I can't try cfg loader 249 unfortunately cos i dont think itll fit on my usb stick and i can't format this HDD to wbfs right now so I need it to boot fat32..

how does one remove the update partition? I usually just convert my .isos to .wbfs drag-n-drop with wbfs_file, haven't used any of the other wbfs managers

the 249 also supports fat32 with newer cios versions which you have
no need for 222 abymore
you just need to replace the .dol file ofc it will fit

you can use wii backup manager and in the settings say game partition only to scrub it down completely

Well i already wrote that in another thread (that got closed
smile.gif
) however:
IF anyone wants to play the game in german you can change message_all.dat (extract the file with wiiscrubber and open it with a hexeditor) at offset 0x35 to 02DB80 and for Italien it´s 070DC0 then just replace the file on the disc with the edited one.
There is a second time Spanish and French in it too but since you can already choose these it´s not really needed

thats because of your settings the config.txt should say partition=fat1 for it to work correctly on fat32, i have it setup like that so it should work

It works perfectly for me, no freezes or anything using Configurable USB Loader with a SDHC 8GB card inside a SD Card reader, so I basically use it as a USB thumb

So if we get the larger version, 7.46gb (or something close to that), do we need to remove the update partition? I am wanting it on a disc, not usb loader.

Question for those who still burn DVDs.

When I change the booktype for DVD+R DL, do I change it to "Normal" or "DVD-ROM"?

I just burnt a disc and I was wondering why I kept getting an error. Looked at the disc; it was DVD+R.

thanks fudgi, but *sigh* just froze again using 249

so hopefully removing the update partition is the secret?

I have used regular DVD+R before, & you have to put them as DVD-ROM. I would assume DL would be no difference, but I'll search it up & edit this post with a link to help confirm this.

EDIT: Here is a link. Confirmation is in Post 3. They say to do this with Nero, but it works the same for Imgburn.

Also remember the Layer Break.

Sweet thanks. If I had the same number of DVD+R DL as I did DVD-R SL then I would have just experimented but I'm on a limited quantity.

so everything is working now?
Works great now! You have to only copy the game partition otherwise it will always crash on the Baby's Cry cutscene.
