impossible lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I never knew about it at the time but a fixed version was available but you had to mail in your broken copy lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So that version is semi rare
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @Psionic Roshambo, I have a rom of the ds version of impossible mission
