Ok , here goes...

My Wii is softmodded to play back-up games through NeoGamma. I don't have cIOSCORP or any other backup launcher. I'm not sure what cIOS I have installed because I modded my wii ages ago.

I had a back-up of Call Of Duty:Modern Warfare Reflex in my Wii and I was on a virtual console game ( Super Mario Bros 3 to be exact) and I left it on overnight. When I went back on my Wii the next day I pressed the home button and went back to the Wii menu. When the Wii menu loaded the disc channel had recognized my game and i could load the game through the disc channel. Ive only been able to recreate this glitch twice and I'm not sure if the virtual console game has to be Super Mario Bros 3 because I don't have any other games.

If you are able to recreate this glitch please comment or if you have experienced it before please say.

If you have any questions I'll be happy to answer.

reading the disc banners via the disc channel means you must a cIOS patched system menu IOS.

you have some cIOSCORP [now DARKCORP] related material installed in your wii.

Well I don't think I do because the guide I used said it only boots from a loader and also when I take the disc out and put it back in it doesn't read it. In NeoGamma it says at the bottom 'IOS249 (Rev 17)' if that helps.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
