There aren't any framerate problems, are there? Either the game is experiencing some framerate problems or the captured video posted is skipping frames.

Again, that was my crappy video. Not the game itself.
Ah, thanks. I just needed a clarification.

Probably. There are already a lot of tools that make it possible to play GC games region free, so this will probably be region free as well. If I'm not mistaken, launching GC games from homebrew makes them region free automatically.

Would it be possible to save different region saves on the same memory card?
AFAIK you coudnt save different region saves on the same memory card using Freeloader.
Sadly I only got one mem card :/

You're right, that could be a problem. Memory cards for GameCube are not that expensive though. Assuming you play English games only, you would only need a PAL and NTSC-U memory card. They're about 8 euros for 2043 blocks last time I checked, so for 16 euros you have all the space you want.

Well you people are stars! Though I already have a modded GC, it'll be nice to stick it in the bedroom and keep it there and play GC games on my Wii (I'm chipless).

Will help report what works and what doesn't when this is released.

will you have to patch the MIOS every time, or is it a one time deal?

Just one time (except if you update your Wii and MIOS gets replaced).

PS: Latest MIOS is v8. It's the one I'm using for testings here.

I take it there's also going to be a new cIOS when this is released? Is it possible to put the 2 programs together (Wi Backup and GC Backup)?

Hmmm I'm looking forward to test it out and take a look at the source code.
So... you managed to do it by modifying MIOS, changing the DVD read and syscall functions to enable the unencrypted read in GC mode, or am I wrong?

Yes it is Region Free, I was able to play Naruto: Gekitou! Ninja Taisen 3 (not going to try 4 because I already have a legit version of it

)

And do you have a PAL and a JAP memory card?
Or does the Japanese game work on your other region memory card?

So great, keep up the great work!

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • 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!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too

    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards
