[Cooler89]

[Maikel Steneker]

Hi guys! I was thinking about trying this out, but I have a few questions regarding the games I want to try first...

First off I am using a NTSC-U Wii with AV cables (because I don't have an HD television).

The games I want to try out are Lego Batman and MarioKart, but aside from installing everything and downloading everything, I don't know what exact steps I need to take to see if I can get them to work (like do I need to patch with WiiFrii, if I do, what do I patch to, etc) so any help on the matter would be definitely appreciated!!

A big thanks to anyone who can help me!!

if you dont mind black and white games, then just patch with the included patcher, burn, and then play them like it's 1955

At least it won't matter when playing Sadness

 

[ralphyboy]

sorry for double post

 

[ralphyboy]

heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
oooooo everybody!!!!!!!!!!!

(I'm new)


TO ALL THOSE THAT GET ERROR MESSAGE: RET 4100.
I KNOW WHY THAT ISSUE COMES ITS BECAUSE AFTER BURNING TO THE (DVD+R) AND THE DRIVE OPENS, DON'T LET THE DRIVE TAKE THE DVD BACK IN (YOU MUST REMOVE CD !!IMMEDIATELY!! OUT OF YOUR DRIVE)

HOPE THAT HELPS

PLEASE TEST AND COMMENT

First the DVD+R didn't work and then i tried that method and suddenly it worked

DVD+R verbatim

Has anyone tried the wii S-video cables, like the madkatz shits? I don't know much about s-video, but I wonder if that would help the black&white. there are many s-vdied to RCA converter things that don't cost much at all.

Hey, has anyone tried Naruto GNT EX 2 with this setup and had success? I've tried a few times and get stuck at green screen of death... I've read under the compatibility list that it should work so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong there. I've had luck with a few other games. And I've tried using Wiifree to convert it to Ntsc-U, but that didn't work either.

Yay! 3rd time answering this question!

1. Get a fresh backup of the game
2. Patch it with WiiFrii TO PAL
3. Patch it with Backup Creator. Burn. Enjoy.

ke guys i changed my booktype succesfully! Everyone with a nec burner needs to update his frimware with a hacked firmware from liggy and dee's . After that you can change the booktype in imgburn. Burnt two DVD+R's succesfully with a changed booktype

Thx! ^^ I still hope that Waninkoko will restart working on the project (if he hasn't yet...) and I think testing the games will make his life easier.

Good heavens, now THAT's what I call a contributing post! Thanks for the updates dazz!

NTSC Metroid Prime wii. Running at 576i for some odd reason. I m pretty sure thats why the top and bottom bars look glitchy. Any fix for this?

 

[KaiUno]

Even if you get that fixed, the game is largely unplayable. Shoot a door, hang around for a minute and a half for the zone behind it to load is no fun, I can tell you. Get a timer and you're more or less screwed.

hey guys! im trying to get the loader to work. i installed the cios wad, dvdx, and patched the rom. im on ntsc component cable, tried bruning on verbatim dvd-r, and verbatim dvd+r (changed the bootype to DVD ROM, or whatever it was exactly) when i burn the disk and burn it, and load the loader in the homebrew channel, it fades to black, then does nothing. i burned a game that was confirmed working on the wiki.

any ideas on what to do?

try not setting your disc on fire. Why would you burn the disk and then burn it?
