I can't get multigame GC discs to work

evanft · 10-07-2009, 08:16 PM

When I try to load the game through the GC Backup Loader 0.2, it doesn't work. No region options or anything. Then, I just get a bunch of static on screen. The game still appears to be running, as pressing buttons causes sounds like I'm going through the menus, but otherwise there's nothing. I can use the d-pad to seemingly switch games at the beginning, but it still just shows a bunch of static. None of the other buttons I press have any effect.

Wii 4.1U
Softmod
LiteOn Burner
Taiyo Yuden 8x DVD-R
4x burn w/ImgBurn

1. None of the images I'm using are pre-compressed, only shrunk by the iso creator itself.
2. A single game on a disc works fine.
3. All the games are compatible according to the list at GBAtemp.
4. The games I have are NTSC. The multigame ISO is set to NTSC.

Gamecube Backup loader 0.3?

I use WiiGator's Gamecube Backup Launcher v0.2 and havn't had any problems and this is a stupid question but do you have cMIOS installed?

Yes, I meant 0.2. I have cMIOS installed, as I can play regular GC backups.

Have you tried a different brand of DVD-R, I recommend Verbatim.

Verbatim is no longer in the business of making good DVD-R's. A lot of their manufacturing is done in UAE or India now, and those discs are of significantly lower quality than what they made before. People need to stop recommending them ASAP.

I'm using Taiyo Yuden discs. Those are the best you can buy, period. Better than Verbatim even when they were still good. It's not a problem with the media or the burner.
