Hacking Wii Disk Loaders Issues and Answers :

[zerof]

Did you try searching?

Well I did look through before but nothing is accurate enough. I just want to know if SMG and SSBB (J) will work because I'm afraid of the system update.

Yes different region games will work. Force NTSC in the loader settings.
Use DVD-R. I use verbatim.
Run Brick Blocker on the iso file to remove updates.

. One last question that popped up in my head that I couldn't find, if your dvd cd had enough room for one more game, can you burn it on and then choose which game you would like to play?

You can't use a CD. Games come in an iso file which in this case is a dvd image that writes/uses the full disc.. and I don't think it would work anyway.

I have installed CIOS36 rev7 successfully but when I open the Backup Launcher it hangs at the initial black screen.

It has "Backup Launcher Gamma Wii Gator" at the top and a little gecko icon at the bottom. Anyone else experience this or heard of this problem?

Do all your backups do this? Have you tried reinstalling the cIOS?

Have you got a disc in the drive ?

Lol, I almost asked that..

 

[djtaz]

I think thats the standard screen you get when you load the channel without a disc in the drive - very possible thats whats happening.

Try loading it from homebrew and see if that helps

I've removed Custom firmware that I previously had with waninoko's custom firmware remover before attempting this. And I've loaded Cios36 rev7 with the wifi way and the wad way and it works with both.

I always have a disk in the drive but they're all patched discs that I've used with the original loader from waninoko. I'll try all of my backup discs and report back.

I appreciate your replies to my problem.

 

[djtaz]

patched discs are more trouble with gamma

I just tried a 1:1 disc and I get the same results.

It's a PAL disc on a US Wii.

 

[zerof]

Same results? Did you force NTSC?

You're putting the game in before launching the backup channel, right? Just for the sake of throwing this out.

 

[acg12xu]

I have now tried a 1:1 US backup of Star Wars FU on my US wii and I get the same screen.

All games I've tried, I've loaded into the Wii before booting.

Is it possible that the CIOS didn't load properly even though it said it was successful? I've tried reinstalling the CIOS multiple times and it keeps stating it's successful. The only thing that I can see that I've done differently since the first loader is that I installed Tona's Wii Shop enabler since then. However I've deleted even that IOS with AnyTitleDeleter.

This is all from the Homebrew Browser. I haven't messed with a Disk Channel version.

I think it's important to note as well that my Wii won't run the CIOS installer that Wiigator released on his own (It hangs and doesn't progress passed "Switch off if you have any fear". I'm only able to install the CIOS installer that Waninkoko released on 11/14 that gives you the option for WAD or WIFI

Can you try getting an autoboot channel and then see if it skips the black screen with the gecko?

I stumbled upon djtaz's loader and it works fine for me now! Thanks guys for solving my problem, I stayed up all last night trying to fix it. I wonder why the HBC version doesn't work.

Thanks again!

Good to hear.

I really don't know tbh, I just thought maybe it was getting stuck on the config menu for some reason or the menu wasn't showing up properly.

Lol yeah very strange - glad it works and all, but really it shouldnt if the homebrew channel doesnt work ... but as zerof said good to hear its all working and dont let it hear you say it shouldnt work in case it decides your right

Your using boot.elf - your files are too old - get better files with DOL files in them
