Hacking Wiikey v1 + 4.2E + Starpatch Region Free Problem

[omninmo]

Hey

A while back ago i updated my wii to 4.2E through a safe updater so I was able to keep my HBC

As expected, I lost the ability to play NTSC games with my wiikey since my console is PAL, but everything else was ok and I just used geckoOS for my few imports

Now with NMH2 I decided to see if I could do something to avoid having to go to gecko everytime I needed to play a NTSC game so I got searching and found starpatch v4.2.6

So basically a hardmodded wii @ 4.2E with nothing but HBC (for GeckoOS and GeeXbox) installed, I had to usa Trucha Bug Restorer to get starpatch running and I was able to get by and apply the 5 region free patches (I touched nothing else)

Here's the weird part... Now Disc Channel properly displays my NTSC games (which it didn't before), but when I go and click to start the game all i get is a black screen.. I checked and GeckoOS still plays the NTSC games fine, and my PAL games work fine from Disc Channel aswell.. it's just the NTSC games on disc channel that aren't working

I tested this with the only two imports I have, NTSC-U Madworld and Naruto 3.. NMH2 hasn't arrived yet so i can't test it but I was hoping to fix this before i got it

anyone could maybe let me know what I could do? should i further softmod the console to make them work? or should i use any other patch on startpatch that I missed? :S

Thx in advance

like i thought, the only thing i did so far was to restore TB to IOS36 in order to be able to run startpatch

of course, i don't know if anything else is missing here so i'd gladly take your help if possible

thx in advance, btw

OK so following the advice of another forum user, i used DOP-IOS mod to trucha IOS35

and then i used anyregion changer to change the video mode from PAL to NTSC with no other settings change ^^

and guess what?

i'm game!

everything now boots fine from the disc channel menu in full color and no black bars!

perfect, just in time for my NMH2 import!

you can lock up this thread! ^^ and thx again for your help!
