Wii #2037 - Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands (USA)

[berlinka]

I have a Wii 4.1E with WIIKEY. But when I try to run the disc via Gecko (002 error fixed) I get a 002 error (!?!?!?) and with the latest version 1.9.3 I get a green screen. What am I doing wrong?

I have been playing around 30 minutes without any crash so far, using an old version of usb loader gx rev 713, with ios 249 rev 9.

Before this one I tried wiiflow and I got black screen at the begining and uloader with cios 223 and I got a crash in the begining scene of the game.

So I dont know but it doesnt seem to be a protection but something weird with the game because at least with one loader and with chips it seem to be fine.

this seems important... quoting for the new page

I get a green screen with the latest Gecko OS too. I have a 3.2E Wii with Wiikey. Not sure if this works on a 4.2 Wii, but I run the game trough Freeloader (backup) and it works like a charm.

I really think this is a bad rip and if someone will re rip it that it will work fine on usb loaders. This reminds me of Avatar which had a bad ripped version out to begin with and then someone reripped it and it worked fine. It freezes at the same place for me everytime its not random. Even when I burnt the disc it froze at the same point.

...Except people have reported it working, just usually with modchips. It looks just like AP. If it was a bad rip it would play poorly on everything. It's a good rip, it just has AP.

I don`t think it is an intentional protection from Ubi but the game (NTSC- and PAL-versions) does freeze when loaded from a softmoded Wii...

Here is what Dr. Clipper said in the USBLoaderCFG-Thread:

For those interested in Prince of Persia, it has a new IOS detection. It's already been located and patches are being prepared, so just wait for those. It also seems like we might be at the stage that every new game is going to require its own patch, so caution is being taken on this one before release...

Edit: Oh it seems to be an intentional protection after all

Lol, it pretty funny the new protection check, Cios authors are famous, No doubt SMG2 will have this

ok great! I don't really try all that hard to make games work if they don't I just say ok and move on I don't want to ever risk bricking my wii. This game was just ok from what I played anyway might get it for psp instead. Now super mario galaxy 2 is a different story I will do anything in my power to get it to work which im sure everyone else will as well so if a fix is needed for that I bet it will appear quickly.

sorry guys...nothings working fine. I´ve got the wiikey, and i´m having serious sound problems with POP Forgotten Sands (No voice, no title-sound). The game is running but without sound ...it´s stupid

PSP version is a different game. Its not bad but feels like a iPhone/iTouch game.

This release is not even a real NTSC version.

Anyway...

I have been playing around 30 minutes without any crash so far, using an old version of usb loader gx rev 713, with ios 249 rev 9.

So I dont know but it doesnt seem to be a protection but something weird with the game because at least with one loader and with chips it seem to be fine.

I can 100% confirm this method as working perfectly. Am compiling other older builds of GX to see what the highest working revision is with cIOS36 rev9, then will raise the cIOS to see which is the highest working with the highest working of GX... if that makes any sense, lol.

I tried to install Darkcorp and my wii froze at 16% during install. I freaked out because I thought my wii was going to be bricked. It wasn't thank god but im not going to try and install again I don't know why it froze.
