I'm on 3.2 (WiiKey) and can't boot it through the disc-channel, i have to use a loader (NeoGamma).

I'd love to run it the normal way but so far i've burned it 3 times on my DVD-RW and tried different video-modes but unfortunately it still doesn't work through disc-channel.

So which NeoGamma are you using? (I updated to 4.2U with the tutorials in the hacking section). I rather use the backup launcher because I am short on usb-drives.

has anyone tried playing the game with a dvd instead of usb?

Yes, works perfectly with NeoGamma R8 beta 7 (not tested with beta 13 but it should be good too)
Remember though, my wii has a modchip, the first Wiikey.

What settings are you using? I hit timeout all the time. Need help.

I'm using "NeoGammaR8 beta15" to play this game from DVD.
I''ve got a PAL-Wii connected with a RGB-cable and I have to change the video-mode to PAL480i to start it in living colors. But when patching the DVD to video-mode PAL480i it won't start. The difference NeoGamma--DiscChannel is that NeoGamma uses ios249.

I've tried to patch the DVD to use ios249 but "IOS-Patcher 1.1" doesn't work with this Tales of Graces iso

So I will have to use NeoGamma every time i'm gonna play this (unless someone releases a new version of IOS-Patcher that works with the latest game iso's).



@matthewn4444
I guess your Wii is NTSC-U, so all you need to do is force japanese language at the NeoGamma Region Options.
Use NeoGammaR8 beta15 if it's not working on your Gamma version.

 

[matthewn4444]

Hmmm... still getting timeout errors, I will probably get my hands on another version of Graces (want to play so bad >

 

[freed_y]

cannot play via disc channel :
Hardmod
Wiikey 1.9s
Firm 4.0 U

anyone can help me ???

 

[saaye]

That's strange. I have 4.1J, cios249 r14, Neogamma r8 beta 15 and I still can't load the dvd. It gives an "error: no dvd" message. It seems that it can't even identify the dvd

 

[Shenglong200x]

Odd thing with this dump, just for reference...

I don't know if others have got this, but every game up until Tales Of Graces that I've downloaded, even Toshinden, has a placeholder name.
Tales Of Graces has 'Master', which makes no sense, as much as this 'language bug' makes even less sense.

 

[Majin Vegeta]

Yes, that "Master" is strange.
But I only get that name if I try to load it with Dolphin (black screen with 600%+)

But why would it be a "language bug"? The game is supposed to be played in Japan, so they don't have to include the ability to boot it with other languages.

I can run it:

Wiikey 2
Firmware 3.2
Gecko OS 1.9

 

[Raylene2K7]

I can run it:

Wiikey 2
Firmware 3.2
Gecko OS 1.9

through DISC CHANNEL?

(because i can run it too, but only through a loader)


@Shenglong200x
placeholder name? you mean when pointing at the disc channel being at the main wii menu?
I don't have a name tag there, that happened 4-7 times before with some japanese games.

As someone noted earlier:

**Make sure your Wii's language setting is set to JAPANESE**

 

[cubia59]

Thanks for the share.

It's working on my PAL Wii.

d2lite
4.1E updated with Pimpmywii
Cios rev 4 (i know it's old)
and neogamma r8 beta 15

No issues so far, enjoy guys.

So far only USB Loader GX (I tried 2 others, one had 002 error and another just gave me a green gradient screen) has worked for me putting it on Japanese Laungauge and 002 Fix, BUT as soon as I get in the first town as a child and need to take the south-east exit to progress the story my game keeps loading forever and music stops, but loading symbol keeps going... then I got to Hard Reset my Wii.

Anyone else have this problem? :/

Or anyone have any idea what I could try to fix? (I already downgraded CIOS38r15 to 14, didn't work.)


EDIT: Actually got Neogamma working but also the same exact problem when trying to load that area... could this be ISO related problem?

 

[Seansuke]

@Veritech
I'm having the EXACT SAME error, the EXACT SAME issue, and the EXACT SAME MUSIC FAIL, and the EXACT SAME loading loop over here.... coincidence? I think not -.-
Firmware: 4.2U
App: USB GX Loader (latest sofar)
Serial Num NOT LU64+
Error 002 fix: On
Lang: JPN

Well thats interesting, wonder how everyone else got past that then....

My Firmware is 3.2E by the way so it's probably not that and like I said before I used both USB Loader GX and Neogamma (newest I found) and they both have this same exact glitch at this spot in this game. :/

 

[Seansuke]

it COULD be the ISO we have... but the likelihood of us BOTH having the same issue in the same place even with unique firmware + loaders is slim to none. I have no guesses left after those 2 :/. If you happen to find out or I happen to find out a solution, I'll post it on here or pm you guys or something like that... Im tempting to check multiple sources to see if I get the same result.

 

[Link015]

Does anyone know how to get NeoGamma to work?

I have NeoGamma R8 beta15, cIOS version 15, and I tried force setting the language to Japanese but it still won't work. Don't suppose anyone has a solution for this?

 

[shirosekai]

I have a Wii Pal 3,2 and it work on a DVD with Neogamma R8 beta 15, Rev 14, IOS 249


Language : Japanese
Video patch : Yes
Force : Pal 480ip

Could you explain what happens?

Can you get past that part that I mentioned in a post above in the game?
