You can load games outside of your region with NeoGamma.Evil-Popeye said:GizmoDVD said:I'm trying to play New Super Mario via NeoGamma 9 release 1 and it keeps going to a green screen. I says in NeoGamma 'NeoGamma R9 Beta 1, IOS249 Rev 17'. Do I need to update?
Your trying to load a game from a different region than your wii's region. Backups are not region free, you have to use the same region as your wii.
That doesn't always work and you have you have to set it to the region you want to be forced in the settings, it's always best to get an ios from your region rather than another and trying to force it.tattar8 said:You can load games outside of your region with NeoGamma.Evil-Popeye said:GizmoDVD said:I'm trying to play New Super Mario via NeoGamma 9 release 1 and it keeps going to a green screen.

I thought region free only referred to bought games. I've never heard of region free backups. Are backups region free now tooleondmsmith said:Pretty sure you can get region free games, they come up as RF in WBFS Manager, also you can use preloader to play out of region games and wii ware, also what do you mean by an IOS GAME? All games require IOS.
That's true. However, about 4.9 million of those threads are about the anticheat protection that kicks in at random times after booting. Considering Gizmo's game shows a black screen, he isn't suffering from that problem (yet).BobTheJoeBob said:...
That's the thing, he's trying to run an ios GAME, and game's on the wii are not region free.
Say what? What the hell is "an ios game"?
Anyhow...I think you don't quite understand what tattar's saying. Games (both backups and originals) are restricted to regions (PAL for Europe, NTSC for America, NTSC-J for Japan). Your wii has lots of different IOS'es inside, and games need a particular one to run. Those IOS'es are different per region.
Custom IOS'es such as Waninkoko's cIOS rev17, however, are region free. They can run games from any region. You do need to specify, though, which region the game is, because the regions have different outputs. If your TV can only receive NTSC and the game is from a PAL region, the game will - from a technical view - work. However...your TV will receive the PAL data, find out that it can't play the data because it's in a different format, and will show you a black or green screen.
@leondmsmith: you are confusing wii games with wiiware games. These can indeed be "region freed". This is simple, because the region free-ing is just changing a few internal bytes. And indeed, preloader (and priiloader) can use hacks to simply ignore that region setting. However, the principal of the output still remains: if your television can only receive a certain video mode, you must force games that don't automatically use that mode to use it.
TrushInfoor you know you could always search first, since theres been 5million threads on how to get this to work.

Anti cheat protection? do I need to patch the iso to fix that? Is it only anti cheat or also anti pirate?Wever said:That's true.

when you say IOS, do you mean http://wiibrew.org/wiki/IOS or ISO the disc image file?GizmoDVD said:Still no luck. Apparently it is a NTSC IOS and others report it working fine. I put my retail copy in and Neogamma loads it up just fine (though, 5 minutes into the start screen it gives me an error message).
